Think we certainly need a better song for JCH that we can boom out. Something like Rory Gaffneys. Nichols has got to start scoring more to earn a new song in my book You have an old Nichols song in your book? Yep that book being the Old Testament

The lad needs to change his tune if he wants to score goals

This season is make or break for Nichols. If he can't get in the starting 11 before Smith and make a big contribution to the team, when is he going to realistically? What's more as I understand it he's out of contract at the end of the season, his performances over the rest of the season will determine whether that gets renewed or not. No-one doubts his ability as a football player, we just need to see more goals, assists and chance creations from him to justify playing him on a regular basis.

Perhaps another manager can see another position in him. It was mooted on here a while ago that a few seem to agree try him in a more supporting, attacking midfield role rather than an out-and-out striker. His stats don't make for good being a forward. It's hard to keep saying he has potential but I'm ever the optimist.. whilst still having a foot on the fence 🤔

Even if he scores ten in the league this season (and that's the bare minimum a striker should be doing) we should just see that as a tiny tiny pay off from having him here for three seasons and say thanks but ta ta. We can't waste any more money on him just because he suddenly decides to do his job after 2 seasons. There are better cheaper players out there.

Tom is decent on assists but does not score anywhere near enough goals, both our loan strikers look more dangerous to me, and obviously JCH is number one choice. I would consider letting Tom go in the next transfer window if another club makes him an offer.

I would consider letting Tom go in the next transfer window if another club makes him an offer. I have to agree with that. He's had so many chances, it's getting silly now. He is a decent player but he doesn't do the job he's paid for. Having said that,GC seems fairly keen on him, selecting or bringing him on in nearly every game. So perhaps he, like DC, is convinced there is something better waiting to burst out.

Unfortunately more likely their very rare B side "cow's arse / banjo" That was on his second record. The first B side was "6 yds / Barn Door"

I've noticed Smith has started recently, maybe Nichol's time for chances to prove himself is running out?

It's a miss-tery. Oh it's a miss-tery. I'm still searching For a goal.
Is it a mystery, to you?
A shot, wide of the mark A big question mark In history.
It's a mystery. To me.
Apologies to Toyah.

Tommy Nichols has been less than spectacular in the Quarters, however when he does get given that shirt by the Manager surely he should be supported otherwise we are simply assisting our opponents. I have come to that conclusion after being a former critic of him.

What has he done to change your mind, certainly not score goals....

I believe that he has gone some way to addressing his poor form of the last two seasons. But, he has much more to prove.
