Rovers see Sharp shooter Billy as the answer

Doncaster have their sights on Sheffield United striker Billy Sharp as they face up to the desperate need for goals to stand any chance of Championship survival.

They have scored just eight times in 18 League games - half as many as Nottingham Forest, who have taken their place at the bottom.

Manager Sean O'Driscoll is certainly looking for firepower and midfielder Brian Stock agreed about the urgent requirement.

What Donny need is someone like Windass.

Can't see him going either. Especially if Stokes has gone.

Apart from Beattie that would leave us Henderson (not scored many, or looks anything special) Webber (doesn't score enough). So Sharp is the only suitable partner for Beattie.

Stokes is apparently back in the squad.
I think it'd be good for him, they create chances and if he can get his confidence up. He's certainly not scoring for us at the moment (though he would have if it wasn't an OG on sat)

Wasn't it Sharp that set the goal up for Squinny?

Yup, he was also waiting for the ball had it not been turned into the net by Youga.

Sharp always looks lively anyway. Definitely our second best striker.

 

[TONYBLADE]

cant see that happening at all...!!!

They need a striker. but they can't have Sharp IMO.
He may not be scoring at the moment but when he does I want them to be for United

Say's in the paper (Daily Star i think) that they've failed in a bid for him.
