It seems we are interested in Jermaine Easter.

He's a reasonably decent striker, who could actually do a job in this league but it seems he isn't interested in leaving Millwall.
 

Notts County are interested in Jermaine Easter, says Millwall boss Ian Holloway.

Holloway says the Magpies have sent a scout to watch the 32-year-old striker, who has only started two league games this season.
But he insists Easter is still in his plans at the Championship club.

“He could have gone out on loan and I’ve not let him go out on loan,” said Holloway.

If any deal included a fee and a transfer, I personally would rather see it being spent elsewhere. It seems that is what Ian Holloway is seeking but what price would you put on Jermaine Easter? If the rumours are about us having money, it would be better spent on younger players.

Thoughts?

his record does not scream sigh him to me, tho he did okay for mk dons a few seasons back.

i do not know all that much about him tbh but it would be nice to sign someone who could score. i would knock it if we did sign him but my thoughts are that we could probably avoid using what cash we have on a player who does not bring confidence.

If it was a good price, perhaps.

I would hate to see what ever we do have wasted on a striker who might not get results. I am sure abbott and derry know who will fit in, so if they opt for Easter he will get my backing.

I'm not sure as to whether we already have our quota of 30+ year old players?  While I am happy to have older players, Gary Jones has been sublime so far this season, however I worry that it would destabilize us in the long run if all these players suddenly retired/got injured.

 

specifically with regards to Jermaine, a trial by wiki shows he seems to have been out on loan a lot, and has been to a fair few clubs. As @liampie says, doesn't seem prolific, however anything seems possible with the Derry effect (i.e. Thompson's hot streak)

I would take him, he could do a job here. League one striker for me so yes.

YES PLEASE!!!

YES PLEASE!!!

you seem very keen and excited @tonyhateley, how come?

you seem very keen and excited @tonyhateley, how come?

Because I personally think he would be an excellent acquisition.

He could do a job for us, but iv also heard about a blackstock loan which would be better imo. Loads better player aswel.

Wasn't we 'in' for him a while back? Seem to remember rumours of it somewhere a long time ago. Not really my cup of tea if we're paying for him!!!

 

Blackstock has said no to Sheff Utd due to L1 so we've got no chance!

 

Give Cassidy a run now he is fit or even better, Harrad and Thompson!

Ok, Jermaine Easter...

 

As @liampie said he is hardly prolific, and looking at his "trial by wiki"... it seems that when he goes out on loan to a club he does well enough (not scoring enough) to warrant a permanent deal, but then after a season he is out on loan and moved on again.

 

That to me says no thank you..

 

I would at the moment give Harrad and Thompson the nod up top.

 

The money hang on to, there might well be some high loan wages to pay, come January in the bid to fire us to the Utopia that is the Championship..

Well Derry dismissed the Blackstock rumours in his presser yesterday

Has all the signs of Danny Haynes part 2. No thanks. Next please....

I don't see how we need another striker tbh, we could with a permanent / semi permanent Mclaughlin style player and also being picky we could do with someone with a bit of guile from central midfield

I think he could do a decent job for us. If Derry believes he will do a job for us, Mr Easter will have my full backing.
