Oster is the Answer

AS THE SAYING goes, desperate times call for desperate measures. With the heat on now on Lennie, new blood is needed and fast. Stuart Campbell apart, the midfield is lacking bite. I suggest that the club tries to bring back John Oster.

He has plenty of experience, and despite two nightmare spells since he left Blundell Park is still a quality player. John would provide the necessary width in the middle of the park

Oster achieved celebrity status during his time with us and deservedly so. He reminds me of a young Kingsley Black, always trying to do the simple things right.

With the crunch game against Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday, I believe the signing of Oster could prove to be the first step to Lennie remaining in charge.

New players are needed, and where better to start than bringing back an old favourite! Lennie, please bring John back and restore some balance to our sinking ship!
