Yes, Maynard but a few things need to happen before West Ham will allow him to leave, firstly a compensation package between Maynard and the Hammers and they also want to bring a striker in before the bidding war can start.

plenty of time on the striker front. Also if we are bringing in a player like maynard, i would like to see some players leave. Earnshaw permenantly, and maybe jarvis on loan, lets send him to a league one club and see if he can cut it at that level.

Hope we get maynard. A proven goalscorer at championship level in a poor Bristol city side. :ayatollah:

But the problem is we keep hoofing the ball upfield, wouldn't get the right service unless we change our style of play
