    Stokes has got goals in him even though he is with hibs, Hooper has goals in him even though he's at a near relegated lower league english, skippy had goals in him when at a diddy motherwell team and look at what he done for us, so why is it any different for Hooper and Stokes, I'd be over the moon if they both sign

    Fortune and Samaras are simply not regular goalscorers, we need a forward who can get us 20/25 goals a season. Stokes and Hooper are proven goalscorers, so I'll go with Neil Lennon's judgement rather than Mowbray's anyday of the week.

    If we were 442, reckon stokes and hooper would bag a ton of goals

    I think you are right. A Stokes/Hooper partnership would be awesome.
    I would sell Fortune/ Rasmussen - and keep Sammy and Murphy as back up.

    I can't see Lenny signing Stokes.

    Hooper will do well for us, but we still need a box office name up front for a season or two.

    i think that would be a very potent strikeforce indeed:50: with plenty of energy and mobility, they would cause spl defences all sorts of trouble

    who is gonna hold the ball up in that forward line?? hooper scored 19 goals last year in the championship despite missing 19 games annd with a relagation fighting team. stokes scored 1 goal with spells at sheff utd and crystal palace in the same division. better teams than scunthorp. stokes isnt good enough. thats been proved when he has been outside the spl. 3 goals in 38 app for sunderland. 0 for arsenal. thats why he coudnt find a club to take him last summer. most strikers can score in the spl but just because they can score with teams outwith the old firm dont mean they will score more with them. old firm play against 10 men behind the ball for 90 mins and teams play like its a cup final. remember killen and riordan who both scored plaenty goals for hibs. stokes isnt and never will be good enough to play for celtic...

    If Fortune is converted into a winger and takes the place of Maloney, then there is your hold them up man.

    Stokes has scored 23 goals iin our leauge hasnt he, which to me prvoes hes good enough to play in our leauge, unlike killen, stokes isnt a big fat bus, hes actually mobile and will contribute even if he isnt scoring, riodran is a whole different situation

    killen had the same score ratio as him at hibs. stokes aint quick. isnt very big. isnt good in the air. cant hold the ball up. so what is he gonna contribute if he aint scoring??

    hes skilful, has enough space and links up better, and i belive he will score, at least he has scored goals unlike murphy and hes only 21/22 i think
