Presuming it happens, but I don't think the Snooze would be saying it so openly if it weren't.

What's your opinion on where that leaves Hirst?

Does this mean we will have twin strikers? Bishop and Piggott upfront?

It’s already happened he’s already updated his Wikipedia pages it states
Colby Bishop is an English football player who plays for Portsmouth
I would guess this is factoring in expected money from selling Curtis

Sounds good to me - will be even better when it is confirmed on the OS.

Andrew Moon has tweeted that he's awake, so he's expecting an announcement.

25yo who returned 14 goals and 4 assists from 47 games last year for Accrington.

Linked to Huddersfield, Preston, Peterborough and MK Dons. All of these teams are ones I respect when it comes to being able to scout a decent player so that is encouraging.

I don't think this excludes the possibility of Hirst coming back too since Bishop and Piggott are only 2 strikers and the target is at least three.

Bishop is a permanent transfer too so there are still three loan places available.

Would seem to be a very good blend with Pigott on paper. Hopefully it works the same way on the grass as well!

Decent business if we've managed to acquire those two for just the loss of Harness.

Would Piggott and Bishop up front allow more time for Curtis to act as a play maker and create chances as well as being the third threat? He seemed to be better at being 'flashy' and seemed to get annoyed when he was given an actual job to do. Just wondering if that may return him to his best role?

I would say Piggot and Bishop are replacements for Hirst and O’Brien. We have not signed a replacement for Harness yet. Same could be said of Tyler Walker and Hayden Carter too.

This suggests to be our third signing will be pacey rather than anything else, and I wouldn't suggest that's Hirst.
