Day 73

More reports came in for the potential Olembé temp replacements. Max Harrop is a definite no. Arsenal youngster Zak Ansah is more of a striker, but could possibly do the job—if he's willing to play for us. Cooper would be a decent option, but it seems we can't loan him at this stage, perhaps because it's outside the transfer window and he's based in Scotland rather than England—I'm not sure, and no-one will answer me.

I put in a loan offer for Ansah, and asked my scouts to take another look at him (Woodhouse isn't the most reliable source on player quality). I need to be quick, since we've got two matches in the next week.
