Striker situation for cup-tie - HibeesBounce.com

All I can say is, let's just hope Steven Fletcher stays fit up till the Rangers cup-tie...

For the cup replay at Ibrox we have Colin Nish cup-tied, Benji injured, and Damon Gray loaned out to Partick Thistle. Clayton Donaldson is struggling to make the subs bench since Mixu arrived, and Ross Campbell, well, I don't know where Ross Campbell is.

If Fletcher gets injured who is going to play up front in the most important match of the season ? It is good for Damon Gray to get some regular first team football, but we have left ourselves a wee bit short. I suppose Dean Shiels could be moved up front, but I would rather he played on the right where IMO he is at his best.

Hopefully Fletch will stay fit, but it was just a thought..

We were talking about this last week,Thought Benji might make an appearance this week at some point just in case.......

Benji speaking on the fishy site saying he'll be back to 100% fitness in a week

You're right to be concerned GM, I hope he returns.

a fit Benji playing with the correct attitude would surely be a threat to the aging Rangers backline...

hopefully Mixu has had a word in his shell like and tried to get him back on track

Hopefully Fletch isnt injured and Id imagine Benji will be back by then going by what hes said. If not Shiels could be played, or even Zemmama if really needed a striker (though would rather have them in midfield with Fletcher and Benji up front!).

TBH guy's, I would expect a fit Fletch to play up front on his own at Castle Grey Skull, and a 5 man midfield. Just my opinion.
