I say give it a rest,Stern is done at this point,to many other youthful options,plus he cannot even make the starting 11 of his club team,only injury to some of the other fowards will allow him some playing time as a Warrior......adding another set of aging legs to this team is not good medicine

can't agree with yuh there boss, while Stern isnt in his best form by any stretch of the imagination i still think we can't be so quick to forget his contribution to our team and he still seems fit, at the very least he deserve to train with the team and get ah bench position.
a man who has the ability to strike with both feet from near or far, in the matter of a quick turn or a trap and snap shot situation... i dont think we can really fairly leave him out.
Perhaps not start, but he's still Stern John. Say what you want but even in his terrible form, im still lured to keep faith in him. His ball control can be superb, his ability to holdup a ball on the edge of the box is also valuable.
I personally wanna see more of Connell and Scotland has proven himself a definite threat.
And hey, havin quite a few strikers in the squad will create a nice little competitive atmosphere, it'll help push the player to do their best at their clubs, in training and on the pitch for the red, white and black.
