Where's Joe Bennett ?

I thought he was back ?

Maybe he gets his hair done on match days ?

Practical shouts are definitely Wiemann and Whittingham. How about Johnson at Preston?
We are in the Championship not Conference ... Well not just yet!
Johnson in fairness has been very good for Preston and scores goals. Whitts is good at that level and scores goals. Weimann is pants.

Johnson has scored 4 in his last 30 odd games for Preston.

So Ronaldo-like when compared to flabby.
Whittingham, yeah, always looks like he knows what he's doing whenever I catch him.
Weimann, nooooo. I drift back to Spring 2013 and think "yeah, he was fucking good, man", but then I recall all the subsequent times walking back down Trinity Road thinking "how on earth does he keep getting picked?".
Have back? Pretty much anyone sold pre-Lambert.

Do the have bigger goals in the lower leagues?

I would love Barry to return. Crouch is also a good shout.

Crouch would piss that division.
So would Abbey.

Speaking of pissing, what about James Collins (striker) and Samir Carruthers?

No chance of Barry coming back, as another poster mentioned on a different thread, Barry is still fit and playing well in the prem. he has never had any pace to lose so I think he can play in the prem for at least another 2 years.

Steven Davis is s decent shout but doubt he would drop down a division, more likely Myhill would and be a decent keeper for us in the championship.

Realistically why would we want anyone back who has been here before other than those of proven pedigree (who won't come anyway) lets get some fresh faces in to change the negativity around the club.

That said if Barry really did want to come back and also Crouch and Davis I wouldn't say no.

How's Weimann doing?

Football wise no idea. He's bought a house round the corner from my brother - made a right pigs arse in renovating the exterior imo!

Sheffield Wednesday unless he has snuck back in without me knowing (which is quite possible)
