Remember him?  ;D

Sven always liked him.

That would be a good move for him.

Thats a brilliant move for him.  He hated Turkey didn't he?  I remember seeing some blogs from him on here in the past about being lonely etc.

Excellent, glad he's found a club at a decent level. I hope he does really well, he was one of my favourite players when he was here. I thought he was going to be world class after his season in 01/02. It would be a massive shame if he did a Stefan Moore.

Hmmm... would like to wish him well but don't want Leicester promoted as they always beat us. I hope his goals fire them all the way up to 7th place.

With Naughton and Davies in on loan too they should move up the league pretty swiftly.

I beg to differ.... Darius is exactly what Halesowen Town need at the moment to get them out of the impending brown stuff!
All the best DV, Sven obviously fancies you ;-)

With 22 caps and 6 goals for England I dont think he'll ever be classed as quite the under-achiever that Stefan Moore is.

Fair play to the lad. He had a horrible time at Turkey. I'm glad he's back on his feet again.

Scored an overhead kick and 'inspired' Bradford to their victory on Saturday.

Really? Hadn't heard that...surely you wouldn't mock the lad's ability to inspire a result, even now, (even if at that level)?
