I think he should have seen more game time whilst he was here, and always thought of him as a useful squad member. Can play in a few positions and weigh in with a few goals.

But for all the shite he's come out with since leaving us I'd say his bridges are well and truly burned. He's also not really good enough to risk the aggro the deal could potentially cause.

He was average at best. Don't even think about it. Next thing you know we'll end up with half of the blose squad - and their manager.

oh....

IF McLeish is going to raid his former club I'd rather it be the keeper & centre back

Why no option for:

"Decent player, not the sort of quality we should be looking at though?"

Substitute the word manager for player.......

Wasn't quite good enough to be a regular first teamer with us before we sold him and nothing has changed.

Correct. And he's also a much better player than Hitzlsperger.
However, I cant see him coming back here. He'd be a laughing stock rather than a hate figure.

MON always seemed to play Gardner out of position (right back). Not a bad player but couldnt get into our 11 then and wouldnt now.

Mcleish made it clear on TALKSPORT this evening that he wont be going back to blose for players.

His upcoming legal case against them will ensure that there wont be any deals to be done on players.

Its simply not in their interest to refuse to do business with us, they are going to want plenty of our sub standard players over the next few years.

He's deeply average.  But none of the options on the poll.
