There was a time though, when he looked like he was going to be the best centre forward of his generation. Then Liverpool bought him. Ha.

He was exceptional in that game we lost 6-0 (2010?) to Newcastle. One of the first signs that the Lerner era wasn't going to be the rip-roaring success we all hoped it would be. The loss did however, extinguish any slight ideas the owner may have had about giving KMac the job full time though.

The one bad thing about having owners who do decisive business very quietly is that there’s a paucity of juicy gossip to really get your teeth into.

Indeed - thankfully he didn't make any mistakes with the people he did appoint. Well not very many.

Linked to Fulham keeper Marcus Bettinelli - can’t bring myself to link to the Daily Hate though.

Daily Heil surely? What with their love and support for Moseley's black shirts

Buying Carroll would at least ensure we get VFM from our physio and rehabilitation centre, although re-signing Richards could be the cheaper option.

Didn't someone on here say last week we had a medical booked in for today?

Yes. Lest we forget.

As we are looking at players with experience of the premier league - Andy Carroll is available

He may be getting on but Carroll is not going to want to come here to mow the lawns at BMH.

Based on today’s BBC rumours I wondered whether an offer for Henderson would be worth it for our Andy Townsend vacancy.  Decent human being and leader but not sure he is a good enough footballer.

I thought exactly the same when I saw the article.
Would be a great signing for us.
Always comes across very professional

Henderson would be a fantastic signing for us at this stage. Given Klopp called him a world class player recently I can't see him being released.

There was a time when it used to be Villa that ruined strikers...

No chance Henderson would come to us. And if the contract fallout is over wages and term, I'm not sure we should be outbidding Liverpool on either front.

Excellent player though.

I think so.  Wild guess, but is it that Tim Iroegbunam kid from Albion?
