Agreed, i'd be very pleased if we had him back. Still only 29 and has the experience as well as the physical presence we desperately need. Be happy with a few months of him on loan if not possible to sign him.

Still very much in MK Dons' plans according to one of their fans.

Agreed. Our priority right now is a focal point straight down the middle. That's not to say we need to play route one football, but we do lack a bit of a presence up front. With that in place, we've got plenty of options as to who plays alongside him, whether in a 4-4-2 or 4-3-3.

Very expensive and equally injury prone. Can't help but think having such a large proportion of our budget gambled on Vassell probably won't end well.

Is it the same person who started this rumour the same person who started it last season?

My next door neighbour said this to me too while he was weeding out the front. Must be true, surely.

Anyone want to photoshop him into a Saddlers shirt? :D if you do, I'll run the story!

Just seen on the beeb that Lee Barnard and Jonathon Forte are being shown the door at Southampton. Don't know if they are realistic or still under any sort of long contract but worth a look at? Always thought Barnard was a good player, just seems to have been shunned at Saints.

Forte or Barnard loans would be ideal?

Heard that Heskey had 2 pints of Bitter Shandy (true professional thinking about his fitness) and a packet of Chilli Peanuts (good energy source) in the Sir Robert Peel tonight.
