And with that Simms chance.... (4 Viewers)

Simms and BTA are both good championship footballers. I don’t buy this “Simms would rip the division up if he put his mind to it” stuff. That’s the reason he hasn’t. Drive to bust a gut is just as important as ability. I actually think Asante has more potential and always puts it all in. Not to say Simms doesn’t have ability - he’s proven that he can get goals at this level.

He's no Roy Wegerle... But he's our big powerful teddy bear...

Is that the Roy Wegerle who scored 9 goals in 53 games for us. No comparison really, is there?

I was using the gazelle little figure of Roy who just seemed to glide across the pitch with skills that most of us could only dream of...

But thanks for the stats...

Hmmm.Gliding to little effect.

I’m perhaps being a little harsh. Wegerle’s goalscoring record seems pretty reasonable before arriving at Coventry. As seemed the case with a lot of strikers back in the day. Signing for Coventry at one point seemed to be like the kiss of death.

But who needs Cantona when we’ve got Wegerle?
