I've heard he is due to join the squad on trail.

[CJ_covblaze]

Heard the rumour too. Very unlikely imo.

 

[skybluebeduff]

Too many rumors today..

 

[kg82]

Oh, I was under the assumption that was just a rumour started on the Connor Thomas's Dad's thread just to make a point on how easy it is to start a rumour and people go for it (not that that's what I'm saying has happened)!

 

[Nick]

As in the bald one from palace?

 

[Greggs]

As in the bald one from palace?

Yeah, he is 33 now. Would still score shed loads at this level

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

As in the bald one from palace?

Think so. Absolutely no way he's joining. Would have been on at least 30k at QPR.

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

More shite

what trail are they doing ?

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

So looking at twitter it's stemmed from @dawkinscov1980 who also funnily enough claims to know we're going back to the Ricoh.

Oh!

In the know? Or Billy Bullshitter? I know which one I'm thinking......

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Looks that way. You know if you're going to make up a rumour at least make it a player who's wages are realistic for our current predicament. Happy to be proved wrong though.

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

He'd be on the treatment table more than the pitch, no thanks.

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

He would have to be on pay as you play as he is very injury prone.

 

[rob9872]

He would be good value on what we could afford to pay him if we only got 15 games all season. Far too good for this level. Its like the Kevin Phillips thing always hoped we'd get him and he got older and kept scoring but we never did. Think hr played for just about everyone except us.

 

[ccfc1234]

Would be a great signing if we could load his goals bonus to the hilt and keep the basic realistic due to injuries that could be a great bit of business. Would say no chance normally but due to his age and family ties in the midlands it could be a possibility.

 

[ccfcway]

averaged about 15 games a season since 2006

 

[karl27]

Apparently signed for Sheffield Wednesday

Further evidence that promoting the youth as a policy is a theory rather than being an actual policy. Ryton will be awash with zimmer frames.

City have signed one player over the age of 30. This after criticism for their 'lack of experience' last season. No matter who they sign it'll be criticised on here. Too old, too young.

Yeah that's what I thought too

 

[LB87ccfc]

I heard someone had it on FB who knows AJ missus. Still dont believe this one though

 

[wingy]

Yeah I hear he misses around five In six.

 

[skybluedan]

Hahaha he used to clean my footy boots at brum

 

[ccfc92]

huge signing if true, but would be more of a last 20 mins player if we are lucky.

former England international though, so hopefully could do the business at league one level.

Even a "measley" £4K a week still sounds good to me converted to £200,000 per annum me thinks, at the tail end of a career
