Yea we could but doesn't look to be the caseIf he's a free agent can't we theoretically sign him whenever we want or can you only register players by the end of today?
I reckon he'll be signed up tomorrow... when do the club ever 'announce' they are done on deadline day?
Baker would come back in a heart beat I'm sure
Not really fair that though, Grendel.If he's paid what he wants. Regarding "sky blue Carl" it's somewhat amusing a Portsmouth fan was saying what a great guy he is and how he is Pompey through and through and even his kids wear Portsmouth track suits around Coventry.
Sound familiar?
Hell of a commute from Solihull.
Not really fair that though, Grendel.
His kids must be young I would imagine, what with him in his early 30's. He said they were City supporters and I am sure they indeed were and probably still are. Kids are kids though and I'm sure when their dad went to Pompey they started supporting them too. It's what many kids do.
I don't see any problem them being Pompey AND City fans.
Dads are supposed to be your hero as a kid. I'm sure any kid who's dad is a professional footballer supports whatever team there dad is playing for at any given time and wear the colours that their dad currently wears with pride. Nothing odd in that.
Keep the faith. There hasn't been a Carlbakerday today but there is sure to be one tomorrow.Well no carl baker day then

Did I hear/see that he has just become a dad again? If so, I'd be surprised if the Indian League was a 'goer'. If he wouldn't uproot from Solihull to Pompey, then I can't see him making that trek with a new arrival?
The reason people bang on about him is a) he scored a few goals in L1, b) he clearly enjoyed playing for us, and he always played like he cared (which we haven't seen much of in the last year or two), c) he was good on social media, and for me the biggest of all, d) he was unfairly treated by Pressley. The combination of all of those points creates what we have today - a clamour for his return. FWIW I'm in favour of him coming back, but if he didn't it wouldn't particularly concern me.
Fuck me, when will this ever end?????????Keep the faith. There hasn't been a Carlbakerday today but there is sure to be one tomorrow.
In fairness he probably gets the kids' clothes either for free or at a big discount - come on he ain't so rich he's going to turn down free/cheap gear for his kids, they cost a lot of money to clothe these days, you know!If he's paid what he wants.

So why isn't he here?Baker would come back in a heart beat I'm sure

I've been crying into my 'Carl Baker 7' pyjamas all night. Oh cruel world.
It's sticky from before the window closed.Tears aren't that sticky.
"There is no link with Carl Baker. I speak with Carl regularly and we spoke not so long ago and we spoke about one or two things that might be happening for him.
"I have a lot of time for Carl and what he did for me last time but I think there is something else on the horizon for Carl this time.
