The evidence of our last four or five managers.

Most of our managers have tried to find a better option... Harding, Lynch, Rents spring to mind... even right-backs played at left-back, which says a lot about what they think of Mayo, IMHO...

I can see what you're saying, but I think you have to be realistic about the calibre of player we're in the market for. If you're looking for a player in his mid-twenties who has a proven track record and all but guarantees you 20-25 goals a season, well then JOIN THE QUEUE, cos every club in the League is after one of those. And in the Albions current position, we're about as enticing as a dental appointment for a root canal.

Yes, at 32 Forsters best years are behind him and there's no resale value. But if we can get a couple of seasons good service out of him, then he's WELL worth investing £125k in, IMHO. I'd much prefer that then hanging our striking options on some unknown 22 year old paintsprayer who's been dossing round the Rymans for a couple of years.

Spot-on...

At 32 his best years are behind him???? Get real, Henry has just signed for Barca for £16M, he's 30. I know he's a different class, but 32 is not too old.

the only one i know is likely to be signed by Millwall later this week?

Depends if our offer is better than theirs.
I hope all those who booed his every move 15 months ago are happy.

Who was booed? when?

When we played Ipswich (Currie) at the end of the 05/06 season (we won 2-0) quite a few of the fans booed him every time he touched the ball, throughout the whole game.

right so thats settled then , i trust this man for some strange reason

Whing,Forster - just need Bertin to put pen to paper and either some benchwarming but supersub goalkeeper or Sully to prove he is worthy of at least being Kuipers understudy and we are LAUGHING innit..
Cheers Braders, i never let you down.......:thumbsup:
