31 years old sigh.

Think i would rather had kept El-Abd

 

[Rugrat]

Dunk that much out of favour?

 

[BUTTERBALL]

This would really be an absolutely dreadful signing. Not only is he 31 and injured, he is completely substandard when fit. I really do wonder if Burke is having some sort of meltdown.

Please Albion don't do it.

 

[dougdeep]

This is Naylor don't forget, he often puts 2 and 2 together to get a headline and his arithmetic is awful.

 

[midnight_rendezvous]

No. That is all

 

[Mackenzie]

[Mackenzie]

A bit like Stephen Ward. If he's not completely crocked, he'll be a solid signing.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

Good to see Notts Forest are in for him. They need a few players

 

[Quinney]

Don't know too much about him, age is against him but then Upson has been a great signing towards the end of his career as was Bridge. Having said that we do have an ageing back four and I'd have thought a younger replacement with pace would be better.

 

[Super Steve Earle]

Don't worry lads. If we have really expressed an interest someone else will come in and offer more than us or Reading will decide if we want him, they should be keeping him!

 

[Dave the OAP]

Is there any chance we can sign someone who is fit?

Holly Willoughby?

 

[hastings]

Read this yesterday. Believe Ipswich to be another club looking.

 

[Bold Seagull]

Decent player. Can play as a holding midfielder as well which he's done quite a lot for Fulham as well as centre back and full back. Good signing (if fit).

 

[Albumen]

If fit he's got bags of experience, let's not scoff at it. Save the money for where we need it.

Exactly what I was thinking. Baird seems a bit of a poor short-term option to me.

 

[severnside gull]

Short term he would be an excellent addition for a team serious about promotion rather than just giving youngsters a chance because they are young (and inexperienced) or because of an accident of birthplace.




.........which is why either Reading will keep him or he will go to Forest or Ipswich.

Here's hoping. We can do better IMHO.

 

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

I don't think he will be that baird a signing.
