It is quite incredible how people have totally lost any sense of perspective about the club. He would probably make a decent signing.

This with bells on. Bothryd would be a great signing (this is also the opinion of a Cardiff friend of mine, who is more qualified to speak about him than we are).

Bobby Zamora, and no doubt there would be many more. The problem is obviously the cost, not their willingness to come to The AMEX I am sure.

Exactly. We can't afford him. Hence why Gus and Tony aren't going to be signing him, and are going for more realistic targets.

Hasn't delivered since joining us but as someone said earlier he has a decent record in the Championship. Supposed to be on £60k - go halves???

60k for Bothroyd?!?! I hope QPR haven't done a Portsmouth and forgotten to put in relegation wage drops!

Who the f*** do some people think we are?

We're being linked to a player who is a big strong center forward, and scored 18 goals in his last championship season, which was only 2010/11, hardly years ago.

Yet still people wouldn't want him here. It's staggering. Who on earth do these peope realistically think we're going to be signing.

Christ.

:clap2: top post, I think some on here think we are on a par with Real Madrid. JB would be a top signing imo.

No thanks at that money. We would be better-off pushing the boat our for Bobby. Are you serious? £60k/week?
I have no inside knowledge - this is based on rumours at the time we signed him. He was touted as an England international available with no transfer fee to pay and to be honest, with all the shenanigans going on at the time, we were desperate to sign him.

Put it into context - I know of one player on around the £20-25k mark when we were in the Championship, Taarabt widely reported to be unhappy with his £25k once we got promoted and Rob Hulse reported to have doubled his wages when we went up. It could be bollocks but it could be right.

The same BELLENDS that were slating the possibility of Beckford signing last week. Some JCLs no doubt, but mainly just plain f***ing deluded.
 


A young Jay Bothroyd was responsible for one of the funniest red cards I have ever seen in the Premier League. A real sunday league kick out, I have been searching for it on youtube but can't find it. Does anybody else know where to look? BBC match report below.

BBC SPORT | Football | Premiership | Norwich 1-1 Blackburn

I was at that game. Comedy sending off, happened right in front of us by the corner flag.
