    Ticks a lot of boxes. 13 goals so far this season. Very experienced, excellent leader, has all the qualities of a top target man.

    Basically he would bring all the things we are crying out for. Our lads would seriously benefit a lot from having him in the squad (especially Bradshaw).

    Plus his cult status would increase revenue

    Only some will laugh it off? Not all? Not absolutely everybody?

    I think even if we were in administration we'd do better than a 35-year-old fourth-level striker who was ***** even in his prime.

    You know what, I think you might be onto something ... pair him up front with Emmanuel Mayuka ... honestly believe those two would be unstoppable ... unless you had a tank (or a McDonalds)

    I absolutely love Adebayo Akinfenwa.

    For his size, he's done well to have such a good career and at 35 he seems to have hit the form of his life.

    Would I have him at Oakwell? not a chance. Doesn't fit the bill in what we need in the slightest.

    Imagine the water displacement in the bath after the game. Archimedes would have a field day.

    The KFC Big Daddy Box for starters.

    After that he's on to selection boxes.
