    People, even footballers, don't live in a vacuum. If his wife/partner or kids (and I don't know if he has either) were settled with jobs/school in Manchester or he had family in the area, why would he move here for at most a couple of years?

    So, because I can’t be bothered to read all the stuff about Norwood when he’s not our player anymore so I don’t really care - Is pines the only credible rumour/expected signing at the moment?

    There's a rumour Benson might be off.

    Can’t believe anyone would want Benson with his injury record. Got to only be a loan….?

    He could do with a half season loan somewhere

    Do we know he's definitely come back? Where's that restaurant? Could be an old pic from the US.

    Apparently it's from the Falco Lounge in town, and to be honest, it does look like one of their tables and it appears he was sat along the glass which faces into the library. It could be from when he was last here though to be fair.

    Not really. Pines is the only one who has been spotted so to speak.

    I read a few reports on a fans forum that suggest whilst he is an athlete he has a mistake in him, but we all know what fan’s forums are like.

    Playing more than half a game would be a start. Got to feel sorry for him with his injury record. Must really take its toll on, both physically and mentally.

    There's a bit of a gap in that from Aug 22 until when he was first linked with us. Interestingly, I read a forum last week that suggested he finally seemed to iron out a lot of his mistakes last season, and actually started to fulfill some of his promise. I can't for the life of me find it now though.

    Donovan told me he was "pining" for Barnsley.

    Should be able to see if he's any good next week then. Chickens recon he's dropped off this season

    According to some on Bradford's forum, he's not had the best season and it's our fault for unsettling him in the summer.

    It was a blessing in disguise for us as Roberts is a fantastic keeper, albeit he may only be here for this season.
