That's because... he actually DID sign for us in 2008 scoring a mighty one goal in 12 games to starve off relegation for us.  Oh wait, that's not quite how it went... we got relegated and released him from his contract when we dropped to league one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
If wed kept Howie.. 187 Posted August 26, 2021 Now..... this has me searching my memories... I seem to remember about 15 years ago, a poster (i cant remember who) being obsessed with us signing someone who was either a striker or centreback and then playing them as a box-to-box midfielder... can anyone else remember this??

Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 3,703 Posted August 26, 2021 Marvin Ducksch has been linked every summer since Farke arrived. He actually joined Werder Bremen yesterday, presumably as Sargent's replacement, so I guess this one will continue to rumble on given our recent penchant for signing their players.
