According to the new daily Albion blog, there is a "rumour" that he is returning to England from America, and The Brewers and Pompey are interested in signing him!! He is now 31. Any thoughts on this? It does go on to say that the likely hood of this happening is remote though..

Beat me to it claymillman ! The article also says Portsmouth are interested, so I guess with the wages they are able to offer the chances are remote. There is also a suggestion regarding the 31 year old ex-Norwich and Blackpool midfielder David Fox who has turned down a new contract at Colchester because he wants to return nearer to his family home in the north west, that north west is Leek in Staffordshire. Personally I think the journalists have looked at that and added 2+2 to make 5 ! Both remote I suspect. Kallum Higginbotham seems to have gone off the radar, anyone know what happened there ?

We are just grovelling about in the dark really. That is not a criticism, because JFH says nothing, and plays his cards close to his chest. This is a good thing, and he will probably totally surprise us when the time comes.

When are we off to Holland ? I wouldn't be surprised if Jimmy has a couple of Dutch aces up his sleeve !

I personally don't think it will happen, unless they just go for a few days training. That doesn't mean that there might be other Dutch signings of course.

Agree with pretty much everything above and this is yet another "just a rumour" curiously spread by an unknown journalist somewhere, with nothing else to write about.
I can't see an ageing has been striker entering Jimmy's thoughts at this stage and don't forget there will be little movement at our level for another five days, as it is the 30th June when player contracts officially run out.
I would expect plenty of noise in the transfer market after that, as players look to be in place with a new club for the first week of August?

Perhaps Jimmy has a view that he can work on Darius on the striker front.
