He would have scored today
BBC Radio Wales pundit Nathan Blake revealed on air that he has been told the Bluebirds were looking to bring in Andy Carroll on a pay as you play deal...

Spent overpaid force, I don't think he'd keep up with the pace, it would help our strikers if the wingers looked up to pinpoint a blue shirt arriiving in the box before crossing into empty space.. which happened a few times.
Would 100% take him as long as we got a younger striker in too.
Do pay as you play deals actually exist? I'm not sure they do
This is a rumour started on the radio this evening by Nathan Blake, who said someone he knew at the stadium gave him a tip off. The club were contacted and stated it was totally incorrect.
What the **** is the Pay as you play bollocks? Why do people always go on about it, does it actually exist?
No, we do not want a huge centre forward that would encourage us to lump balls forward. A Chopra style forward would be good.
There’s more to his game than just lumping it forward

99% of the time it only exists in the imagination of football message board people.
what footballer would agree to potentially no pay if they had offers elsewhere?
I can remember Andy Carroll himself , at Newcastle had a contract that was publicly described as "pay as you play" , but it was still 20k a week basic pay, but with massive appearance bonuses (35k If a sub and 70k if starting).
If Carroll arrives hoofball will probably return. Not for me.
Can't believe some are saying no to Andy Carroll, a former £35m footballer with England goals to his name, who played well for Reading and West Brom last season. Mental. If he comes to us on wages similar to what he was on at Reading, ie considerably less than what Max Watters and Mark Harris are paid, it is an absolute no-brainer, as he is better than those pair will ever be put together.
Yes he's been injury-prone, no he's not getting any younger, but bloody hell, beggars really can't be choosers.
I'd have no problem with him. He'd only need to play 15mins a game for us. He doesn't need to start. With 5 subs it's a different issue these days too. Just bringing him on would scare the defence which we're not going to do at the moment. It'd be good for the squad and the younger players too.
