Why? He’s nearly 35
He's on a free and better than what we have.Originally Posted by Henry Hill
We just singned that west brom defender as well.
No, I’d rather we look elsewhere. He’s thirty five in January, I reckon it’d be a desperate move to sign someone of that age who has only scored one Premier League goal in his career.
forest offered him a deal and he turned it down apparently
he knows how to score
did well at Bournmouth before Forrest, but that was 10 Years ago now
I would hope we could do better than 35 year old Lewis Grabban
Obviously I'd love it if we could sign a young player who scored 15 - 20 goals last season but it's unrealistic. We have no money and the free transfer market will be limited in this area.
168 goals in 540 career appearances is not shabby by any means.
We aren't in the Premier League and his Championship record is excellent. Why do you find it so difficult to say something positive about anything the club does ?
That isn’t saying much though!
True.
I think people are getting a bit panicky, Im sure he'll come up with the goods soon.
There'll be plenty of loans available shortly.
Just have to wait.
Let's just keep out fingers crossed that it's not another Oumar Niasse or even an Eddie Johnson!
Add Rickie Lambert to that list
We signed Lambert a few years too late. Him and Adam Lallana tore us a new one in what was I think Malky's last game in charge, a 3-0 home defeat to Southampton (Boxing Day?). They were 3-0 up in 27 mins and just cruised in 2nd hear for the rest of the game. The pair of them looked awesome that day
We sign a lot of players a few years too late
Grabban came across as an absolute grade A bellend in that Sunderland documentary a few years back. I'd be surprised if we're in for him.
Hopefully the days of signing players whose best days are long behind them on lengthy contracts are gone for good.
If we did go down this route of bringing in an experienced old head, who can help our other strikers develop I'd like to see it on a short term contract, so there still hungry enough to perform rather than offering one final payment for their pension plan
Would feel like a panic buy.
Malky had one more game after that. Sunderland I think.
He didn't. His last game was the 3-0 defeat to Southampton. David Kerslake was in charge for the Sunderland game.

Blimey. Callum Paterson scored 4! We were in for Grabban that PL season weren't we? Didn't he mess us around?
