I thought he was there on trial?
Great guy, not too sure about the football. Will always be remembered for sleeping at the airport, that smile, and that shoulder at OT.
Legend in his own right.

Ran into an old friend who is a Stockport fan last night who told me.
He was quite giddy about it. He said "He'll frighten defenders in the Blue Sq. to death"
Somehow I have my reservations about that.

What a fall from grace. City to Blackburn to pay-as-you-play five divisions down. What happened?

He'd walk into most football league teams, no way would he have to slip all the way to non-league.

Apparently he lives near there, knows Hamann from their time here together and is purely training with them at the moment. There's an article on the Stockport website about it

That confirms he's training with them. I would be extremely surprised if he gave up lower Prem/Championship wages to play for them though.

He frightened me to death everytime we put him on the field.

Just been presented at Fratton Park - 1 year deal from nowhere. Back where he always wanted to be, I guess.

It might just suit him. He should never have left in hindsight.
