echo

bluebelle · Dec 12, 2005

A previous post on here said that the echo had reported that Tilson was looking at a League 1 striker from the west country who was amongst the goals, i may have the answer

MICHAEL BRIDGES

He may be on loan at carlise, but he is still contracted to Bristol City and is amonst the goals

C&#39;mon you Blues · Dec 12, 2005

he is in my book a terrific talent. However that was years ago and he's so injury prone I don't think it's worth it.

I think its a case of throwing as many names into the ring as possible and one of them must be true! so heres my go - Karl Hawley!

You heard it here first!

Bristol City released Tony Thorpe (ex QPR) yesterday by mutual consent.

Not sure how he is doing at Ashton Gate, but maybe is homesick to be nearer London?

Bridges is not the answer, too many injuries unfortunately.

Murkey_Mouse · Dec 13, 2005

He also an northen man, which rule out Tilson's buying "Essex & London" boys only policy.

We don't want Tony Thorpe, nowhere near the talent he was 4 or 5 years ago.

Thorpe was released by Swindon.

It can't be Bridges as:

(a) when the story broke he hadn't scored for Carlisle and certainly hadn't been "banging them in" for Bristol City

(b) its well documented he wants a permanent return to the North-East

The striker HAS to be IMHO either Cureton or Fallon, with the only other option being Jevons at Yeovil but that is very much a long shot.

I'd say the word 'January' is more apt.

Speculation, speculation.

I think we should all just sit tight and wait to see what January brings, if anything...
