    Speak for yourself, most people have a knowledge of football that stretches beyond their own football club or league.

    I've heard of him and he's pretty decent, although I seem to remember him being touted as a top future player, but he never made it. Could be because he was on a decent contract at Palermo and stayed with them in Serie B rather than moving to a bigger club.

    Well that's not promising, hopefully he's over his injuries now.

    Maybe we're playing the percentage game?

    Any club will have a given percentage of the squad injured, so if we buy a few injured players, it should reduce the odds of the others getting crocked.

    That was back in 2009 that he had the surgery to fix a cardiac arrhythmia. He has certainly missed a lot of games looking at wikipedia.

    Interesting.

    Both Newcastle and Sunderland were sniffing around but nothing came of it.

    Italian second division.

    Hope it's a better standard than the German second division.

    All the top clubs were after him about a year ago, no point looking into his past injuries, snoddgrass was never injury prone! ...this would be a quality signing, id take him over rhodes, easily!

    I still think we will be in for a loan player who will play where Quinn does you above formation.

    Very quick and knows where the goal is. Not massively clued up but I believe he's a penalty taker as well?

    Wait a minute.

    Isn't he the benefactor in the Spanish translation of Great Expectations?

    You've seriously never heard of him?

    Palermo are back in Serie A after just 1 season of relegation. Its like saying Kevin Nolan mustve been **** cos he played for West Ham when they got relegated.

    Does anyone fancy listing all the brilliant players who have played a full season in our Championship recently? Or what about Quinn? He played in the 3rd tier last season, get rid.

    He's not prolific.

    Interesting signing if true, i cant see how he'll fit what we need other than he's lightning.

    My guess is that the op was an ablation. Catheter or 2 up to the heart and and a zapping of of the offending node(s). Lots of athletes and non athletes have arrhythmias.

    I agree, probably followed by heat or freezing treatment to destroy the area that was causing the abnormal rhythm.

    I think my grandad used to grow them. Are they the big purple bluebell ones with drooping petals?
