    I would imagine if he's been told he's free to find another club there would be no price consideration. Norwich would benefit from getting him off their wage bill for the last year of his contract.

    Could be an attractive option for us. He did ever so well the back end of last season and fitted in a treat. Even if no first choice with Huds and Turner holding the CB spots, I'd play him in a heartbeat if either had a problem.

    I'd take him for the reassurance that our squad has a bit more depth alone. It's gone quiet on the transfer front.

    Had a good spell with us in fairness and didn't do much wrong. Decent back up if he comes but we should be looking for better than we already have at this level.

    I thought he did well when stepped in for Huds, MM was rumoured to be interested in him but maybe he has someone in the pipeline already...

    I have heard criticisms of his distribution and the Norwich fans said he was a bit wild in the tackle but saw no evidence of the latter while with us.

    While no better than what we have he would certainly bring experience and squad depth if no better options (at the right price) available. Also, cannot harm his game to have a former cb as his boss.

    I would take him provided his wage demands were sensible. If not then Donnie certainly couldn't afford him.

    He done a job for us and we were thankful for that, he looked quicker than both Huds & Big Ben but not sure if he would be more than a squad player.

    If the money side was okay then I'd sign him.

    I think that Mm doesn't seem interested means he must be negotiating for a higher quality target. I'm sure we'll see at least 2 defenders added before the window closes.

    I read Liverpool were looking to loan Andre Wisdom out, he'd easily be the best right back at our club if we signed him IMO.

    I think I read he was going on loan to Wigan. Could be wrong though.
