Heard a woeful tale from my old Da' last night. He's been playing golf with some SJP staff and there were big rumours flying around yesterday, which they were under strict instructions not to spread (yeah, right)about Fowler.

Apparently he's on the way out, and the Arsenal, who've long been interested, don't want to sell to make way, so Wor Bob has put in a tentative bid at #15m.

I'm SURE it can't be true, but you guys seem more on the pulse than a few back room boys at SJP.

Whadya reckon? Bollox or what?

Complete and utter Bollox. Why would Wor Bob spend that much on a player he doesn't need?

Wrong Robson for this rumour I think....

It's being reported (rumoured!) on other sites that BRYAN Robson has put in a bid for him.....

Thank the lord. Didn't think Alzheimers could hit Wor Bob that quickly. As you say, why would he pay #15m for someone he don't need?

Seems like some SJP lads blowing off wihout foundation.

BTW - can't see him signing for the OTHER Robbo either, can you? Unless he's given up all hope....

F****r has been appointed Team captain at Liverp**l today so I guess he is going nowhere.

F*****r is the best English centre forward, I'd take him even if it meant selling Shearer.
