Yes you would.
Nah, just dont want to watch him anymore. He played a lot of games for us, and there are things that just get on your tits about certain players. We got the best form of his career out of him for 4 months at the end, but what about the rest of it? Even then, it was all about the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Just another mercenary who only gives his best when it suits him. Wouldnt get on with Paolo at all. Once again, no thanks.

In Simon Cox shadow but the second name on the team sheet every week. Vitally important to us and would walk into our current side.

I know you love him.
He was always in someone elses shadow because he wasnt good enough to have enough impact on his own.
Put him up front with Ben Hutchinson, and guess what, it was utter shite.
Not an important player.

He was a key player in his 3/4 of a good season. Not shit but not brilliant for most of the rest of the time.

He was a player who scored 4 (or 5 goals one game) then within 2 weeks, he came out with "I am not confident". Utter bollocks. We saw the very best of him in 1 season. No thanks, let's look somewhere else.

His time here was not a happy one which is part of the reason he cleared off at the earliest opportunity

I know you hate him. No shame in being in the shadow of Simon Cox - many strikers past and present were/are. Cox was the best striker we've had since Fjortoft. Anyone would struggle upfront with Ben Hutchinson. Clearly an important player at the time.

So he went to Leeds, where they really really hate him? Anything specific from his time at Swindon? Honestly dont hate him myself. Just theres no way Id want to watch him play for another season.

Good player for us giving 100% every match,only soured for me by the public knowledge of his move to Leeds during the playoffs/final.....it probably cost us promotion because he was dire in the final and the Paynter v Leeds home/away would have probably given us the edge v Millwall. Would like him back...but he is to good for LGE 2.

I think he's the sort of player which isn't universally liked anywhere for whatever reason. Championship level is too high for him though. Fans never really took to him, only got a contract offer when he'd had a brilliant season and wasn't valued until then. But the past is the past, he wouldn't be any good second time round I don't think.
