I dont think wages would be the issue.. surely Rotherham arent paying him that much.... it'll be the fee....

But a 20 year old Australian nobody on loan seems a more likely scenario...

... I'll erase Le Fondre from the memory bank...

(I'm going to go and dream of a press conference where Ken Bates is sat in the middle, with Eric Lichaj and Ryan Bertrand on one side, and Nick Montgomery and Adam Le Fondre are on the other)

You couldve let me enjoy the thought of Le Fondre for longer than 10minutes, surely, crude.... I've come back down to earth with a THUMP now lol...

Chris Herd, hey? Yet another Australian... Hopefully he's in the mould of Patrick Kisnorbo, Harry Kewell, and Mark Viduka.. Not Neil Kilkenny, Hayden Foxe, and Joel Griffiths lol
I've heard him described as the new Paul Okon.....

you know, as crap as Paul Okon was at Leeds (and he was crap).. He was a great captain for Australia..... I think he was just one of those guys that when he pulled on his national team's shirt he moved up 10 notches.... I was really dissapointed when he didnt work out for us...

So dont rip on Paul Okon!!! :shoot: :wink:

Or he could just have been the best of a very poor bunch of Aussie footballers. Looking at the facts I think I may just be onto something :wink:

We had some decent players around that time... Craig Moore (Rangers Captain), Brett Emerton, Harry Kewell, Mark Viduka, Lucas Neil, Kevin Muscat (Millwall Captain), Tony Vidmar (Cardiff Captain), Tony Popovic (Captained Crystal Palace to the Premier League)...

I'm not saying he was a great player, because he wasnt, but he tried his heart out for Australia and i wont hear a bad word said about him!

When he played for Leeds, his nickname on here was "NOKON" - all he ever did for our team. Utter gash.

I vaguely remember him in one game I haven't a clue who it was against, I remember these huge tree trunk legs as he stood over the ball at kick off, from then on in it just seemed like the balls kept flying over his head and he ran back and forth.
Sorry Silkster.

Isn't he just a better version of McCormack though, when what we need is a Becchio?

Only West Ham and Leicester would pay the wages he'd be after.

Was talking to a Villa fan about Lichaj and saying how well he did,he was saying that Villa have 27 pros on their books but 9 of them are young/inexperienced players and it looks like there won't be many more arrivals,so he thinks only 2 of the youngsters will be allowed to go out on loan and he'd be surprised if Lichaj would be one of them even though 6 of the squad are full backs, he'd expect Lowery to go plus 1 of the young mid-fielders,but also said that McLeish as give no indication of who he rates amongst the young uns.Don't know what the problem was with Bannan(other than he didn't want to go out on loan) but every Villa fan I talk to really rates him.
