Heskey hatred

As I said in my previous post, a rumour emerged yesterday that Rovers had bid £2million for former England, Leicester and Liverpool forward Emile Heskey, now plying his trade at Aston Villa.
It turns out the club is denying the rumour, but it hasn’t stopped people talking.
It amuses me how much one player can cause so much nationwide hatred.
On The Rovers Return’s Facebook page, I posted: “Heard this one at work yesterday but didn’t want to say anything in case Telegraph were doing something, but I see it’s hit the rumour columns today. Heskey £2m anyone?”
Here are the responses:

Bryan Bayfield: That’s what we’re missing right now. Goals and excitement
Shaun Haworth: He wasn’t worth 2 million in his prime!!!! Let alone now..:-(
Richard Boardman: Exactly type of player alladyce will resurrect! Also will be good for niko.aslong as he doesn’t try step overs he’ll be a good signing for me.
Vicki Bell: Duh, duh, duh, duh E-mile Heskey!! His name fits into the song, so he’s fine by me!! xx
Shaun Haworth: Would rather them spend 1.5million on beattie, think he would score more goals.
Bryan Bayfield: an’t name you a better player that would cost £2 million, you’d need an unknown for that. Still, that doesn’t mean that Heskey isn’t gash.
Dave Walsh: oh great heskey and roberts up front just what we needed maybe we should consider buying someone that can score more than twice in the same season

Ah the excitement of the close season. Transfer gossip. Ins and outs. Comings and goings.



I tend to slag Emile Heskey off when he plays for England. But if Big Sam was to swoop and bring him to Rovers in January, I certainly wouldn’t complain…
