A very oblique reference- but the Heff is back!

On Sky sports news it said that Bristol City were recalling a striker. Hmmm... I thought to myself, could Heffs be coming back, now you've confirmed it.  You've made my day Red Baron, hopefully he'll do well and finish our season off nicely.

Oopps,I mean Rovers!!!

This is exactly what has been worrying people, sod seems intent on letting our best striker go, but now it is obvious we need him post Billy.

C'mon Heffs   , hit the onion bag today and prove you are worthy of a place in the Rovers squad!

If anyone doubts he's still got it, see the well taken goal here:

Another interesting point (as well as JJ's VERY close range goal) is that Mr Swarbrick has clearly got as far as the section of the Laws where it says \"if an attacker is fouled in the box it's a penalty.\" Shame he hadn't read that far when we played Palace.

Three minutes as a sub for Hayter will prove nothing, except to show heffs he has had his time wasted.

Yes, if you want a striker with the razor sharp reactions of a 3 toed sloth, i`m your man  

[Barmby Rover]

You do know that 3 toed sloths only come down from the trees once a week to have a crap Filo, are you sure you want to be compared?

[MrFrost]

I wonder if sod has been told by the powers at be to recall him. His interview last week said he would loathe to bring him back.

I think what he said was he would \"be loath to\" bring Heff back, i.e. he'd rather not, rather than he'd \"loathe to.\" At that time the scale of Sharp's injury was not known and Heff was doing well at Bristol Rovers. Don't forget that the loan spell (as with Spicer and Guy) is for the player's benefit as well as the club's. SO'D is enough of a pragmatist to realise he can't go through the rest of the season with one fit striker.
