Allegedly, it used to be some weightlifting bouncer bloke called Boyd according to other interweb places...Riviman wrote:Sorry promised I would not divulge .jaffka wrote:go on then, male or femaleRiviman wrote:Let you into a secret, I taught Lofty at secondary school !!

Re: Gudjohnsen training with the squad
Neil Lennon was on sky earlier this evening saying that Eidur is actually training with BWFC to hopefully earn himself a contract, NL said that he still has something to offer but that it's up to him to get fit in the next few weeks and prove it.
He (Eidur) contacted the club himself and wanted to come and try and earn a contract. Also, apparently he's desperate to get back into the Iceland squad so wants to get back playing ASAP.

I just hope he's not hoping for a significant wage. Nor that he pushes out the upcoming, more rather he helps them develop.
I must day he looks in decent shape. Hardly like getting Jardel.

I know who the Harry The Hornet is from Watford. He works with my mate and I had a strange email exchange with him about his twerking after our defeat at Vicarage Road.Riviman wrote:Sorry promised I would not divulge .jaffka wrote:go on then, male or femaleRiviman wrote:Let you into a secret, I taught Lofty at secondary school !!

Re: Gudjohnsen training with the squad
Afraid I'm one of those with a soft spot for Lofty. I remember us playing Vinny Jones's lot in a night match at Burnden. Their support was a bit minimal, all gathered on the embankment end, and Lofty gave em a right good seeing to leading the orchestra as out fans did "We will rock you".

Re: Gudjohnsen training with the squad
Great article - legendary game. Did Roadrunner ever do a video of the match, or had they lost their contract when we went up to the prem the first time? I'd pay good money for the footage with Dave Higson commentary!clapton is god wrote:Nah, I like Lofty too. Been with us for many a year too! All the time at the Bok/Ron and at Burnden before that. Who could forget the battle with Wolves:

Re: Gudjohnsen training with the squad
So, to sum up the thread, he's still got the talent but maybe not quite the movement, might be useful playing in the No.10 role for half-an-hour here or there.
And Eidur might come back too.

I think he's a bit of an embarrassment tbh. Like an old running joke that a few people keep repeating.Harry Genshaw wrote:Bruce? What's up with you man? I'd have Lennon leave before that lion!
There. I've said it.
(& I'm not much of a Lofty fan either tbh. boom-boom )
