We will not sign JCH today or in the summer. Lock the thread. Stupid question I suppose which won't be answered. But I'll have a go. How do you know? If you say it's rock solid but you can't reveal your sources, then it's no more credible than me saying I've just seen JCH in the Wetherspoons in Fishponds. He bought me a pint actually. £2.45. Cheapskate. Wael was in the clubhouse before a home game in December telling people.

I believe you btw, but strange things happen in football. It's a funny old game, as Greavsie or The Saint or Mark McGhee once said.

Half serious question....what is he doing with his time?
Training, I guess, but match fitness will wane.. It's bad business all round.

I’m sure that JCH will do a deal with Peterborough over what remains of his contract and become a free agent and then I guess it will be an auction amongst whatever clubs are interested

It might also be that if POSH get promoted JCH gets a bonus.

He would be such a big boost for us to sign him in the summer. I'd even give him 3 years given that hes not exactly gonna lose his pace. Guaranteed goals and an example to young players aiming for the Championship. Given that we restarted his career he might as wel be one of our own

I do wonder about players who dont try everything to play games and are happy to rot on the bench or in the stands.
On the flip of that there are players like Charlie Savage who wasnt played as one more appearance would trigger a wage increase, so he deferred this to the summer in order to play games now. Fair play to the lad

The agent (even if he is a dickhead) was doing his best by his client. We could have walked away at any point. We agreed a deal with more than enough time to complete, even getting help from Liz Elsom to complete the paperwork as she could see how incompetent we are. But we failed to get the deal done. Not JCH. Not his agent. Not Peterborough. It was Bristol Rovers fault. Obviously.

We do need a striker, but please not him. He is finished now and looking for an easy time, I say not for us.

Of course he's not finished, he was the top goal scorer in League One last season and scored 29 goals. He's scored 10 this season from 25 matches. You might not want him but he's far from finished. Here he is scoring twice V Barnsley about 5 weeks ago
