I'm sure many have brought this up in recent times, without much seriousness I suppose BUT...
Especially if we were to manage promotion to L1 this season, do we think there's any chance of temping Lambert back to the Gas?? He's not getting game time @ West Brom lately.
He was top scorer in L1 with us before... We could pay pay him decent money now too. I'm sure the opportunity to get us promoted to the Championship & then play for us there would be a tempting one for him? He knows how much he's loved here and always speaks very highly of his time at the Gas, whenever asked about it. Perhap another winner against the sh!t on the way up??
Stranger things have happened!

Afraid not partner:
He'd drop to championship before going to us. Now, if he was 2 years older and at the end of a champ contract then maybe, but not now - our players don't earn a 10th of what prem players make and no player is dumb enough to turn down money like that. It's a long retirement in football.

No but if we could only get him by offering a really high wage then I'd rather not have him here anyway. We need to do things the right way, keep the team spirit together and just spend little bits here and there to help us push on.

I think we may see him back but not yet.
He could get a good championship side next season no problem.
Perhaps the year after.
It could be great.

Your right next season he will sign for a championship side ,but this season he's not even on the bench for west brom . So would he consider a loan deal till the end of the season. Score 10 goals possible trip to Wembley,put his self in the shop window ,stranger things have happened

That said I don't think he'd come to us next season. I was quoting what he was reportedly on at Liverpool. I suspect he isn't on far off that at WBA. Why would he come back to Rovers for £4k p/w. |

I suspect he isn't on far off that at WBA. Why would he come back to Rovers for £4k p/w. perhaps he'd be wanting a bit more than that but he'd come back because rather than not playing at all, he'd be playing at a place where he's loved BIG TIME and where he knows he can bang the goals in for fun AND get another promotion! Those things have got to sound good to him... I'm sure he's not exactly strapped for cash at this point. He might consider the potential fantastic memories he could create for him & all of us, to be worth taking a considerable pay cut for Maybe I'm dreaming but still, that's allowed! UTG |

Perhaps if we were a Div 1 promotion chasing side this time next season we could tempt him back on £10K/20K per week plus a promotion bonus, but at the moment we are a Play Off chasing Div 2 side, fans really need to take a reality check.
