Reckoned from the beginning that the signing of Michel Owen for us would be quite unlikely were it left solely down to the manager. We've allegedly come about some money that the manager wasn't aware of, something to do with taxes and currencies (??). There's no pressure for him to sign him, but the powers that be in the club and the sponsors reckon it would be a good move for the club and not just in a footballing sense. Owen is desperate to come back. A centre back of quality will definitely be added, but we all knew this anyway.
