Where did that little nugget come from? I've got mates in Melbourne and I'm sure they'd have been on to me like a shot if that were the case?

If it's true he'll be lining up alongside Frank Lampard and David Villa - but are there really not young(ish) prospects in Australia on a par with Pooley?

I think there are, but good luck to him if this tums out to be real info. Been to Melbourne a couple of times and loved it..

If Paul arnison can get a game out there any fucker can.

Seems a believable link due to his city days

If true its a no brainer for the lad. Hartlepool for the winter or Melbourne on a lot more money...... I know which one I'd plump for at his age.

I thought David Villa had signed for the new team in New York in the MLS

The new, New York team is also owned by Man City.

Only in brief glimpses. Chesterfield Away that day he scored twice, and Rochdale Away where he bossed the game. Aussie Football should suit him, its a lesser standard and he will shine.

Its not that far off league 2 standard most teams are better I think.

His departure now confirmed on the OS.

Best of luck, JP

What, again?

This is an unimaginative tour of England, they need to open the doors and stop playing Bury.
