A few bits and bobs of interest to us are in the papers/on the websites today.
Firstly, we apparently made a late bid for Burnley centre-forward Kyle Lafferty on Friday which was rejected. Maybe in January?
Secondly, Abdeslam Ouaddou (remember him?) wants a return to the Premiership. Despite being nearly 30, the Valenciennes captain reckons he's in with a shout. Spurs apparently showed interest in him last year although I find that hard to believe. There was an argument he was being played out of position when he was with us, but memories of his uncoordinated attempts to clear his lines when we were back at Loftus Road still linger.
Finally, Heidar Helguson is out for seven weeks following ankle surgery. I was never convinced this lad was real premiership class but you couldn't fault his spirit and commitment to the cause and I hope he recovers well.

I'm stunned that Ouaddou is 30 already. I always thought he was a young 20-something when he played for us. I guess the time is passing quicker than I realised.
Hi Chopper, thanks for that.
Sorry a bit of a typing error - i had meant to put nearly 30 - he was born in November 1978 - so has still got a year and a bit to go...I have corrected the piece now.
