Nearly Bees

Derek McInnes annoys me. Probably cos he nearly joined the Bees but didn't. I also remember David Platt, Ian Wright and Paul Canoville were nearly Bees.
Any more?

Oh yeh... Jason Roberts...

Was told once Carlton Cole lived on Brent Lea estate. Don't know if we nearly signed him as a kid.

All the press on that is part of why I find him annoying. Agent and Chairman clearly like to talk about how great he is.

Anyone mentioned that (Martin?) butler?

yeah, but we did get Lewis Price and he kept a clean sheet against our development team plus was sub goalie for Palace today so Ruddy was no loss
