Tell him to fuck off if he had the chance to come here and turned us down.

We shouldn't be his fall back option.

We wouldn't and are not. He said he would like to come back.

Thought he spoke very well on the radio, very intelligent guy.

Embarrassing on the radio today when they were asking (begging) him to come back in a year or two. I'm not sure Baker is good enough right now, much less in a couple of years.

It's not like he was a highly paid premier league player, if it's his chance to earn a bit more money for his family for what is a long retirement, fair play to him. I'd have done the same.

Plus, as many onion bhajis as he can eat. We'll probably resign him once he looks like a Sumo wrestler.

You mean like many others where we have been, including Sordell last season who openly admitted that it was Coventry City or stacking shelves at Tesco?

If in the opinion of Robin's he is good enough to play next season and would improve the team, we should turn him down because he didn't sign for us? Biting off your nose to spite your face.

I don't think its quite like that. He was happy to come here but he's been offered silly money to go to India for a few months.

Given when their season ends and what Robins said about nothing happening at the moment with Baker I wouldn't be at all surprised if he's had a conversation with Robins and is going to cash in then come here for the rest of the season.

Its not like he'd agreed a deal here and then gone an signed for another L2 side. At his stage of his career you can't blame him for maximising his earnings.

Ends in March and I think he's only got a contract for one season so I'd presume once it ends he's a free agent an can sign for us if Robins wants him.

I think he has more of an eye on next season tbh.

I'm not sure on it tbh, I'd have taken him this window but there can't be many more seasons left in him now.

Your last bit doesn't make sense Rich. Are you saying he was at the training ground a couple of weeks ago? Have you heard he's joining?

EDIT: Just seen the updates on the other thread. Ignore me.

He's injured and will probably train with city to get himself ready for the Indian league next season.

If he is coming free and it sounds like he wont sulk if he does not play , I can see no harm in him being here. He does like the club and for sure.

Only time will tell if its happening but I would not be throwing my toys out the pram if came back.
