Feed the Hare and he will score?

Plenty in the papers today including WHU being linked with Marlon Harewood. Having failed at Villa he should be hungry and at £250k might be a good squad player for us if he can reproduce anything like the form of 2005-06. He also bagged a few on loan at Newcastle. On the other hand he's 30 and might be only destined to become a kitchen fitter.

Diamanti has played down links to AC Milan, Arsenal may go for Carlton and the Guardian claims a mystery north American investor (Tiger Woods? Gordon Gekko? North Yank Norman?)has entered the Hammers bidding, although elsewhere Karren Brady is said to be checking our books.

Oh and Radoslav Kovac is retiring from international football with the Czech Republic to concentrate on relegation, sorry, that should read club football.
