Bit of a danger man today.
Can't believe he's only on a reported £1k per week at Reading (crooked FFP accounts, dodgy club/owner)

IIRC he's scored at the Riverside against us while playing for:
- Reading
- West Ham
- Newcastle

Probably the headed goal (surprise?) from a corner against West Ham in the PL was the most painful IMHO.
The one for the geordies in the 2-2 ('trophy virgins game?) was obviously annoying too.

KEEP AN EYE ON HIM!!!!!
 
Unplayable in the west ham game.

I think he went close 3-4 times. Hit the bar? I imagine Fry 'can't wait' 😂
 
Always gets a bit of stick off our fans so seems to be pumped up whenever he plays here.

He'll probably score today but we should still have too much for them in the end.
 
Always more frustrating when he scores from a header, connecting with a ball gently lofted into the box.

Whoever could have guessed, defenders, that the big fella up front had prepared such a cunning move?
 
He’s a pain in the **** and a dirty decker, thankfully he’s made of sugar glass, so just need Lenihan or Smith to smash into him early and hobble him.
 
Really? He's awful.

Was half decent around 15 years ago. His physicality can make him tricky but I'd be surprised if we allow ourselves to be bullied by him.

Should have retired years ago.
 
One of those big physical strikers we always seem to struggle to contain.

See also Brian Deane, Heskey and Dike.
 
...... and Marlon Fooking Harewood!

Double-checking history.
Looks like we managed to keep him quiet when he last played against us at home for West Brom.
Fry & McNair were the centre halves that day.
Fry and Lenihan will hopefully prove too much for the soap-dodger today.
 
He was a superb player.
Well past his best now but capable of dealing with most defenders at our level.
Saying that I would still rather have Chuba, Archer, or Forss in our team than him.
But I hope he has an off day because he can still do it.
