A strange decision but thinking about it now I think the plan might have been to force our hand to try and buy him. Can't see him coming back now as Dyche might want a look at him which is understandable especially if you don't get a new striker in.

I don't think Simms can play for Coventry this season. Pretty sure he can only play for Everton or us as a player can't play for 3 different clubs in one season.

Punching horses Shouting at shops Mock funerals Embracing murderers Once you've ticked a few of the above it's time to worry. BTW, off the field we have without doubt been the basket of all basket cases for around 6 years. The shoots of improvement are back again now though. Good luck for...

Hi mate, like a couple of other posters have said Simms isn't a target man and he is pretty average at holding the ball up, you look at his height and would think that would be his game but it's not. He comes alive with the ball at his feet around the box and his a real eye for goal. I'm pretty...
