It was a rumour that was doing the rounds before the transfer window slammed shut.
A rumour that suggested that Brian McBride was returning to Craven Cottage for one last hurrah!
But it never happened and we were left wondering why and pondering over what might have been.
Well it turns out that McBride was very keen to return but that his club, Chicago Fire, were the ones objecting with Roy Hodgson remarking,
“It`s fair to say Brian was angry. We all wanted it to happen ? apart from Chicago Fire.”
All rather sad really!
