Walking out on Cardiff City pre-season after agreeing a new contract and the club spent a year giving the player the very best around the world treatment for injuries was always going to make Robbie Fowler a hate figure, even if many like myself didn't want him to stay anyway and glad to see the back of him really but news emerges that the player's last fling with the Premiership may be dying as he is in talks with League Two Grimsby about a player coach role.
You like Fishing Robbie? F'off to Grimsby then
Fowler has had 3 Premiership outings - two as substitute - totalling 102 minutes at Blackburn but with the club under Paul Ince currently in the bottom two and looking every inch a relegation side, the player's short-term contract is due for renewal this month and his future there has to be shrouded in doubt. Grimsby are battling to stay in the Football League but fortunes have improved under Mike Newell, a friend of Fowler's.
He could stay, he could go, he could be using Grimsby for something else which wouldn't be the first time he's pulled a stunt like that. Still, how the mighty fall eh?
