Hartson Come Home!

Hartson Come Home!

He did that when he played crap for West Ham in the FA Cup :~) He added: "I'd love to wear the Swans badge and my dream is to play for them in a few years. I'm already planning that and I've ordered people to look at land in the area to build a home. "I'm nearing the peak of my career and I'm desperate to become a hero at the Vetch one day." "I want to be the local lad who goes back and scores the goals that gets them flying up the league." Hartson, is the most expensive Welshman in soccer history costing £12.7million in three transfers to Arsenal, West Ham and Wimbledon has now bagged eight goals in 10 league games for the Dons this season, including his 2 goals at Selhurst Park on Saturday. "I don't think anybody was more delighted when Swansea won the Third Division title last May." "My dad Cyril used to take me to the Vetch Field when the club played the likes of Manchester United in the old First Division almost 20 years ago." I stood on the North Bank and worshipped Alan Curtis, Bob Latchford, Robbie James and Jeremy Charles. My love for the club has never left me." Question is Hartson is the same age as me, and I'm too young to remember those days! Oh well, we'll have him anyway ;~)
