Hmmmm. Theoretically, Yes I think Speed would be brilliant. He's still fit, still holding his own in the Prem (Although I think he is now being used sparingly) and is keen to get into coaching, which is perhaps one of the main reasons. However, not sure he fit's in with Wise's ethos. He's 36 and I would say has maybe another 2 years in him, providing he keeps fit (I know Sheringham is still going at 42 ... Like all the best intelligent strikers ahem!). I think we could attract him now we're pushing for promotion and maybe a player/youth team coach role might be tempting. I would expect he knows the wages would drop as it's that period in a footy players career. But if we can tempt him with a coaching role (One of the reasons he fell out with Lee was that Lee wasn't letting him have any input) and a 'career' progression, then it could work.
