Brown solid for Wales? Was he solid in his mighty 2 appearances for Wales? Can't find the name of the other but one of them was the might that is Trinidad and Tobago. In the 2005/6 season.
The guy, aside from 5 years with Gillingham ( at div 1/2 level ) has barely played over the last 5 season. 16 matches, an average of 3 a season? Even worse when you consider 9 occured this season!
We're at a crucial, crunch time of the season. Anybody, short term, with experience would benefit us far, far more.
Brown has been content to sit on his arse at Blackburn picking up a nice pay packet, handed to him by his good mate Hughes. Subsequent managers, well, a nice firm no 2/3 keeper in the squad, lacking the drive to get off his arse and demand a tranfser to get playing time.
Just what we need.

2 games for full national team and 7 for U21's and yes he was solid.
Its Wednesday night now, we have a game Saturday, clearly he is not DJ's first choice and we dont know how many other keepers he has approached but he had to get someone in.
Harsh to say he is happy to pick up a pay packet, the same happens at a lot of clubs with a lot of keepers.

Carrol would have been a better options but I do find it strange that he wants to come back into football but yet cant find ANY club. Something about it dont add up for me

Reputation, had made the odd mistake, went to Denmark so some managers may adopt the "out of sight, out of mind" approach. More likely he'll get offers in summer.
I'd love it if he plays, turns out to be the next Southall, but let's get realistic here.

Thought you were suggesting Southall then when I glanced over it
I would have no problem going without a keeper on the bench if Heaton was fully fit but its risky when he is doubtful
