Littlesh*t Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Carlisle striker Michael Bridges has issued a come-and-get-me plea to Sunderland. The striker has revived his career at Brunton Park following a spell in the wilderness and he is looking to return to a higher bracket. Bridges started his career at Sunderland and is keen to aid Niall Quinn's bid to revive The Black Cats' fortunes. "I would relish the opportunity to go back there and be part of Niall Quinn's rebuilding," Bridges, who has had two spells with Sunderland, told the Northern Echo. "To be part of a set up that included Bobby Saxton again would be absolutely fantastic. He is a great guy to be around and I think they will both do what is best for the club." Bridges has caught the eye of a number of clubs this summer, but he appears to have trained his sights on a return to Wearside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheshire_red Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Hmmm he is about to start a new season for Carlisle in a higher division, they've lost their manager and Bridges issues an (alleged) newspaper appeal to go back to Sunderland on the eve of the new season.Might just give us a clue as to why he was let go by Johnson?

BCFC_Dan Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Apparently it's a contract thing. He had an agreement with Carlisle that they would offer him a new contract if he proved his fitness, and the new contract they offered obviously doesn't match his expectations.
