Artcile saying Bobby Grant is being tracked by a number of clubs......

Bobby Grant, the 19-year-old forward who impressed in Accrington Stanley’s FA Cup defeat against Fulham, is being watched by a number of clubs.

Grant is a friend of Liverpool and England’s Steven Gerrard and was given a punishment of community service after pleading guilty to affray in the December 2008 brawl in a Southport bar involving Gerrard, who was later acquitted in court.

Maybe he should look at who he is associating with socially or even better remember who he is before going to night clubs living the life of superstar footballer he plays for Accrington Stanley however i hope stanley get a good fee for him he is a good footballer and should concentrate his efforts on that instead of boxing

Doesn't Steve Gerrard come and watch Stanley occasionally, I heard he was there for the cup match against Fulham

Why would the Daily Mail feel the need to drag the brawling thing up again - that's nowt to do with how well he's playing, looks like he'll not be allowed to forget it for a long time to come by the press.
IMO, after that incident Bobby seemed to have grown up and his football has come on leaps and bounds, maybe he needed a short sharp shock like that - but it should now be history.
