As the transfer window creeps closer to re-opening, speculation as to where Canadian player of the year Simeon Jackson will end up. It is becoming increasingly clear that he will not be in League One come February.
It's exciting as a Canadian fan. So rarely do we have a player that is attracting as much speculation as Jackson. It almost feels like we are a real footballing nation. Almost, anyway.
Wolves remain one of the hardest chasers along with Queens Park Rangers. It seems that he is destined to end up in that 11-30 range in the English pyramid. If that's the case, you might as well go to a yo-yo team that is currently in the Premiership rather than one fighting to get there. It is, after all, a hell of a lot easier to stay up than it is to get up.
With Wolves currently tied for the second worst attack in the EPL it would seem that Jackson would get a fair look there. If he can help them stay up, then that's great news for Canadian fans as it would ensure that this country had a striker in the top flight for another year (with the benefits of all that entails - exposure and experience). If he goes down, well, maybe he has a chance to prove his worth in the top flight and is able to attract more interest for another move up.
