Carl Cort signs...

Former Newcastle United and Wimbledon striker Carl Cort (31) has today signed for Brentford FC on a five-month contract.

 

Cort played for Norwich City last season making his debut against Reading. Following Norwich's relegation to League One Cort left the club after having his contract terminated by mutual consent. Cort spent time with Wycombe Wanderers during the pre-season and (presumably) did not offer Cort a contract.

 

He has previously played for Wimbledon, Lincoln City, Newcastle United, Wolverhampton Wanderers, Leicester City (where he was one of Martin Allen's first "signings") and UD Marbella.

 

Cort is the Premiership's top scorer EVER (for those that have not scored more than a goal in any one game).

 

Newcastle boss Bobby Robson paid £7million for Cort in the summer of 2000. He is one of seven English players who have made a £7 million transfer and never played for England. He is also the only English player who has made a £7 million transfer to be banned from Tesco for (alledgelly!) queue jumping with Mrs Cort and inquiring: "Don't you know who we are?"

 

I wonder if he still gets injured as much as when he was here.

If anyone deserves a clip reel it's Cort, that volley against Everton (I think) was class.

 

Aye it was class - he started really well but then broke his leg i think and that was pretty much that. It was rumoured his lass had an explosive temperament (allegedly gave carl a good kicking from time to time) so the queue jumping comment isn't a surprise

Bit harsh on himself, the lad.
