    According to a fulham supporting mate who associates with an individual inside FFC we approached them about HH but got rebuffed straight away but we're apparently in negotiations to bring Collins John in on loan until the end of the season.

    Collins John (born October 7, 1985 in Zwandru, Liberia) is a Dutch footballer playing for Fulham F.C. in the English Premiership. John was born in Liberia, but his family emigrated to the Netherlands after the murder of his father, during the genocide in the Liberian Civil War.

    Football career

    John was amusingly introduced to Fulham fans, at half time during their game in the 2003-2004 Premiership season against Tottenham Hotspur, by former Fulham midfielder John Collins. His debut for the club came against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on March 20, 2004. He scored eleven Premiership goals in the 2005-2006 season, despite only starting 15 of the thirty-seven games he appeared in. Despite not starting every game, and usually coming off the bench, he became Fulham's top goalscorer during that season, with 13 goals in the Premiership and other competitions. Brian McBride and Heiðar Helguson were behind with 12 and 11 goals respectively. One of those many goals coming against Middlesbrough FC; A volley from his weaker foot was later to be named "Goal of the Month" by the BBC and was in the running for "Goal of the Season".

    On August 16, 2006 he was linked to a £5million move to Premiership rivals Newcastle United F.C..

    Collins John was recently hospitalised after getting into an altercation with Middlesbrough's Robert Huth and Blackburn Rovers' Craig Bellamy in a nightclub in Manchester's Printworks in which his jaw had to be wired shut. Questions surrounding his playing future are amidst as the year 2007 dawns.
