Blackpool boss Ian Holloway says they hope to deal in Robbie Fowler today.
The Liverpool legend has been training with the Seasiders this week.
"And I got my Chairman, who's going to ring him tomorrow and try and sort something out, you know, so I've got everything crossed. As I say, it's all about
I'm trying to teach people things and work with people, and the best way of doing it is showing them by having a great senior pro who can do it. You know, as I say, I think Robbie's another one; I think he's fit enough, I had a good look at him yesterday. It's all about whether he still wants to do it, mate, you don't ooze class like that and then forget how to do it, and off in a pocket for us, him behind the front, I won't have to teach him anything, mate, and he won't have to run that far."
Holloway was talking to Ian Wright on the Absolute Radio Rock N Roll Football show.

I had a lovely phonecall from someone who said 'Would you be interested in Robbie Fowler, he'd love to come and play for you?' So good gracious me, what a compliment that is for me, but we had him down yesterday, wonderful, wonderful lad. I don't know if you know him yourself?
