Bircham: Returning to The Den?
Speculation in the West Country is rife that the man who once played with bird poop in his hair is set to return to The Lions.

Marc Bircham, former Canadian international and club joker, is said to be on his way from Yeovil Town after failing to settle in Somerset.

The 30-year-old midfielder has made just 13 appearances for The Glovers after moving on a free transfer from his boyhood team, Queens Park Rangers, last summer. Bircham, who has a lion tattoo on his arm, had previously made over 100 appearances for Millwall and was linked with a move back to the club before he joined Yeovil

Reports suggest they he is set to re-sign for The Lions before tomorrow's 5pm deadline in time to face Oldham Athletic at the weekend.
