Attacking midfielder from Coventry, dont know anymore than you but if he's left sided could be an astute aquisition.
Just round at the local, and a friend of Carl bakers (after spotting my Pompey top) has told me that he is on his way to FP!! Don't know how true or if this is a short term thing, can anyone else ITK enlighten

After today I'd take Ma Baker from Boney M if it would improve the team.
Carl Baker had his contract at Cov terminated a week ago. Hilda Baker would get in our midfield at the moment![]()
he's a good player at this level,seen him a few times at morecambe a few year back,looked a skinny lad but had a lot of talent
Frankly we could do with a Bakers Dozen![]()

Baker has been recovering from a shin injury he picked up in pre-season.
Awford admitted on Monday he was mulling over a move in the loan market, after three league defeats on the bounce.
That wouldn’t be necessary to land Baker, though, after he cancelled his contract with Coventry earlier this month.
Awford brushed off talk of
