The other day my boss in work said she and her husband went for a meal in town with their daughter and son-in-law and a few tables away was Browning (I showed her a picture of him and she confirmed that he's whom she saw) having a meal with two blokes in suits, presumably his agent and a club representative over a new contract. They're blues and tried to eavesdrop to hear what was being said and they heard talk about wanting first-team football.
On my mother's life I'm not lying. My guess would be he'll sign a new deal and it will announced the next few days.
