When I saw this bumped I hoped that Ngog had been found.

I take it there's no news.

The club denied he was missing, said he was suffering from a virus and that people should respect his personal and medical confidentiality. He returned to training last Wednesday and the club said he'd had gastroenteritis, were evasive of anything beyond that.

Former England goalkeeper David James is to auction hundreds of items of football memorabilia collected during his career.

James, who played for Liverpool, Aston Villa, West Ham, Manchester City and Portsmouth, was declared bankrupt in May.

Among the items being sold through Kent-based auctioneer Hilco are 150 signed shirts, shorts and match balls.

Also being sold is James's customised Astra van and Raleigh Chopper bikes.

The 44-year-old won 53 England caps during a career that also saw spells at Watford, Bristol City and Bournemouth and is currently goalkeeper and manager of Indian Super League side Kerala Blasters FC.

Bids for his possessions, which also include exercise and DJ equipment, vinyl records, books and toys, are being accepted from 6 to 18 November.

Shirts including an England home kit signed by the team, and a bright pink Portsmouth goalkeeper's jersey, are expected to sell for upwards of £30-50 each.

my first LFC game was when i was about 12 years old. It was v Arsenal at home (fowler hattrick....not the 3 min one, but the game when Ian Wright got a penalty first and LFC came back and won 3-1).......

anyway. I remember we waited for the players outside for autographs for a good hour or two. When David James came out, he was carrying a crate of Carlsberg and looked like he already had a few. Even at that young age i remember thinking that he would not be a top top player living like that....

The players we had at the club under Roy Evans that time were in my opinion awesome. They should have won leagues but the big disappointment was that we never even competed for them...... looking back it was a bit of a joke to be honest....

Often saw him in the pubs around Heswall, drinking, smoking - impressing the ladies.
Model professional.

The 33-year-old has been capped by Italy and was a free agent after being released by Sunderland at the end of last season. He is familiar playing at left back or on the left wing and joins the O's on a contract until the end of the season.
