Rumour:   Villa to sign Dempsey for £7m   Reality:   "Villa boss Paul Lambert has confirmed that a deal for Chesterfield striker Jordan Bowery is "nearly done", with the 21-year-old set to complete a £500,000 move plus add-ons." - BBC   Why did he leave? looks like the same situation he would have been in at Norwich!

If he does sign, what are the chances that the song will be an Alan Partridge style "Knowing me, knowing you, Zaha.."

[quote user="Across The Pond Yellow"]he would be a good outside shout, but I just can''t see it. the only way I can see it happening is if it''s a loan where we''re only paying like 60% of his wages... they must be reasonably high, given how much liverpool like to overspend ;) + I can see us going in for a more pacy striker.[/quote] They are £50k/week - source: Brendan Rodgers... Asked if Carroll would still be a Liverpool player when the window closes tomorrow night,  Rodgers said: “It is too early to say. I can only be straight with a player on where he stands.  You don’t need to be a rocket scientist to see Andy has been a cover player for us. He has been excellent in terms of his attitude and his acceptance of where he is at. But I’m not sure we are in a position to have £35m players as third-choice strikers or wingers who might be on £6m a year. I don’t think the club are in that position. The club needs repair financially.” http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/342892/Reds-tell-Andy-Carroll-he-can-t-stay-here-/

In terms of people I would not like near Norwich I would have to say the top 5 are: 1= Kevin Muscat 1= Joey Barton 3  Neil Warnock 4  Diouf 5  John Terry

It was a good call by Rob, but I think 1 game is too early to say whether he is or isn''t a success.  Just look at Marc Libbra. Saying that, I did pick him for my Fantasy League team!

[quote user="Mahogany"]Norwich City Defender Michael Turner from Sunderland for a fee of 1.9m; Scottish midfielder Robert Snodgrass from Leeds for a fee of 3.2m; Midfielder Jacob Butterfield on a free transfer from Barnsley; Scottish defender Steven Whittaker on a free transfer from Glasgow Rangers. [/quote]   I thought City agreed a fee with Barnsley, before it went to tribunal, so it wasn''t a free.

[quote user="Colourful Canary"] Gary lineker is a likeable and professional presenter.  It''s Shearer, Hansen and Lawrenson who are stuck in the 70''s and 80''s and churn out the same biased and predictable comments every week and should be replaced. [/quote] I agree, would love to see Lineker, Dixon and Dublin doing MOTD.

http://bwinbetting.com/leagues/club-friendlies/ajax-wipe-floor-canaries,21913.html "Why Ajax will wipe the floor with Norwich Ajax have picked up where they left off at the end of the season and have been in imperious form over the summer months. The team from Amsterdam won the Eredivisie by six points over second-placed Feyenoord last season, scoring an incredible 93 goals in the process, and have carried on in exactly the same vein in pre-season. Ronald de Boer’s side have won all six of their pre-season encounters and have banged in an incredibly impressive 26 goals in the process: typical of an exciting young team that, providing it can remain intact (there is always the worry that bigger European clubs will cast their net towards the Amsterdam ArenA), could develop into a side to be reckoned with abroad as well as at home. Their match against Norwich is their third against British sides this summer, and after defeating Celtic 4-0 at home and seeing off Southampton 1-0 at St. Mary’s on Saturday, Ajax will have their eyes on a hat-trick of victories and I see no reason why they won’t get it."   Reading that makes the draw seem a pretty good result    

Only a matter of time before they see his history of racist & homophobic tweets.

I don''t know if you have seen the guy on Twitter who has abused Tom Daley.  http://pic.twitter.com/jgGZQjUC This is some of his previous stuff. https://twitter.com/footballfunnys/status/229557449911308289 What is ammusing is that he has now seen himself reported on Sky TV, and people have told him about the guy who went to prison for abusing Muamba.

[quote user="Ncfc"]Its such a done deal that he has to hold more talks with Warnock , oh and they could at least spell his name right . One or two Villa fans tweets i have seen this afternoon still seem to think he will end up there. Sooner we get him signed up the better.

[quote user="TIL 1010"]For those of you on here that know our good friend Nutty ( Eddie Edwards) [/quote] Not Eddie "The Eagle" Edwards is it?   Anyway good luck Eddie.

That should be - Now we know what we know about them

Know what we now know about them,  do you think there was any more in this story? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/norfolk/8492302.stm   They mave have got information, that they would not be able to submit when they were sued.  You can just imagine their defence:   "We know it''s tru m''Lord, we listened to Delia''s phone messages on the subject..."

[quote user="lake district canary"]If you want maturity, a down to earth approach, a player of great courage,  a fantastic finisher, a player who shows passion when he walks on to a football pitch, a player who will never let you down, a player that has proved himself at every level, thats Holt.   Who will they go for? Caroll. [/quote]You forgot to mention that he is the second highest English goal scorer in the PL after Rooney

[quote user="priceyrice"][quote user="mikemiddle"] to top off a great season so far would love for us to beat a top 6 side.I would swap 8 place for 14 as long as we beat a so called big side and carried that into next season .I know we could finish 8 and beat a top side and i hope we do but this is like supporting roy of the rovers stuff these days can it get any better than this happy days ? [/quote] In understand what you are saying, would be nice to take a big scalp and i think Man U and the Liverpool game at home will be our only chance of that, if we go for it, which i realy expect we will at home, espicially now survivial is basically guaranteed. However, i''m not sure the win against Man U last time round in the prem would have been such a big deal if we had managed to stay up What i find the most satisfying this season has been our ability to beat the teams we came up with, both times, as well as beating those supposed bottom half teams, it is results like these that make your season, not the odd point against a top team [/quote] Can that now be classed as a 6-pointer? [:D]

[quote user="haisbrohacker"]The wheels on the bus go round and round round and round. round and round H[/quote] Good idea, or how about an adaptation/verse 2... Naughton on the bus to the training ground Training Ground Training Ground

[quote user="Shyster"]Swansea, Cardiff & Wrexham fans need to be reminded that they''re playing in the English League and should be grateful for that. [/quote]   Exactly, maybe his comment was not expressing a hatred of anything Welsh, but just his view that the ENGLISH Premier League should consist of English teams, and that''s why he said "shame there Welsh"...   ...or people are just over analysing things.  Heaven forbid anyone should ask him want he thinks of Paul "shame he''s ginger" Scholes!

If Colin goes there, do you think he will ban the players from using Twitter - as that was the reason he got sacked, not the poor performance...

[quote user="Trent Canary"]If anyone gets the chance to watch the goals on the FLS then do - I promise they are an absolute treat. [/quote]   So that''s why we didn''t keep Aaron Lee Barrett
