    This is typical BS sensationalist journalism..

    1: She has not left..She is looking for a buyer or partner after those prats the Turners backed out on their agreement when they signed on to play ''super fan''.

    2: No transfer buget for Roeder? The window is shut until the new year and he has signed 13!

    3:Frantic behind the scenes sackings or player wages being cut?..They resigned 2 weeks ago and in that time we ADDED 2 players well aware that the Turners were not fulfilling their end of things...added wages so it''s unlikely they now want to cut. Especially as Sibierski arrived on Prem wages the night before this announcement.

    Why do people speculate and make up nonsense?

    Mellow Yello. Yes they are loans because we could not afford to buy those players in our dreams! And we are full circle.

    If  Norwich were to replace those loans with purchases right now you would be able to spend 200k a piece. For that you will get cr-p.  For the budget available to NCFC the loan market was the only option and GR has done a super job in my opinion. Look at other teams..See what they spent..Even the sides who blow a million or 2 on a forward only signed 2 or 3 others. We have a new team playing good football and I am delighted wth that.

    Whether or not they leave at the end of the season is irrelevent. last years Ched is this years Lupoli. Next years Lupoli will be someone else. I''ll take the better class of player on that pitch over what we can afford any day of the week.

    "Then what''s" and "what if''s" are irrelevant. What of we''d bought Maynard for 2.25 million and he got injured? Then what would we do?

    Sons of...I hear ya and I don''t disagree but I never said we should fill the side with loans and not have any assets. No one can rate Bell yet, but Clingan, Stefanovic and Hoolahan do look good. I did however say that having assets that are cr-- instead of a loan like Bertrand or Lupoli will leave you with nothing to sell but just another player to release like Lappin. Another player sucking wages that has nothing to offer the standard you need to climb the table.

    The face of football is changing forever with rising fees and whether or not you or I like it the loan market is a good way to obtain quality players. I am also reading in more than one place by many people that Saturday''s performance was the best for years. Linking play involving our loans was at times fantastic. You can''t have it both ways...This team with it''s loans included makes the team at the same time last year look League 2.

    And I haven''t questioned Glenn''s Judgment, in fact I have applauded it. His clever use of the loan market to improve our side is seriously impressive .

    The more loans they merrier. They are better players than we could possibly attract with a Colaship budget and if they gel? Who knows. Yes we may get a new team every year...But we are getting better players.

    Feeder club? We are getting the benefit from the loans. We could never afford Bertrand or Lupoli. Few in this league could!

    Barclay Boy...I think that fact that they are not ours is to our advantage...They suck? Send em back..They work out? Great..Nothing lost. Promotion is the goal but who wants to be stuck with a bunch of players on 3 year deals when we do? Players who cannot play in the Prem? Getting players from the Prem is a win win.

    Sons of Boadicea. I see your point but Bertrand was never within our budget or that of any Colaship club.. Chelsea turned down 2 mil in the summer from Hull. He is better than this league and we are reaping the benefits. The loan system works a treat.

    Bertrand may be on a 3 month loan but Roeder indicated at the time that this would be extended for the season. The 3 months covers Chelsea''s back should they suffer an injury crisis.

    A good debate this one...One thing is for sure. Lupoli and Kennedy would not be here if not for loans. Bishop and Shackell would.

    Not quite true. Check out Hereford. Most loans are a better class of player than you can afford. If you can afford them then you blow 3 million on an Ameobi instead of getting 7 good loans. Yeah you can only play five. Well Archibald-Henville and Koroma will probably be squad now. I am hoping we don''t lose one of the back two or Lupoli.

    We finally have depth at every position and instead of embracing that all people do is moan. If it were not for the loan system we would not have nearly as deep a squad as we do now. 2 players for every spot. Better players than we have had for a few years!

    If they work out maybe we can keep a couple, if not then get another...Roeder is using players from a higher league and hoping their higher standard will do the job. I hope we CAN''T keep them because that means they are good and thats what gets you up above everyone else!

    Moan, moan, moan another loan, loan, loan...

    Good. Loans are ace. They are fantastic. Why?

    You get to sign players who you a: Cannot afford to buy, b: Cannot afford to pay.

    What you don''t end up with is a duffer you CAN afford who is stuck on the wage bill for three years and a shot that a 2 year old would be happy with.

    Go up? Brilliant. Your loans have done the job and you have plenty of wages freed up for the big time. Stay down? Get some more loans or re-sign a few you tried last year that worked as well as Bertrand.

    Loans are fantastic ladies and gentlemen. Fabulous.

    Finally for all the moaners who complain we should not be signing 34 year old forwards and young reserves, a reality check. My Norwich City and yours are currently a Championship club with a Championship budget. We have signed 13 players this summer and still the moaning on this board continues. How many clubs signed 13 this year, or for that matter 24 last year! From what I saw on Saturday we looked a bit tasty.

    Sibierski is what we needed. A holding forward who can score. At this level he will be spot on. I personally would have prefered Iversen but I guess I will have to wait until January if ever.

    Just a thought, out of the 13 we signed, who is unhappy with Stefanovic, Kennedy, Lupoli, Clingan, Hoolahan and Bertrand? I thought not...

    Up the City!

    Go and ask that question to Hereford boss Graham Turner.

    If you can loan a player from a higher league thus getting a better standard of player for a year then I am all for it. It may be a cheaper way of signing players but these loans still cost money / higher wages in some cases and who is to say the player will be any good or fit in? Loan him and you are not stuck with a rubbish player for 3 years..Chris Brown or Ched Evans? John Kennedy or Gary Doherty?You decide.

    Hmm...Well the Earthquakes have improved dramatically since Hucks arrived but they did sign 3 other starters too including Francisco Lima and Arturo Alvarez. Huckerby IS having a field day in the M.L.S but it is also a pretty weak league..One pass, two pass, give it away...repeat for 90 mins.

    But Huckerby''s influence there should not be underestimated. He has been very influential setting up goals and scoring 2 and setting up 3 in 5 games. He also been his usual self...Runs down the left, one twos into the box etc.
