Samwam27 519 Posted August 25, 2016 Derby make ''substantial'' offer for Matej VydraGood grief. Whilst we "wait" to see if people become available, evryone else seems to have cottoned on you actually place bids for players!WTF are norwich waiting for Vydra, Ings, Rhodes. They''ll all be gone before this window closes and we''ll look like muppets again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
If wed only kept Howie.. 3 Posted August 25, 2016 except - none of those players have gone so far have they?There are 2 parties to a contract - and perhaps the waiting is on the side of the selling clubs.. We know that transfer activity tends to cascade down the leagues - so just relax.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Samwam27 519 Posted August 25, 2016 Relax??? We''re 56 days into the xfer window.Things are starting to hot up, but I''m slightly bemused by AN being confident "he''ll land" his men in next 6 days when nothings transpired in previous 56!Oliveria will be a good start Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,218 Posted August 25, 2016 Vydra was mentioned a few days back, wouldn''t be a bad addition by any means.I only hope if we''re letting players like this slip through the net that we''re after bigger fish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daly 500 Posted August 25, 2016 NO hurry We normally wait till we''re in trouble before we buy. Typical example Naismith and look what you get Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nuff Said 5,093 Posted August 25, 2016 How do you know 1) Derby have actually made this offer, as opposed to a journalist making it up, or the club starting a rumour to placate the pant wetters among their fans, and 2) we haven''t made equally substantial offers but kept it discrete?

Samwam27 519 Posted August 25, 2016 Nuff re: your second point, NCFC manage all dealings very discreetly, but if an offer has been made then we''re not the only ones, and they tend to get leaked to bump the price up.Would be great if NCFC followed up their substantial offer in MC with one for one these guys like Vydra, Rhodes etc.By close of xfer window we''ll probably all be disappointed but we''re used to that as fans Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hank shoots Skyler 2,094 Posted August 25, 2016 We bid early for McCormack didn''t we? That went well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It''s plain fact based on being an NCFC for 40 years and waiting through many a xfer window "hoping" one day we''d net a big one!We''ve moved on massively in those yrs having 4 £8m players in the team these days!

pete 318 Posted August 25, 2016 Vydra really impressed at Reading! No chance of us bidding for new striker (s) will only get loanees. Looks like one is Oliveira hope the other is Chuba Akpom. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norfolkngood 1,086 Posted August 25, 2016 i have no problem waiting for derby to have a bid accepted so we can match the bid and jump in all we are doing is making derby find the price out for us !as long as we keep tabs on it will be fine the agent will let us know when price is agreed and what it is before he signs for anyone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FenwayFrank 2,457 Posted August 25, 2016 Have we ever been linked with him other than someone post on here that they thought he would be good for us ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jack Flash 13 Posted August 25, 2016 Has a great reputation but only 3 goals in 31 appearances for Reading last season. Derby tend to overspend on players these days so would not want to compete with them anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
STFU 0 Posted August 25, 2016 Here''s a thought Samwam-maybe AN doesn''t want any of those players? Imagine how much more like muppets we''ll look if we buy players based on a message board opinion? (Which is divided anyway). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jools 584 Posted August 25, 2016 I think ''Vydra'' is a tad too close in looking like ''Viagra'' on the team sheet and I''m also pleased we never signed Ralf Minge way back in ''83. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
