pete 318 Posted October 9, 2017 Welcome Grant back to Norfolk bit of a fall from grace. We know you weren''t enamoured with Hughton but you gave every indication your heart was in Carlisle obviously it was in Snorefolk. Pity you left when you did you had another season or two in you. Wish you every success in KL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Diane 500 Posted October 9, 2017 You missed Simon Lappin from your title, its a double signing for Kings Lynn. Massive coup for the club. As LOS said Holty & family moved back to Norwich over a year ago, was well documented on here when his girls started back at Langley School Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TIL 1010 4,722 Posted October 9, 2017 That will ensure a bumper crowd at their next home game. Good luck to Kings Lynn even thought their owner is a wide boy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Diane 500 Posted October 9, 2017 Think I read somewhere they average around 675 ish, should see it around 1000 plus mark now? £12 a ticket and £1 for kids Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BroadstairsR 2,138 Posted October 10, 2017 I always like it when players see out their careers to the very end in this way.Clearly GH has no need of the money (or shouldn''t have by now) so it is just a love of playing which now motivates him.This seems a good move by King''s Lynn and will likely generate a quite bit more interest than usual in the area.I, for one, will be keenly taking notice of the way things turn out.

AJ 1,218 Posted October 10, 2017 Great for Holty, he''s very much focused on the aftermath of his career now and sounds like he''s looking to get some coaching experience whilst also still being able to play a bit longer whilst also being closer to his family - great for him.Nice to see them both helping a local club too after settling here. Always liked Lappin, I''m sure he''s got he brains to be a good coach as well if he wants to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Old Shuck 183 Posted October 10, 2017 I wasn''t too sure about him!"Holt would be a so-so signing, hard working and gets some goals, but you wouldn''t want to put the entire goalscoring responsibility on him-but with someone youung, raw, and keen alongside him, it might work."Mind you, if the "young, raw and keen" was Chris Martin, then maybe it did!Bigged up the Shrewsbury keeper mind, one Luke Daniels. He''s now with Brentford. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's Character Forming 1,160 Posted October 10, 2017 Real credit to GH that he''s continuing to play, says a lot about the man. A true City legend. I love that pic of him laughing with the City 5 1p5wich 1 scoreboard in the background. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
