Chris MacDonald 0 Posted January 6, 2006 ......Worthingtons delight when he heard Etuhu was available, and that he would be within Norwich''s Grasp after a Loan spell for 450,000... I bet Nigel ran as fast as he could to "Delia Towers" banging loudly on the door shouting "Etuhu, Etuhu.. we can get Etuhu" so that Delia and Michael coughed up some of their hard earned Dosh to finance the move of the century for Norwich city!!!! Then imagine Nigel Worthingtons disapointment when he finds out that he has to phone Lancashire and not Barcelona.. sadly realising that its not Samuel Eto''o but Dixon Etuhu.... Pray to god no one tells him Ronaldinho is available he''ll go to Mcdonalds and come back with their smiley faced mascot clown!Chris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Citizen Journalist Foghorn 0 Posted January 6, 2006 I dont think we actually sent anyone to scout him. Either that or the guy we did send just saw a Big Black Viera like figure and didnt even notice how he played. The scouts need sacking if you ask me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
General Melchett 0 Posted January 6, 2006 Can''t believe I keep rising to these inane posts but then nobody else is fighting the corner of balanced minds, so here goes...Guilty till proven innocent? Don''t think so, judge him when he''sactually had a run in the team. Or perhaps we should have signedsomeome quality like Gerrard or Lampard - can''t believe NW didn''t thinkof that ;-)Pinch yourself and then you might wake up, we''re in the Championship!

We need a Manager 0 Posted January 6, 2006 Yes we are in the Championship jonercanary , so is Jason Koumas , we will stay in this League for a long while too if Nigel Worthington remains at the helm , Hughes, Jarrett, Etuhu and Robinson all signed this season and none able to do any better than Holt .We are not moving forward we are going backwards and many more of Nigels signings and we will be right there on a par with Ipswich.

Salopian 1 Posted January 6, 2006 JonerEveryone hopes that Etuhu comes good, even if he is not as good as Francis.Two things make us doubt that he will:1) Since he has been with Norwich, apart from one or two brief glimpses, he has done nothing to impress. It may be that because he had to serve an apprenticeship like everybody else by playing on the right wing and out of position, he was a little lost. It may be that he has lost his confidence and needs to play more to recover it. But the second reason is more compelling.2) He has not exerted himself for some months, according to Preston fans, and performs for about one game in ten. In this he is like Francis, perhaps worse. It could be that under expert encouragement and man-management he will discover himself and again be as he was two years ago. Of course it could be that Worthy and his scouts have not seen him in all this time, and it may be that the problems Worthy has with some players will eventually encompass Etuhu as well.....We need somone like Francis, even more we need a creative midfielder, but recent signs are not good.
