bailojnr 0 Posted January 24, 2006 WardHalford Doc Davenport Drury McVeigh Idiakez Safri Huckerby McSheffrey Jerome Subs: Etuthu, Hughes, Shackell, Henderson, Fleming, Lewis This may be a pipe dream but we could afford it if we sell Green to Charlton as has been mentioned. This team would soon make me forget about Ashton. What team would u guys like to see by Feb? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy Eddie 0 Posted January 24, 2006 No, no, no we could not afford it. We are going to get a taste of ourown medicine and get right-royally ripped off in our transfer dealingsbetween now and the end of the window cos people will think of us ashaving oodles of cash.Jerome won''t come, why would he? His current team are in with a bettershout of the play-offs than we are. Unless he is purely motivated bymoney of course, in which case what a marvelous player to have onboard! We''re looking for hungry players not greedy ones.McSheffrey is a possibility, but expect fee to be double what''s reasonable. Oh, and he''ll be stuck on the right wing.Idiakez. Can anyone really see Worthy signing him??Halford. This is possible of course provided a) We are preparedto pay well over a million for him and b) Reading, Spurs or Man U don''tshow an interest.Davenport. Give this one up, Spurs will be looking for £1.5m at leastand we have Shacks who is easily as good, if not better. I think therea few pairs of rose tinted specs doing the rounds when it comes toDavenport. We can''t afford him anyhow if we want to do our best to getthe others.I wouldn''t be surprised if we end up signing just Halford and McSheffrey. Maybe also a failing prem target man.

Balham Yellow 0 Posted January 24, 2006 I would rather see Halford wide right and purchase a decent rightback. Wright from Wigan for example.Could we not also make an attractive offer to Koumas as we have zero creativity in midefield currently. Etuhu, Jarrett and Hughes all being dreadful signings.

Cheeky Monkey 0 Posted January 24, 2006 I Like, I like alot!! Looks solid throughout the whole squad! Not going to hold my breath or count my chickens though!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
percyvarco 0 Posted January 24, 2006 5 signings in 7 days........Its a great dream and a positive outlook......but do you reckon Worthy is capable of signing any of them? This season is dead, why not look at our young players, Spillane, Jarvis, Shacks etc and consolidate the Summer purchases, offer McVeigh a contract (go on Worthy - we know you don''t like him but don''t do an Edworthy to him) and build a consistant passing team for next term. But then I also don''t think Worthy has that in him either. So lets bring in a manager for the future who can look at the players we have, keep the Ashton pennies in th ebank and strengthen where he wants to instead of rushing to spend the cash this week.

shyster 0 Posted January 24, 2006 The 1st 11 we could have realistically had:Green/Ward, Halford/Fleming, Doherty, Davenport, Drury, McVeigh/Halford, Wise (capt), Saffri, Huckerby, Sutton, Timm.A promotion winning side if ever I saw one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
breaker 0 Posted January 24, 2006 My main concern is that I was told by someone at NCFC that up to FOUR players may be leaving Carrow Rd. No names were mentioned (and they did say ''up to'') but undoubtedly Ashton was one and Green likely to be another. However, who might the others be? Speculation may be positive in losing Brennan/Charlton but could McVeigh be going through the out door? Or Safri or Hux or The Doc?I would not be averse to a small clear out who could Worthy attract, and will be still play the same old way?Yes to any of Halford, McSheffrey, Idiakez, Koumas, Fallon, Eastwood, Sodje, Riordan, Buczasky, Brown, Lawrence and any other young, fast, creative, determined, motivated player.No to Lisbie, Gray or any other hard working but dull player.

Cantiaci Canary 553 Posted January 24, 2006 How much money do you think we have Bailojnr??? Why not get Jakubu while you are at it? I think we will be lucky to bring two in by that time ... clubs know how much we have got and will hold us ransom to our eagerness to get hold of someone. I think Jerome and Davenport alone would take nearly all the money even if they wanted to come. Don''t get your hope up too highly our you will be disappointed.

Northern Canary 0 Posted January 24, 2006 that would be amazing. I would be so confident of promotion at least next season.I think we will get Jerome and Halford bout Davenport and Idiakez are too much.McSheffrey may say but would we get two strikers?
