The Officially Not Official Summer Transfer Thread 2023

[Terminally Yellow 2,454]

Listening to talksport and they're talking about Mo Salah moving to Saudi for 200m euros + another 50m euros in add ons. That's absolutely mad. 

[HB1989 27]

With Omo maybe moving on, who do people hope we bring in as a replacement?

I’m hoping it’s Cashin from Derby, left footed ball playing centre half which would help.

Absolutely ridiculous money, BUT.. you have to love the media having a tizzy about it "ruining our league" when that's exactly what the PL elites have been doing to the rest of "our leagues" for 30 years.

Do you have the same deal as Webber to allow you regular time off to take part in the Faroe Islands bi-quarterly sea marathons?

That's the start of my pre-season training as it's early June. I already told him I start my pre-season earlier than everyone else. Gotta be fit and ready to pull the press off. 😉

He even called me Mr. 95%. I was thrilled.

Money talks. Much as I would hate him for the lack of morality end of the day

200 million quid is 200 million quid. Sure, he's already mega rich but he has kids and probably will have grandkids at some point.

He can set them up for life and another generation too with that dosh

Harwood-Bellis from man city. 

 

Edit: just see he signed for Southampton earlier... Dammit 

So... Mark McGuiness from Cardiff

Long gone to Southampton, I'm afraid. 

I think we will pull a left-footer out of thin air, but I have a feeling about Axel Tuanzebe

You were complaining we weren't involved earlier. Now we're "grubbing around". What exactly are you wanting? Baring in mind we are Norwich City and have never done anything differently. 

Something in between not being involved and grubbing around would be a good start. That Forest chap is hardly filling me with optimism.

Yep, just see that.

Pretty sure the same was said about Barnes by many though 🤔🤔🤔

[Dean Coneys boots 1,400]

Nor me- looks like 6th choice to me. We must be in worse doodoo than we know. Underwhelming

Going off your FM shortlist?

Nope, going off seeing him play 👍

Not really.

I think most felt he was a very good signing and his experience was just what we needed.

Yep I'm sure they did. There  wasn't anyone bemoaning his age or  scoring record

Todays has gone from Plan A to B to C to Plan D to oh god oh god panic stations

Twitter twits reckon Eiran Cashin to us for £4million. Got to be big Andy replacement. 

[Terminally Yellow 2,454]

Hmm....

I think it would be more than £4 million, i thought he was linked to Brighton .

You, like the rest of us, do not have a clue what the plans have been for the deadline.

The point surely is that we already have a Barnes in the building - we need a finisher. We already have idah who isn’t that sharp in front of goal- not much point grabbing another in a similar vein

The fact its been reported that Hwang was "top of the list" suggests plan A to me 🤷

Shh baby, it's ok. I have never claimed to have a clue of anything. Hush now 😇

Suggests Warner staying I have thought. We'll have 4 centre halves with Big Andy or his replacement, five once Hanley returns. Six was never likely or necessary IMO.

Can somebody just tell me who is in the building for gods sake!

[Terminally Yellow 2,454]

I've just seen Derby fans absolutely losing it at some photos of a bloke entering Starbucks suggesting it's Cashin on the way out of the club. No chance you can ID the fella IMHO. It's really quite something. 👍👍

Erm, well Zoe is currently making the tea's 

Delia is knitting in the corner 

MWJ is watching Pornhub in the directors box 

The cleaner is there somewhere but not quite sure where right now - maybe pocketing the milk cup to flog at sunday's Sprowston car boot.
