Croft has had a medical...

[Pete Raven 276]

Norwich City have had a bid of £600k accepted. A further £100k will be paid if we go up.

Worthy has said that Croft had been to Norwich for a look around and a medical, and had now returned to Manchester to think things over.

I''ve seen Lee Croft a few times at Man City (my brother is a fan) a good signing - and a winger!  That ticks two boxes, and 600k isn''t a bad price.

Now if only it wasn''t an hour before the ticket office opens......

OTBC!

Stand by for injury getting up to our outstanding fitness levels.

Good news, this, but it won''t be a Norwich City transfer unless it now goes on for a further three weeks.

[AJ 1,358]

Wow, what can i say?

 

A winger... i mean A Winger? What the hell is one of those?

 

well, at least we know we now have enough options in teh goalkeeping position now...... [8-)]

600K is quite a bargain

Croft will NOT sign for us, usually after a medical the deal is done, but not in this case. I smell a  Birmingham or Coventry at work here!.

Plus they are both nearer Croft''s home.

You mark my words.

100% agree with you wiz, i thought the same. The archant "Croft on his way" headline is very misleading.

I really think he''ll be off else where hence my pennant sold thread.

I agree ''''Croft on his way'''' headline is very misleading. Could someone from Archant please explain why theres no ''could'''' in there?

[Cheeky Monkey 0]

I agree - its very unlikely he will sign.

Shame - real shame.

The headlines seem to be written by some kid who has gone to work with his dad over the last week or so!

It''s a long time since anyone mistook me for a kid ....

I''ve added a question mark.

Thanks Celia

Was only joking - thanks for letting the post through anyway!

Optimism gets to us all before reality sets in.

On a brighter note, the board has been updated much quicker recently and it''s made it a better board and a more enjoyable one.

Enough grovelling?!

The headline was written by the same guy whom wrote: ''Crisis What Crisis'' and the utter Joke of a Theo Walcott story: one Chris Lakey...

I read it and thought the same.

[Evil Monkey 52]

You tell ''em, Celia...

I have my own reservations about the way in which Archant rarely ask probing questions of NCFC and just seem to be the mouth-piece for "all is well" statements.

But to openly slag off such reporters, whilst posting on the boards set up by them, smacks a little of disrespect.

It''s like going round someone''s house for dinner and telling them afterwards that their cooking is sh*t...

But overall, I agree, I''m not overly optimistic about the chances of Croft coming here...

Reporters don''t write the headlines - its the subs who do that when they lay out the pages...

thats a weird way of doing things its like an author writing a book and someone else coming up with the title....imagine Mr Dickins annoyance as he completes his finest work a treatise on the squalid conditions orphans of the day are found in only to find it has benn released under the title ''scrounging scum''

[Mr_Chimp 0]

As far as I understand it, book titles have to be ''approved'' by the publisher anyway, so no, it''s not that far off.

[blahblahblah 2]

So now we''re all experts in the newspaper industry as well as football ?

And all while watching daytime TV or not doing our own jobs...

Both the description and title sounds like a book of the last five years at Poorman Road.

Come on Blah, you must have realised by now that some people on these boards know absolutely everything there is to know in the world...

I''m on the second option, by the way, but I''m leaving in less than two weeks so I feel I''m allowed...

It''s the latter for me [:D]

I guess I could do both, but that would involve a screwdriver, 20 foot of cable and a big space in the wall where the bosses'' 42 inch plasma was.

Nope, best stick to skiving...

Me too GFE, nothing like having breakfast at 2 in the afternoon....apparently we''re shaving between 6 and 9 years off our lives in to the bargain (6 to 9 years of mid table obscurity less to endure in my book)
