Time to go Delia 0 Posted January 30, 2007 Fotheringham is free and wanted by nobody and we have bid £50,000 for Lappin , the ambition is stunning . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hog 0 Posted January 30, 2007 but at least its a start. I was starting to feel sick at the thought of just loans, again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fat Barman 0 Posted January 30, 2007 [quote user="ncfc1"]Fotheringham is free and wanted by nobody and we have bid £50,000 for Lappin , the ambition is stunning .[/quote]Good God! Yesterday people were moaning that Fotheringham would choose Rangers first (and Aberdeen & Hibernian were in for him too), so hardly ''wanted by nobody''! And we''re having a pop for trying to bring in a bargain are we? Christ, everyone has been asking why we never seem to find the good young players before their price goes through the roof, and now you won''t be happy unless you get another Hughes, or Etuhu? Muppet! (and I usually refrain from personal comments, so be honoured I could be bothered!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
komakino 282 Posted January 30, 2007 If this is true, it shows that ultimately the banks are running NCFC if this is all we are spending. Thanks Delia, now go and con thousands of supporters at another club. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bomber 57 Posted January 30, 2007 It really does make me sick - yesterday and days prior to that everyone moaning cos everyone else signing players and we are not - yet today we are apparently on the verge of at least signing one player in a much needed position and there is NCFC bemoaning the fact that he is a nobody - he has been playing in Switzerland and that is the probably the reason we have not heard of him and he was apparently wanted by other Scots clubs how many players can you name playing in Switzerland which is a very good league - this club cannot win can they - whatever they do they are in the wrong and it really beggars belief that when we sign someone the knives are out - some people would not be happy with Henry they really would''nt.

Zurich Canary 11 Posted January 30, 2007 Any signings have to be good.....ButI work in Switzerland and can assure everyone that the Swiss league is no better than Championship standard. FC Thun had a good run in the Champions league due to an alignment of the planets similar to that when norwich finished 3rd, FC Thun are close to the bottom of the Swiss league only two season later!

djc 0 Posted January 30, 2007 2 players in for a fee of approx £50,000 is good business, especially when they are both relatively young with potential.But still, we get people knocking it.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
charlies dad 0 Posted January 30, 2007 They havent signed yet, but if they do, they are more than welcome. Whoever they are... Fotheringham is quite highly rated and a full international, lets just hope these deals and more besides are done quickly. If it injects some passion and commitment into the team it cant be a bad thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
