RobertMack 0 Posted May 28, 2008 This should be a really interesting test of our ability to draw in players that are being chased by many other similar clubs. If weve made it public we want them it will be a shame to lose out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Chirp 0 Posted May 28, 2008 sorry to be a party pooper but my mate i work next to has read the same thing only roeder''s name was replaced by alan pardew.. we might be in for him but so are everyone else...

Carlos Valderrama 0 Posted May 28, 2008 Its a promising sign though. And if we can go balls out and get these 2 it signals our intent for next season, and hopefully sends a promising message to anyone else thinking of signing.Come on City, give us something to shout about for a change.

WeAreYellows49 0 Posted May 28, 2008 [quote user="colneycanary"]Can someone copy the link again please. It won''t highlight it on a macbook!!!![/quote] Taken from Evening newsNorwich City boss Glenn Roeder has got the green light to launch a double transfer bid for Blackpool duo Wes Hoolahan and Kaspars Gorkss.Seasiders'' chief Simon Grayson - himself heavily linked with the vacant managerial hot seat at former club Leicester City - is braced for interest in the key duo, who reportedly have release clauses in their Bloomfield Road contracts.Latvian hardman Gorkss was recently touted with a potential £250,000 Carrow Road switch while Roeder is a confirmed admirer of Hoolahan. The 25-year-old is poised for his Republic of Ireland senior debut in tomorrow''s friendly against Colombia at Fulham''s Craven Cottage. Charlton boss Alan Pardew is ready to launch an official approach for the talented midfielder that could spark a Championship bidding war.“We have to make sure we are prepared for one or two players going,” admitted Grayson. “You have to be aware that the players mentioned, and others who have attracted interest, could leave the club. We don''t want them to leave, but we have to make sure we have players who are available to replace them if they do.”The versatile Gorkss can operate at full back and central defence - a key area for Roeder''s summer recruitment drive with former Republic international Gary Doherty stalling on a fresh contract offer.Meanwhile, Clarets'' boss Owen Coyle yesterday confirmed he had upped his initial offer for City''s Scunthorpe striker target Martin Paterson. Roeder reportedly failed with a January transfer window move for the 14-goal former Stoke striker.The relegated Iron rejected Burnley''s opening bid last week, reportedly £400,000, but Coyle is ready to up the ante with Turf Moor hitman Kyle Lafferty attracting interest from Scottish giants Celtic and Rangers.“We have moved things on with different people,” Coyle told Burnley''s official site. “We did make an improved offer for Paterson and we''re awaiting Scunthorpe''s reply.” Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
O.T.B.C 0 Posted May 28, 2008 Both good players that would improve our team. Will take some doing to get Hoolahoop here as there will be many a team after him. I think he will go to a club who offer him the most money I''m afraid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hog 0 Posted May 28, 2008 Has now been given the green light? Why the delay, because now everyone is after them too. I can just see this as the Evening News trying to find some news for us, I am sure we had the "green light" a while ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colneycanary 0 Posted May 28, 2008 I disagree. I don''t know the in''s and out''s of things but the way Roeder was talking a month ago we were going to have to wait until the end of may(the surprise he was on about) before he could officially go after anybody. Yes we have been linked to quite a few players before now, but NOW he has been given the "Green light" to actually go after them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanaryOne 0 Posted May 28, 2008 Half the Championship will be after Hoolahan , chances of him signing for Norwich (who on last seasons form are no better than Blackpool ) are slim to nil . He will be looking for a step up in his career a club with genuine promotion claims , that isnt us is it , Gorkss we may have a chance with . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why don''t you join in the fun and games and start speculating who you would like, who you wouldn''t etc. Its much more enjoyable than trying to up your post count with boring negative drivvle.

Syteanric 1 Posted May 28, 2008 it doesnt actually say Roeder has been given the green light, or that we are linked with the players anywhere at all in that article!!!!

Its just ''paper speak'' for other teams are interested and their managers are prepared to let them go. It doesnt say he has got the green light from the board, does it?? I think it would have a few more facts and substance if this ''green-light'' came from the board / accountants / whoever else you think is giving ''green-lights'' If we sign Hoolahan, i will eat my cat. Hes off to Charlton. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
