we8wba 0 Posted June 11, 2008 you have no defence and need to defendersno fee as free transfernow i cant really comment as dont watch him regularly but i think you need him at least in your squad for next season! im not saying play the guy for 46games when saying keep him but your squad is wafer thinall these players seem to be departing norwich on free''s in past 6months but no one really seems to be replacing them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xxxx 0 Posted June 11, 2008 Maybe we are so good we are going to play with one centre half , then again if the Doc does leave maybe we will buy two new ones , i expect we will manage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraz 2 Posted June 11, 2008 Problem with Doc is that is is an average championship Defender on a good day and the contract he is on goes back to when we signed him when we were in the prem. This would mean he''s probably on 10k a week (just an estimate)which would mean he''s probably one of the top earners at the club.Norwich can''t offer him a similar contract to what he''s on because for those wages you would expect to pay one of the best players in the championship, and he is not at that level & that''s why we have to let him go.

WeAreYellows49 0 Posted June 11, 2008 lol I just wish he would go if he''s not going to sign a new contract, it''s not like he''s much cop anyhow. Ok so he improved a little under GR, but my heart wouldn''t be broken if he went to the USofA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AndyJR 0 Posted June 11, 2008 Maybe he''s waiting to see who we sign and thus how ambitious we are going to be this season. Frankly a team that needs a Docherty in it has little ambition so I think he may as well just leave now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BGG&YPOS 0 Posted June 11, 2008 He is the type of player that GR is looking for, as he can play CB, RB and as a Striker.[;)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
