Evil Monkey 52 Posted July 30, 2008 Unless he gave the interview 15 minutes into the first half, I''d say no it isn''t... [:P]I''m sure it was just a rough timeline, they''ll probably be in tomorrow...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canary86 0 Posted July 30, 2008 [quote user="Carrow Roeder"]And no striker... hmm... Maybe Glenn''s left his watch to the Swedish time zone and forgot to change it on the way back home![/quote] Are Swedish hours longer than English ones? lol... sorry couldnt resist...

Lincs CR 0 Posted July 30, 2008 I have no idea to be honest lolI did say in a previous match thread i knew nothing about time zones! :)(i say hoping i would be right haha)Hopefully he will come through tomorrow anyway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Binky 0 Posted July 30, 2008 Roeder''s exact wotrds were reported as: “There''ll be one in the next 48 hours who will be six foot tall but you wouldn''t think of him as a big striker as such he''s just a beautiful mover, a fantastic mover"My money is on that Hungarian Laszlo Koteles being confirmed tomorrow. Of course some of you are thinking he''s a big ''Keeper - but I think he could be more than that. He could just be a beautiful mover, a fantastic mover - and we get two positions filled for the price of one!.(Roeder also apparently said that "Doherty is bad news". Could have phrased that better).

Camuldonum 0 Posted July 30, 2008 [quote user="Salahuddin"]What makes you think that camu? [/quote]According to the Star they think the Portsmouth link is a goer - it seems to have come via ''Arry talking about something else. I am not saying there will be anything tonight because I don''t know but we got the impression that there is something pending. It''s the "keep looking at the website" answer which tends to give away something pending. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NCFC_Thain 0 Posted July 31, 2008 Thats the thing CLOSE to signing a striker. Football isn''t an exact science just be patient. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ivana_rubyatitz 6 Posted July 31, 2008 I will start to panic when we havent got a striker in by the middle of next week - it is clear from Glenn''s comments that we are looking and I doubnt he will allow himself to look daft by not getting reinforcements in that position. It would be nice to get whoever they are in though so they can get integrated with the rest of the squad before Coventry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
can u sit down please 0 Posted July 31, 2008 But on FM the transfers are so simple and when they say deals are close they are! Sack Roeder for taking his time! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cottaging Canary 0 Posted July 31, 2008 Some of the responses I''ve seen to this "48 hour" quote are pathetic. It was a rough time scale, something said in a post-match interview. Was Roeder supposed to predict the exact time this guy will sign?It sounds all but a done deal, I expect there''ll be an announcement today or tomorrow. P.S CUSDP, this is not aimed at you, I got your super Thursday morning fun joke! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
