Have Heart 0 Posted August 18, 2008 I don''t know how much truth is in this, but i have a couple of friends who support Bury, and on the weekend the gossip was Bishop to norwich nearly a done deal.Any one else heard anything on this transfer? I know someone mentioned a medical on friday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crafty Canary 490 Posted August 18, 2008 Another rumour. One of the thousands we have already had. Unless he''s available for a tenner and a meal for 2 at Yellers it''s not likely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All i''m saying is this rumour has come from the bury fans[/quote]It was Canary fans who started the rumours on Bury message forums late last week. Bury lot knew nothing about it.Bishop missed training on Thursday with a slight injury, did some training on Friday morning but did not appear because he was not fully fit according to the club and they did not want to risk him. They managed quite well at Chesterfield without him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

theoneandonlycullum 0 Posted August 19, 2008 Quote from the Daily Star (I know, very reliable): "Norwich boss Glen Roader is set to end his long search for a striker with a £750,000 swoop for Bury''s Andy Bishop." Obviously one for the rumour mill but I wouldnt mind if Roader brought him here! Fingers Crossed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
