Mister Chops 7 Posted August 30, 2008 [quote user="jim blair"]http://www.eveningnews24.co.uk/content/sport/story.aspx?brand=ENOnline&category=Sport&tBrand=ENOnline&tCategory=Sport&itemid=NOED29%20Aug%202008%2017%3A34%3A18%3A857[/quote]I think this is just lazy desperate journalism:(a) Scowcroft is reported to be thinking over a move to last season''s play-off finalists, Bristol City. He is reported to be spending the weekend deciding if he wants to move to Ashton Gate. (b) Butwith the August transfer window closing at midnight on Monday and Cityboss Glenn Roeder''s search for a striker still unresolved, there couldstill be time to him to weigh in with a late bid.So he''s likely to sign for Bristol City, and we haven''t made a bid or even enquired yet - it''s just that he''s available and therefore we are linked with him.

scott 0 Posted August 30, 2008 Scowcroft or Alan Lee although binners would improve our forward line end of as they can hold the ball up and compete for high balls with big tall defenders, something we are lacking at present! But like some have said this is just a journalist speculating, nowt more! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,735 Posted August 30, 2008 If we signed Scowcroft, I''ll be handing my season ticket back to the club ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Branston Pickle 3,633 Posted August 30, 2008 That''s a bit ott - imo Scowcroft is as good as most of the other links we''ve had. I couldn''t care a toss about his Binner roots. If he''s good enough to have played c30 games last season in this division (for a side that finished in the play-offs) then he is good enough for us. But this does smack of lazy journalism - there is nothing in the article to remotely suggest we are interested, other than that he is a striker and might be moving.

scott 0 Posted August 30, 2008 End of the day who is there out there who we can sign and the sort of player who most fans would like to see come in probably isn''t going to come looking at our recent transfer activity and the fact we won''t spend any money! The legend that is Iwan Roberts was an excellent header of the ball, could hold it up, could pass the ball and scored goals. - Thats exactly what we need now a player of Iwan ilk but I''d say a player of the similar ability level now would be out of our reach financially unless we can unearth a gem somewhere!
