ca 1 Posted October 13, 2008 Guess our sell on clause could be about 20% so that would give us £400k to spend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ellis206 0 Posted October 13, 2008 Truth of the matter is, if Joe Lewis had stayed with Norwich, he wouldn''t be worth anything near £2 million due to him never playing in our first team! Marshall is better anyway IMO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Graham Humphrey 13 Posted October 13, 2008 So if we''d kept him, how many games would he have played for us by now, I wonder...? I think the answer is ''none'' so I don''t really see why people are getting so worked up about it to be honest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stone Cold 0 Posted October 13, 2008 People use Joe Lewis as a stick to beat Roeder with as others have said if he were still here he would have played no first team games as we have a young international goalkeeper who we bought for 1 million not long ago there aren''t many managers who wouldn''t have taken good money for a player who had made no first team apperances and no matter how highly rated would be warming the bench in all reality for a number of years to come ! Hardly good for Lewis''s career either is it ?Some people need to remember were not man utd etc who can afford to loan out players for a number of seasons until we intend to use them as we need the money on offer to invest in other transfers and pay players wages.I expect to be shot down but there aren''t many players Roeder has let go that I would rather still have here right now and that includes Huckerby.

It isn''t a "cock up" until Marshall is sold/leaves.And you don''t know whether Roeder needed to sell him to balance the books - you''re just assuming, as usual, that Roeder doesn''t know what he is doing.

Marshall is better anyway IMO[/quote]clearly, loaning young players out can increase their value if they''re any good, that is...for example, after proving his ability with us last season, ched evans was rumoured to be subject of interest from cardiff and others in the summer - £millions more than if he''d stayed in man city reserves...how much is plastic worth after his peformances for city last season and this, rather than if he stayed in the reserves???lewis was rumoured to be interesting the likes of man u as early as last jan!!! obviously, being loaned out didn''t do the boy any harm, and if this bid is to be believed posh have done very nicely...so if you join up the thinking - posh paid a club record for young joe - maybe cos their savy ex-agent manager had already made informal enquires about joes actual worth - and so got the player on the cheap...how cr@p does the affair make NCFC look to the outside footy world???players loaned in upto the hilt, and yet we let our genuine talents go for jack???meanwhile, we sold lewis and brown - bought matty patty, and then roedy declared tiny taylor overvalued...yeah right///sounds like, we''d undervalued lewis as well...maybe if we''d continued to loan young lewis out, we''d be sitting pretty right now - £2m would cover the black hole left from the turners walking....eh???

What GR should have done (unless it was necessary to balance the books) was leave him out on loan until the end of the season, and make a decision between him and Marshall at the end of the season. Lewis caught the attention of a few clubs during his short spell at Morecambe, and that would only have increased with the U21 call-up. If GR had decided to sell him in the summer, we''d have got 100% of the price. Very disappointing to see him go in the first place, even more so to lose money on the deal.

Lee Camp has been dislodged by new signing Radek Cerny this season, and has asked to leave. Not sure why Joe would go there to sit on the bench, when he''s number 1 at Posh.

Big difference.[/quote]True - it''s too soon to judge. I''m not one for carping at everything that GR does, but on this occasion I''m convinced he was wrong - if only because we got rid of a rare home-produced player with both talent and motivation. If he''s sold in the next year for significantly more than £400K, I (and many others) will have been proved right. If not, I''ll apologise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
