Nuff Said 5,092 Posted January 31, 2009 Mick McCarthy, Nigel Clough, Alan Irvine, Brian Laws, Lee Clark, Aidy Boothroyd and Alex McLeish according tothe Pink''un match report. They must have been looking at last minute potential buys and, to be honest, there can''t be that many candidates. Although I think Bryan probably did the right thing letting Bell go, I will not be happy if we sell again. I''d take a massive fee for someone if we had time to reinvest it, but it''s too late for that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
First Wizard 0 Posted January 31, 2009 I agree with what WAY49 said....asset stripping! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
if I promise to behave 0 Posted January 31, 2009 I know this doesn''t fit in with the usual conspiracy theories, but, at least one was probably taking the unusual opportunity to watch a team they are about to play. Mick McCarthy anyone? Also I believe Stock is a target for a number of clubs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sheffield uni Canary 0 Posted January 31, 2009 yeh and I think a lot of people are after Donny defender Matt Mills, so they could have been watching him as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Branston Pickle 3,638 Posted January 31, 2009 Jonathan Ross last night was rather amusing - William Shatner is an interesting guy!I don''t see any particular reason for conspiracies - Donny is well served by motorways, we were the only game being played yesterday, and either Donny or us will be playing these sides in the coming weeks - so it would have been more of a surprise had there been none of those guys there. Of course, if the game had been at Carrow Road there might have been something more to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nuff Said 5,092 Posted January 31, 2009 Agreed most were probably there to have a look at a coupe of rivals,Clough especially, but Boothroyd is interesting. Wonder if Gunnie knew? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Bump 0 Posted January 31, 2009 Boothroyd is looking at the team he will take over in the summer. Okay maybe not now he''s seen it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Fish Seller 0 Posted January 31, 2009 Maybe they''ve read in the media that Neil Doncaster has publicly said we might have to sell players in order to bring in new faces and they are looking to see if there''s anyone worth buying? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sheffield uni Canary 0 Posted January 31, 2009 looks like Ian Butterworth was there as well maybe he will become our assistant manager if we can afford the compensation. http://new.pinkun.com/content/ncfc/story.aspx?brand=PINKUNOnline&category=Norwich&tBrand=PINKUNOnline&tCategory=Norwich&itemid=NOED31%20Jan%202009%2011%3A10%3A16%3A213 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dean Coneys boots 1,398 Posted January 31, 2009 Vultures hovering over the carrion....a certain Mr Croft being one of the few remaining tasty morsels worth plucking from the rotting corpse that is the football club which has been stripped of its assetts overs the last five years.
