First Wizard 0 Posted February 10, 2009 [quote user="WeAreYellows49"]Ok I try to turn a relative negative and make something positive, he said ''''I saw and spoke to the gaffer last Tuesday and I''m obviously happy to come back to a place I know so well and now just want to help us get away from the bottom of the table. "I want to play games and it''s a good opportunity for me especially at a club with so many players I know so well''''.I guess every little helps [:)][/quote]I get your drift 49, but picture Doc and Shacks across the middle?

kdncfc 0 Posted February 10, 2009 [quote user="glove1"]great to see the usual positivity on here[/quote]Shackell wasn''t good enough when he was here before and hasn''t exactly been very good at Wolves, I think many of us are desperate to be positive about our club when there is something to be positive about. This move doesn''t fall into that category, the only positive I can see is that there''s another player in the squad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bigmarkcanary 0 Posted February 10, 2009 Does anyone think it''s interesting that a second player has returned to City since Roeder left?I was hoping for Andrew Davies by the way - I take it this means that deal is definitely off?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Horse 0 Posted February 10, 2009 If we''re getting in Shackell does that mean the chance of Andrew Davies coming in is passing us by? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tribes 0 Posted February 10, 2009 Marshall; Otsemobar; Docherty; Shackell; Drury. With Croft; Fotheringham; Russell and Cureton. Sounds familiar. It''s almost as though Roeder had never been here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZLF 274 Posted February 10, 2009 Such a bacward step - this ex canary thing is getting beyond a joke - crichton replaces the man that replaced gunns inability to be goal keeper coach and now we the return of the poor shackell instead of davies who would at least have something to play for. Shacks will have to play well to win over his last 2 years performances Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Foxy is a Pleasure 0 Posted February 10, 2009 Sella player for a million then get him back on loan. I really cannot believe this but I''m not quite sure what to think.

lincoln canary (& Golden Coppel) 0 Posted February 10, 2009 lets be honest its another backward step by gunn. cureton and shackell were shipped out for a good reason and reagrdless of the fact roeder was the man to do it 90% of us fans agreed it was time for them to move on and supported the decision.since cureton has returned roeders judgement has been proved correct and i can only see it happen again with shacks. in fact looking at what gunns done so far it is worrying, bringing players like shackell and cureton back and letting players like lupes and bell leave!

colneycanary 0 Posted February 10, 2009 This has to be the most stupid bit of business i have ever seen a Norwich manager do. The thing is, we already know that Shackell aint very good and it was amazing that wolves paid 1 million for him. Then they found out for themselves how crap he was, hence why he doesn''t play!! More money on wages wasted on crap players! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

McNallyindahouse 0 Posted February 10, 2009 Lupoli didn''t want to be here and Bell was hardly setting the world alight!Bigger picture though is that we got the best part of a million quid for someone we couldn''t really afford to lose as defensive cover, who was better than Grounds and who we''ve now got back on wages only having banked the transfer fee. Seems like reasonable business to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alex_ncfc 662 Posted February 10, 2009 What the hell is going on at this club?Judging by Gunn''s comments yesterday about him expecting D''urso to do us a favour because of a Sony CD Walkman he gave him at his testimonial 12 years ago, I am now fully of the opinion that this man does not have a clue!

if I promise to behave 0 Posted February 10, 2009 It seems that Pulis has defenders injured at Stoke which is putting the Davies loan in doubt for now. Can''t blame that on Gunn. But is Shackell better than nothing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
