First Wazzock 902 Posted May 20, 2009 I don''t believe a word, especially as Purse has gone to Sheffield Wednesday ! Big News From Carrow Road Leroy is coming!You heard it here first everybody, Spotted in the City yesterday it looks like Leroy Lita is coming back to Norwich City on a free transfer afte rbeing released from Reading, it seems Gunny has promised him a guaranteed starting place next season which is what he is looking for, However, rumour is he will only be given a 1 year deal as he doesn''t want to stay in league 1 any longer than that. In other NCFC news: Since David Marshalls £500,000 move to Cardiff, Gunny will move quickly to offer current no. 2 Stuart Nelson a new deal and it will be down to him to hold down the number 1 shirt and keep Declan Rudd in the reserves for a few more seasons yet. On the buying side of things Gunny seems to be interested in a few players, the main one at the moment being Matthew (Matty) Gill from Exeter, he is a very good league one midfielder who was integral to Exeters promotion last season and being a local lad is eager to join his childhood club, possibly a fee around the £100k mark, it is thought that he will be a replacement for Clingan. Gunny also seems to be lining up a move for Crystal Palace striker Alan Lee who has already made his love of the club clear, it is being rumoured that this could involve Hoolahan goin the other way in a swap deal. Most of the new playing staff would have to come from free transfers with these expected to include released Cardiff skipper Darren Purse who wa in talks with Norwich in January, he''s seen as the ideal CB partner for Doherty.Another one appears to be Northamptons Giles Coke who looks set to leave after Northamptons Relegation. So to sum up, Norwich Citys transfer activity is going to look a bit like this. . Outs:Clingan: £1.5m (Fulham) Hoolahan: Swap + £250K (Crystal Palace) Cort (released) Marshall: £500K (Cardiff) Croft: free (Derby) Fotheringham (released) Eagle (released) Ins: Leroy Lita: Free (unattached) Darren Purse: Free (unattached) Alan Lee: Swap (Crystal Palace)Matty Gill: £100K (Exeter)Giles Coke: Free (Northampton) Ryan Bertrand: Loan (Chelsea) Danny Graham: £250k (Carlisle) Mark Tyler: Free (Peterborough) Darren Huckerby: Free in November when his San Jose contract expires.

It''s bonkers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tangible Fixed Assets anyone? 0 Posted May 20, 2009 Graham (striker at Carlisle) is 24 in August. Is he available on a bosman free in August or do you have to be 24 at the end of June 09 to qualify for a Bosman free. Carlisle have offered him a new contract but as far as I know he''s not signed it yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

norfolkchance1 0 Posted May 21, 2009 Some of the people who write on these football rumours sites are writing absolute horse dung.I reckon we should work out a good rumour about a player possibly going to Ipswich (for example) and then get other people to corroborate it true and see if we can get it into the mainstream media. (a player from the romanian 3rd division would be a good one -claim him to be the next Gheorge Hagi or something similar) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sideshow Tim 110 Posted May 21, 2009 Apparently we are looking at Grant Holt, if Shrewsbury don''t get promoted on Saturday there''s a strong possibility that he''s coming this-a-way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
