james norwich 0 Posted June 23, 2009 He will be our first major signing pre-season. £350,000 from Palace - a real asset - only player to show guts at th end of last season and an excellent aquisition for Division 3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

james norwich 0 Posted June 23, 2009 This will be a good signing for us this year - i can see him wacking 15 goals in this league. Probably a bit player if we were still in Division 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Time to go Delia 0 Posted June 23, 2009 Would be a real blow if we sign this old striker who is way over the hill and looking for a club to put his feet up at , would rather have kept Carl Cort . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mutley 0 Posted June 23, 2009 Don`t get me wrong, I don`t agree with the Carl Court guff, but I`m really not that convinced about Alan Lee. I think hes very one dimensional and would kill any midfield creativity. (not that we had much last season). We did look a better outfit with Mooney and Gow up front.

When Saturday Comes 0 Posted June 23, 2009 [quote user="First Wizard"][quote user="Salahuddin"]This would be great news, him and Cody up front![/quote]Is it only me who sees Cody Mac as still unproven?[/quote]Completely agree - Cody needs time to settle in and prove his worth - if he''s in our starting 11 I don''t see that as a sign of intent to come back up. However, would be chuffed if he proved me wrong with a hat full of goals.On a more positive note, would be genuinely thrilled if we signed Lee. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AJ 1,221 Posted June 23, 2009 Question; Where does the £350,000 come from? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluemike 0 Posted June 23, 2009 Take it from me, he will become very lazy after the first few games of the season, his work rate leaves a lot to be desired tbh. he also didnt hit the net that often from open play and spent half the time on his arse. Billy Clarke would be a much better option for you guys, did NCFC actually approach clarke ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lord Flashheart 0 Posted June 23, 2009 I don''t think Hoolahan wants to be here anymore. Besides, if he isn''t going to be played in his best position, what''s the point of him? Flog and make a profit or keep and use properly I say. [Y] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dublin signed though. Also, look out for a certain Darren Huckerby too (in an ambassadorial role)!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
