CanaryJames 0 Posted July 28, 2009 Sideshow Tim (who called Holt right ages ago) says there''s a spanners in the works, and the equally reliable cusdp says its all done and dusted! Not good for the nerves this!Are there definitely no hitches? I pray you''re right, as believe these two could be huge assets. Tonight would be when all is revealed I''d have thought, with an official unveiling tomorrow? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

singing canary 0 Posted July 28, 2009 Lee Too Expensive...Maric and Askou thought to be signing Posted by adm1n on 2009/7/28 13:53:28 (10 reads) News by the same author Just going to pass on what we have been lead to believe, and the source has been absolutely spot on with the other tips. Our tipster reckons that both Maric and Askou, will be signing their contracts with City, exactly when this will be announced they are not sure. As I said just passing on what we have been told. One thing we are sure of is that Alan Lee was out of Gunn''s price range, it isn''t anything that we didn''t expect to hear, after all we have to consider that Palace are said to still owe £400k to them down the Road, and Palace wanted to recoup all of that on any sale. Lee is 30 plus and not one of the most prolific scorers around, when money is tight you need to be wise with what you spend it on; I think that is a very wise move by all concerned, Grant Holt will do a similar job to what Lee would have done, but with the added precious commodity Goals. The fact remains that Holt was one of the first names on the list Gunn handed McNally of wanted players; tells you that Gunn had more or less resigned himself to not getting Lee. sounds like your right ... !!! good call if it comes off ..

KCanary 0 Posted July 28, 2009 I bet they announce it Thurs/Fri in the hope that more people will filter on down to the Wigan game just like last week for the Man Utd kids game, to see the new players.

Maric and Askou are certainly unknown quantities but I was impressed with the latter on Saturday.

CanaryJames 0 Posted July 28, 2009 "Playing" is a bit of an exaggeration though. By and large the only time Shackell and Lee played last year was for us...neither were wanted by their actual clubs.I''d take Maric over Lee, as I think the latter would cost more and is the wrong side of 30. Can''t comment on Askou, but I''ve heard good things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You''re not though are you? You''re writing them off as no good. Players that are nowhere near as good as the in demand Shackell and Lee. I personally like Shackell and Lee but I am prepared to keep an open mind about two players who want to move to England to further their careers. Just give them a chance. By all means slate Askou when he constantly fails to get close to the oposing centre forward or when Maric fails to hit that barn door that Jamie keeps trying to hit too. BUT just give them a chance before you decide they are no good because we haven''t paid millions for them or because Barcelona B or Celta Vigo B are nowhere near as great as the mighty city!!
