Derek Sims 0 Posted November 26, 2004 I heard from people that on Sky Sports today, Norwich have suposingly going to place a bid on Icelandic star Joey Gudjohnssen from German Club Bochum as his contract expires in the start of January. The Midfeilder/Striker has been reported all over german papers to about coming to England and reportably in Germany and England ... to Norwich Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Worthy Nigelton<br><br><br><br><br>Evening News Sports Page Headline 8th August 2007:<br><br>Henderson joins Dereham Town. 0 Posted November 26, 2004 Take it that its the same Joey Gudjohnssen that played for Villa last year? That would be a pretty good signing I would think... if its correct. I was unaware he played up front as well though.I think I can remember him doing a horrific "Muscat would be proud" tackle on Matt Upson in the Brum derby last year, luckily Upson got out of the way.

I would have thought that was a contradiction in terms.I mean they aren''t exactly blessed with silky skills, are they now?.If City were a conference league outfit, it might be a good signing, but we''re talking premiership here chaps.Laughable!.

Jerzy Krukowski 5 Posted November 26, 2004 You''re right, they''re all rubbish, just like Eidur Gudjohnsen. I wouldn''t have him at Carrow rd. Icelandic conference player, just gets a few lucky goals week in week out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karl Pilkington 0 Posted November 26, 2004 The only Gudjonsson they seem to have is a Thordur Gudjonsson and he has not played this season.VFL Bochum are third bottom in the German league. If he can''t get a game (a) he can''t be a "star" and (b) he can''t be that good!!!http://skysports.planetfootball.com/squadlist.asp?clid=431&cpid=22 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flecko 0 Posted November 26, 2004 [quote]Probably 50 or 60 % of all people in Iceland are called Gudjonsen[/quote]Icelandic surnames are make up from the parent''s christian name.So his dad was called Gudjohn.Magnus Magnusson''s dad was another Magnusand if Joey Gudjohnssen has a son, his surname would be Joesson.
