Bobert 0 Posted June 28, 2010 I am told that the lads are back in training at Colney already. Seems they are going to hit the ground running, Great stuff. Wonder who the goal keepers are that are getting fit. Must be more than two surely. Bit far for me to go and have a look. Could one of you resting on your Summer holidays go and have a peep. If the temperature really is in the 30''s must be a bugger running round the pitch! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Slob 0 Posted June 28, 2010 I heard Marlon Harewood was training at Colney, don''t know if it''s true or not Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bristol_canary 0 Posted June 28, 2010 is he the bugger running around the pitch? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boyo 0 Posted June 28, 2010 I thought most teams were back on July the 1st including us which is why Lambert wants his squad finished by then? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SUPER YELLOW CANARY 0 Posted June 28, 2010 It must be soon. Russel martin is still on holiday but is attending the norfolk show so he must be back tomorrow? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bobert 0 Posted June 28, 2010 A 31 yr old striker who once cost £4 million has to be worth a look at. Sounds good to me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Superflash 0 Posted June 28, 2010 [quote user="bristol_canary"]is he the bugger running around the pitch?[/quote]I freely admit, the unexpected comment above made me chuckle like a little schoolgirl. I don''t know why, as it wasn''t the most hilarious thing ever, but it caught me off guard. I applaud you, Bristol Canary. Back on topic, the 1st is on Thursday, but then an extra couple of days wouldn''t exactly hurt. Even if they just do light gym stuff and maybe a brief kick about, it''s a chance for the newer lads to blend in and get to know the facilities. Who knows, there may be a signing or two coming in this week as well to coincide with the start of the pre-season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
William Darby 0 Posted June 28, 2010 Yeah probably a brief check in. Like a weigh in and a get together Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shiplee15 0 Posted June 28, 2010 he might''ve cost that at some point but he isnt worth it now.and i dont rate him too highly - too lazy and his goal average isnt good enough Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NCFC Sinky 0 Posted June 28, 2010 yeah but Carl Cort was worth £7million at one point... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Punting Canary 0 Posted June 28, 2010 What a lot of people never heard about was that one of the reasons Colchester beat us 7-1 last year in the first game was that Lambert had the Colchester players in for pre season 3 weeks before any other League 1 Club. Now I am not sure when the other clubs have got their players in this year but you certainly get the feeling he doesn''t leave anything to chance. Compare this to how undercooked our boys were and the lack of cohesion due to some late arrivals during pre season training might give you some idea why Gunn was sacked and Lambert brought in.

thirdlion 0 Posted June 28, 2010 I think the date of preseason training for Gunn was academic. No amount of preparation can make up for what he lacked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bill 1,788 Posted June 28, 2010 Lambert had prepared for that game, identified our weaknesses etcI think Gunn''s lack of preperation, post amatch analysis was what did for him. Even without that heavy defeat McNally had quickly identified Gunn wasn''t the man for that job.Thankfully this more professional attitude appears to be the norm in the club now. No more sentimentality towards folk simply because they previously had played for the club.Ruthless determination. That''s what we want. And frankly if it goes as far as shooting a few to ''encourage'' the others, so bit it. Premiership here we come. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
