I am a Banana 0 Posted August 24, 2010 [quote user="pete_norw"][quote user="paul moy"]I can''t believe that Newcastle have let him go. He''s far better than Harper IMO.[/quote]Word has it that he turned down 4 championship clubs first as he was hoping to come back here, and he went to Celtic because he didn''t want to play against us, ???????????? [/quote]Hux did the same, but moving to america instead of some champ clubs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary Poirot 1 Posted August 25, 2010 what a complete waste of time for Forster to go to Celtic. The Scottish Premiership is about the standard of the lower end of League 1 / upper end of league 2 (Robert Eagle moved to Inverness Cally - I say no more) - so no progression for him this season. He should''ve joined us - at least then he''d be playing at a higher level. Most of the best of Scotland (players and managers) tend to move to the Championship these days as they know it''s a step up from the Scottish Premier.

Far more than any Championship club does.It''s a good move for him. If he plays he should do well, and people will notice him, what with being at such a big name club, an'' all that.Fraser for England! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For whatever reason us and the Geordie''s couldn''t reach an agreement so we''ve got Ruddy and Celtic have Forster. Let''s get behind big John and move on from Fraser whilst wishing him the very best up in Scotland. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheGoogler 324 Posted August 27, 2010 I think it''s a good move for him. And after last night''s poor performance by Zaluska, I''d be absolutely appauled if Frasier didn''t get a shot in goal up there. I think if he can do up there what he did here and not let the nerves get the better of him, you''ll see Forster come back a far, far better keeper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
