Alex Moss 2,165 Posted March 19, 2011 I hate to say it pal, but i think you''re going to get slaughtered for starting another CMS thread! But to answer your question. Is he worth £2.5mil? He looks it. Is he worth £5mill? No Barry, he isn''t. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

......and Smith must score. 1,360 Posted March 19, 2011 I''ve heard of hyper-inflation but this really is taking the ****.Peterborough Evening Telegraph, Thur 17th March, quoting Posh owner Darragh MacAnthony regarding CMS fee....Norwich came in strong for Craig last Friday offering £1.5 million straight up and another £1 million " If £2 million was offered straight up today with £1 million guaranteed add-ons then Craig would be allowed to go".Peterborough Evening Telegraph, Sat 19th March, quoting Barry Fry....." Norwich had their one-off opportunity to sign Craig and it didn''t happen....... They could offer me £5 million today and I''d reject it. Me, the chairman and the manager have agreed that there will be disruption to our squad as we try and get back in the Championship. No word of a lie I have had 22 clubs interested in him. I have deals lined up for him for the summer that he will love ".Sounds like they''re desperate to do business.Expect to see CMS in a Norwich shirt by close of business on Thursday methinks.......

TIL 1010 4,798 Posted March 19, 2011 [quote user="Canary Boy"]Do you think CMS is way over-priced for a League One striker? At 27 years old, 3m is a lot of money, especially as we are close to Premirship footy...could he cut it at Championship level, let alone the top flight. I''d go for someone like Billy Sharp £1.1m paid by Doncaster who has consistently scored at this level (14 this year for a crummy team), Nugent at Portsmouth or Will Hoskins at Bristol Rovers...anyone who has scored 16 goals at a team in relegation has got to be good. Surely the above would be better value for money.

Bill 1,788 Posted March 19, 2011 For £5m we could probably buy the club, ground players and pay Mr Fry''s pie allowancethough on second thoughts, the last one might mean an extra half million add on fee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TIL 1010 4,798 Posted March 19, 2011 [quote user="BlyBlyBabes"]Why is it,as many say, that it is more fanciful for QPR to be interested in Holt than it is for us to be interested in CMS? The logic of that beats me. Of course Holt won''t be going and it is doubtful if CMS will be coming'' but that doesn''t nullify my question. OTBC[/quote]"as many say" is news to me so please enlighten me as to who you are talking about Bly.Good to see you starting yet another thread involving CMS.[:''(] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Row D Seat 7 0 Posted March 20, 2011 Really sick of all this Peterborough/CMS/Dion/Norwich stuff now. We''ve been told what happened. We don''t know what''s going to happen over the next week. Nobody on here really knows anything, despite what they might say.Talk of Ricky Lambert, Victor Moses etc etc is most likely bo llocks.Ffs go outside, it''s a decent day. I might take my own advice on that one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cantiaci Canary 558 Posted March 20, 2011 "I heard Ricky Lambert is coming in on loan"Yes please! I''m sure someone will definitely be in by Thursday. NCFC will take the punt. When will an opportunity like this arise again? Don''t fancy promotion next year with a mixture of Wigan/WestHam/WestBrom/Birmingham& Wolves coming down.Now''s the season to do it!!!

Baracouda 47 Posted March 20, 2011 Thanks for info Matt, With those sides coming down and the sides which would stay down if we went up. Could be quite a few good players available in the summer... Bellamy available for a return? Cardiff surely couldn''t afford him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
