Yellow Messiah 0 Posted May 22, 2012 In a Darren Huckerby like manner, could it happen?If a deal has been agreed, then what better way than to release it tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyCanary 0 Posted May 22, 2012 Can''t see it. It''s not just a normal game - it''s Drurys night. It''d be really unfair to make it about anything else other than Drurys loyalty to our club. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supermarket Prodigy 0 Posted May 22, 2012 If the news is true, I could see it coming out tonight!Half-time or kick-off, could really crank up the atmosphere! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lake district canary 0 Posted May 22, 2012 I wish people would stop saying - "It''s Drury''s night". Yes, its a celebration for him - well deserved - but the world doesn''t stop because ''it''s Drury''s night''. There are few occasions such as tonight where everyone can just enjoy themselves. Its a celebration/party - whatever you want to call it, Holt signing a new three year contract would add to the occasion imo - a cause for further celebration - or maybe there are those who would rather he didn''t sign??

Yellowbeagle 0 Posted May 22, 2012 I know it''s unlikely but maybe they''ll announce all the new deals for players who we need to stay on, and maybe Drury is one of those. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supermarket Prodigy 0 Posted May 22, 2012 That would be a nice touch, announce Holt AND Drury signing new deals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chicken 0 Posted May 22, 2012 I did wonder when Wilbraham and Whitbread were released if this meant some of the other out of contract players would have their contract renewals announced at tonights game - Drury included.It''s a hard one to call. If Drury isn''t one of the players to be having his contract renewed it would be a rather harsh send off to watch other players being clapped and cheered when you stand and watch knowing that this is the last time you will don the Yellow and Green.

drurys testamonials V 15 0 Posted May 22, 2012 Have any other testimonial matches, Norwich or otherwise, announced new deals for other players? I think the Holt situation has taken over far more than it should have done already.Can''t say I''ve heard of it before.It is a night to celebrate Drury''s commitment to the club.

Canarygeorge 0 Posted May 22, 2012 Adam Drury just said he doesn''t if he''s playing from the start, maybe for 10 minutes, or not at all, Lambert hasn''t told anyone.Also Drury said he still doesn''t know if it''s his last game for us or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
