Canaries Utd 0 Posted June 26, 2012 And it''s not a players linked with us at any stage. I think Snodgrass is still on our radar!? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BroadstairsR 2,224 Posted June 26, 2012 Good point CU as I was certain that his first signing would be Snodgrass, at our expense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Smith 2,363 Posted June 26, 2012 Personally I don;t think Snodgrass will be on our radar any more although i would be delighted to be wrong on this as i rate him as a player. I just think that he was very much a Lambert target and partly because the two have the Livingston connection. I don;t think that anyone coming in and assessing our squad as a neutral (which is essentially the task Hughton has to undertake (although he;s obviously not nuetral)) would identify the wide midfield positions as a priority for strengthening this summer.

Harry 0 Posted June 26, 2012 I couldn''t give a flying f*** who Lambert has signed, Houghton is our manager and his signings are the only ones that interest me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BroadstairsR 2,224 Posted June 26, 2012 "I couldn''t give a flying f*** who Lambert has signed, Houghton is our manager and his signings are the only ones that interest me." If it impacts us, ie. combined targets that they might well get, then I am extremely interested. The same with his other signings, as everyone of them takes the liklihood of PL poaching our best recedes. No man is an island. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Norfolk Mustard 94 Posted June 26, 2012 Who has PL actually signed? I can see a Feyenoord player is in talks with Villa, but no firm signing yet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marvin the martian 0 Posted June 26, 2012 There are plenty of clubs that may be interested as the same players as us but there isn''t a " Martin Jol, Michael Laudrup, Sam Allerdyce , Nigel Atkins " interested in a player thread. This obsession with Lambert really has to stop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canaries Utd 0 Posted June 26, 2012 It''s not the obsession with Lambert, it was more of excitement that it wasn''t Snodgrass, I still believe he and Howson could be a formidable partnership next season. I hope that Howson has put in a good word. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This obsession with Lambert really has to stop. [/quote] So one week we are speculating about his possible signings for us, with no little degree of excitement, and the next there is a distinct possibility that he may grab them from under our noses. I will remain absorbed in Lambert''s dealings for some time yet, for suppporting NCFC includes being interested in rival club''s dealings, whether they are managed by Lambert or not. That is not obsessional, it is pretty obvious, to me at least. Sweeping PL''s intention under the carpet in such a way is not on. They could well impact our own fortunes.

Iceman 0 Posted June 26, 2012 Totally agree, I don''t want to hear what Lamberts doing, well will people realise we''ve moved on. If they are still interested in Lambert go to the AV site, but keep him off ours Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Personally I have a passing curiosity in what players Lambert signs as it may or may not be an indication of who might have been our targets this summer, but wont care beyond that. However i''m of course much more interested in who Hughton will sign. Like most people i get abit fed up with the multiple threads about the same thing, but thats something the moderators should be doing something about.

Nuff Said 5,227 Posted June 26, 2012 But it''s not about NCFC, it''s about anOther Football team. If you look we have a sub-forum for this subject. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canaries Utd 0 Posted June 26, 2012 What possible you are failing to remember, at this time we still have Lamberts two right hand men at our club who will know where we need to strengthen and therefore would surely be used in an advisory capacity by Hughton, if he ignores them, or fails to ask their advice more fool him.
