PurpleCanary 5,587 Posted December 6, 2012 [quote user="nutty nigel"]Didn''t Gunny sign Gow? [/quote] He did, nutty. That said, it is likely Roeder had wanted to buy Gow the previous summer. There was at least one deal that was on the point of being completed that then got scuppered by Cullum going public with his "£20m" for transfers, with the agent promptly demanding more money. From what was said later I suspect Gow was the player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,649 Posted December 6, 2012 I wouldn''t be surprised Purple. But like Lambert coveting Holt and Gow is still a Gunn signing along with Holt! :) When we first saw Gow and Mooney in tandem we thought we had something a bit good! Anyone else remember that?

Muffles 8 Posted December 6, 2012 I remember Gow having lots of little tricks and Mooney seemingly had a real eye for goal.... but just didn''t happen. I also remember Cody coming on against Cardiff, racing through and rounding the ''keeper to score on his debut and thinking we had something special too.

ZLF 275 Posted December 6, 2012 [quote user="Muffles"]Ryan Bertrand (loan) Mo Camara (loan)Sammy ClinganChed Evans (loan) Kieran Gibbs (loan)Wes HoolahanLita Leroy (loan)Arturo Lupoli (loan)Dejan StefanovicMartin Taylor (loan)[/quote] 5 of 17 loans and 3 of 6 full transfers aint a good return - stefanovic was probably unlucky so only just scrapes in as does lupoli who seemed ok but roeder said no. Clingan I think was flattered by being surrounded by players worse than he was so makes it but I cant say I was a fan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[/quote]I thinik the Cardiff home game which we won 2-0 was Mooney and Gow''s debut was it not? I seem to remember they were on fire in that game and then proceeded to do bugger all for the rest of the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
