E I E I E I O 0 Posted January 31, 2013 2 clubs that clearly have great relations, as shown by 2 Pre-Season games!One club shows great resolve to hold onto their prized asset!One fools its fans into thinking it was serious about actually signing a striker should it miss out on a big windfall again, whilst not appearing to be over prudent!! Fact!! if you have 7 Million to spend and want a striker there are plenty around!! I am not saying this is fact but stranger things could of happened???

Highland Canary 76 Posted January 31, 2013 I''m not a great believer in conspiracy. I prefer the more usual explanation for events not transpiring in the way that might be hoped. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cantiaci Canary 556 Posted January 31, 2013 If you honestly believe that we had no intention of signing Hooper then you must be mad. It really is very simple. Celtic value Hooper higher than we estimated - he has 18 months left and hasn''t signed a new contract so it is hardly surprising that we thought we could sign him but Celtic have proved more stubborn than we predicted. There are £7M strikers out there but who is to say that they are 1) appropriate, 2) interested in coming to Norfolk and 3) available? Let''s trust our club ... they''ve served us pretty well for the past 3 years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
