RvWs 4 year contract 0 Posted July 11, 2013 [quote user="jas the barclay king"]not saying i disbelieve the OP but if you don''t know what Hooper looks like then how do you know he looked like Hooper?[/quote]Fair comment.I have to admit I worded the OP and tweets poorly.When I say I didnt fully recognise him I meant in relation to McNally. I''ve seen McNally both on the tele and in real life (mainly around Carrow Road) so I knew it was definitely him. R.E Hooper: I''ve never seen him close up (with my own eyes) before just on TV playing for Celtic.He didnt play in the Celtic Norwich away game so I wouldnt have seen him then.

Yellow Shirt 17 Posted July 11, 2013 I can''t say I''m excited enough about Hooper to raise much feeling about this either way.Am I the only one who feels he isn''t anywhere near the caliber of the other players we are being linked with (and signing)?

4th floor 4 Posted July 11, 2013 Celtic are in Berlin at the moment according to their facebook page and KLM would probably be quickest and easiest from anywhere in Europe to Norwich. Going via London is more prone to delays and generally a hassle.09:15 Berlin10:40 Amsterdam13:30 Amsterdam13:20 NorwichYou''d need to add on about an hour for checking in at Berlin, so he''d get to the airport at around 8am and be at Carrow Road by say 2pm after enjoying lunch at Schiphol.

That extra space could mean he has talks about more than one leaving and I wouldn''t put it past McN to tease the fans a bit as he does sometimes in his Twitter responses.

Deals can be done quite quickly and it could be that the Wigan thing was done over the weekend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
