paul moy 235 Posted July 7, 2013 We will have no proven Prem goalscorer so our chances of relegation will no doubt be increased. We should not sell until we have an adequate replacement. We are complacent IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smooth 114 Posted July 8, 2013 Relegated without him?I think if holt led our. Front line we would be relegated, his demise last season was dramatic, yes we can go on about tactics. But he scored 5 goals before the run in.If we had him leading our line I would be worried. We now have an exceptional threat, a threat upfront. Rvw will be feared by opposition fans and premiership players will not be aware of his skills, unlike holt. Rvw is going to lead and score goals.I do also think we were going to bring in another striker for second choice with holty down the pecking order on big bucks. So for me it is fine, we will get that second striker we now look at a third which I hope is hooper and then we have a four ready to light up the league for not just this season but for a few.It is the right piece of business. In any case I think this is more to do with him than the club, I think he has wanted to go, remember if he didn''t want to go loved Ncfc, the fans, the set up etc he would stay, ala lappin or hux. I think you will find that he will jump at was is a good proposition, but I would agree with most Wigan fans in their dull reaction to this signing, stats are good, but they will be looking thinking how much are we going to get out of him, a season? Maybe less. Fortune has been signed and will certainly help holty and they look for a third striker. But how much will they get out of him over the course of his contract.

Stuart Jarrold 0 Posted July 9, 2013 Jeeez, give it a rest. I don''t need to justify myself to you, but I will as your persistence is getting boringI have supported Norwich for over 33 years, went various seasons without missing a game. My first game was Norwich 3 Liverpool 5 when I was 6. Kevin Keelans last game if I remember correctly but more remembered for the Fashanu Goal.I have visited close to 70 grounds watching Norwich some which are not even there anymore. Roker Park, Baseball Ground, Plough Lane. Highfield Road to name a few.My views are my views only and as mentioned in the original post. I dont think Holt would even get into the top 20 of ''Legends'' at carrow road. As I said its an opinion and not because Im an ITFC fan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herman 9,711 Posted July 9, 2013 Whatever team you support,you are still talking nonsense.Holty IS a club legend and would easily get in the top 20. Probably top 10 for a large chunk of fans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Highland Canary 76 Posted July 9, 2013 Don''t have the longevity of many posters on here - been going regularly for 40 years this season - hard pushed to think of many more influential players as Holt over that period - certainly in my top 10, probably my top 5.

clarkey1972 0 Posted July 9, 2013 He would certainly make my starting 11Not that it matters, ive been a city fan since august 1981, named my first born Iwan after the big man himself and am hard pressed to think of a better no.9 in my 32 years.Wouldnt make your top 20, would love to see your list then.
