lake district canary 4,552 Posted July 30, 2013 [quote user="Hog"]lol so much for Pete''s brave new start to life on this forum.....[/quote]Its always the same few posters who can''t just discuss with decent argument, but have to try and discredit the poster rather than his post. I am always prepared to argue my corner - if it is to do with the discussion - unfortunately, some others see it as an opportunity to twist what is being said merely to score points.

Herman 9,842 Posted July 30, 2013 The question is, are West Ham moving for Snoddy?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paul moy 235 Posted July 30, 2013 [quote user="Morisons Prozac"]And yet another tread descend into irrelevant arguments[/quote]Indeed, because some posters cannot avoid resorting to personal abuse rather than showing respect and attempting to argue a good point.

dhickl 0 Posted July 30, 2013 ok, back to the topic... Snoddy was signed as not proven in the Premiership, and his contract would probably reflect that. He has now proven himself, and is also seeing the big name signings coming in - and probably aware of the range of their salary. Although he is happy at the club, he wants parity in wages, and wants to speak to the manager about it. It would help his bargaining position if he could show that he is valued and wanted elsewhere. In steps the agent, a couple of calls around clubs, and reporters, and you have a story in the press. A few weeks later, the Norwich are delighted to announce they have tied Snodgrass down to an extended contract. ...but this theory couldn''t happen could it!

Norwich or die tryin! 0 Posted July 30, 2013 Can''t beleive some of the views on Snoddy onthis thread. Snoddy was by far our best attacking player last season in his debut season and he is our biggest asset after Ruddy i reckon. Not that i think there''s any truth in the rumours one bit.

Webbo118 0 Posted July 30, 2013 [quote user="lake district canary"][quote user="Bill Car"]And Alfie Haaland was that “frustration” or “controlled anger”?[/quote]That was revenge. I never said Keane was a saint.[/quote]I was also going to ask how you distinguish whether a player is frustrated or angry but now we have another item - revenge. When a player sets out to get revenge, can it be accompanied by anger or frustration or perhaps both? I am sure you are going to tell me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Olly 0 Posted July 30, 2013 Jack Sullivan @jsullivanwhu We hope to sign right sided striker within 48 hrs. Terms agreed with his club. Hes a very exciting prospect. When its done I’ll tell u.It''s some player from Sweden or a guy called Emineke apparantly, Snoddy stuff if pure hogwash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kick it off 1,956 Posted July 31, 2013 No chance it''s Emineke. He''s going back to Fenerbahce for around £8.5mill. WHU can''t afford that according to Fat Sam. Very good player though. Would score goals in the Prem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thorny 0 Posted July 31, 2013 Can''t see West Ham spending that much more after Carroll - all their eggs now in one basket there for big transfers. Still maintain it has to £5+mil for them to even to make our board raise an eyebrow and the deal they deliver better than we can offer.They''ll get a cheap European import or lower league upstart to try and break into their main squad. Still not a fashionable squad in my opinion but just the lure of Premiership and being in London - only saving factor to the lowest team is Crystal Palace. Fulham far more credible and stable.
