Jason Roberts. Followed him ever since he gave us a torrid time at the Hawthorns nearly a decade ago. True, he's in the Premiership, but so often on the bench . Keeps himself fit, might be tempted. Cheaper than Kevin Phillips who would have been perfect.
I said we should have got him from Gillingham a few years back when he was disenchanted there and we were still in the Championship. He is a 10 goal a season midfielder who tackles and at 27 is at or approaching his peak.
It's questionable whether he is up to the standard of the Prem if Norwich do go up although he undoubtedly deserves a shot at it.
He is a Kent boy so might want to come back to the area if surplus to requirements at Norwich.
Corr i wish!
Same as you Len, me and my dad mentioned him to Pardew (when we was in the Champ) at least 3 times! Dickson wanted him to join as well after his spelll at Jils. But yeah this is the sort of midfielder we definately need!
A few names to throw into the mix, ( a few previously mentioned). Some might be surplus to requirements at their current clubs, may be out of contract, or within our price range. I'm expecting about 5/6 to come in.
GK - Mikkel Andersen (Reading) David Lucas (Swindon)
Def - Lee Naylor (Cardiff) Marcus Williams (Reading) Michael Nelson (Norwich) Gary Borrowdale (QPR)
Mid - David Noble (Exeter) Danny Green (Dagenham) Anthony Wordsworth (Colchester) Alan Gow (Notts Co) Craig Conway (Dundee Utd), but might be pricey. Sam Baldock (Mk Dons) Dean Parrett (Spurs) season loan? JP McGovern (Swindon)
Strikers - Chris Martin (Norwich) Ross McCormack (Leeds) Will Hoskins (Bristol Rovers)
Boyd will be a million plus, that's why Forest didn't take him. Le Fondre is a gamble for the money they want.
Le fondre is a good shout , but can he do it at this level? if he can his value will soar at the end of next season , might be worth a punt 500K & 500k if we get promotion.
Wouldn't mind Luke Chadwick from MK Dons if they don't go up, think hes the sort of midfielder we are lacking, keeps the ball moving and gets in some good areas, getting on abit but would be quality.
GK - David Martin (25, MK Dons) Jason Brown (28, Blackburn)
DF - Left Back - Sam Wood (24, Brentford) Left Back - Matthew Briggs (20, Fulham) Loan Centre Back - Terrell Forbes (29, Leyton Orient) Centre Back - Danny Shittu (30, QPR) Centre Back - Leon Legge (25, Brentford) Right Back - Lawrie Wilson (23, Stevenage)
MF - Centre Mid - Anthony Wordsworth (22, Colchester) Centre Mid - Lee Minshull (25, AFC Wimbledon) Centre Mid - Michael Bostwick (22, Stevenage) Left Mid/Wing - Sanchez Watt (20, Arsenal) Loan Right Mid/Wing - Danny Green (22, Dag&Red)
FW - Danny Haynes - (23, Barnsley) Paul Hayes (27, PNE) Harry Kane (17, Spurs) Loan
[cite]Posted By: Clem_Snide[/cite]Some decent shouts in this thread.....however, some utterly ludicrous one's as well. George Boyd! Jason Roberts! No chance.
[cite]Posted By: DiscoCAFC[/cite]Anyone that just said Frazer Richardson, Ross Macormack and Iwelumo are living in a deam world
Richardson could be likely. A mate who is a saints fan, is convinced that they may sell/let him out on loan in the summer. Butterfeet has been their number 1 right back all season.
Not sure why people think we can get Boyd, when Forest & I think Blackpool had £1.5M bids turned down.
Rhodes at Hudds would probably also cost the same.
NB promoted players at Brighton are hardly likely to drop a division to come to us, unless Brighton bomb them out.

He was good in his day, but hasn't played recently.
