    Shame but we're always likely to miss out to Championship teams if it's a direct competition

    so, is that both of the Randell twins gone ?
    Joel Randell is still there although the link was only one of mistaken identity then a "want" wasn't it?

    I have absolutely nothing to back this up with but just have a strange feeling theres going to be a bit of activity on here today.

    Totally agree about the activity on here today but sadly none will be about rumours or signings
  • Sign Famewo on a 3 year deal and I'd really start to get excited !!!
    Just spoke to my Norwich pal, just to get a feeler on what he thought the chances were of us getting him back, he's not really sure what's going on. He said there was talk early in the window they'd sell him, they had him and another young promising CB who stayed as a fourth option last season, who ended up playing loads and did well as they had a bunch of injuries to their 'main' CBs, so that's pushed Famewo further down the pecking order. I don't think he's good enough for Prem for sure and doubt they'll keep him as a 4th or 5th option, so you'd think they'd be looking to either sell or loan him out again.

    Sounds like they've had a nightmare summer so far though. Chief exec's gone, head of recruitment is gone, lost Buendia to AV, and there was the whole sponsorship debacle  :D  hopefully we'll be able to capitalise on that with Famewo though...
    Just about what I've been told.
    Also out of interest (not sure if its true) but one of Norwich cities star young performers, who comes from the same town where I live and goes with a girl from my road. Refused to go to a prem. side after the club had agreed to sell him at the start of last season, saying he was a Norfolk boy and wanted to stay.

    Hope you are well, John
    Thanks Johnny. Jim and I are progressing.

    Joel Randall was a January rumour, can't see it being one we go back to.

    Who was that? Sure my pal would be interested in that lil story
    Well I shouldn't name names in case, but your mate would know of a young star for Norwich who was dropped for the first couple of games at the start of last season and it was thought that he was sulking because he couldn't get the move he wanted when the reverse is apparently  true.
    Believe it if you will.

    No we bid in January - they wanted a lot of money though so it was dead before it even started.

    Joel Randall was a January rumour, can't see it being one we go back to. 
    Wasn't it Williams that was the actual rumour and then it got twisted to Joel, then it spark a load of comments about that exactly the sort of player we should be signing?

    Edit:  Apologies looks like I missremembered https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/56026402

    So it was Joel we were after and Williams was the mistake?

    My head hurts. 
  • Disappointed with not getting Randell Williams. Out of the players we've been linked with I was excited about and thought we had a good chance of getting. Money and the lure of the Championship won day it seems. Shame

    Wigan have signed Max Power today to follow up the signing of Cousins yesterday… they could be a real problem next season 

    … and it’s means that ‘spotty kid on Twitter’ that everyone was knocking is at least 25% right so far 👍🏼
    I don’t rate him at all and neither did the Sunderland fans the last two seasons . 
    Cousins and Power …..blimey can you imagine reaction if we brought them !!!!!

    Would not worry to much about Wigan if this is the level of player there getting 
    BOUGHT !!!!!!!!!!
    Seriously why do you need to do that! Makes you look a right plank!
    if i was worried about what you thought i looked like, you'd be right

    God their website is worse than Nimer's 
  • Randell Williams is ok but Joel Randall is the real prospect.  Still a possibility then!  Honestly - he looks mustard

    No, a friend of mine got in a big argument on twitter about it a couple of months ago.  He is an author and a big fan.
