I see what you're saying

(I think the coast is clear)

and I agree, I've just seen this before with us, and feel natural skepticism

Not just because we've got a player we've wanted for 4 years.

But because when it comes to getting a target in, in future, which we need to bid money for, which in most cases is a striker.

This is the ball park we're in. Our board aren't going to stump up around 700k for Iversen Helguson etc. Lambert like Roeder is going to have to dangle Wes into it and hope the other club wants him

If not, another club will wait for us to struggle because we don't accommodate a manager properly to his targets, and then purchase the player they wanted when another manager comes in and needs some funds for loans or his own ideas

You're hearing the board and past regimes with this signing already in my opinion

In order to satisfy Ward's decent west ham wage, to coventry wages, to us. Lambert has got rid of Doherty. It's a good move, but you can see that in order for Lambert to move and deal here....he has to sacrifice someone else, instead of an addition

This has gone on since Grant was made manager, as Worthington was allowed the lavish spending

Roeder had to sell Brown and Joe Lewis, in order to get Matty P and his loans. A season on, he had to sell Shackell to do the same. When it came to tracking his main target for the season Iversen, we started stalling around on fees, and the fact Rosenberg were in Europe.

We couldn't bid them until they cracked and sold. Just like we couldn't bid and get Matty Taylor

A lot of the negative gene at Norwich isn't to do with the management team, it's further up than that

Yes, I quite like the Ward signing, but I can see how it came about us getting him. It's the same failed reasoning behind how Cureton came back here, because he was put back here and was supposed to do what Earnshaw did, just like Brellier was suppose to do what Etuhu did

Just like selling Bell and getting 5-6 loans in was supposed to keep us up

Maybe I'm reading way too much into it. But it is a player we've never managed to sign when the money requested has been stated
