"City won't be blackmailed into paying over the odds"

Yes they will. That's what happens if you're f**kwitted enough to sell a big asset before you go into the market.

Norwich City say they will not be bullied into paying over-the-top transfer fees as they seek a replacement for Dean Ashton.

The Canaries have a few million in the bank following Ashton's ?7.25m sale to West Ham on Monday - but chief executive Neil Doncaster has insisted it won't be burning a hole in any pockets.

However, City will need to ponder three options.

Should they:

Accept the likelihood that they will have to pay over the odds? BECAUSE THEY WERE TOO FUCKWITTED TO DEAL IN ADVANCE

Refuse to be held over a barrel but miss out on potential targets? THE BARREL WHICH EXISTS ONLY BECAUSE THEY WERE TOO FUCKWITTED ETC ETC

Wait until the end of the summer before buying? THE "END" OF THE SUMMER - AFTER ALL THE GOOD PLAYERS HAVE BEEN BOUGHT AND YOU'RE RUMMAGING AROUND IN THE BUCKET MARKED "DESPERATE PANIC BUY"
