Yes but these outfield players were written off by other clubs and proved successful here.

So saying that Krul is past his best because he can’t find another team could prove to be wrong and he might be a great signing for us.

Is Krul out of contract?... (NCFC) - loz, Jul 23, 12:07:32
- Yeah he has left Brighton (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jul 23, 12:08:44
  - Surprised no Dutch clubs are in for him to be honest! (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jul 23, 12:08:58
    - What does that tell you? (NCFC) - hoolahan, Jul 23, 12:12:32
      - That we have more money than most Dutch clubs? (n/m) (NCFC) - mr carra, Jul 23, 12:18:49
      - His last competitive game was last year for AZ Alkmaar. What it tells me is simply (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jul 23, 12:18:23
        
        Cech is still awful though (n/m) (NCFC) - wolfio, Jul 23, 13:14:04
        
        He's been awful since he joined Arsenal. Bizarre choice of an example really. (n/m) (NCFC) - mr carra, Jul 23, 13:15:53
        
        I think "awful" is a bit strong, don't you? Not the best keeper in the world anymore but (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jul 23, 13:42:23
        
        "awful" ? (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jul 23, 13:15:21
        
        100% this (n/m) (NCFC) - WalksietheReturn, Jul 23, 12:28:56
      - We also signed Holt and Hucks, who were both otherwise washed up or out of favour. (NCFC) - tim berry, Jul 23, 12:16:56
        
        Not sure I agree - both Holts and Hicks were fairly regular starters (NCFC) - Saucerer, Jul 23, 12:21:35
        
        Huckerby wasn't (NCFC) - mr carra, Jul 23, 12:50:28
        
        Comparing keepers to outfield players isn't really fair though (NCFC) - mr carra, Jul 23, 12:46:30
        
        Yes but these outfield players were written off by other clubs and proved successful here. (NCFC) - tim berry, Jul 23, 15:18:44
        
        also, re 'cant find another team' (NCFC) - CWC, Jul 23, 15:51:45
        
        Crouch (loan) is maybe a better example of washed up player making good. (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jul 23, 12:23:18
        
        Nope. He was early 20's when he joined us (n/m) (NCFC) - Saucerer, Jul 23, 12:26:03
        
        What difference does that make? He was on his way to lower league obscurity. But what are (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jul 23, 12:27:23
        
        Obviously. Don't agree with you about Crouch but hey ho... (NCFC) - Saucerer, Jul 23, 12:38:30
        
        I’m not writing him off (NCFC) - hoolahan, Jul 23, 12:34:30
        
        I think we have to trust the manager here (NCFC) - earlydoors, Jul 23, 12:56:03
        
        He’s not necessarily a replacement, he’s another option. (NCFC) - tim berry, Jul 23, 12:37:23
        
        Understand that... point taken (n/m) (NCFC) - hoolahan, Jul 23, 12:50:37
        
        If and only If that is the intended scenario (NCFC) - Saucerer, Jul 23, 13:00:30
        
        I rather suspect we're trying to offload McGovern (NCFC) - mr carra, Jul 23, 13:06:03
        
        Expect we are, but whether he will go is entirely different (n/m) (NCFC) - Saucerer, Jul 23, 13:28:11
        
        As long as he's still getting his money I'm sure he'd be fine... (NCFC) - mr carra, Jul 23, 14:56:05
        
        Isn’t that one of the nine roff commandments? (NCFC) - King, Jul 23, 12:32:10
        
        Jim hasn't been on yet to tell us why signing Krul concerns him (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jul 23, 12:34:02
        
        I don't even need to know why (NCFC) - mr carra, Jul 23, 12:53:29
