A free transfer ON VERY HIGH WAGES, pants

That's what he says in his interview: he moved co Cardiff couldn't afford his wages. But clever old Norwich could, so he moved. And hasn't given a lot in return.

        :) (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 15:30:55
      - some thoughts on Thorne based on him as a young player... (NCFC) - blindasabat, Mar 15, 14:58:30
        
        so we signed an injury prone player (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 15:07:58
        
        or we signed someone who has taken advantage of every little knock (NCFC) - blindasabat, Mar 15, 15:31:02
        
        and you of course know that for fact (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 15:35:21
        
        but this is it pants, you don't know that he gives a shit either! (NCFC) - blindasabat, Mar 15, 15:39:58
        
        exactly! (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 15:43:57
        
        sticking to Thorne and his constantly injured status (NCFC) - blindasabat, Mar 15, 16:05:52
        
        again, you are suggesting he wasn't injured! (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 16:13:09
        
        no, this is what i'm suggesting (NCFC) - blindasabat, Mar 15, 16:38:21
        
        the examples away from thorne are to (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 16:40:59
        
        ok, you tried to compare Henry to Thorne in your post above... (NCFC) - blindasabat, Mar 15, 16:54:53
        
        I used Henry because Wenger (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 17:07:15
        
        Dion is 37 and still doing it (n/m) (NCFC) - Brom, Mar 15, 17:39:03
        
        Dion only trains 2 days a week and still gets injured (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 17:41:58
        
        also Thorne would actually have to play some games in order to be knackered from playing (NCFC) - blindasabat, Mar 15, 17:16:30
        
        believe what you want (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 17:21:11
        
        in relation to that post that doesn't make sense... (n/m) (NCFC) - blindasabat, Mar 15, 17:25:02
        
        but age has nothing to do with it in Thorne's case (NCFC) - blindasabat, Mar 15, 17:15:20
        
        if you doubt thorne, you doubt the club, and you doubt the medical team (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 17:23:30
        
        and what purpose would it serve the club to out Thorne as a lazy wanker? (n/m) (NCFC) - blindasabat, Mar 15, 17:27:10
        
        there lies your conspiracy (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 17:31:08
        
        what? that doesn't make one bit of sense... (NCFC) - blindasabat, Mar 15, 17:34:03
        
        grants had good comments to make about thorne though (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 17:35:08
        
        i'll ask again... (NCFC) - blindasabat, Mar 15, 17:40:37
        
        it wouldn't, but surely if the bloke was a problem he would have gone to oldham no matter (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 17:44:43
        
        ok remind me of the details of his proposed move to Oldham? (NCFC) - blindasabat, Mar 15, 17:49:11
        
        oldham wanted him on loan in january (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 17:54:23
        
        now this kind of depends on the timing of Oldham's request... (NCFC) - blindasabat, Mar 15, 18:04:20
        
        that still doesn't really tally why if thorne was lazy and useless (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 18:12:51
        
        except that it does, because the club gains more from them going on loan (NCFC) - blindasabat, Mar 15, 18:26:07
        
        club would be foolish to offer him a new deal (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 18:54:50
        
        Thats because these players have usually "done something" for their club (NCFC) - DiscoDaleGordon, Mar 15, 16:49:30
        
        Fair enough (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 16:56:45
        
        comparing Thorne to either Ward or Crichton is a complete red herring (NCFC) - blindasabat, Mar 15, 17:07:59
  - Ridiculous to call him a "forgotten man" (NCFC) - Old Git, Mar 15, 14:35:32
    - I know, and using the word nightmare, when he's just loving ripping us dry (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 14:36:24
      - To be fair to him, HE didn't call it a nightmare, it was the Pink Un (NCFC) - Old Git, Mar 15, 14:39:44
        
        yeah, what a cunt, it's all his fault (n/m) (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 14:45:48
        
        I agree with pants in a way (NCFC) - DiscoDaleGordon, Mar 15, 16:17:53
        
        bang on the money (NCFC) - Brandonio, Mar 15, 14:49:02
        
        and that louis jean :) (NCFC) - pants, Mar 15, 14:50:59
        
        Yup (n/m) (NCFC) - Old Git, Mar 15, 14:48:00
  - Does it not get lonely up there on the moral highground all the time? (n/m) (NCFC) - Tomblander, Mar 15, 14:35:24
    - he's got his horse with him to keep him company (NCFC) - Dave in France, Mar 15, 14:39:26
      - Do you two share a chip for your shoulders, or do you have one each? (n/m) (NCFC) - Old Git, Mar 15, 14:40:27
        
        I've got one on both shoulders (NCFC) - Tomblander, Mar 15, 14:42:59
