I can't understand the people moaning about the Cureton signing

Yes he may be 31 but:

Top scorer in the Championship last season and wants to play for NCFC (unlike some of these other upstarts).

He's a quarter of the price of Sharp and is more proven at this level. The money we save on Sharp can be used to get Marshall and others in.

We still have Earnie but if he goes then we either will have moeny to try and get someone like Eastwood in or we have a replacement for earnie already and can spend the money on other areas of the team. Hucks will play up front next season. That onlt leaves one spot free and for that even if Earnie leaves we will have Cureton, Martin, Brown and Dublin.

As far as I can see its all good and I can't believe how much moaning there is about it!

I can't understand the people moaning about the Cureton signing (NCFC) - Jim, Jun 29, 14:30:31
- Hmmm. (NCFC) - Garry Brooke, Jun 29, 14:34:15
- "we still have Earnie" (NCFC) - mr carra, Jun 29, 14:33:31
  - Martin and sadly Brown are the other option to Cureton and Earnie (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jun 29, 14:36:14
    - best way of improving the defence (NCFC) - mr carra, Jun 29, 14:40:20
      - Perhaps we can get Iwan to dust his boots off, since it's seems to be Old Boy's day. (n/m) (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Jun 29, 14:42:20
        
        yup - or somone Cureton played with (oo-er) (NCFC) - mr carra, Jun 29, 14:45:15
    - Not sure quite what Brown has done to be labelled a waste of space... (NCFC) - Dog, Jun 29, 14:38:32
      - controlled the ball from a Chelsea corner back towards our goal and Drogba tapped it in (NCFC) - phrankin, Jun 29, 14:46:12
        
        Still being harsh there. (NCFC) - Dog, Jun 29, 14:48:18
        
        Iwan used to, brilliant at defending corners, as is Drogba (NCFC) - Old Git, Jun 29, 14:50:24
        
        Fairly sure you were semi-arguing on Brown's behalf a minute ago. (NCFC) - Dog, Jun 29, 14:53:01
        
        No, that was Cureton. (NCFC) - Dog, Jun 29, 14:54:56
      - The flip side of that argument (NCFC) - mr carra, Jun 29, 14:42:02
        
        Still think it's a bit harsh to rule him out totally at this stage. (NCFC) - Dog, Jun 29, 14:44:16
        
        I haven't ruled him out totally (NCFC) - mr carra, Jun 29, 14:48:48
        
        how many of them work out apart from the obvious class ones like (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jun 29, 14:54:09
        
        So you want Worthy back then? (NCFC) - Dog, Jun 29, 14:51:45
        
        Peter Crouch? (NCFC) - mr carra, Jun 29, 14:54:31
        
        Fair point. (NCFC) - Dog, Jun 29, 14:56:09
        
        Probably true (NCFC) - mr carra, Jun 29, 14:58:56
        
        May aswell stick with Brown then? (NCFC) - Dog, Jun 29, 14:59:55
        
        well, I was just trying to improve the odds! (NCFC) - mr carra, Jun 29, 15:03:05
        
        Wouldn't disagree with that. (NCFC) - Dog, Jun 29, 15:05:40
      - I think he is a fake (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jun 29, 14:39:25
        
        Right. (n/m) (NCFC) - Dog, Jun 29, 14:43:36
- As long as we keep Earnie, striker shouldn't have been the priority anyway (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jun 29, 14:32:51
  - we are in serious need of a CB we are cronicly short there anway (NCFC) - raretek, Jun 29, 14:46:46
    - all of them are fairly useless (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jun 29, 14:51:12
      - Shakell is hot and cold. (n/m) (NCFC) - raretek, Jun 29, 14:58:52
        
        oops (NCFC) - raretek, Jun 29, 15:00:08
      - Yeah, seemed to go backwards last season.. (NCFC) - Garry Brooke, Jun 29, 14:54:34
      - dunno why I typed that! (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jun 29, 14:53:08
