While we were down
The scum have signed former Town player Jordan Rhodes who confessed he is still a Town fan. Well if you were you would not sign for the interbreeds.

Re: While we were down
I understand your comments Derick.and as a fellow town fan agree.....Jordens managerment team convinced him he was Premiership and tried very hard to get him into a prem club,theywere not convinced, The enemy up the road have offered him a good deal and another chance to prove himself. Im not too sure he has made the right footballing decision and may find it hard to adapt to their style of football. Will be interesting on Derby days if he plays to see how much effort he applies

Re: While we were down
I’m not too fussed about this. Tom Adeyemi is a Norwich fan.... what’s the difference?
I feel that Rhodes peaked a few years ago and if he’s on 40k a week and Norwich have to pick up a fair wedge of that, then he could be an expensive flop. That seems to go against Norwich’s philosophy of cost-cutting. I wonder if Farke is getting a bit twitchy and under-pressure to deliver and this could be a “panic-buy”.

Or he could be the next John “Fat b*stard” Robertson. Hibs fan but all time top scorer against Hibs, for the feckin Jambos.

Re: While we were down
I'm glad they've signed him, he's been sh*te for a long time now as those that saw him against us will testify, his best days are long gone and the style the scum play won't compliment his limitations, yes he may score a few but an expensive flop in my opinion.

I should be happy about this, because he's awful now. However you just know that he's going to score against us and he will love it just as much as that other tw*tty celebration he did against us. Can't stand the guy.

Re: While we were down
A one trick pony who is a big lump. Money on him to score against us in the derby matches though.
Panic purchase by scum? You bet!

Re: While we were down
I wouldn’t want him back here but guaranteed to get 12+. Is that worth his high wage demands and going missing in/for games? I’m not sure.
