pete 2,499 Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Gers favourites to land midfielder Mon, Jan 29 2007 18:26 Norwich boss Peter Grant wants to sign former Celtic midfielder Mark Fotheringham but admits Rangers are favourites to land him. The midfielder has been offered a two-year deal by the Canaries but Fotheringham is said to favour a move to Rangers and Grant admits he is likely to lose out to the Gers. The player is currently training with Rangers and a return to Glasgow looks to be on the cards. "He is a terrific player, a great skilful player with wonderful ability, there is no doubt about that," Grant said. "He went to Germany and did very well there and then went to Switzerland for a while and played exceptionally well and wants to come back to Britain. "Unfortunately, Rangers are in there first, but I have obviously spoken to the boy, he is very, very keen to come to Norwich. But Rangers are a massive club and if he gets the chance to go there maybe that's the chance he will take. But he knows I am interested so we will see how things go on from here." The Norwich boss seems certain he is coming to us. I must admit i have never seen him play, but his CV dosn't really make me break out in a sweat. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete 2,499 Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 Maybe he changed his mind now all our midfielders have walked out and Murray has put the money into the pay the debt kitty. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gribz 743 Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 A bit like Gow, this one doesnt take to my fancy at all. Im thinking about the UEFA cup and if we come up against 1 of the few big boys. I know Walter put a good spirit into the Scotland team with average players. But the average players in the national team are still a good crop who play at a decent level. And the reason they are average for being a national team is because they are being judged against the likes of Italy, France, Brazils top players. But going for Fotheringham, whom i cant say ive heard of much, doesnt appeal to me. Didnt he start with Dundee then fail at Celtic?? As for him being in Germany - who was that with?? Whereas the likes of McCulloch are much more appealing as he has came on well in the EPL and scores a few goals. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ascender 352 Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 This is a strange one, I thought him and Miller were just here to use our facilities and then Walter said last week we weren't signing either of them. I see Miller has had a rant about not being signed by us. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
