Dont shoot the messenger, I do not know how reliable this is or even if it is wind up. If someone who has Twitter could validate it, it would be appreciated...

 

One of my mates on the book of Face has just posted that he has seen a Tweet from the Son of the West Ham owers that claims they are signing the championship top scorer tomorrow!?

 

I am right in thinking that is Lambert isnt it? I am hoping there is another Championship and this Tweet if true is referring to a Championship in another country or is just a made up Tweet.

 

Like I said, I have no clue if this is true and would appreciate if someone can check it out if they have Twitter, maybe 'Tweet' the person back to do some digging? I am sure we wouldnt having just signed a top striker let Lambert go and I am sure it is a wind up or mix up but still thought I would share...

If they couldn't afford Jelavic (6m+) then they cannot afford Lambert.

 

And I'm pretty sure NC would refuse any offers from any team in this league. We'd be handing the title to WHU otherwise, and I know NC wants us to win the league. We don't need the money so I think you can safely dismiss that as total tosh.

Right so just to be clear....

 

Your mate, saw a tweet from someone who might be the son of the West Ham owner (who by the way only has daughters) saying that Lambert was going to them.

 

Horse, cow..... Nah it's bull

Sounds ridiculous at first glance, but there is this little voice at the back of my head wondering what NC and NA did to attract Sharp when he turned down Leicester, and more to the point, WHY they suddenly did it.........

That.

 

Premier League team? Slim chance.

 

WHU? I've got a better chance of becoming pope.

Ps. He has sons... But that's only to show how easy it is to make crap up

It won't be Lambert. By "top Championship scorer" he means someone in the top scorers list, probably Vaz Te or perhaps McCormack.

 

The kid is young and worded it poorly. No need for this thread, so a mod should close or delete it.

lol - it won't happen. To even entertain the thought is ludicrous.

 

Don't know if you've got Saints player, but Billy Sharp was asked about how forward he was looking to forging a partnership with Lambert. Doubt they'd have asked that if they knew he was off ;)

"Suddenly"?

Well they suddenly did it because we need a proven scroer at this level to play alongside Rickie. Lee will not aclimatise straight away. I firmly believe that Lee is a signing more for next season than this. Just think about how long De Ridder was given to bed into the squad and the style of play in England. And he played in Europe, not the J league.

 

Put that little voice to bed, its evil and will hurt you ;-)

Well, he was almost a Leicester player last week, so this has happened fairly quickly.

 

I think the quickness in this is more down to the failure to sign Hooper than anything else.

 

We've worked all window on that one, but they wouldn't sell.

Not so sure about that. It's clear we've wanted him since the summer. I'd say the most likely thing that's changed is we were out-priced for Hooper.

They've been linked with Maynard again I believe.

Can you answer WHAT and WHY, then ??
"What" - the chance to hugely increase his pay packet and play for a big club, as well as coaching staff he knows and trusts - why, so we've got extra options in our strike force in the form of a proven championship goalscorer.

 

Thimples.

You are probably right, and it seems Billy has just explained his position on Talksport (wanted us to come back in for him).

 

My theory is that we decided to break the wage structure for Hooper, and when we had to give up on that, we transferred that willingness into upping the summer offer for Billy.

image_normal.jpg jsullivanwhu Hopefully 3 key signings tomorrow-Peimer League attacking midfielder, [a] top scorer from Championship, Brazilian striker/

Played under Allardyce at Bolton didn't he?

 

I think so, but very rarely played. He's in a purple patch at the mo, but I don't think he's any better than they've got at the mo. They've just added another average striker to the mix.

This is how I read it. Move along nothing to see here, not quite worded correctly should read one of the top scorers in the championship. There is NO way Lambert is off to West Ham. IMHO
