Matty's Caddy Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 Don't know how true this is but comes from a very decent source, he is being offered 70k a week by norwich and saints have only offered him 40k.
Matty's Caddy Posted 4 June, 2012 Author Posted 4 June, 2012 Sorry, can somebody put a question mark on the title for me please
St.JonB Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 Why would Norwich be offering a contract to a player that is already under contract with a club? Also don't you think they would be offering Holt that sort of money if they could. File under bulls**t.
Katalinic Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 Lol - such a short sentence and so many inaccuracies..where to start?
James Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 Got to be the most ridiculous thing I've heard in a while. 1) Why would he go to Norwich? 2) How on earth would Norwich have enough cash to offer him 70k a week? 3) If they were going to offer a player 70k a week then they'd go for someone that was more proven than Lambert. If this comes from one of your decent sources, I'd love to know what the unreliable ones come out with. Messi to Saints anyone?
CHAPEL END CHARLIE Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 SRL signed a contract extension only last July that means he is under contract here until the summer of 2014. I can only presume that both club and player reached a amicable agreement on his wages at that time.
S-Clarke Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 That is an hilarious rumour, very good effort. This time of the season drags, but it can bring out some gems like this. Norwich will never offer a player 70k. Fact. and if they could, it would be criminal to offer that to a player like Lambert. (no disrespect to him, but if they have that dosh they can surely attract much more proven players)
St Lej Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 To be fair, this one rivals the "Daniel Strurridge on loan" rumour that was posted on here about this time last year. What a gem that was
Saint J 77 Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 Never going to happen. Norwich don't even have a manager at the moment do they?
Nexstar Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 No manager and yet offering 70k a week to players. Hilarious.
ericofarabia Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 I thought he'd only just left them - good way to get a pay rise!!
Matty's Caddy Posted 4 June, 2012 Author Posted 4 June, 2012 Ok well I knew that was coming but you would be very surprised where this came from. As for offering people contracts, I think we all know that football doesn't work like that Players and managers are always being sounded out to see how receptive they are about a possible

As for offering people contracts, I think we all know that football doesn't work like that Players and managers are always being sounded out to see how receptive they are about a possible I think whoever has told you is pulling your leg, massively. It's so untrue that I'm surprised you even posted it!
Saint-Armstrong Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 I'm sorry. Rickie to Norwich? For £70k? Talk about a sideways move. Where is £70k coming from also!? Holt wants to leave as he's on NPC money of about £15k p/w! Someone just close this ridiculously hilarious load of tripe.
Thorpe-le-Saint Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 I think this could potentially be the worst rumour that has ever been touted on this forum.
Saint_Donovan Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 So they can't afford to give Grant holt a payrise who has scored goals for them in the prem, but they can afford to give Rickie 70k p/w who has scored 0 prem goals?!!!
Fan The Flames Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 Maybe if the figures were 17 and 14 it might be a maybe.

Miltonaggro Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 I am devastated by this exclusive news and it has ruined my jubilee bank holiday. To be honest, it was only a matter of time before our stars were picked off by the giants, nothing ever changes. Cortese out!...
Window Cleaner Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 There's a piece on Holt on the BBC Sport site.Apparently Norwich told him he's too old for an extra year on his contract and that's about the root of the problem.He has 2 years left but he wants 3 now,no doubt with some more money as well.If Holt's too old I cant see them offering Lambert more money for a 2 year contract either..
sotonjoe Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 Ah ... so this is why I have taken the opinion that TSW is full of ****e. Back to Twitter then...
Saint Lindford Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 This has to be one of the funniest things since the Skates announced the Harbourdome or tried to 'pack the park'..... 1. RL is under contract until 2014 2. Norwich could not afford the transfer fee 3. Norwich could not offer anyone £70k a week 4. Why would RL want to go to a club without a manager 5. Norwich would not offer Holt a 3 year deal because he is 'too old', RL is one year younger than Holt
Faz Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 I've heard that Norwich already have loads of Lambert Merchandise. Could be mileage in this.
Saint Scott Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 The main reason Grant Holt wants out according to most of the media is that Norwich are unwilling to up his wages. Apparently he wanted them tripled so I cant see them offering Lambert 70K a week especially when they couldn't afford the transfer fee NC and NA would want. Utter tosh.
James Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 If the source is so 'decent' why not say who told you rather than post utter tripe and expect anyone to believe it?
Hedgehog Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 I've heard that Norwich already have loads of Lambert Merchandise. Could be mileage in this. Managerial Lambert stuff to get rid?
Dalek2003 Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 Managerial Lambert stuff to get rid? You could easily turn the P into an R and then tippex out the aul. This would mean that lambert merchandise could be sold !
Cabrone Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 So they are offering Ricky 4-5 times more than Holt? If you are going to make stuff up then at least try to be a bit realistic.
madruss Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 If the source is so 'decent' why not say who told you rather than post utter tripe and expect anyone to believe it? Even if the source is Rickie himself, it's still clearly a wind-up!
dune Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 I don't want to upset you all but i've heard this too. Perhaps Matty's source is the same as mine, but if it isn't then there might be something in it. I'll get back to you all when i've spoken to xxxxxx xxxxxxx.
dune Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 FFS What mug would believe that Do you believe it Dulldroms?
Panda Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 Got to be the most ridiculous thing I've heard in a while. 1) Why would he go to Norwich? 2) How on earth would Norwich have enough cash to offer him 70k a week? 3) If they were going to offer a player 70k a week then they'd go for someone that was more proven than Lambert. If this comes from one of your decent sources, I'd love to know what the unreliable ones come out with. Messi to Saints anyone? and: 4) Lambert is not out of contract so we would want a fee that Norwich could not afford 5) Norwich have no manager so are unlikely to make big signings before that is resolved 6) It just does not make any sense at all from anyone's perspective. That is surely not a decent source as you say!
Delboy Dave Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 If Lamberts on 40k at Saints i'd be suprised, nevermind 70 at Norwich
mcjwills Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 Managerial Lambert stuff to get rid? No sh*t Sherlock
James Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 I don't want to upset you all but i've heard this too. Perhaps Matty's source is the same as mine, but if it isn't then there might be something in it. I'll get back to you all when i've spoken to xxxxxx xxxxxxx. Dune in wind up shocker...
Roger Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 I wouldn't be surprised if it came from Matty. Jason dodd?
S-Clarke Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 I heard this last week Why are you replying to your own question?
Thedelldays Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 Why are you replying to your own question? Because he forgot to switch user names
Roger Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 Because he forgot to switch user names Im not im just saying thats who I heard the info had come from
Thedelldays Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 For £70k a week I would support and play for Pompey FFS
S-Clarke Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 Im not im just saying thats who I heard the info had come from Why are you even giving this any credence? It's never, ever, ever going to happen because Norwich aren't rich.
Roger Posted 4 June, 2012 Posted 4 June, 2012 Why are you even giving this any credence? It's never, ever, ever going to happen because Norwich aren't rich. Im not im saying its a load of rubbish and that loads of people have said that in the last week, its obviously made up and a load of rubbish.
