Just seen this rumour on newsnow website, very tricky one. I think it would be worth it as it would free us up for another loan signing, but difficult... 'Arry drives a hard bargain!
I think this would be a very bad move for us,as the article says 5 goals in 13 games for a midfielder is a great return. They can keep Naughton as far as I'm concerned,unless there was big cash coming our way, but I can,t see tax dodger giving us much money.
oh Naughton and some cash for pilkington I see, nah thats a rubbish move. Naughton would be a fine addition but we have alternative options. Maybe the situation will change come the summer
Can't see it being accurate. As much as I rate Pilkington (very highly), I would've thought Harry is shopping for a higher calibre of player. The other thing is (unless Pilks wants to leave), if Naughton wanted to come here, all he need do is sit tight till the end of the season (if the rumour about his contract running down is right), and we could have him for less than a full transfer fee and keep Pilks.
not a good deal. Pilkington brings something vital to the team, and as lambert says, there aren't that many undiscovered talents in the lower leagues waiting to be unearthed.
As I see it we have Kyle for the rest of the season anyway, we lose pilks we wont have him and it would be tough to replace him! Bad move and sends out the wrong message if he went. Maybe this is why lambert has said its a no goer for Kyle on a permanent...
I know - its just there have been rumours about Pilkington for a while now, and then today he is nowhere to be seen. I'm sure he will still be here in February, I'm just a little nervous. EDIT - Just seen EDP interview with Lambert; in it he confirmed Ruddy missed the game because his partner has given birth.
Apparently Radio Norfolk said that Pilkington and Tierney were both at the game today...in their suits. It would have been more concerning if they wern't there at all.
We won`t sell anyone that Lambert wants and we won`t be held to ransom for anyone either. Lambert doesn`t **** about, take the CMS saga...
Didn't know that about Ruddy, cheers Carra. Think I'd be more concerned about Pilks if there was a feeling he was unsettled, as far as I know there's nothing. Hope it stays that way! Spot on.
Problem is it's not always up to the manager... If a player wants to move there's not much to be done about it. I'd rather have Pilks gone than have a mopey 50% Pilks hanging around the team... But as most have said, I hope it's all just a rumour.
This is where you find out if a player has his head screwed on properly. All he has to do is look at that left wing and see the name Gareth Bale and realise he ain't going to get a sniff of 1st team football...
