Gayle and West Brom accept charges.

https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/47245351

"He will miss Championship games against Aston Villa and Queens Park Rangers.
Gayle will be available to return from his suspension against Sheffield United on Saturday, 23 February."

It worked out the way I hoped it would. But I'm surprised they didn't fight it as I don't think there is an extra penalty for contesting the charge in this case (could be wrong about that.)

Regardless of what the keeper should have done, I thought this was a dead cert for a foul by Boly. But the ref didn't call it and the commentator said it was never a foul. Was it the right call?

Hope we ain't paying his obscene wages if this comes to fruition <yikes>
Hope it does, the greater the distance between the waste of space and Norwich, the better <ok>

Hearts boss Craig Levein believes Steven Naismith could be jeopardising an opportunity to represent Scotland at a major tournament if he chooses to continue his career in the United States.
The 32-year-old is understood to be amenable to the idea of moving to America, with the improving level of football allied to the standard of living for his young family being a significant selling point.
 
No worries, Brendan - let's just call it £2m for cash, hey? <doh>

One man Brendan Rodgers could look to sign is Norwich City maestro – Emiliano Buendia. Valued at just £2.25m by Transfermarkt, the Argentine forward signed for the Canaries back in July and has proven to an instant hit with his new employers. Buendia has been one of the club’s most impressive performers during their rise to the top of the Championship table.

I guess we need a 'Summer Transfer Thread'.
I'm optimistic that SW will put massive valuations on all our recent acquisitions to scare off potential buyers.
Also that the players themselves will be eager to stay and at least be playing/in the match day squad regularly.

But surely it all depends which division we're in next season?
Some will undoubtedly believe all of this season's hype(?) / accolades and think they're worth a shot in the top flight - with Norwich or without them?
Do your damndest (damnedest?) Stuart. :emoticon-0129-call:

Leeds United have confirmed that Kemar Roofe suffered knee ligament damage against Swansea last week. No timescale on his return but the club are hopeful he'll be back before the end of the season. [HASHTAG]#lufc[/HASHTAG]

Fair point Cromer and I'm quietly confident that the majority will want to stay regardless.
I think the only player NOT on a contract into the next decade is TC and I believe his agent is 'playing hardball'
