    Not really,just an observation.
    Nearly 26yrs old,only 5ft 9in tall
    Playing and scoring record,nothing special.
    Cannot see the point.
    We have better options already on the books.

    Six goals and an assist in 11 games this season? He got a fair number of assists last season too.

    I can see why a number of Championship clubs might be sniffing around. I do not think 5’9” is too small for a left winger.

    If we lose Cantwell and/or Buendia, he might be the right sort of replacement.

    The main thing I would be interested in is if his assists and general chance creation is skewed towards low through balls. If so, I don’t care how small he is.

    Fair comment,but if his former club Forest are interested,I would expect him to return.
    One other point.
    We have shopped at Lincoln before , and that was fruitless

    You guys must follow alot of foreign and lower league football I am embarrassed to admit that before I read the rumour on News now this morning I had never heard of Edward Grant or seen him play .

    I certainly wouldn't be able to make a judgement on him coming here.

    I presume he would be very cheap which marks him out as a possible Norwich signing plus he's only 25 .

    There are gems out there in League 1 to be unearthed I'm sure.

    I have never heard of him! I just meant that from a cursory glance, I can see why we might be interested.

    He’ll only be of interest if he gets injured regularly.

    I wouldn't call that any kind of journalism. It is a rehash of months old FACTS (courtesy Colu mike ) Ioften wonder at the journalistic training that goes into being so lazy and incompetent.

    Journalism today seems more to do with trying to make news, rather than simply reporting it
