Seems legit. Andrew Haigh reckons the club accepted the bid yesterday. So Mr Leeds United for a season departs (maybe). He can have a rest again once he's got his signing on fee sorted.

So Norwich have three players off us for less than £5m...we have been such a well run club.

Which is fair enough.After all he'll be judged by his results won't he. :D

Warnock is a the football manager equivilant to a dead man walking......

I´d agree it looks like Snodgrass has given the takeover as long as he dare and he´s not prepared to wait any longer.Howson as well all know has his position and when played there is very effective.Forget Nunez Reg, he´s too small for English football, along with Iniesta, Messi, and the rest of the Barcelona team, I´m not suggesting he´s brilliant or anything, just that he will never be trusted and given a chance. He is too one footed to be played out wide, and they will never risk him in the middle, so they might as well offload him now.

£1.5m leading to £3m....club confirm bid accepted, expect bad mouthing of Snoddy to start from Warnock soon.

It´s not really bad mouthing though is it. It says nothing worse than he´s had his head turned. Bates would have had more to say if he gave a fuck.

Warnock is and always has been a corporate man and is now doing the Bates job for him, the accent has changed but the tone of club commications hasn't, its always someone elses fault when we sell a player!

Nunez will probably go, maybe back to MLS.

What I'd love to see now is a some good quality signings, a positive takeover and Narridge to struggle like fuck for the firsat 10 games. Them bottom, us top and a certain thirsty Scotsman wondering if he made the right choice.All them fat farmers daughters in Norfolk with have another sex pest to deal with too.

I wish Snodgrass well, I do think he´s the closest we will come to a throwback footballer who has some affinity with the game and the club and who doesn´t just listen to his agent, lets face it he would have long gone if it was purely about money. He would have fit in well with the Sheridan team. Footballers can´t win can they, they get knocked for being aloof and remote, and they get knocked if they behave anything like a normal person.
