Craig Noone

[hans kraay fan club]

Are you sure it wasn't that we are signing no-one?

 

[Mellotron]

I love Nooney, but the shades of "We'll put the band back together" are threatening to become a little OTT now....

Would agree, except this band was pretty much The Beatles. Definitely worth getting it back together.

 

[Bob!]

Could be returning on loan according to one person on twitter.

There, I've changed it for you.

 

[Hugo Rune]

Great guy but he produced very few Championship assists and goals. Lua Lua, McCourt & Monakana can fill the flair/flatter to deceive role well enough. We need goals not dribbles.

 

[halbpro]

Signed a contract extension until 2018 in November, so would be rather odd for him to move, even on loan.

That's because Noone was played in a system were we he only ever had 1 person to cross the ball to in the box.. Cardiff proved that if you play to a system that suits the wingers he'll do well.

Might as well say Ulloa is coming back on loan because Leicester have signed a new £10M Croatian striker

I hope we're not going to end up with Ringo + 3 blokes from a tribute act. However, no-one can take away Nooney's sublime pass to Buckley 6 August 2011, 98th minute.

Protecting their investment

 

[Diego Napier]

I do agree. Him and E.Bennett are probably two exceptions to the rule in our case. I just hope we're not going to get a load of loans in again.

We've already got Tex, Halford, and J.Bennett. That really should be the limit

Unfortunately though at this time of the year buying rather than loaning usually results in paying over the odds or getting players that other clubs are happy to off-load.

Really!

 

[Gritt23]

Looked at another way though, are we really excited by the prospect of getting the guy who will be understudy to Dean Cox if he stays?

I do remember the start of his final season where plenty on here were slating the club for not having already cashed in on Noone in the summer because he wasn't up to it.

Having said that though, I think Slade has got it wrong, as Noone is the better player IMHO.

 

[Grassman]

Don't Twitter Mrs. Twitter ye not. Get your Twitters out

At least you didn't say "Up Pompey!" and of course dear old Frankie used to play for us.

It's just a twitter rumour. Nowhere else does it say that Slade wants Coxy.

You heard this aswell

Very much this. I'd much rather have Noone than Cox. MUCH rather.

 

[Bozza]

and this one from yesterday

[tweet]552523817122529280[/tweet]

hmmm.

As tweeted by NSC, the Johnson one is not without substance.

(That doesn't mean he will sign though.)

 

[ken tiler]

I think technically, Cox is a better player than No one, but there could be questions over his maturity. I'd sign Cox, and also re-sign his mate Jake Robinson, who is banging in the goals for Whitehawk at the moment. When given the chance, they played very well together.

 

[n1 gull]

Enough loan players FFS. It just breeds an environment of not giving a sh*t. One or two is fine, but 4 or 5 is insanity

Totally agree

 

[the wanderbus]

It was in one of the papers either on Sunday or Monday and it is common knowledge that Slade has always liked Dean Cox ,though I must admit I'd be a bit surprised if Cox ended up at Cardiff
