If Swindon wanted to keep him surely they would have gone back to him with a new contract offer as he only has a year left ?
Or have they and he has turned it down ?

For us to make all this effort we must already know what sort of money he is after, or he really is desperate to try his hand somewhere else

We are bound to sign him,as we were bound to lose Crofts,(and maybe Murray )once Norwich wanted him. If Swindon replace him with Barrett,i wonder who has made the right decision.

jesus you are all mental.

I agree with you, Norwich are way bigger than us, currently at least. And isn't that why this analogy was made in the first place?

Crofts went to Norwich because they are bigger than us. If Greer does sign I don't think it will be beacuse we are a bigger club (or not) than Swindon.

We may be a noddy outfit at the moment (almost as noddy as you, in fact) but some of us remember that in 1978/1979 as we charged up the league, we were the tenth best supported club in the country for two seasons. Putting that into context, that's moreorless where West Ham are now.

I'm not suggesting we'll reach those heights ever again, certainly not any time soon, but there's no reason why we can't leave tin pot clubs like yours behind for good.

And the evidence is there for all to see. Season tickets for the Amex are selling well**, and premium seats and lounges have sold like hot cakes. You just don't like what you're hearing so I'm sorry about that. :bigwave:

**Edit: I meant season tickets for Withdean, because they give you priority for Falmer tix.

Without getting all Billy Big-Boots - Norwich are the Club I use to illustrate to people that with a stadium we can be closest to in terms of catchment area and support.

We are miles away at the moment of course - but as Simster points out - in a few years - why not ?

To be fair to swindon they have a big catchment area too: Unfortunately : swindon is nowhere near as desirable as brighton to live
