ohh_ahh_Shearaa 0 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 A West Ham fan on another board claims to have seen GS with Dean Ashton in the capital. Not sure if this is genuine, however, he has posted this claim on both a WH & NU forum. Is he the man we need?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeazesMag 0 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 We need somebody or come January we will be in the middle of a relegation scrap. And if thats the case, stand by for Souness blaming everyone but himself and not having a clue to handle it...unless he's hopefully gone of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S Norman 4 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Ashton would be a fantastic asset to our squad, but not the answer to our current striker problems imo. We would still need a proven quality. I'd love him to sign though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S Norman 4 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Ashton and Cisse could be the best partnership in the Prem for the forthcoming years. Oh, dream on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S Norman 4 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 I'm not so sure this rule exists. Or we can make a loan deal with a permanent move in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1245 Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 He did well last season when he went to Norwich and I admit I haven't seen much of him. But I seem to remember there being talk about the makems going for him at the start of last season and Eric Gates on the bellends saying that the only reason a big club hadn't been in for him was that he was lacking PACE. Can we afford someone like that with our current squad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khay 10 Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Ashton plays down transfer talk Norwich laugh off Ashton rumours Norwich striker Dean Ashton insists he is "more than happy" to stay at the Championship club. The 21-year-old, who joined Norwich in a £3m switch from Crewe in January, has been linked with a move away from Carrow Road. And his future has come under further scrutiny after Norwich agreed a £2m fee for Birmingham's Clinton Morrison. "I want to make it clear I am more than happy at Norwich. I have not asked for a move," he told the Sun. "Unless the board decides otherwise, I am a Norwich City player." Ashton impressed for Norwich last season and scored seven goals in 16 Premiership starts but could not prevent the Canaries from being relegated to the Championship. He has continued his form good this season with two goals in the first three matches. Wigan are the latest club to be linked with the England under-21 international as they have just sold Nathan Ellington to West Brom for £3m. But Norwich manager Nigel Worthington told the club's official website: "There have been no approaches." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donaldstott 0 Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 I've seen him for Crewe twice live, and for Norwich a couple of times on the tele last season. And I can't for the life of think what all the fuss is about. He's slow and distinctly average. We need to get in somebody who could replace Al, Ashton can't... ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
