Rank bad buy?!based on what? A goal on his debut? A strong performance against the league champions? Or a desire to have a good moan?

[Snaxo]

I saw a comment from Alan Pardew saying that NUFC were highly irritated at what happened with Remy as he was the only striker of real quality available during the transfer window.

Not sure I agree with W12 - I think he looked a great buy.

Having said that he has hardly played much recently and spoke himself about the fact that he is injury prone, and the slightest things sideline him, so to sign on a deal with a get out clause with relegation, could mean we pay him 80k a week (guessing the wage as I don't know it) and only get a couple of performances from him.

That would be dreadful for TF and the fans.

Based on the fact that he had started 1 game this season prior to us signing him , is already known to be a crock, by his own admission goes missing in games and looks like more of a winger than a striker. Add to this his relegation clause and you have one rank bad signing who I have absolutely no faith will score the goals to keep us up even if he was fit all season which incidentally I don't think he will be as the slightest niggle will sideline him.

So basically he is a bloody buy

[pblockranger]

The club just took extra soton tix so probs tell us when they're sold

If he is sidelined for a few weeks and we don;t see much of him it will prove to be a bad buy, but that is the beauty of hindsight. At the time it looked like a great buy and could still turn out to be.

Yes, maybe it was risky, but when you are bottom and not a "big club" and in our situation - sometimes risks are required.

No need to take the risk though was there plenty of players available at that price ....typical flash arry signing has the hallmarks of John Utaka written all over it

dont agree with much you spout but i think you may well be right on this one, the interveiw he did in the paper just after we signed him worried the ****e outta me!

Who was available?

[W12_Ranger]

Who was available?

Danny Graham, Peter Crouch, an offer on Darren Bent possibly that Charlie Austin fella....Grant Holt!!!

All players I would have signed ahead of Remy
