If you signed Graham then you'd be doing cartwheels,and that my friends is a fact,although you'll never admit it,which i understand.

The guy who started the thread wasn't having a go if you read it properly so why the attitude?? For the record Yes I would love to sign him and so would most City fans I guess. Not sure if he's got the pace to survive in the Prem but you are about to find out and good luck to you. Personally, after the initial shock of you going up instead of us I've pretty much come to terms with it. After all it's about the Club that you support and not about any other team. Who knows where our respective teams will be in 12 months time. Personally I try very hard not to hate your club but it's difficult when you have a Chairman who continually has sly digs at us, players and ex players who use foul language about us on flags, celebrity fans who continually have a pop and even your manager (who I thought was a good guy) joining in too. But I think I understand the root of it all so let it all flow under the bridge.

Graham is a good championship striker-unproven but could be a very good signing. Hope he scores less than 5....
Watford were not mediocre-attacking wise they were excellent. Defensively they were shit. Now where have i heard that......

Agreed-however you do need to add a couple of experienced players to get the right blend.

I know that banterman but my point was that the guy wasn't having a go, which seems to have flown straight over your head. Also you were wrong on another point ie Several of us including me were happy to admit that we'd like to sign Graham, so wrong again. Banter is fine but read the threads properly otherwise wind ups don't work as well. Take it you must be board with your board to spend so much time on here!!
