Re: How much is Snodgrass worth?
12 million is a lot for a player that turns 30 this year, particularly for a club that tries to play it sensibly, financially. I'd love to see Snodgrass at Burnley but would prefer us to spend money on players that have the potential to turn a profit, where possible. It's a more sensible approach co...

Had a glance at the Norwich forum and there were a good few saying they'd hope not to sell Pritchard, that he's got great potential and hasn't been given a fair run by their manager.

Re: robert snodgrass
He's nothing like Dean Marney who was not at Hull whilst Snodgrass was there. In fact Boyd and Snodgrass may have only passed each other as one was leaving and the other joining.

Re: What's your favourite pie?
That's my thought, Spades.
I assume it's a lower ratio of meat to potato. I'd always opt for more meat and less potato, which to me would be a meat and potato pie. I wouldn't be having it with pickled vegetables of any variety either
