Its Mike Norton.

Its Mike Norton.

For definite?

Just looked him up. Over 200 goals in five seasons for Curzon Ashton and 5 goals in 6 games for FC United this season.

Looks very promising.

I know the conference is a massive step up but this Norton lad has an amazing scoring record lets bloody gamble on him !!!!!

[andrewflynn]

If it is him FC Utd are f**ked for upfront... hahaha

Didn't he appear in a pre-season friendly (or two) for Alty two or three seasons ago?

[oneedham]

That was another Norton, can not remember his first name !!!! he was a wide player

[stubmanred]

Cult,

You are correct, it was Mike Norton, he played a couple of pre season friendlies 2 pre seasons ago having come from Curzon Ashton after scoring 49 goals in a season. For some reason Graham didn't rate him, he went back to Curzon scored another 30+ goals and then FCUM picked him up.

I'd be suprised if it was him, although he clearly has an eye for goal. Whoever it is, there is a lot of pressure on his shoulders from day 1. I would expect that if another comes in, then 1 of the existing strikeforce will go (I would suggest Holsgrove or Reeves because Twiss is on Contract and McCarthy still needs time...)

Its gonna be Joe O'neill 

[PukkaPieman]

I cant say any more.

You're thinking of Blake Norton!

Blake?

[oneedham]

Yeah Blake Norton after i sent my post I remembered his name, sod's law !!!

This sounds feasible to me. If Colin has played alongside him, and rates him, then we'd certainly take HIS word that the lad is worth a chance.

After the fans forum i went up to GH and asked about mike norton to which he responded ''he is not good enough for this level''.

That may depend on which level we are talking about, conference or our current crop of players.
