Lol yeah because we've had to put up with loads over the recent few years, especially that terrible time of the play off final, and then winning the league, and then an amazing season in the Premiership where we were unlucky to get relegated!! I don't know how us fan's put up with the board then! and then they've supported all of our managers with as much money as we can afford, and they've built on Carrow Road to make it look amazing. I often hear fans of clubs such as Leeds, Bournemouth, Cardiff, Southampton etc saying "times our bad here, but thank god we don't have Norwich City's board!"

In other words guys, we have it quite good here at Norwich City, try supporting one of those other clubs!

Unlucky to be relegated? The lowest points for safety in premiership history, the most improtant game of the season and we lost 6-0 to an average Fulham side, yeah very unlucky. Perhaps if they had coughed up 1m for crouch who they thought wasnt worth the price instead of £750,00 for Doherty or signed Ashton in August we may have stayed up. The board failed us in the premiership and have cocked things up ever since.

The only thing I would say to the above is regarding Ashton. I thought the only reason we got him in January was because he'd scored 20 goals between august and december. Before that he was relatively unknown, wasn't he? Or have I got that wrong. I just can't remember his name before Jan 2005.

Badly handled takeovers are not the players or fans fault are they? Maybe old Delia and co will do us a favour and show em all how to sensibly deal with a takeover.

And Maybe Delia has already done us all a favour and showed how to sensibly avoid badly handled takeovers. You just don't know do you ArthurHuh? [:^)] Just any takeover doesn't mean it's a good takeover does itHuh? [:^)]

Thats why we are where we are little old norwich with their forgive anything fans who think Delia is God. All i said if she has only 25 mill why is she trying to do something which takes millions more, its like going in a card game with your last 100 quid, if you cannot afford to loose it, dont play the game. Some of you have your heads so far up Delia's Arris you cant see the wood for the trees. Delia like Worthy has out stayed her welcome, she cannot take us forward. We have another summer of two bob loanees to look forward to, linked with loads of names, buying none, same shxt different day, oh yea and on top of that all you Percy's telling us how lucky we are to have her, sorry but i dont feel very lucky.

 

The local media play a part in this - Today for example - 'Is this the new Hucks' - If we don't get Hoolihan now everyone is gonna be peed off. So why do they do this ? I'd rather know when the ink is on the contract.

Yes, the Editors of the EEN and EDP will want Norwich City stories from their writers every day. What are you to do in the summer months when nothing is happening. What would you think if you went on the homepage in the next few days and found nothing - no news.  You'd be disappointed.

As for Bormingham, it doesn't help that their board are an unsavoury bunch who seem to want to blame Steve Bruce for everything. The fans are complaining because they were relegated and they want someone to blame. There is a huge blame culture in football which I don't like. Having said all that, I didn't see many Brum fans clamouring for Bruce to be retained when he left.

Worthy should have gone after Fulham no excuses, that game was a blxxdy disgrace, i liked the man, still do, but he stayed too long, maybe if he went after fulham a new man with a summer window, might have done better, that we will never know, because city bottled it as per usual.

Would he have made it to the January window though, as it appeared that he had lost a fair few of the players.  Probably not as many as Grant in the following season mind you, maybe we'd have had a clearout a season earlier ?

Ifs, buts, maybes...


It's getting a bit busy on this fence, nigel...
