    Considering where we''ve been for the last 20 years or so, it''s a "hats off" from me to Webber and Farke. They''ve turned around a mammoth decline in a matter of months.Even if we see more departures (largely because of prior mistakes and mismanagement), why would anyone expect more at this stage?

    Internacional to win against Sao Luiz.Nearly all on a Norwich win with small covering stakes on 0-0 and 1-1.Good luck pups!I can do the six Nigel. My wife will help!

    [quote user="lappinitup"][quote user="komakino"]In theory it cannot happen, because she personally does not own the majority of shares, but with MWJ''s, she does (e.g Chase/Lockwood). Whether she uses MWJ shares to veto anything and/or something has been agreed in writing I don''t know, but the veto was 100% played regarding the non sacking of Neil at Xmas ''16.[/quote]Prior to their involvement in the football club, MWJ was a successful businessman and Delia was a TV personality. I do think his role in the club is ignored due to his wife''s public persona. I really don''t think if he and the other board members make a decision his wife can overrule them. It makes no sense.[/quote]A woman needs to be guided by the firm hand of her husband, and a husband needs to be kept on the straight and narrow by his wife.Marriage needs to be a partnership where both sides support each other, as opposed to one domineering over the other. It seems that Delia has been domineering over Wynn-Jones if these rumours are correct.

    Klose''s goal is up there with the one Neil Adams scored in front of the Barclay End against Leeds in 1994. It was an injury time winner very similar to yesterday''s goal, after having conceded an 89th minute equaliser.

    [quote user="Van wink"]There is a brilliant bit of video on Facebook filmed by Scummers in the away area leading up to and including Tim’s goal, the stunned silence and the celebration by Hanley in front of them is a joy to behold. Sorry but I can’t link it.[/quote]This one?[url=https://www.facebook.com/hroutledge1/videos/g.2215487723/1802381709772477/]https://www.facebook.com/hroutledge1/videos/g.2215487723/1802381709772477/[/url]

    Dulwich Hamlet to win against Enfield Town (2/5)The best way to maximise winnings on the Norwich bet under Farke is to not bet on scorers. We have only scored more than once on a few occassions, both home and away, making these bets an expensive raffle ticket! I would try backing 1-0 (11/2), 0-0 (17/2) and 1-1 (13/2).Good luck pups!

    [quote user="Feedthewolf"][quote user="Eccles from Beccles"]I''m consistently amazed that anybody takes this jerk-off seriously.[/quote]He isn''t capable of adult debate, so takes pleasure in trying to bring people down to his level. Most people grow out of this kind of behaviour by the time they reach double figures, but sadly some are destined to spend their lives trying to irritate others rather than bring anything meaningful or constructive to their existence.And it should never be forgotten that he called Norwich fans racists, and openly stated that Chris Hughton was forced out of the club due to City fans'' racial prejudice. Moron of the highest order.[/quote]It sounds like Waveney was engaging in a bit of Chris Morris type humour!

    [quote user="lincoln canary"]Len... piggy really gets off on trying to point score over me. He’s not bothered about anyway else who is remotely negative.[/quote]I think young Hogesar is enjoying the boot being on the other foot for a change. He''ll probably admit to being over-positive in the past.I myself was one of the biggest groaners until Webber showed up and halted the post-Chase/Stringer decline.

    [quote user="hogesar"]I said from the start that the amount of changes is going to take time for things to settle and if anything it looks like things are starting to come together sooner rather than later. But we shouldnt jump the gun. Thats what the likes of Lincoln did 4 games into the season, writing off all our signings and calling Webber a fraud.[/quote]There were lots of people writing off Webber and Farke around November time. Cheap League Two standard signings and an "out of his depth" reserve team manager playing poor Hughton-style football were going to relegate us if I remember correctly.One or two doomsters seem to be taking an extended break from posting. Perhaps we should have some sort of amnesty and welcome these poor souls back?Going back a bit further, plenty criticised buying young hotshots as a waste of money after Hughton''s departure. It''s only now starting to really bear fruit, with Maddison worth a lot more than the entire outlay.

    Well done Cosmic Twin, the run of wins over £10 continues. The lucky fox is still powering the Norwich bet!

    Boyaca Chico to beat Independiente Meddelin (13/5)For the Norwich game, I would try and capitalise on our tendency to keep the scores low by betting on such scorelines. Our away record at Derby is very even, so a draw is most likely. You could put money on 1-0, 2-0 and 2-1 to cover a home win, and 0-1, 1-2 to cover an away win.The rest could be staked on 0-0 and 1-1, £4 could return over £30!Good luck ladies and gents!

    [quote user="king canary"]I''ve been critical of some of Robin''s tweets but having been made aware of some of the vile abuse he''s been on the receiving end of I''m not surprised he''s logging off twitter. You may not like some of what he says and you may not agree with the Trust''s position (I certainly don''t pretty often) but some of what he has been subjected to is so far beyond the pale it is unbelievable.[/quote]I wouldn''t excuse some of the recent stuff that''s been aimed in his direction, but him and the trust seem to be rather pro-active in dragging issues up, inflaming the situation and trying to get people banned during the ensuing fall out. A fan group (which is purportedly representing fans) experiencing a rough time on Twitter is to be expected in the real world. Instead of taking a neutral stance and trying to calm incidents, the present situation has been allowed to get totally out of hand with each group being hostile toward and baiting the other.It got to the stage where one person pretended to be selling tickets at a vastly inflated price in order to lure the Canary Trust into publically reporting them to the club on Twitter. The trust could have privately reported the matter instead of adding fuel to the fire.The leadership of the Canary Trust ought to be more diplomatic and discreet in similar instances. I''m not sure Robin Sainty is suitable to lead the group if he can''t handle the situation on social media.

    [quote user="PurpleCanary"]At a tangent, I am slightly surprised no-one has referred to the point that the club seems to be saying it may divulge explantory information to the Trust that will not be made public. I suppose that is a tribute to the Trust that the club feels it can rely  on it not to break that confidence.[/quote]Such a situation, together with the trust not sending anyone to SCG mettings, adds to the suggestion that they are nothing more than an extension of the club board rather than a genuine fan representative organisation. Perhaps the trust''s tagline of "In the hands of the fans" ought to be changed to "In the hands of the Robin Sainty"?Sainty seems to spend half his time patrolling Twitter telling his legion of followers that himself and the club are victims of a unwarranted hate campaign. This usually seems to involve cherrypicking examples from social media, often quite mild dissent, and exaggerating their malicious intention and effect.

    [quote user="hogesar"][quote user="JF"]Len wrote the following post at 02/02/2018 12:46 PM: The colour scheme looks extremely drab to me. Why would someone with all that money choose to live in such a dull environment? Myself and my work colleagues were the decorators that worked on the house through an interior designer. It certainly isn’t drab and I’d say one of the best we’ve worked on. Lovely house and equally lovely people[/quote]I was going to say, it''s been very well designed in my opinion and the interior colours compliment one another and the rooms themselves brilliantly.[/quote]It''s a matter of taste Hogesar, I''m not really a fan of creme, greeny grey, brown schemes. I''d personally add some vibrant colours to give a more balanced look and include some patterning in the decoration. I''d use some darker colours and if needed balance this with some extra lighting.My wife chooses the colour schemes and furniture in our house. Our niece (who is an artist) does the painting and her husband the tiling. I''m in charge of the carpeting, fascia, anything electronic (eg stereo, television) and garden.

    Foolad to beat Sanat Naft (4/6).Norwich 2-1 Middlesbrough (9/1).Good luck pups.

    I did feel sorry for Michelle when her six failed to win the same week as I did the Norwich bet, as it would have been nice for her to have won too. Her bet was due to return the exact same amount as mine, and for a time it seemed as if a perfect double win was on the cards.It must be sad for those who weren''t aware that Michelle was ill, but I''m sure those close to her will be comforted by the fact that it wasn''t a sudden, unexpected departure.

    Unlucky Hoola. Good picking Wooster (and Jamie last week).We are on a run of wins with the Norwich bet. £100 from the last four weeks?

    PurpleCanary, I think you''re underestimating our capabilities with the revamped Chase-Stringer model that Webber has implemented. The Chase-outers of yesteryear will struggle to explain top 6 finishes and regular spells in the top flight.Developing (cheaply bought) young talent, selling our best players for big profits and upgrading facilities is a recipe for disaster, surely?!

    Metropolitanos to beat Puerto Cabello (evens). The odds look very attractive to me with the new manager seeming to be a good choice and the opponent having luck to be promoted.For Norwich a draw seems a good bet, covered by a home win.

    We always used to know the local village policeman (PC Norton), but these days I wouldn''t know who he was. Having PC 1010 around is a bit like the old days in this respect.

    It''d probably be cheaper to go to London and have a really decent meal than endure three courses of the rubbish served up at Delia''s.
