  1. Watford and Blackburn are massive games, and neither will be easy, win them both and we can start looking at all the permutations, don''t, and as Morty says the whole dynamics change, but l like what is coming from AN at the moment, good read on the back of the EDP this morning just want to see it transfer into points on these next 2 games and "watch us fly"

  2. Be a shame if Derby fans boycott us, they are quite a vocal support, and I would hate them to miss out on a great game, and their team be deprived of their passionate support....... but then again maybe that would release some more for our supporters on the waiting list !

    Longer terms though clubs need to look seriously at pricing, especially away fans, I like the idea of £20 for every club to away supporters, always a better atmosphere in any ground when a big away support, start it next season though http://services.pinkun.com/forums/pinkun/cs/emoticons/emotion-10.gif

  3. Different test this weekend, Watford at Vicarage Road will be tough, will AN change anything for this game ? personally I think it will be same 11, with Dorrans on the bench,

    Ruddy

    Whittaker, Martin, Bassong, Olsson,

    Tettey

    Redmond, Howson, Johnson

    Hooper

    Grabban

    Could be a good game to start Wes, but who would you drop to accommodate, a must win game so need goals, hence I think he will stick with Hoops and Grabban.


  4. [quote user="Indy"]Whats this quality? Solid, good for this division....but quality really....Huckerby was quality, so if he comes that good I''ll be delighted.

    He''s such quality only played 9 games this season.....again don''t shoot me but have you really seen him play the ladt 2 seasons.......good signing like I said but some do go over the top.

    Fair point to the injuries though we do need good cover and options can see this as a good signing for cover and to add to the choice in squad.[/quote]

    I think that sums it up, "adds good cover and options and adds to the choice in the squad" has played for his country and experienced player at a good age, sounds good to me!!

  5. [quote user="Lewis Esquire"]I''ve read a few stories this past week or so regarding the future of our young canaries, McGeehan and Toffolo to name but a few who are unsure of their futures.

    It''s got me thinking - Are Norwich City missing a trick, or a pair of balls?

    You look at the like of Southampton, plying their trade at the top end of the Premier League this season, yet when they have a player out injured or suspended, they have no fear in playing a ''kid'' in the first teamers place. A lot of us ''fans'' on here are of the impression that any of our youth players playing for NCFC in the championship is unheard of, yet Southampton will happily chuck a ''child'' into the mix.

    Does or is Tony Andreu really offering any more than McGeehan could do? (Yes, I know he''s only just signed and i''ve made a snap judgement but it''s ''the point'' i''m trying to get across).

    I like the Southampton philosophy of playing the kids, and you could argue about them being a ''different level'' but I think it comes down to chances, and we, at Norwich, don''t give our young players enough of a try before shipping them out.

    We will rue the loss of McGeehan if he disappears in the summer, the same for Toffolo and eventually Morris too. Yes they need to get experience currently, but I believe these players should be forming the nucleus of our team for the future[/quote]

    Lewis all good sensible stuff, but how do you make them the nucleus of the team for the future, even bringing in one that you are not 100% sure of is a risk (Josh) I think all supporters love to see a home grown talent make it to regular 1st team football, what happened to Aki at Chelsea, he looked a class act when our youth played them, he was a millionaire before he got to 18, but to my knowledge nowhere near 1st team football. There is always an exception, ask Alan Hansen, famous for his "you will win now''t with kids" statement, I don''t think other than maybe Toffolo we have any exceptional talent in our midst, not that I am an expert talent spotter.

  6. Too many potentials for a banana skin in the play offs, which would be unbearable if happened to us with "them", they should end up 7th and we should still be aiming for an automatic until impossible to do so.

    Couldn''t take another millennium stadium day, too much to bear, flew down there that weekend, and on the flight back the mood was so black I think most would have jumped out at 3,500 feet !
