  1. I saw him too and commented on how good he was.Still not as good as this guy though... 
  2. [url=http://postimg.org/image/m0pniyzof/][img]http://s11.postimg.org/m0pniyzof/pitch.jpg[/img][/url]Yes, seems to be the answer..  Taken by the missus this morning!
  3. We were also playing against a strong wind, and from midfield back were being dazzled by very bright sunlight...which made defending long balls that bit harder which probably goes some way to explain the lack of quality in the first half.  Lucky for Ipswich, the wind had died down and the sky had clouded over by the second half..
  4. [quote user="Bradwell canary"]Why can''t his boss realise how unpopular he is with the majority of the fans. Soon good callers will not ring in, just the people on the same level as him.........[/quote]I''m not so sure he''s unpopular with the majority of the fans at all...just because he''s unpopular with a few people on here, that doesn''t mean the majority of fans dislike him.I''m new as a poster (although a long time reader) so i''m sure i''m going to get lambasted by the regulars for posting this, and called a binner or a plastic, and probably accused of being another Waveney pseudonym, but I can assure you i''m none of the above.  I''ve always been reluctant to post for that very reason, and I wouldn''t mind betting there are a fair few others like me, who can''t be bothered getting involved with the constant bickering between the regular contributors on here.I don''t get to many games, purely because I can''t afford to...but that shouldn''t make anyone consider me any less of a fan than anyone who can afford to go to every home game, and travel the country demonstrating their support at away games.  For that reason I listen to Radio Norfolk a lot for match coverage, and also day to day as a causal listener (and no...I never thought I''d be saying that at age 34 either, but with the tripe that qualifies for the playlists on all the national stations now, I''m happier sticking to songs that have at least stood the test of time even if I don''t like them all.  Radio Norfolk just feels like home now.  It''s just a shame that I have to be woken up by Nicky Price).  Anyway...I don''t agree with everything Rob Butler says, and yes, he does occasionally go off on one...but to me he is good at what he''s there for.  He does come across like any other fan you meet on the street, you can hear the genuine delight when the going''s good, and the despair when things aren''t so rosy.  He seems to have a genuine rapport with Chris Goreham and the other presenters, and with the co-commentators that join him on Canary Call, and I like that.  Calling ex players legends constantly is probably a personal thing to him...a lot of these are footballers he grew up watching as a kid, and he''s clearly a big enough City fan to almost idolise those players so to him, they are legends.I think he''s done OK for himself, landing a job doing what he loves, and I for one don''t mind my license fee paying his wage.  I prefer the thought of him earning the money to it being spent on most of the rubbish on BBC TV nowadays.I have no idea why this is the thread I decided to take the plunge and post on...I think I just felt I should attempt to redress the balance a bit and show a bit of support for the bloke.Sorry for rambling!
