This Week's Relegation Zone Matches ...
ghoul replied to NorthCarolinaYellow's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Games like Newcastle Vs Everton and Villa vs Leeds you should always want a draw at this point in the season, because that way a point goes missing, and neither team makes full advantage. -
****The Official Lapps Match Thread v Villa (PL) *****

Stand back, stand back, stand back, oh they've scored -
Let's be honest.. if we are to realistically expect to even have a chance of survival this season. We. Have. To. Win. This. 2 - 1 to us. Emi to score and not celebrate.

****The Official Lapps Match Thread v Man Utd (PL) *****
ghoul replied to chicken's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Happily surprised to see us compete so well given the circumstances. I thought the whole team did well. Which makes 0 points even more gutting quite honestly. Sargent did really well today in everything except shooting. Maybe striker isn't his best position? It got glossed over in commentary, but he managed to step on and fall over the ball in their 6 yard box. Made me laugh.. what else can you do at this stage? -
Your Man United predictions
ghoul replied to cambridgeshire canary's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Ronaldo hatrick. We lose by 6 goals. General play prediction we'll string passes together for long periods while manure sit and wait for us to **** up, then break quickly and score. Rinse, repeat. I do really really hope I'm wrong though. -

DG for BW. LR for BG. Tell them to just take a bloody shot now and again. -

Things we are likely to see this season

Beating a top 6 team, then following it up by losing to a bottom 6 team. -
I still think NCFC needs a bigger ground than Ipswich.

I think in the past the sheer weight of expectation, particularly from the red top media, has been not just unjustifiable but has actually hindered matters. Imagine being in the position where you are representing your country and the press thinks you should not just play to your potential, but win a whole tournament. And we all know how the same press reacts when they fail.. players/managers singled out for villification and ridicule.. .. still able to give your 100% focus to the cause? I think this changing of the narrative from expectation to underdogs by the England camp is a direct consequence of that. And it appears to be working. Just enjoy the ride. Be in it to win it, and we're still in it.

Pritchard contract not renewed by Huddersfield
ghoul replied to The Bristol Nest's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Have him back if he'll slash wages, put performance clauses In contract etc. Use as backup/cup player, with championship in mind should we go back down. 2 year deal with 1 year option. If it works out we could even sell him again lol. -
One more than Rotherham will do

No Lakey the goals won't come. Our final ball generally not good enough. our one decent striker is playing with an injury. Not enough depth in squad to sub him out even for a fully fit striker. Not enough goals coming from midfield. No goals coming from defenders. Not throwing toys out the pram but Jesus man open your eyes. You can still be positive and realistic at the same time!

I think we were promoted a season too early, and therefore were not ready for the premier this season. Not having the finances to sign enough quality players, plus not having the depth in the squad to cope with the inevitable injuries throughout the season, has brought us to the halfway point in the season without enough points. Doesn't mean I think we should sack the board, the manager, make knee jerk signing we can't afford in a vain attempt to stay up etc. It is what it is, disappointing yes, but we're not strong enough this season to stay up. We do play some nice stuff, but results don't lie more often that not. I do hope we can still bend a few noses in the second half of the season, develop our squad further, attract promising new talent to bulk out the academy, hang on to Webber and Farke (and yes the board too). I expect a few of our top players will move on, but I fully expect we will find interesting replacements who we will all support fully whichever league we are in next year. But I'm 95% certain that will be the championship.

Liverpool fielding weakened team
ghoul replied to Michael Starr's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
It's a cup game -
My guess would be if we are planning to sell we''ll want a bit more than that... nearer the 6m mark but will probably settle for 4.5m. Would be a shame as I think TK still has a lot to offer for us and it would be more difficult to replace him with anyone of a silica standard for the money. That said, you can''t say he''s that strong an option for the future presuming we can push for promotion next season, so there is a case for bedding in a new defensive partnership.
-
I just can''t see us winning this with current tactics and squad... I would rather we didn''t park the bus and likely lose anyway So why not just throw caution to the wind and play 3 at the back something like: -mcgovern- -martin-2 of zimmerman/klose/stieperman/husband- -pinto-reed-trybul-vrancic-murphy- -wes or naismith- -watkins-jerome-

whatever will be will bewe''re going to Way-vaney!
