  1. JF Where we came from? Division 1, Championship mid-table mediocrity as most would call it. Being realistic I feel we''re exactly where we should be. Our fans at times seem as entitled as the Villains or Toon Army. Read into "where we came from" as you see fit but that''s my take. And thanks for the critique, I appreciate your well considered contributions.
  2. Hopefully Sheff Utd will attack us leaving themselves open for our football to flourish finding those cheeky little pockets of space we crave so badly. Disclaimer: Hopefully
  3. He probably moved faster than the ''live'' EDP updates...
  4. Broadstairs, I barely have any interaction with you but from posts of yours I''ve read you come across as balanced and realistic! So... Where are ya, les be avin ya! 7 games from a massive upheaval at the club. There''s shoot of green, ze Germans are coming to fruition. This season was never about automatics just an experiment to see what works/what doesn''t. I''m not being blind, I''m being realistic in thinking come what may we have to accept where we are. Yes, mid-table mediocrity but the Championship is not the C of old. It''s becoming increasingly competitive. I feel we are where we expect to be... for now... If Farke is a dud, then we get in another Head Coach. That''s the premise of the model we''re working with. Don''t get too despondent so early. If we''re terrible next March/April then have concerns. Right now it''s as I expected though I appreciate it''s as frustrating as hell. :)
  5. Keep your hair on baldyboy! (never gets old...)
  6. IB - Imagine... Vrancic and RvW in the same lineup... If that doesn''t get you hot under the collar on a blustery Wednesday then I don''t know what will?!!
  7. What I love is this: "we''re crap at defending, we''re going to get relegated at this rate" to "we can''t score, don''t care about clean sheets. we''re going to get relegated at this rate" 7 games in. Seven. 7. Let me repeat that with caps on for effect SEVEN. We''ve been spoilt by the Premier League, stop being so whiney and remember where we came from.
  8. Great choice! There''s a few punk loving Canaries on this forum. Good to see!
  9. @Herman, is that the Fkd Up band logo as your avatar??
  10. He also missed talking in the third person when referring to Big Vince. 6/10
  11. You know, I''d take 1-0. I think Burton will follow the Millwall programme of going direct and attempt to muscle us out of the game. I can''t seem them sitting with 10 men behind the ball waiting to be picked off by Hoolahan. Here''s hoping we set up like we did against Brum and not attempt tika-taka. Not the sort of team to try that with.
  12. I think Lakey means at what stretch is the win. A cheeky 1-0. Or a hammering? Like others have said, potential banana skin. Would like a win of course, a nice comfortable 2-0. But since this is Norwich, we''ll probably go a goal down and take 85 mins to find the equaliser.
  13. TG, as much as I appreciate you''re probably biased towards Tettey, given your namesake, and I''d love him to I doubt his legs can do a whole championship season! Reed will get his chance but Trybull has been encouraging. I guess it''ll be horses for courses.
  14. @Chewie, yep. Same from me. Good choice.
  15. I''d drop zonal marking and play a 4 2 3 1 until the team gets used to each other. I know that''s not the Pep way but we can''t carry on without some form of defensive screening. I don''t understand Farke not running with Tettey and Reed at Millwall but there we are done and dusted now. Most people are right about Husband, but I''m going to give him a few more games before I write him off entirely. He''s hardly played a game last season but I appreciate that isn''t an excuse as he''s a professional footballer and should be used to the nature of the league.
  16. After Millwall my expectations have been significantly lowered. To me the season won''t be a write off, just a learning curve. If there''s no significant change to the pattern of play however towards the tale end of this season then I will be concerned. My biggest annoyance is the lack forethought in terms of giving Farke an experienced Championship coach to the backroom team.
  17. Big Vince. Yeah that''ll tell her, posting on an internet message board. Like who cares? If you did you''d bother forming a group to protest at the ground or hand out flyers outlining your campaign. Instead you just whinge and whine saying the same shit every time Norwich lose. And yeah I get it''s too wind up people on here but it''s sooooo boring and it''s just you repeating over and over again. Instead of Big Vince why don''t you call yourself Uncle Albert ''cos you''re stuck on repeat like a crap Cher track from the late 90''s which no one cared about. I think if our armed forces ever captured a member of Isis for torture they could just read to them reams and reams of your posts - they''d be done in an hour begging for mercy, begging please no more Big Vince and the same BS rambles.
  18. Didn''t we sign Franke for the same sort of amount?
  19. Completely agree, what''s the point of going to watch a football game whether that''s in the pub or at the ground unless you''re going to be entertained. It might well be you stay up under a Pullis but that''s death by a thousand cuts surely?!
  20. He was terrible at Millwall, absolutely shocking. But then the team as a whole were. I hope you''re right Lakey, you are a particularly positive individual.
  21. I rate Zimmermann, pair him with Hanley to learn his trade and that free transfer could work out.
