Transfer Rumour Thread Season 2021/22
York Canary replied to Alex Moss's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Ironic given he was a dud for us. -
Swansea losing!

When I have the benefit of seeing your expectations in black and white before commenting, I think it’s fair for me to refer to it. You plucked mine from your imagination, quite a difference indeed.

Please don’t speak for me. I was simply calling out the fact that it’s wrong to simply judge by two performances, excelling and failing. There are many variables in between. Do I think we should be promoted this season? From here on in, yes. At the beginning of the season? No. We lost two key players, we accumulated £40m in fees, had we spent that money I’d be demanding promotion. At the beginning of the season I’m sure you’d have said Webber and Farke’s would have done a good job if we reached the play offs after the horrendous end of last season and a minimal pre season. Now yours, mine and most peoples expectations have changed but it doesn’t mean we should lose sight on context of the season as a whole.

This is the problem with football fans. Success and failure is so black and white. What constitutes as a ‘good’ or ‘average’ job? You’re basically saying he’ll either have done a great job or failed!

Millwall game not on Sky?
York Canary replied to dylanisabaddog's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
I’d like to apologise to CANARYKING for disagreeing with him as he was in fact correct. Having looked into this a bit closer, there are usually 8 midweek rounds of fixtures in the Championship, and Sky Sports’ regular contract enables them to broadcast all eight via the red button. With there being more midweek rounds this season due to factors, there are some midweek rounds that aren’t included in Sky Sports’ contract. This is one of those rounds. Basically, iFollow is the only way to watch the game tomorrow unless you find yourself an alternative online stream. I hope this helps. -

Okay. Regardless, it’s on the red button. -

Years ago at school our usernames on the PC’s were our surname followed immediately by our first name initial. So for example John Smith’s would be smithj Spare a thought for my classmate Oliver Pead...

York City had a player called Wes York until he was released this summer.

Are Sky and the EPL on the same page?
York Canary replied to TeemuVanBasten's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
It’s because with Sky you pay for your services a month in advance. Hence why your first bill discounted will have been significantly cheaper than the one that followed. My brother works for Sky’s billing team and explained it to me as I queried the same. -

York Canary replied to TeemuVanBasten's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
That’s not the reason. Sky initially implemented the pause on their sports package for 3 months. However the pause is indefinite for as long as their live sports schedule is empty. Your bills will adjust nearer the time, you won’t pay for sports while sports isn’t on. -
This will cheer you up...
York Canary replied to nutty nigel's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
I can see myself front row behind the Barclay goal as that went in. Absolute pandemonium. The sun was shining, strangers hugging, people on the floor, Norwich were on the brink of promotion. I'll never, ever forget that ball trickling over the line, happy days. -
Safe, sensible hands guiding the club
York Canary replied to A Load of Squit's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Never has the term 'Ignore the noise' been more important. It would be easy for the club to have been persuaded to do a u-turn when it comes to furloughing non-playing staff and obviously in an ideal world this would not have happened. Kensell, Webber and co. have continued to make the best decisions for the long-term benefit of the club which is as important now as it has ever been. Hearing the estimated figures that we as one of the best-run teams in the country could lose due to coronavirus really puts into perspective how serious this is going to be for those less well run. Clubs are surely going to fall like dominoes. Worrying times for football but NCFC doing everything right for me so far. -
Bradley Johnson - top man

Class act, is Jonno. -
I like this Mexican solution

Arriba! -
Up to £14.3m. Arise, Sir Tom!

I'm a sucker for nostalgia and all things the past. With that in mind I want to know the things you miss about supporting Norwich. This doesn't necessarily mean you prefer the alternative that the present has given us, for example I miss the old South Stand because of how bad it was, but I know The Jarrold Stand is a massive upgrade! List of things I miss from the past: The hard work put into finding transfer rumours when the internet was in its infancy Getting SMS updates of goals (used to subscribe to 88442, those texts would make or break my week) 1-3 month loan deals, they just don't happen anymore Roy Waller's Radio Norfolk commentary Yellow nets Biking to my local newsagents to pick up a fresh copy of The Pink'un 2 hours after the final whistle was blown Loads of others and I appreciate as a near 30 year old my nostalgia period is a relatively short one, but keen to hear yours too.

And Chris Sutton played for Chelsea. -
To help ease the boredom, here's an interesting debate to have: Name, in your opinion, the best XI to play in the Premier League era (1992 - present). Formation must be 4-4-2 and each player should be put in the position they're best known. The twist? You can't name any player who has played for the following teams: Manchester United, Manchester City, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur. Good luck!
