  1. No idea, but there were plenty doing it and to be fair it brightened up a dull afternoon at that point
  2. and completely for now, sucked out of this great club. Nigh on 20 thousand supporters there for an unfashionable but potentially exciting tie against a mid table league 1 side. Starting with our main strikers, our best defender and club captain and defenders who have been involved enough this season. In fact other than Forshaw virtually every player in that starting line up had previously started games recently. It was a strong line up. The ground is full of new young supporters, probably here for the first time this season, excited at a potentially positive attacking display by city and what do we end up? An abjectly poor, lethargically mind numbing, painfully disjointed and frankly tediously boring 1-1 drab 90 minutes of uninspiring pointlessly ineffective football. Hang your heads in shame Norwich senior management. The coaching/tactics/in game management/will to win attitude/forward fast integrated play/aggression etc etc etc, is missing in action yet again. Enough is enough. Sort it out NCFC, this is simply not acceptable, otherwise I strongly suspect you will reap the whirlwind that is coming!
  3. Can't see why not. In fact he was quite integral to our play early doors and it is obvious since coming back from injury we have heavily relied on him. Give him a brief break and have him back fighting for us (in the footballing sense of course). People have short memories at times it seems.
  4. Let's be frank here. If Wagner had tried to match Southampton we would have been spanked and out of the game within 20-30 minutes. That we managed a point and not lose against what is clearly one of the best teams to come here this season is a low positive, but a positive non the less. I certainly feel we need a change of manager and coaching staff due to many reasons not least the latest poor showing at Millwall. However give the man credit for yesterday, he set us up and it worked. I'm not convinced he will cement us in the playoffs and suspect we will bounce around 7-10th for the remainder of the season, unless we remain injury free possibly.
  5. Like to see Hanley with KM in center defence and Rowe and Sainz both to start. Unfortunately can see them steamroller us early on so we will need to be absolutely resolute. Now off to the game. Lets make some noise OTBC
  6. My thoughts exactly. ipswich will take care of themselves. We need the win and some momentum to return with our players back
  7. It would have been a huge risk at the time, in any way you look at it (with the exception of hindsight of course). Not sure it would have worked out
  8. Heart says City win, head says Southampton walk away with it. Struggling to see it any other way unfortunately. However, we have our main striker back and Sainz, anything could happen.
  9. If the saints do win tomorrow ( I hope they don't ) it will have no effect on our manager situation. He is here until the end of the season, and to be frank considering the possible alternatives (realistic ones) we may as well stick rather than twist at this point.
  10. my fellow city fans. Onwards and upwards in 2024. Fingers crossed for a barnstorming half of the season to come. Surely cant be as uncertain as the first half?
  11. Injured I believe (not sure how though)
  12. Oh, we have someone at the wheel. It's just that we have two punctures, a badly cracked windscreen, its raining, our wipers are split and with only first and reverse gear modes available, our managers forgotten to take off the handbrake!
  13. Having attended the ground since a young boy in the 70s I personally would be very disappointed if we moved to an out of town location and whilst I agree regarding the soul of the ground and the old Barclay etc, it's still Carrow Road. It's still the ground situated on the edge of a superb city centre, one we never tire of walking through, stopping at a pub or for a coffee before getting there. It's still the ground near a semi decent road network and good rail link. I agree it's a bit soulless now however, I suspect that's nothing to how some iron/plastic bowl near the showground or A11 might be. Return of the flags/banners and some fight on the pitch and things will improve. Would like to see the ground developed and I believe another 7-8 thousand seats could be marketed to sell. Costs and viability? God knows
  14. It's clear to see we benefitted from having experience in the team second half and could have nicked a point. Despite losing the team should take a lot of encouragement from that game.
  15. Welcome aboard Canadian canary, you have picked a real club to follow and not succumbed to the easy options of one of the top 6 in the PL (which would always disappoint you). Life is rarely dull as a City fan, that's for sure.
  16. The first of many such situations, hopefully. The shape of him in that!
  17. The cretin who sits behind me never makes a noise in support. Que the return from injury of one of our players and low and behold he's winging loudly, tutting and acting like a petulant child. Our 'support' is baffling at times
  18. Certainly a great place to be if you get a result.
  19. Now that is a clear and precise tactic. Did it work?
  20. Attacking a car carrying octogenarians! How very, very brave you must be.
  21. You sir are an utter, utter cetin with your constant embarrassing lame excuses towards your team of bottlers. Do yourself and the rest of that pathetic support down there a favour, get a grip and f89k off
  22. For any true binner supporter to be able to actually mentally remember a registered win against us they would have to actually be at least 20 plus years old or more. Just let that sink in. Now you can see why they are so unhappy and embarrassed.
  23. We are missing our captain and his CB partner, our stand out first choice striker, our inform international left back and with our midfielder playing in the CB position. They are selecting from a full squad. This was their day! AND THEY STILLL CANT BEAT US 🤣
