    Lets hope next season on MOTD they have this and then our Pride of Anglia banner as part of the intro.

    I was thinking something similar, a scheme to encourage new ST holders , perhaps over a two/three year span and to include a season ticket incentive to us with one already. If there was ever a time to do this it is now. Our footballing style has been praised highly over the season and it is superb to say the least. It has caught the attention of the public and if the last scheme was anything to go by I suspect raising at least 3 x that amount again may be possible. An extension to the GW stand for me, 5-6000 extra, max. New blood, younger supporters introduced. Besides, there is nothing between here and London to compete or compare!

    Thought Ivo was a good captain for us in a difficult period. Really liked his attitude and desire for the club and wish him well. One of my sons favourite players here. Good luck Ivo.

    Spot on. There were many people providing excuses and mitigating it, trying to write it off as a nothing event. They are wrong in my opinion. The facts speak for themselves! The rest is conjecture.

    I would have Green in goal and Holt on the bench. Bassong first season would be immense. Loved Drury but Lewis is the better modern day version, ditto most of our attacking midfield However, the team we have now is simply one of the best 'teams' I've seen play for us in decades.

    The right player right club situation is extremely important in football especially at clubs where value for money is so important. My observations having watched him live a number of time this season is that he would (at the right price) be an excellent signing for us. We have witnessed him coming on with literally minutes to spare and being successful, maintaining pressure and either scoring or being very, very close to scoring. He has the ability to find the ball in the six yard box under pressure and when we are chasing a game next season that could be crucial. There is not a chance I would want JR to be our main striker but as a back up? Absolutely. Many times we have gone up, had whole sale changes and systems and it rarely works for more than a couple of seasons. lets develop and progress as a club with predominantly players we know. We certainly need 'help' in some areas but in the striking department I believe we have two in place already, just need to either extend one or make it permanent.

    The funny thing is that next season in the prem, this 'tactic' may actually work. Just do not mention it again and hope the media have bigger and better stories to run.

    just about my thoughts as well. The longer I support this club the more patient I have become and 'accepting' of our place in the footballing world. It certainly generates a more calming outlook. Some of the games last year we looked like world beaters for a period and I thought we could do well. The start of this I with other saw a stutter and resigned myself to another season of adjustment. The rest is history, bring on next season...…………...

    Not sure I agree entirely with the OP and to be clear, Daniel Farke's English is far better than my German, so I'm very pleased he completes his interviews in our native tongue. The other bit regarding Wilder, I can see to a degree where you are coming from and if Wilder was our manager with that no nonsense style, I suspect a large part of our support would love it. He is passionate about Sheffield United and apart from that rant regarding us, he has been generous in his praise. After all he knows when he sees a good team. Given a choice? Daniel Farke for my team every day of the week. OTBC

    To be perfectly frank, by the time the Premiership starts next season, no one will even know what supporters of crappy teams like ipswich think about us. We will be hosting the best teams in the country and unfortunately for the terminally afflicted like them, there will be no time for us to show them compassion or commiseration. This lack of attention will of course irk them, but that is the affect of success like ours and failures like theirs.

    I am fully aware he is not a Norwich fan, but he is a P3nis non the less.
  12. East Rider
    P155 off keith scott you utter, utter p3nis
  13. East Rider
    There was only one team going to win that, and that was the Express. Great result great team.

    'Success by association' quest by the Binners?

    If you do go , look out for the Henry Kable cell in the castle. He was a teenager sent out on the first ships to the penal colonies. Imprisoned at Norwich as a young boy when taken out on a burglary by his father in south Norfolk. Became one of the forefathers of Australia and an important man out there. A book called Enduring Spirit describes it in detail and is tragic and graphic in equal measures, to say the least.
  16. East Rider
    That is one fit player, and a great example indeed.
  17. East Rider
    There is not the slightest chance they could win this match if they tried. They are an utter, utter shambles of a club and any suggestion by them or anyone that they have the power to 'throw this match' is laughable. They will turn up as usual and get spanked, as usual. Mc Goldigger to get a celebrated hattrick, and stick the final knife in. You heard it hear first.

    Special indeed. Imagine supporting a club like Leeds. In your own special mind the club is crucial to the fabric that is British football. But in the mind of every single supporter of every other club in this land, it can rot in hell and disappear down the plug hole, never to return. Bog off Leeds! A once great club with an insufferable boring bunch of constant wafflers. Premiership here we come.

    Eh? Strange conclusion to draw FF

    My choice as well 100%

    Leitner did not have his best game last night that's for sure and he is one of the players who it will be interesting to watch how he adapts to the Premership. However, when he is on his game he controls this team and simply purrs along like a classic car. He was placed last night into a pressure cooker game having very little game time before this. He makes the simple passes and makes our play tick over. Love watching him play

    I seriously hope we have the promotion and title tied up by the time Leeds get to potaloo road. A thrashing of town by Leeds to cement their forlorn place in third and ultimately failure in the play offs is required. Sod both of them.
  23. East Rider
    Very true. You could have a banner just for him with his spectacular strikes and at some memorable locations.
  24. East Rider
    Throughout the game he was leading the protestations on the side line and who could blame him. I have a sneaky feeling he will still be angry come Monday and Stoke could be on the end of a back lash.

    Fleck was our talisman for us over a good period (first time round) and was a massive fans favourite, a big character and led the line well. Gossy quite rightly gets the plaudits but it was his spectacular goals that season which put him in the limelight as he was not a regular starter for us (if memory serves me well).
