    That’s the trouble with our fan base , we think we are streets ahead of them , I am led to believe it is probably the other way round , surliness football from a coach who has learnt his trade at M Utd under Marinho and the likes , same with Carrick and look how he is doing …….. interesting times ahead I feel .

    Utter, utter drivel.

    Honestly no idea why he thought it was a good plan to approach the support after that. It looks like he just wants to talk, but Christ on a bike, after the dismal season we have just endured did he really thing that City the fans who were left at the end will want to chat about what might have been?

    The guys seems a deluded fool if that was his intention. It looks like the police took the sensible option and ushered him away form them.

    No wonder you're so grumpy. You tapped out at the wrong time. We all had an absolute blast watching Farke's sides tear apart the entire division whilst you wallowed in self pity 🙂

     

    Correct. The bald one certainly snuck out at the wrong moment.

    However, that we have not built on our superb chances when momentum and support was there in abundance, to establish or at least remain in the PL for anything other than a fleeting and unforgettable moment each time is simply criminal.   I find it difficult to look too far past that.

    Unbelievably if we’d managed to win that horrendous game of football, we would have gone 6th.

    Cov’s keeper scored a last min equaliser….I was shouting at Gunn to get that pink shirt in the box for the last corner! 


     

    Just what I was thinking. An absolutely unbelievably poor season as far as consistency goes, yet we could have been in the top six this evening.

    Bizarre

    If you'd planted a tree every day since they last beat us global warming would be over... (That might not be a fact)

    Might not be a fact, but probably close though.

    I honestly couldn't give a monkeys if they are promoted and we do play them next season. In fact if we do it will be a couple of highlights in the season for me. What I do know is that there will be a clamour for tickets to go to portaloo road and we will probably hammer them....................again. 

    And if they manage to scrape a result against us after so long, it might make the fixtures competitive again.

    Bring them on

    Didn't Gunny's kick result in a corner for us within a few seconds?

    It resulted in an immediate throw in for us at their end near the corner I thought, followed by a corner to us I think. It is seriously frustrating taking a free kick on the half way line and it eventually going back to our keeper for a pressured lob forward, when a set piece ball into the box could have been an option from that free kick, especially when requiring a goal.

    However, the booing at the end was unwarranted in my opinion and it often seems those booing the loudest are the quietest when support is needed during the game. 

    Strange days

    Think realistically we would need another 10 points before we meet West Brom to stand any chance.

    I'd be very surprised (and pleased) if we achieve that.  

    We would also have to hope that the 3 teams just below us, who are all performing better than us in the last 5-6 games, have a dip. We live in hope.

    Luton, they'll need to find 30,000 extra fans. And will Millwall misbehave again if they meet Luton. Boro, if they don't overhaul the blunts. Blackburn ? Can't say I would want Millwall. Their club doesn't deserve Wembley, and the PL doesn't want them.

    Luton are a very well supported team with a ton of fans. There ground is far too small, but rest assured they have a large supporter base.

    I find it amusing that where ever I go in the world it seems you will often find a fellow canary or a Luton fan.

    Indeed. This nonsense about the Prem or better sides applies to all our players. That's why we've been relegated so miserably twice. It's just a smokescreen to excuse the scapegoating.

    Correct and bang on point. There may be the odd exception with one or two of our team, but generally they have collectively fallen short, not just a single player.

    It's easy to follow the herd and give stick to the current appointed scapegoat, keeps you popular I suppose. Can't stand it myself

    The fact there are supporters who actively try to keep the atmosphere going is great news. 

    Groups like city elite et al are good for the club and from my seat in the morgue Riverend, it is noticeable that they start and maintain most of the chanting/singing now. Even the Snakepit has eased off and they use to be equal to the Barclay (in my opinion)

    I haven't sat close to the drum, but then again if you go into that area you should know what you're getting

    Dowell has been massively underrated by Norwich fans. He is a class player with great vision. He was an unfortunate victim of the 4-3-3 because he's simply not a winger.

    My feelings exactly and I am enjoying his performances now he is being given the licence to play in a prefered position. 

    More to come I feel
