  1. [quote user="jaemae2"] I already did. If you think Hooper is anything above a Conference (even that is lofty for him) player, you may have an iq of 30 at most.[/quote]Oh yes. The same Hooper who banged them in at Championship level before you mean? Wow. Your point is so valid it makes my brain hurt. Clearly a scummer, and even by their standards you''re not the sharpest are you? I would say an IQ of 30 is lofty for you to be fair.
  2. [quote user="tom cavendish"]I think that he would make a good signing for Norwich.[/quote]He probably needs scouting by a proper scout first.
  3. [quote user="Surfer"]Seen as the ideal replacement for Hoolahan. Tries to play through every defender in sight, and if he does, turns around and tries to do it all over again ...[/quote]What exactly were you going for with this post?If you were aiming for humour, you missed. Badly.
  4. [quote user="Wiz"]I wouldn''t say no to Barton here tbh.[:|][/quote]And that, my friends, is truly the measure of the man.
  5. [quote user="militantcanary"]Neil Adams is obviously working on a basis of disepelling the nice Norwich image with his signing of Kyle '' out of control" Lafferty and an apparent bid for Troy " sorry I thought that head was a football" Deeney. Can i suggest the following for this season Harold Schumacher Vinny Jones Materazzi John Terry Rio Ferdinand Joey Barton Paul Gascoigne Maradonna Nicholas Anelka Marlon King Luis Jaws Saurez[/quote]An apparent bid for Deeney? Must have missed that one...
  6. [quote user="Private Frazer"][quote user="Canary Willo"]Got nothing to do with Norfolk developing talent, as Academy 1 status the radius is very wide, and don''t think previous ''rules'' stopped any club, including ours, taking players from other areas of the country.   FYI, Luke Shaw was born in Kinston Upon Thames and Adam Lallana St Albans.... [/quote]The point I was making was.  Even if we had the best academy in the world and the hour and a half rule applied (don''t know if it still does).  We still don''t produce top talent.  [/quote]90mins rule no longer applies.
  7. (Tried to post a pic but couldn''t make it work. His wife is Nicola Mimnagh.... google her.)
  8. If this is true then Lafferty is definitely gay. Not an issue if he is, but if he is cheating on his missus, there''s something not right.
  9. [quote user="Wiz"][quote user="Splendid Rush"]Wiz in u-turn shock Again.[/quote]   No U turn at all.   [/quote]No U turn, just a sad old man with too much time and a desperate need for attention since nobody bothers with the pr1ck in the real world
  10. [quote user="Wiz"]There goes promotion, prudence is alive and well at Carrow Road.  http://www.pinkun.com/norwich-city/norwich_city_player_of_the_season_robert_snodgrass_in_talks_over_hull_city_switch_1_3657497[/quote][quote user="Wiz"]£8 million?.............rip their bloody hands off![/quote] <<<8:57pm last night on the "Looks like Snoddy is off" thread.Fu(k off you boring, attention seeking fu(kwit.
  11. [quote user="Wiz"]£8 million?.............rip their bloody hands off![/quote]OMG. I agree with Wiz. Someone shoot me.On topic, I LOVE Snodgrass'' passion and heart. One of a very small number who actually looked like he gave a $h1t right until the bitter end last season. However, I''m not sold on him as a player, and as stated by others £8mill for a player with 12 months to go is a silly offer if true. We''d have no choice but to take that realistically. If the funds are spent wisely, that could be a hell of a boost to the kitty at this level!!
  12. We have the same debate every year.For what its worth, I''m pleased they''ve had a go at a design that''s a bit different. I like it.
  13. First we get premonitions of an exodus from Wiz, now we''re being warned to prepare for Genesis.Think all those zoom-outs of Christ the Redeemer have hypnotised people. Seems we got bible fever on the board...
  14. [quote user="Wiz"]Who cares?. when there''s raw sewage on the streets of Rio.[/quote]So Wiz, what exactly are you doing about the sewage problems in Rio? If, as I suspect, it''s sweet FA then don''t come on here bleating about it. Put up or shut up.
  15. We had it for at least 10 years mate. Last season we stopped playing music entirely, then it came back again, then i think it went away again (we didn''t score often enough for me to be certain!)It''s "Samba de Janiero" by Bellini.
  16. Massive coup for them.Got to say I''m a glass half full kinda guy over NA appointment, but I''m a bit jealous about this one.
  17. Jamar got 6 minutes at the end of the game, on as a sub for Simon Dawkins.No mention I can find of how he did but a great experience for one of our youngsters. Won''t do him any harm, that''s for sure!
  18. Good work. Only a full week behind everyone else clocking this. Keep at it Nostradamus.
  19. [quote user="Dave"][quote user="kick it off"][quote user="Dave"]No disrespect to Jamaica but if he is able to play for england isn''t he better to hold off for a few years after all he''s more likely to play I''m a World Cup. If after 5 years he''s not getting near the England squad then opt for Jamaica he would still be young[/quote]Maybe he''s not a mercenary and wants to play for the country of his birth, and the nation he feels he belongs to? The quoted comment above sums up everything wrong with international football.[/quote] Nothing mercenary about it you a player is eligible to play for more than 1 country why shouldnt he opt for the best to make the most out of a career that usually does not last more that 15-20 years[/quote]Depends on your definition of "making the most". Neither nation are likely to win a trophy so there''s no real glory or prestige to be gained from it. If he is any good he will be a national hero in Jamaica and one of the stars of their team. If he opts for England he will be hounded and harangued by the press at every turn. If the criteria he is using is based on who is likely to achieve more, as opposed to what he feels is right, then yes, that is mercenary. It''s a little bit arrogant to assume that given the choice, it should be a no-brainer. I can think of a million reasons why he wouldn''t want to play for either team but this policy of selecting as if it were a club team choice really irks me. It''s your f**king nationality, you should play for pride, nothing else. You should wear whichever shirt that would fill you with pride and emotion every time you pull it on, not "well, I might get a few more WC games out of it if I choose this country." It should not be a decision based on any logic or criteria, it should just be that you know what you feel is the right thing to do. If you are basing the choice on anything else, then it is mercenary at it''s core.As I said, it''s incredibly arrogant to adopt the "why would he choose anyone else" attitude.
  20. [quote user="mrs miggins"]Perfect 10[/quote]If this is you "feeling more positive", I''d hate to see you when you''re miserable![quote user="mrs miggins"]Monty, we''ve appointed Neil Adams - the person who didn''t win a game due to the way he set the team up (picked up 1 point). We''ve just got relegated and have decided ex player, ginger and manager of falkirk (scottish championship). We''ve appointed Joe Royle who''s almost dead, but likely to be on a bit to be a ''consultant'' to consult Neil Adams on how to run the first team, despite being a sh1t manager. It''s like we''ve though, ''actually no, we quite like it in the championship.'' Bl00dy useless. And thats goodnight from me as I can see a few people getting annoyed by my...lack of blind faith[/quote]

  22. Just for what it''s worth, Joe Royle isn''t being appointed in the Technical Director role renamed, that is a seperate  position and the club should be announcing soon."The Club plan to announce the new technical director shortly and are currently interviewing a number of candidates for the position of director of recruitment." - Official site.
  23. Jamar Loza has joined the full national team squad (as in not u21s or a youth team) for their upcoming fixture against Egypt, replacing injured players.Congrats Jamar!!http://www.jamaicaobserver.com/sport/Norwich-City-s-Loza-joins-Reggae-Boyz-band_16779035?
