    (about Malky):Very much this, I can''t see why people don''t want him.

    ---------------------------------

    The reason why many do not want him is because of the negative tactics he plays, which is fair enough. For me, it would be a smart move because he''ll get us up in the first season or the next and may keep you in the prem for the first season, yet what then, are we going to improve under him? I think that would be a question for when we get there. For me, I think its worth getting in Malky if Rosler for example won''t come here (not that i''m CEO or anything) for example.

    But Di Matteo, just the same question as Colin, Sherwood, Hoddle, - just why would you[/quote]
    Why are we so obsessed with the Prem? I would rather see us play entertaining footy in the Championship than the negative crap we''ve watched for last two years. Obviously ideally, we''d play attractive, entertaining footy in the Prem, but if it''s a choice of one or the other, I''ll have the football back please over the Prem.

    Bor, I know you''re only taking the pi$$ but some of us have relatives who died in the holocaust, I happen to have lost most of the paternal side of my family, and my Grandfather was imprisoned in Mauthausen concentration camp. A little bit more taste with your sardonic wit please.

    [quote user="Waveney Canary"]Can you imagine what it must be like being the WAG of the wolf. Going a whole year and only being able to convert one chance. She must be frustrated[/quote]
    Wow. Possibly the worst attempt at humour I''ve ever seen. 
    12 is your magic number Waveney. It''s either your age or your IQ

    [quote user="ian"]I think this is totally unnecessary to bring up

    People would understand who have lost someone. It''s bad enough situation without this.[/quote]
    This is a reference to DM''s comments about relegation being worse than death.
    I''m sure most are aware that DM''s Dad passed away around the time of the Spurs game, but that is not what the thread is directed towards (although in light of his bereavement, it''s possibly a little distasteful to have dragged these comments back out)

    Indeed. Bad decisions have cost the club this season.
    Definitely was avoidable. I am very much looking forward to playing the scum again though. I''m bored of the Prem now, I know it''s not a popular opinion, but honestly, how much has anyone enjoyed the last two years? The first season was a novelty, we had Lambert etc, definitely was a fun season. The last two have been dour, with few bright spots. I''m bored of losing all the time. At least the Championship is a bit more exciting!

    [quote user="my2ndteam"]Not a Pratt, Hughton created some good performances (Sunderland) and own games when he needed to. Sacking him with five games to go was stupid. We would be in a better position if he was still here[/quote]
    Keeping him long enough to sack him at this stage of the season was the error. We would be in a better position now if we''d sacked Hughton in October and stuck my cat in as manager.

    [quote user="mrs miggins"][quote user="my2ndteam"]Would have been safe with Hughton[/quote]

    I''m afraid you can''t factually say that. What you CAN say however is;

    by looking logically at Chris Hughton''s record and form for Norwich, you can say logically that he would have done a better job than Adams is doing at the moment. However, because its not fact, some (many on here i''m sure) will dispute it.[/quote]
    You can''t LOGICALLY say Hughton would have done a better job. Hughton is a poor, poor manager and it''s his fault we''re even in this predicament. He had 33 games and did not pick up enough points against opponents that were vastly weaker than the last couple we have played. Not only that, even when we won, we still played absolute $hit, negative boll**ks for the most part.
    Today was exactly like a Hughton performance, we capitulated against the big teams away from home almost every time we faced them and got thrashed under him.
    I would rather go down without picking up another point, and get someone else in next season than have stayed up and had to endure another season of his $hit. He actually ruined Norwich for me this season, the games were a chore that I hated myself for choosing to watch every week, rather than something to look forward to.

    [quote user="kick it off"]It has nothing whatsoever to do with ''Rastas''.
    The term originated in the USA.
    If you can''t be funny, at least be factually accurate!
    [/quote]
    Obviously I meant 4/20 is nothing to do with Rastas, Marijuana is well documented as being part of Rastafarian culture.
    I hasten to add, if they were feeling the after effects of 4/20 today, 6 days later, then they either need their calendars recalibrating or they had one huge sesh.

    [quote user="Fraz"]I blame him, he criticised the previous chef exc appointment of Bryan Gunn, has no done for me the same thing in appointing Adams, both had no managerial experience, and were the cheapest option availble.[/quote]
    To be fair, who exactly do you think was begging to take the job on in the position we were in? Your point is right, but your logic is wrong. He hasn''t appointed Adams through choice for the cheap option (ridiculous comment given how much Prem football is worth), he has appointed Adams because he f**ked up massively and kept Hughton for a year too long.

    [quote user="my2ndteam"]This performance has nothing to do with Hughton. What are you talking about![/quote]
    Read the bit I quoted maybe? 
    That''s normally why people quote things.
    If you still can''t work it out, here''s the hint: "Adams will send us down".
    F**king hell, it''s not difficult.

    [quote user="alartz"]Yep.

    Redmond, Fer, RvW all crud

    Adams will send us down[/quote]
    Hughton did that months ago. When we go down, Adams doesn''t need to accept an ounce of responsibility. Not many people would have the balls to take on the poisoned chalice of these last 5 games considering the position we were in.

    [quote user="Phillip J Fry"]We won''t know the formation until the players line-up on the pitch. It could be a diamond, but I think (or hope) that we''ve gone for the 4-2-3-1 that worked so well against Liverpool.
    [/quote]
    Look at the semi-colons in the club tweet - they denote the formation usually.

    First time I''ve been really worried under Adams. 
    Not sure why he is putting the same team out again (albeit RvW instead of Hooper).
    I could understand if the formation was different, but if we are seriously putting Redmond up front again and playing the diamond, I''m going to find it difficult to put a positive spin on that.

    [quote user="jas the barclay king"]hadn''t realised a 2nd thread had been posted...

    Glad to hear everyones happy to accept Mr Norwich and narrow defeats though....[/quote]

    How can you not realise when you started it? Odd.
    I didn''t realise Adams was the only alternative to Moyes, thanks for clearing that up.

    I would take Whittaker out and move Cafu back to RB. Put R. Bennett or Yobo (if he''s back to fitness) in at CB.
    I''d probably have RvW in front of Hooper, but only just. 
    I would start with Johnson, but with a view to bringing Tettey on for last 30mins or so. Johnno gives us a bit of bite and Utd won''t fancy it if we get in their faces from the word go. Tettey doesn''t shirk his defensive duties, but he doesn''t offer the same level of grit that Johnson does.
