kick it off

[quote user="Brendo "][quote user="Adam NCFC"][quote user="Brendo "][quote user="When Saturday Comes"]Brendan, you really are a prat. Not sure what thev guy is complaining about - this sort of thing happens every Saturday afternoon, at every game, at every level. As a 16 year old fan of Franchise FC, he probably doesn''t have much experience of going away and should probably get used to hearing such ''abuse'' if he wishes to continue going to away games. [/quote]Well played mate. I''m a prat for merely suggesting what he could have thought as a racist chant. The reason I say I don''t think we sung it against Stockport? But did against MK Dons who had a black goalie. I never said I thought it was racist, or did I criticise the chant, or Norwich fans. So, please tell me why you think I''m a prat. [/quote]On the odd time that you actually go to a game, where do you sit? I''m in The Barclay and we do that to EVERY goalkeeper, EVERY game. State opinions all you want, but when your opinions make you look that stupid, you should just give up. [/quote]Please show me where I said that my opinion was that it was racist. I don''t think that, but can you not see how it could have been misconstrued? Maybe MK Dons fans aren''t used to hearing such songs, and therefore think it was racist. Maybe they misheard the lyrics, and thought we sang something like "you look like sh**". I am sorry, but I was just trying to make a suggestion by backing up Norwich in showing that there was infact no racist chanting. Douche cadet. [/quote] Ps Brendo - WTF are you even talking about? That "chant" is heard at every single football ground around the country, its not unique to us, therefore i dont understand how he could have misheard or not be used to hearing such chants as he says on the board that he goes to quite a few games. Plus, HE NEVER SAID ANYTHING ABOUT A RACIST CHANT IN THE FIRST F**KING PLACE.

[quote user="norfolkbroadslim"]Come on then, how many complained so fervently about the refs when we were winning games easily? Show me the posts and prove me wrong. The refs must have been excellent, faultless then. It must just be coincidence that when we have started to struggle everyone is blaming the refs.[:^)] [/quote] Of course no-one complained. The refs obviously weren''t cheating us out of points. When we have played against 12 men for 2 of our last 3 games of course people will complain. Its not rocket science really. If refs were apalling but in our favour then we probably wouldn''t complain. They haven''t been in our favour tho, and denying us the penalty yesterday and not sending an MK player off til 89, about an hour after the first challenge of several that deserved red has cost us the game. No two ways about it, a competent ref and we win the game. Simple as. When refs are influencing the outcome of games and costing us points, do you not think it''s natural to complain? Yeah we could have won anyway yesterday, nobody is saying it is all the refs fault, we are saying we shouldnt have to be playing against a team of thugs and a bias ref who cost us the game with apalling decisions. Whether we could have won it despite the refs cheating is secondary, because we shouldnt have to overcome the ref and MK, it should be a fair playing field.

For god''s sake children - there was no racist chanting, and if u actually read what franchise kid wrote - he never even said there was racist chants, he said the people who confronted him after the game also made some racist comments about one of their players....

Were you at the game yesterday?!?! If it were not for the Ref''s abysmal performance we WOULD have won by several goals...hence the complaints. His repeated failure to use the advantage rule, denying us a stonewall penalty, the fact that if he had any control on the game at all - MK would have had ten men for most of the game... None of this was a factor in us not winning then? Obviously not. Im just one of the thousands ''looking for something to complain about''....or maybe the ref was absolutely f**king useless and needs to be complained about as he cost us the game....

Im pretty sure the worst ever debut (not for City though) must have been Jonathan Woodgate for Real Madrid... As far as I remember it, he got two own goals and a red card that day!!!! Thats pretty much as bad as it gets surely....unless of course your name happens to be Michael Theoklitis!!!

[quote user="Pboro_Canary"]Goals just been on Sky, couple of neat finishes from Oli (especially the bullet header second).[/quote]Yeah, I just caught that too, the second was absolutely superb, great run to the near post to lose his marker and bullet header. good stuff. e i, e i, e i o..... [Y]

[quote user="Matt"]how about any radio streaming??[/quote]no-one ever streams radio norfolk, lost cause mate. CW is the only way if your outside norfolk.

2-1 get in!!

[quote user="Blurboy1980"]If I was Jamie I would not leave either this is his last big payday and he has a family so take it whilst he can. We all would do the same if we were in his boots. from 8k a week to maybe 1k-2 after.[/quote]His missus is stunning too!

[quote user="missing in action"]mike milligan - everybody''s best materusty is very dumb,i cant help but slip into a coma when listening to doherty talk...[/quote]Im not certain on this but I seem to remember Rusty being incredibly articulate and well spoken - dumb seems a bit odd?

[quote user="Mello Yello"]     .......Nah, nothing like him.[/quote]brilliant mello, made me giggle [Y]

Im almost certain it would be Flecky. absolute legend with a gret sense of humour.

Oh yeah and I got hit in the head with a coin at Molineux when I was about 7 - when they had the home fans in a tier above the away support - morons.

The only footy violence I have ever seen in my 20 years following the city was at Coventry a few years ago. After the game, one Coventry fan just walked up to another Cov fan and punched him in the face and then ran off. I think generally with footy these days if you arent looking for trouble you won''t find it. I have however had verbal abuse - after Stoke away walking back to the train station a guy in a Stoke shirt - walking TOWARDS the ground called me a c**t in front of his kid who cant have been older than 5, and literally 2minutes later a girl of around 14/15 called me a "farmer w**ker" and sprinted into a shop....neither of them had been to the game. Pathetic.

[quote user="Leeds Spammer"][quote user="I am a Banana"]we have our best crowds, when there is a very small away following [;)][/quote]   You''ll find at Elland road, there are very rarely any empty away seats [8-)] Guess we''re just easily accessible? [/quote]Certainly a lot easier than norwich, and closer to most teams i hasten to add.

[quote user="Matthias son of Deuteronomy of Gath"]A goal scoring full back. Excellent.[/quote]Bit soon for that I think! Would be fantastic if he contributes half as much to the club as Bowen did. Rose''s career stats point to an average of about 3 a season (seemingly free kicks usually) - around 20 goals in 300 odd apps = around a goal every 15games.

[quote user="Nexus_Canary"][quote user="kick it off"][quote user="Big Bad John"]We scarcely deserved anything from this, let alone a win.I know this won''t be met with a round of applause, and with 3 wins in row since his appointment i certainly can see why it won''t, but as far as the details are concerned i''m far from confident with Doc holding the armband.If i''m honest it''s about as belated i''ve felt after a win so far this season, while of course staying confident as far as the current campaign is concerned.[/quote]Its obviously not a permanent fixture though - only while Holt is out.[/quote]figured that was a no brainer ? obviously not though !Its a hard choice though if not Doc... who else ?Personally I''d have taken Rusty or Laps.... but that said.... im not Paul Lambert and Lambo obviously knows what hes up to !!Delighted Cody got a goal as predicted !Just doesnt put a foot wrong that lad !! Cult hero right there !![/quote]So did I but the context of the original post i quoted made it sound like Doc had been permanently given the armband. Im not sure who I would have given captaincy to if not Docs, Rusty is the only viable option that springs to mind. Cody is brilliant for us and has popped up with some important goals, cerainly one of my heroes!

I think everything to be said, has been said on here, so this is just me saying i hope you have a fantastic day, enjoy it mate, Norwich is a great city and you certainly wont find trouble unless you go looking for it. The people as a whole are amongst the friendliest in the country in my opinion.Anyways, have a good one and safe journey. [Y]

[quote user="can u sit down please"]Achieved my dream of playing at FCR.NOw struggling with playing and afternoons at FCR.....Im 27. Keep playing or not?? Oooo decisions![/quote]Keep playing mate, limited timespan on footballing career, lifetime of watching the mighty yellows!

[quote user="kick it off"]All I have to contribute is that, if Gunn had done more to keep Lupoli, and started him every game, we probably wuldnt be in this league in my opinion. Watching City against Coventry opening day of the season was amazing, despite losing, we played like Brazil, Lupoli and Hooly had an instant understanding and were backheeling it to each other and all sorts![/quote]Obviously last season, not this one.

Wiggins has joined Bournemouth on a month''s loan, their transfer embargo was lifted temporarily and they were allowed by FA to sign one player, and its Rhoys on loan.Source: http://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/sport/4878970.Cherries_exclusive__Wiggins_back_on_loan/Only a local paper but have quotes from manager etc, reliable 100% in my opinion.

Slight rethink on that after seeing highlights, Doc''s great header off the line ups his rating, and oli''s lob was off the 6 yard box, not the line.
