[quote user="NCFC_Thain"]Sorry I think you have the wrong place. We speak English here. [/quote]   Mwa ha ha ha........... Quality!!

Forgive me if this is covered in another thread......   What confuses me about the "Iversen" business, if indeed it is he who is the one........ Several posters have had contact with"unnamed sources" who have stated that "the fans will be impressed / over joyed when they realise the quality of the name we are to sign" Do they really think we''ll all be bowled over by (with all due respect) a 31/32 yo plying his trade in not the strongest league in Europe, who didn''t exactly set the English league alight when he was considerably younger!! Do they really think, just because he once played for Spurs, we''ll all be delighted?? Seems they seriously over estimate the esteem he is held in. Don''t get me wrong, he may (if it is him) turn out to be an inspired signing, but hardly one to get us all drooling (ala Hucks & Crouch) Needed to get that off my chest!!

[quote user="FozzyFan"] [quote user="Rocky Rocastle"]Bottom line is Iversen is not the guy to get us into the playoffs. He is not a 20 goal a season player and for me I have much more faith in Roeder so don''t expect him to waste time and money on Iversen! Resiak on the other hand would be welcome....[/quote] what he said. RASIAK PLEASE [/quote] My sentiments exactly.....

[quote user="jas the barclay king"][quote user="kick it off"][quote user="rucker"] did anybody else see it all kick off in tescos carpark after the game yesterday, 20 or so chavy little coventry?   [/quote] Didn''t see it yesterday but last year saw a Cov fan walk up to another Cov fan, smack him in the face and walk off right outside the ground. [/quote] well it is the midlands.. their brains are in their balls jas :) [/quote]   STEADY.......we''re not all like that you know..!! Some of us in the Midlands have the good sense to support God''s own team!!

...and is a greedy t**t, looking for a stepping stone (release clause anyone?), if you read between the lines of Gary Johnson''s comments!! Chris Coleman is no mug, I think the guy would be trouble.....1.5m....no way

Imagine opponents of the ''quality'' of Coventry etc... and it fills you with hope!!

Top Man.....

If  I was at home I would be glued to the TV, However, I''m on holiday, camping, Picking up someone elses weak wifi signal....Mwa ha ha ha...... I''m lucky to get this website I think...!!!!

Cheers for the update, Other thread has a lot of arguments about who to blame for their goals but doesn''t actually quote the score for us who don''t have access to the match..... Much appreciated  

Lived in a little town just north of birmingham all my life, Dad is a WBA fan, who tried to get me to follow his faith.... He took me to WBA vs Norwich (1976), seats in the main stand (£4 each I think!!), and he then proceeded to dance around as West Brom won 2-0..!! Being the awkward child that I was, I had taken to this team in yellow, with Phil Boyer up front, Forbes at the back & the great KK in goal. So went home & asked for a Norwich City sports bag, which in those days can''t have been that easy to get hold of (In the Midlands!!). This duly arrived & was my pride & joy, until the Villa fans at school ripped it of my shoulder & played footy with it on the playground!! Needless to say, that hardened me to my faith which I''m proud to say I''ve had ever since. Even got my brother to go to UEA so I could have free digs (88-91) & am in the process of training a 7 & a 9 year old to keep the faith!!

We8wba, I think the one team you missed who are a cert for the top 6 is Stoke. They will bully their way in......so that leaves 1 place up for grabs..and if Palace keep up their form they''re in. As for the other possibles, well they are just that...but Wolves..???? don''t make me laugh, you need to look over your shoulder at the other end of the table my ''friend'' I live within 20 miles of Yam Yam land (The black country for my Norfolk brothers!), I read yhe Express & Star, I know that you are in the S**te & your fan base knows it as well!!  

£1 million fee plus £20k a week for 3 years (Prem contract he has now remember!) So thats £4 million, plus sign on......... It ain''t all about the fee!

I, like everyone, have been watching the ups & downs of the "Marshall saga" which I''m sure will be sorted in due course. However I''m suprised nobody has mentioned the possibility of another one of our long term targets being included in some sort of package deal. I''m talking of course about Derek Riordan. Celtic seem to be hoovering up quite a few additional strikers during this close season, none of which would be comforting to DR as he desperately strives for a regular 1st team slot. Our focus seems to be on very expesive league one strikers, maybe this is a smoke screen & we are still sniffing around Celtic & DR ??? I certainly hope so !!!

He has my support. I''m staggered at the hysterical reaction to the poor start to the season. I pity clubs who create turmoil by sacking thier managers in response to fickle fans with short memories, no bottle & no patience. Listen to the views on this MB & any outsider would pity us!! This is a wake up call to all those going around thinking this was going to be easy! Stop whinging & create an atmosphere where our players can feel confident to try things, not an atmosphere where they daren''t incase of getting boo''d or heckled!!

When you say now are you talking about July 13th now or this transfer window till Aug 31st ??? I''m not suggesting for a minute that we leave it till the january window!! But there is at least 3 weeks till start of the season & 6 till this window closes. Patience my fellow believer! (From a Midland Canary!)

I''ve had to break my silence & respond to the rampant hysteria that seems to be rife on this & the transfer talk board!! Some people seem to want NW to rush out & sign anyone as long as they''ve got two legs!! They would be free or cheap at best, I for one would rather trust NW to get the job done to NCFC''s best advantage. Can anyone name the real ''Core'' players we have lost since last year.... of all the people who have gone, I haven''t disagreed with any of the deals. All where fringe players at best. Look how much extra quality & experience we''ve got than this time two seasons ago. Looking at the rest of the CC I can''t see anyone with our attacking force, and thats crucial in this league. I have tried to look for reasons for us to struggle but I just can''t find them. I would worry far more if I was a Southampton (Phillips gone, Crouch & Niemi going, Redknapp retired) or Palace (One man band & penalty getter Johnson wants out) fan. The Binners have lost most of their core players & Wolves have too much self doubt ever to be truly successful!! The reality of replacing the players who have left is that we have to wait for the Prem clubs need to move first. Reason 1 - It could free up funds if Francis or Green do go, wouldn''t want to get a load more Free''s signed up by start of July, only to find we have £3-5m quid in the bank & no squad places left by the beginning of August! Reason 2 - Players are not willing to commit to a CCC until all their Prem options are closed. The Prem clubs leave it late to save on wages so we have to wait longer, it ain''t fair but hats life! We''ve come a long way in the last couple of seasons, lets not resort to knee jerk reactions because we can''t field 22 players for a meaningless friendly. Sorry to go on but just Keep calm, Keep the faith & trust in NW...we''re going to win this division by at least 9 points!!
