Ramrod

Did the title of this thread come out of the first episode of Star Trek?

Delia is NOT a business person but she has been lucky to have been well marketed by business people. She is a woman of average intelligence, prone to wear her heart on her sleeve who got lucky on a local TV cooking slot in being recognised by housewives as being like them. To her credit her recipes work very well, she is a nice person., loyal to her friends, but a business brain she ain''t.

You seem personally quite stung by my comments WVM: struck a nerve? I do feel sorry for people of conviction like myself who are not getting what they deserve due to the so called ''real supporters'' continuing to nourish the Board (not the Club) with slavish loyalty. So, you''re a better Norwich fan than me, fine, I can live with that, give yourself a pat on the back. And you,ve got about as much chance of organising a credible and effective protest at a match as you have of organising courteous and sensible driving by the drivers of white vans. Football Clubs take on the character of their supporters who end up getting what they deserve. Just see how tolerant successful Clubs are of mediocrity and remember to this is your Club, mine and all the other supporters. As an entity it belongs to no one else and this has been forgotten by those currently entrusted to it''s management.

You do what you like Jas...but until the Club sees empty seats nothing will change.

Moroccan Magic? Have you been smoking it?

The replies do nothing for me....I am not talking about jumping ship at the first sign of trouble I am talking about tolerance up to a point and then drawing a line...this takes a certain amount of courage and conviction, something lacking in too many Norwich supporters and reflected in the character of our team. I will not lower myself to booing my own side or demonstrating in the street nor shouting or refusing to shout inanae chants. I just won''t go until the Club learns a lesson about respect and application.

I do like Springsteen but Ramrod is just a reflection of my thrusting style, giving it to you straight and all that!

And I own a chicken who has a sex complex.......she lays freud eggs!

Ditto, and you can be with your usual mates.

Actually SOB. You might be the one with the Oedipus complex.

Zipper you are a venerated poster so I will respect your view but beg to differ. I believe in short term pain for long term gain.

I like strong and independant women SOB.

Here they come again; looming over the horizon. Is it too late to prevent?

Or, alternatively, how about p!ss!ng in the wind.

EVERYONE who goes to games is keeping the faith! It isn''t about what you say it is about what you do!

Showing your soft underbelly here SOB....I suppose that''s what comes from having a dominant Mother.

This is a no brainer. It doesn''t need a new poll. What is it...Worthington''s last, final chance.....again. Stupid thread.

This Club has had unequivocal support for long enough. Am I a fair-weather supporter? Well, I don''t like being ripped off, paying through the nose and subjecting myself to things i don''t enjoy generally so if this is fair-weather then that must be my mantra. On the other hand being a supporter isn''t about being a masochistic eunuch and putting yourself through unbending and unquestioning pain. That is a form of oppression. Norwich City are seriously under-performing, they have more money than most and better players. Trouble is: not enough players, not a balance of players and a Costa Del Holiday Camp attitude fed by supporters who let them get away with it.

Note, Mrs. Rod''s absence of what Jonathan Ross last night referred to as ''Old Holborn'' it was spiders legs in my day.

Interesting little post there, Rider.

Some of these replies just reinforce for me the doormat mentality of Norwich supporters. Can you not see how the Club''s season ticket policy manipulates supporters and takes away their right to choose ''I renewed because I might not get a ticket again!'' If Norwich had 15,000 season ticket holders then it would really find out fans views, and quick. Instead, holders go out of obligation and create a long running sore of dire atmospheres, arguments amongst themselves and peaks and troughs sensibilities. Get off the merry go round everyone, can''t you see you are the real problem?

So, we''ll probably end up with Jamie ''school dinners'' Oliver as manager. Oh! Well, he can at least shout instructions at the players and water the pitch at the same time.

Norwich couldn''t win away in the 70''s either.
