    Nah, we will beat them at their place (brace from Jordan), Draw with Preston and lose to Leeds. We won''t be bottom as there are far worse teams in the league. QPR for one, were Seb is on trial!!!

    Painting the dressing room pink is not an issue...... telling people you have done it and why is plain stupid.

    [quote user="ron obvious"]What Fuzzar & PC said. This year has been exceptional because we''re suffering from the hangover of buying ''quality'' players (on big wages) for the PL who turned out not to be. YC mentions clubs that have all been around the top 6 last season & Wigan, who were in the PL from 2005-13, & says we''re in a better position. When we get promoted - which we will, in the next couple of years - we need to approach the PL in a more intelligent manner, even if it makes relegation likely. We have to think long term (by definition of sustainability). To stay in the PL would be difficult & would definitely necessitate selling players regularly. But we should make ourselves attractive to rising talent; imagine bringing on a new Maddison every couple of years! And wouldn''t it make you proud, to have a good, honest, self-sustaining club like that? Competing with Russian oligarchs & stinking rich Chinese owners? It would me.[/quote] Sorry but this is not Disney world. I had a conversation with a capital canary who said he would hate to be a Man City fan... and that is the sort of complete b#lls#it a lot of our fans come up with... who would not want our club at the top of the tree, buying the best players in the world... seemingly a section of our "support"... different world!

    Really stupid post Nutty... Expected better of you... My point is to stimulate debate and knock you out of your complacency

    So a player obviously not up to standard fails after the usual suspects belitte those with gaul to disagree with the "club line" moves to his standard... I wish him well ...seem like a decent lad.

    And I live in South London....speaking to Palace fans...they have moved head and shoulders above us because of.... investment....

    So all those lads saying give him a chance at Birmingham you must be furious with Farke / Webber... 2015/16, Norwich City have made a total profit of £56.9m on player transfers, the highest of the 92 football league clubs. Sunderland are second over the same period, with £33.6m profit (figures via Transfermarkt) Onwards and upwards...

    LOL! Seems someone has touched a nerve... Anyway, ticket sales are dropping off & if the "product" does not get better it will drop off a lot more as people see they do not have to buy a season ticket to watch games... Happened down the road & would be very complacent and silly to let it happen here... The competition is the cinema, bowling, other sports, shopping....

    [quote user="nutty nigel"]Very interesting thanks for posting King. We have 10,000 more but apparently the proper fans have stopped going to Carrow Road. Just leaving Delia cult members to support the team.[/quote] Dear Nutty, We are losing fans (there are 1000 season tickets available for the first time in 10 years?) and will continue to if the standard of football keeps declining. The atmosphere has changed because the demographic has changed. That is undeniable. All facts. Being complacent / dismissive really does not bode well for our future. Thanks, PS. Not arsed about them and given our current poor 1st team, I see little to gloat & laugh at.

    [quote user="hogesar"]Its not much of a problem. The most vocal whingers on social media rarely attend games let alone vocalise their views in real life.[/quote] Yep... been replaced by Delia cult members hence why no atmosphere anymore...

    [quote user="hogesar"]No heart is just something trotted out after a couple poor results without any evidence because its hard to prove either way, its lazy. Rhodes was good yesterday and scored. Pukki has impressed all season. Some of the rubbish spouted on here doesnt fill me with confidence for the continuation of the human race let alone our project at NCFC[/quote] You love a fact, let we give you some - 1) 29% win rate in the league this year 2) 8 goals conceded in 3 games 3) 1 point out of nine playing a team that just escapes relegation, a poor WBA (on the day they really were, most pundits said) and a team we beat last year 4) the team is weaker than last year as the replacements for Maddison, Gunn and Murphy are not better 5) Project at NCFC? Sell your best players buy cheap to fund a massive black hole in finances? Sorry to let you down but your beloved leader is not some great tactian and master owner....

    [quote user="TIL 1010"]Unfortunately it is creeping onto this forum more and more as the games go by and Facebook is a horrid place this morning and so is Twatter i am informed. This will continue into the ground if results and performances do not take a turn for the good before 5pm next saturday and history tells us that it ends in tears either for the manager or somebody in the boardroom.Steve Stone and Stuart Webber can be as forthright as they like to the fans but neither have experienced the vitriol of years gone by and Delia herself has been shielded from a Chase type wave of dissent. There are many younger fans who were not around in the nineties and early noughties but history does tend to repeat itself so let us all hope that PNE and Leeds are not the catalyst for a return to those days.[/quote] Unfortunately people are just bored... Ticket sales are and will continue to decline and more and more people will find something else to do... No fuss no passion just a slow steady decline with people saying how lucky we are to have Webber / Balls / Stone / Smith / Jones.......

    In the year 2018, in the league we have a 29% win rate... I am willing to give him time, as I do not think this decline is his fault but when do those "in the know" think we "moaners" should start to get worried? 2020? League one? Someone said that this clubs fans are unique... Yeah, I can think of no other set of supporters that would accept decline and still back the owners, with almost relgious devotion, as some of our fans do... Amazing what a pub appearance or a tv advert whilst wearing club colours can do to some folks... Thoroughly depressed

    [quote user="Herman"][quote user="nutty nigel"]Delia and Michael are more "football people" than the vast majority of owers in the top two divisions.[/quote][Y]How many years do people have to work in the football ''industry'' before they become ''football people''?[/quote] How many years do you have to owe a football club before you stop making the same mistakes over and over again?

    [quote user="Jim Smith"]The biggest problem at the club is the owners, all else flows from their delusion/selfish attitude. Farke has pros and cons and I can see some signs of progress in our attacking game but he has consistently been unable to get a back 4 to defend properly, particularly from crosses where our marking system appears flawed. In the championship that will undermine anything good you do because teams will punish it.[/quote] Don''t be silly Jim... We are the only business were the people who own it are not responsible at all... Get with the programme ...

    Great for Millwall because ...?...he was played in the correct position...go figure

    [quote user="Mike "][quote user="Branston Pickle"]The implication from, i''ll call them ''kneejerkers'', is certainly that they can''t see the difference, absolutely.[/quote] 9 away games zero wins...kneejerkers? Second season of the "asked for revolution" see any improvement yet? It is only 3 games but it''s the same old sh*t week in week out. Complete ability to balance attack with defense, complete inability to defend set pieces and a team that misses far too many easy chances... It''s getting really really dull![/quote] Inability not ability...doh!

    Sack Farke but the problems will remain... In for a long season as predicted

    Been to Bramell Lane on countless occasions including last year, and never had an issue...lets not blow it into something it is not. They have a small amount of trouble makers and I am sure that South Yorkshires finest will do all they can to stop any issues. Here''s to three points...
  25. Mike
    I know a few Blades fans and they are a decent sort, but they do seem to be getting an unwanted reputation not helped by that bellend Wilder. Hopefully our fans will be safe and looked after tday... Just as we look after their fans at Carrow Road.
