  1. Here's a spurious claim, with zero evidence to back it up.
  2. I thought Dylan Berry was likely to be next-in-line. Clearly I'm no expert! Ansen seems so bulky I just don't know. Is he good enough with the ball at his feet? Certainly Reyes (bottom of D3) and Barden (near the bottom of D4) will be seeing plenty of the ball this season.
  3. The last contract Mair signed was for one year (with a +1 option), the same deal that was offered to Sorensen. Does that really strike you as "the future"?!
  4. And the very next paragraph he suggests that if a particular need arose then the situation might change: “Singing about something that doesn’t fit 100 percent in the strategy, it has to be because it’s something we’re specifically missing in a position or as support for some players. But he's obviously interesting and one we're always keeping an eye on," Hoff Thorup told Tipsbladet in September [my emphasis] Since September we have learned that we will be without Barnes for an extended period.
  5. A vocal minority of fans drove the return of legalised standing at football. First it was to increase capacity, then it was to make tickets cheaper, and then it was because it made the atmosphere better. Clubs had no interest in doing it until they saw the easy PR win.
  6. https://www.canaries.co.uk/content/safe-standing-to-be-introduced-at-carrow-road ] If you look at Ferco's site there are clearly different systems being offered / fitted. https://www.fercoseating.com/news/sports/history-safe-standing-football CR looks nothing like the systems installed at Shrewsbury & Celtic, for example.
  7. Things have changed since you were a fans' rep. The best comparison I can make is that I expect you were ex-directory when you were still working.
  8. The reality is NCFC didn't really want 'safe standing' The club have tried to appease the vocal minority by installing rails but have also tried to do it as cheaply as possible. In these more safety-conscious times if someone had suggested a project that increased stand evacuation times (and cost money) the response would have been mostly negative.
  9. Why fret? I'll bet that if those names were to become public there would be much hand-wringing & posturing about dirty money, politics or religion and / or people with dirty contacts.
  10. Richard Ressler has already been publicly identified as the principle of 'Orchard', and so is irrelevant to this conversation about minority interests.
  11. Bearing in mind that Fumai, Wronki & Schlesinger are roughly the US-equivalents of Knapper, Anthony Richens & James Hill, I very much doubt it. The other investors in Attanassio's US-businesses are not publicly known, but as Richard Ressler's brother has an estimated worth of $11.3 billion then I would be amazed if hadn't chipped in. EDIT: Richard Ressler's brother's Brother in Law is also very, very wealthy; est worth $14 billion
  12. If you had read & understood the papers then you wouldn't have been ignorant of the identity of "Alfred (sic) Thomas Botton Jones"
  13. Tim Sherwood. Not many other former Canaries have captained title-winning sides.
  14. This information (in essence) was also in the documents circulated to shareholders in September last year. Quite incredible that people who claim to be familiar with numbers (let's call them 'accountants') didn't notice at the time. Maybe they didn't carefully read & process the materials that were sent out? Maybe they just aren't as smart & incisive as they think they are?
