Ideal opportunity for all those thousands (allegedly) of young fans who normally don't get the chance to go to CR.

Shots Fired Prior To AGM.
NewNestCarrow replied to TIL 1010's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
There's a certain tin-eared irony in Lakey writing an OpEd about the club being defensive when he himself has Blocked more than one twitter user. -
New Board Director Confirmed - Mark Attanasio
NewNestCarrow replied to hogesar's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Wouldn't it be logical for MA to have bought these other shares at the same time as the main C Pref purchase? And if so, then wouldn't those purchases have shown up on the most recent Confirmation Statement? (dated 22.10.2022) -
Norwich at the World Cup

Fleck started v Sweden (subbed on 84) and was introduced as a sub vs Brazil. Gunny was in the WC squad but didn't play.. -
The magic of the FA Cup.
NewNestCarrow replied to A Load of Squit's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
He is right but has worded it poorly. For all Cup matches expenses are deducted before distribution of net profit. Gatemen, medical, police, floodlighting & travel / accomm for visiting team are all standard expenses that eat into any profit.. Ten years ago the FAC tie between Norwich & Orient saw £191,000 gates receipts cut by roughly £40k in expenses & pool payment, leaving approx £150k to split between clubs -
Blah blah blah

Logic would suggest so (25%, Sat ko). No doubt there are folk South of the Border who tell tales of the day they took 15/20/25 thousand to Naarich for the Texaco Cup final, but The Archive doesn't give a figure. The biggest non-neutral City following would appear to be from the 1959 Cup Run, with an allocation of 16,900 for the Spurs tie. Other notables include 14,000 for the Sheff U match in 1959 and 14,250 for another FAC tie at Bramall Lane, in 1962..

The FA rules gave visiting clubs up to 25% of the crowd, if they wanted it. So, in this instance, Leicester had 11,000 tickets (a few seats in the Main Stand, but vast majority were 'ground' admission) Credit to 'The Archive' for this snippet.

I think this is pretty obvious, even if you don't drill down into the lads' places-of-birth! We also have to remember that in 130 years Norfolk has only produced just SEVEN of the 1,271 England cap-winners

The NCFC & the Foreign Office mystery
NewNestCarrow replied to A Load of Squit's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
That story is from 2018. The expenditure in question is from the last year. -

New Board Director Confirmed - Mark Attanasio
NewNestCarrow replied to hogesar's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
It really isn't. In 2007/08 a £2.5m loan was approx 13% of NCFC income (and 95% of the club's TV income) This season a £15m loan will be approx 20% of NCFC income, and just 30% of TV income. Obviously these figures shrink (12% overall & 14% of TV income) if promoted. And if, after seven years, NCFC are without any PL cash then Attanasio's input will clearly have done us no good! -

NewNestCarrow replied to hogesar's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
We have already been through this with the Turners, so suspect the current Board think they are adequately prepared. In any case, I would hope that the legal agreement ensures the safety of NCFC (any loan repayment being under manageable terms) -

So you didn't check to see what changes were being proposed? With a (potential) holding of £100k wouldn't that have been a good idea? -

You use the word "errata". Where does this word appear on the original letter (I assume you mean the Notice of General Meeting?) -
New Board Director Confirmed - Mark Attanasio
NewNestCarrow replied to hogesar's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
What's actually a bit naughty is propagating an untruth. Resolution 3 was to adopt the new Articles of Association, "to the exclusion of the Company's existing articles..." So clearly changes were being made to the Articles. While it may have been preferable for the club to have produced a 'What is changing' summary (like banks do for retail customers) it is absolutely not true that the 'director without shares' change was somehow smuggled in without notification. -
My error. Now corrected.

https://www.wolves.co.uk/news/club/20220830-sammy-chung-1932-2022/ 48 City appearances, scoring nine goals. Evening Star tweeted this news two hours ago, yet the Norwich arm of Archant stays silent.

I have been sitting in the Lower Barclay for 20 years, and even before this season the floodlilghts were so strong (and at such an angle) that I sometimes wore a cap to night games, to offset the dazzzle. I am quite sure the club's view will be that the new lights are required for broadcast (and goalline technology)

The incident 100% happened. David Sadler, 24 years old of Caister, was the victim. I believe that a collection for his family was taken at a subsequent home match. The incident happened on the Norwich > Kings Cross line with the body being discovered at Finsbury Pk

Ironic that you are posting this on an Archant messageboard, as they have put the PinkUn's matchday coverage behind a paywall too. -
Birmingham Cup Tickets
NewNestCarrow replied to The Great Drinkell's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
The club have released some interesting details about the Birmingham cup match: "Fans will also be given the opportunity to purchase tickets in a designated singing section. Please note that fans in this area will be standing." Does this mean that rail seats have been installed over the summer? Or are there new light-touch ground regs that allow standing in seated areas? -
Kensall made it pretty clear that complaints he received about the Rotherham & Villa games that season were influential in monetising the Away ticketing process. This - and other Membership changes - were unpopular with the vast majority and will ensure that thousands of City fans now have to pay more to follow their team. Thanks.
