    Question for you: Do you have anything to do with the Portuguese  language Norwich City podcast on spotify?

    Sorry , not  me I'm afraid. My Portuguese is shììț if I'm perfectly honest. Gabis English is much better than millions of UK citizens. Credit for him. HE also would have had the best of language teachers afforded to him NCFC.

    Think you'll find Webber was also behind the links to South America...not just the scouting of players.

    City announce new club partnership with Coritiba - Norwich City (canaries.co.uk)

    Yes , I do realise the parasite was down here in Brazil. Maybe , I could tell you more of how it was formed, since I live here. DO you believe  everthing you read in the press (really). Well done Mariela and the rest of the grass roots team. 🤣😉🙃🇧🇷

    I wonder how much credit Webber will get for forging such links with South America now?

    Well done to Mariela Nisotaki (head of emerging talent ) . Picked a good one Mariela. Well done. The unsung hero's . Keep up the good work and keep making your bosses look good. 😉✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️

    My point was signing Sara from Norwich. I made no mention or comment on any players being signed from Brazil. Do keep up. laddie 😊

    Thank you for the laddie  that makes me feel very young indeed , grandad

     

    I cannot see any PL club offering an unproven player (at that level) anymore.

    I'm trying to make sense of you old boy .

    Your only proven in the premier league once you play in it. Simples. Old Boyo!

    I said elsewhere, if we carry on the form we’ve been on since Bonfire Night (23 games) we will finish with 76 points. That should be enough for 6th. I think WBA would need their form to collapse for us to get 5th. But you never know. 

    Binners or Southampton in the play offs doesn’t scare me. 

    Nothing  scares Guy Fawkes 😉🙃

     I am not so sure he will be off - either way it will be his decision, not ours

    We have brought in players with potential. You cannot do that in the PL. Players need to be up to sp. eed on day one.

    And for those worried, he is signed to June 2026

    What level are you talking about, premier league level. Unproven  where here or Brazil. Just for the record.

    Premier League clubs have signed six players directly from Brazil this season. Chelsea signed Andrey Santos from Vasco de Gama and West Ham United brought in Luizao from Sao Paulo this winter. Willian joined Fulham from Corinthians in the summer, and Marquinhos moved from Sao Paulo to Arsenal. Newcastle United are also reportedly looking to sign Matheus Franca from Flamengo and Wolverhampton Wanderers have been pushing for his teammate Joao Gomes.

    And  it's a huge market. And for the mountaineering fans , many sides had their fingers in the pie long before Norwich. 

    It used to be brazilian players usually went yo Ukraine  then moved on.

    He's been unbelievable since moving to the right. He's too good for this division in any position he plays in but I really like him where he's playing right now. We were warned when he signed that he wasn't the Buendia replacement and that he was more of a deep lying midfielder but with his stats this season and how he's been performing on the right he's been every bit as good as Buendia was. Buendia was amazing but he also had the perfect striker for him infront of him, Sara just does it himself. If we don't go up and he gets sold I'd be really disappointed with anything less than 30m. 

    And that is the side (right), he played his best for Sao Paulo. He has been asked to play so many roles and you can see this is where he is at his VERY best. Great honest down to earth player , who could be integrated in any Premier side. Great command of the English language.  WELL done Gabi , I knew you would be a star . Personally at today's rate it must be heading to 40m. Imagine him laying off balls to haaland and then scoring ones like he did today. Surrounded with better players , the sky is the limit for him. 45m .No chance him being here next season ,sorry guys.

    Thats as maybe but it does beg the question of Knappers idea of a good player and it must affect the relationship between him and Wagner.He surely cant be happy that the player he thought could replace Idah cant get a look in

    That's as maybe  , me personally  this S.director , is just another made up job. Yes it fashionable , but a head of recruitment and a good recruitment  team . To many people give these guys to much praise and almost do make themselves bulletproof.  Bobby's job. They are signing on a player that a good scout has watched. WE don't seem to give credit to the correct people at times. FOR me The managers the man , sorry not cool enough head coach. Ffs.

    It’s going to be a mad few weeks … remember all those years ago when we sneaked in!  Didn’t Gazza hit the bar for Burnley in the last minute of their match ?

    Yes today wasn’t great for us, ( in our own match ) but as we see lots of twists and turns yet.  I’d never thought we would be in this position a few months back.

    strap in and enjoy the ride 

    All aboard !!!

    Exactly , a few months ago , according  to some we were dead and buried. Well here we are still standing. Today , everybody in my eyes apart  from Gunn , had stage fright or something.  It was awful. This happens now and then.

    Mark Bobbins lost at home to Cardiff.

    Tiny Keefy's dream manager lost 3-1 at Leeds.

    Preston lost to Birmingham.

    West Brom dropped 2 points at home to Watford.

    Dry your eyes together and get some rubber pants for the next few weeks. It's going to be a rollercoaster so buckle up...

    He was awful today. I think Wagner had a go at him, so he had no choice but to say what he did. Today, Kenny was everything that I said should mean he should not be a regular starter. Unless he starts as a LCB.

    Hope those who have names him POTS are still happy with their choice.

    Agree Shef, but I would add  he was as shììť as everybody else around him.  POTS , it certainly was a very potty day. I'm struggling to think of one good player on the park today. WE as a collective,  completely  bottled it. My honest opinion, why????????
