Out of interst, Nicholls, from which publication does this article come? The piece is not well written and it contains a number of spelling mistakes and grammatical errors. As for James himself, he will come back from this latest injury even stronger, I''m sure. 

[quote user="HuckerbysMullet"]Good god, does anyone care if we go higher or not? I''d finish the season now! I''m sure 95% of our fans would take 17th, apart from the fifa/football manager players on here who have no grip of real football anymore, who are also most likely the morison/whitbread baiters on here.[/quote]

[quote user="yoda"]We got out of jail today without a doubt . Lambert gambled but it didn''t pay off , he simply must keep Wes in the side he is key for us to play higher up the park without him wwe have no ideas and as for holty he deserves his place too .[/quote] Funny, I could have sworn that we won the match.

This season so far - Man U 3 Spurs 0 Man U 8 Arsenal 2 Man U 3 Chelsea 1 These were heavy defeats for established PL teams with huge budgets; we were in League 1 two seasons ago. We go to Old Trafford today and push last season''s Premier League winners and Champions League finalists close for 87 minutes. Fergie is relieved not to have been beaten. However, if you look on this message board this evening, you''ll still find people whinging about inexperienced strikers missing chances and moaning about this and that. Unbelievable.       

There are 7 or 8 players in tonight''s game who would be expected to step into the breach against the likes of Man U and Arsenal if necessary, yet they can''t perform against a League One side. The fact that we were hammered is deeply worrying - anyone saying otherwise is deluding themselves. 

[quote user="Balloo"]I`m guessing this has been sent all the way up the A140, a poor attempt to have a dig back & make himself feel better after their embarrassment [/quote] Being 4-0 down at home to MK Franchise with a full-strength team is pretty embarrassing, so we can''t really laugh too much...

Agree with most of the above. De Laet looked assured, but Barny looked ring-rusty and lost a surprising number of headers. Naughton needs to play on the right, looked much more comfortable there. Bennett looked OK, but didn''t seem to want to take on the full back when one-on-one. Morison worked hard off the ball but lacks that killer bit of pace; Jacko seemed quite threatening when he came on. I was impressed with Pilkington''s run-out, he could develop into one hell of a player, especially with the way he runs at players at speed. I think that our ability to convert the few goal-scoring chances that will probably come our way will decide if we stay up or not.

Hi BGH, PM me and I can give you some unbiased advice on your query.

[quote user="Cantiaci Canary"]Are we certain that we are the only Premiership club interested in him? Is it a dead cert he''s heading here do you think?[/quote] I thought that I''d missed something - where does it say that Norwich are signing him?

[quote user="Wings of a sparrow"]I told my mum that I''d opened a theatre. She said, ''Are you having me on?'' I said, ''Well I''ll give you an audition, but I''m not promising you anything.''[/quote] Good to see another Tim Vine fan on here!

You''re right, our players looked as if they all had hangovers! However, I think that if we had been playing for the points yesterday, we would have won 3 or 4-1. And you''re right, that was a fantastic atmosphere; there were points when the N&P and the City stand were outsinging the Barclay!

Breakfast in Cafe Rouge wirh a Stella, then more beer in the city after the game. Then home for an appointment with a glass of wine or two - feeling a bit sleepy this morning. The atmosphere yesterday, both at the game and around the city, was something special. Everybody of all ages partying without any trouble, as far as I''m aware - the whole city was buzzing!   

Wasn''t too impressed with him in the Pompey game - the way he lost Jackson for the goal was very poor defending. 

[quote user="can u sit down please"]Think , Huddersfield and Col Utd away last seasonThe boys delivered. 1p5wich and Leicester this season. This is the "new Norwich" we don''t buckle under pressure, we thrive on it. Have faith.[/quote] Swansea....?

[quote user="CCFC Fan"]Cardiff played QPR on Saturday afternoon so only had 48 hours to recover to play Preston who they started off playing brilliantly against but clearly tired towards the end and probably would have drawn the game if not for some heroic defending by all and especially Mark Hudson. Nevertheless a cracking 1-0 victory to relegate Preston. Derby also played on Saturday afternoon and only had 46 hours recovery time to play championship high flyers Norwich City and they fought very well against all the odds to try and secure themselves championship football next season while also doing Cardiff City a favour at the same time. But almost inevitably they were worn out by the crucial final quarter and were denied a point but as results went tier way they will be playing in the championship next season. Norwich played on Thursday night so had 87 hours recovery time, almost double what city and Derby had, and they then go on to benefit from higher energy and fitness levels after a longer period of recovery to beat Derby into the ground in the final quarter and win 3-2 with a 95th minute winner. Is this fair? Is that a level playing field at this crucial stage of the season?[/quote] What about the other 43 games this season? The table doesn''t lie.

[quote user="DAN-OTBC"]Fair play to the n&p today, they were singing and helping the atmosphere! [/quote] The N&P and the City Stand were superb today, they started chants and support when the Barclay had a rest - we should eb proud of all of the stands today, the support was epic! 

I think that the best thing about today was the fact that the whole club - the players, the management and every single Norwich supporter in the ground - was as one when that third goal went in. Billy Davies, the Forest manager, talked about this club''s togetherness after we beat them recently and today demonstared that beyond doubt. What a club we are - I''m so proud to be a Canary!  (I feel a big blub coming on - LOL!). 

The Norfolk Cafu has snuck up on the rails to become my Player of the Season; he''s been so reliable, weighed in with some crucial goals and has set up quite a few as well. If there''s a better right back in the Division, I''ve yet to see him.

I think that people are under-estimating how difficult the trip to Portsmouth will be. I think that they haven''t been beaten at home for a while and held a very good Swansea side to a goalless draw today. We will do really well to get a win there.

[quote user="Barnett is King"]Step up Chris Martin? Yes, this is a loss but I am not too worried. We now have Pacheco, Jackson, Holt, Lansbury, Hoolahan who all play up the pitch. Coventry and Derby at home I really don''t think we would have needed Vokes, but maybe at Pompy away. We shall see. [Y] [/quote] Oli Johnson is also back now, I think.

[quote user="s10_yellow"]From the online ticketing it looks like Coventry must literally just have confirmed they don''t want Block H, loads of seats have just become available in there.[/quote] That''s correct. Just got an extra ticket (as a Season Ticket holder) for my son by calling the ticket office, but had to get it in Jarrold Block J. There are some seats in H as well, but not brilliant views. 

[quote user="Cantiaci Canary"]shefcanary - I do usually err on the pessimistic side but with this situation I genuinely feel that people are getting ahead of themselves and setting themselves up for a huge disappointment! I just can''t believe we will do it! but pray we will! Wish I had your guts![/quote] I have to say that I agree with you on this. My heart says top two but, because of the tough run-in we''ve got, I think that we''ll have to settle for a Play Off place. However, I would love to be wrong!

He had his court appearance yesterday, so if he is absent, it might have something to do with that. 

I think you''re right, the sale of the Admiral was a risk. Sometimes these things work, sometimes they don''t. I think that this one might come back to haunt us. 

[quote user="Nexus_Canary"][quote user="Blurboy1980"]Sorry but not living in England so im asking...but aren''t there cameras everywhereeeeeeee in England. Wont this person be spotted or pointed out on cameras? [/quote] They have cameras all over the away section, Barcley and Snake Pit. Police will know exactly who he is and what he ate for dinner last night round about now, and thats even if none of the Barcley sold him out. And you can bet your life they were signing like song birds, good on em as well :) [/quote] Correct, Nexus; he''ll be in court befoe long, I''ve no doubt. I just hope the bench gives this idiot the punishment that his stupidity warrants.
