  1. Last night they only got 15000 for their home game against Palace, yet they have every chance of automatic promotion. A disgrace in my opinion
  2. He said on Canaries world he wants to see the team do well because when he finishes playing he is going to watch! Quality- one of us!
  3. [quote user="ricardo"] How easily they satisfy us. Another transfer window passes with no money spent. In fact by my calculations we''ve made another half million profit. That makes about £3 million for this financial year. Put Doncaster in charge of Northern Rock I say. They will soon be out of trouble. Norwich City F.C. Test bed and shop window for clubs with real ambition. [/quote] But their desks are about as mobile as the Ipswich back four!
  4. [quote user="Web Team - Pete"]I did, but not because I was expecting any signings, I was having trouble figuring out the surround sound system on my TV. All you heard on SSN for the last two hours was ''Defoe to Portsmouth if Benjani goes to Man City.'' All very dull in the end.[/quote] But he did go and Benjani didn''t, so how will this change our situation with Ched Evans? Sadly he may be recalled at some stage or is the loan irreversable as it had been changed to the end of the season?
  5. [quote user="Kathy"] I like this one best! http://stats.football365.com/dom/ENG/D1/aform.html [/quote] Thanks for that Kathy- I took enormous pleasure sending it to an Ipswich supporting friend, who perhaps not surprisingly, has not replied yet. Perhaps his tears had fused the keyboard!
  6. They have 3 suspended for the game http://www.lep.co.uk/sport/Suspended-trio-to-miss-Norwich.3727505.jp shame isn,t it!
  7. The have just sold Neil Alexander to Rangers, according to Five live. Now I thought they had £12 million to spend on new players, not heard a lot about people going there. Be a shame if they start sliding down the league!
  8. Hate to disagree folks, but I thought he looked quick and a threat when he played against us. Considering he had not made many appearances and therefore was probably not match fit I would think he is worth a go.
  9. I put this on the transfer page http://www.thestar.com/Sports/article/298273 it looks unlikely to me
  10. Try this http://www.thestar.com/Sports/article/298273 looks unlikely to me
  11. Read this article from an Ipswich fan. http://www.rivals.net/news/pgarticle.aspx?artid=2483_3076303 Hate to say it but I was amused!
  12. Good luck to you all down there, I had a long chat with a Bury fan on the train to Norwich for our game and we walked to the ground together, football as it should be, good luck>
  13. Bring ''em on. Bit of banter, bit like the terraces, well an armchair version.
  14. I shall be going I think it will be ground number 77 fro me.
  15. [quote user="Tumbleweed"] I''m not a numbers person, but if you knocked down the City Stand and built a (say) 10,000 seat stand instead at a cost of (say) £10m, that would give you an extra 6000 seats or so. At £400 per season ticket that''s £2.4m per year or slightly more if all the tickets are sold at £20 each on a casual basis. Add in interest to the loan of £10m and the stand would have paid for itself in 5 years- if you take a longer term loan your additional revenue should easily exceed the interest and capital cost. When you then add in the extra revenue on programmes, drinks, food and general merchandise from an extra potential 6000 people doesn''t that make it a no-brainer? Or am I missing something in this simplistic analysis................ [/quote] Tumbleweed I would like to firstly say that I am firmly in the have a decent stadium camp and I feel some additional capacity would be an advantage. Unfortunately I disagree with your assessment though because we already have the highest number of season tickets in the league and I think we only just sold all of the available ones. Part of the reason for selling so many may well be because people are aware that with so few extra seats being available, buying a casual ticket on a regular basis could be difficult, so they buy a season ticket. Even with my green and yellow glasses I would be amazed if we sold any more seson tickets let alone another 6000. It is possible, with the argument above we may even sell less. Regretfully, at the moment we need to spend any available cash on the team. Get promoted and yes do the City stand and even the extra tier on the South stand otherwise it may end in tears!
  16. Pete this is not the place to put a question, but I tried, before the Colchester game, to put my prediction in but it asked for my team name, as if I was setting up a new team. It has done the same every time since, whereas in the past, when it has my name in the top right hand corner, it offers my team name. What have I done wrong? 
  17. [quote user="Mr.Carrow"]Me and a couple of mates made more noise in support of City than most of the away fans-and we were in the home end. And yes, this is a serious post.[/quote] I don''t know how you worked that out Mr Carrow. I was there and it seemed pretty noisy to me, maybe it was just in the bit I was in but we were spread pretty thinly behind the goal and in the little stand on the side. I couldn''t hear anything from anyone else apart from a chant of wkaner (?) directed at Jamie. Rubbish game, rubbish stadium and rubbish burger, bit of a waste of time really!  
  18. Sold out now I just bought the last two. 700 odd left for Scunny though. Looks like I am doing my Christmas shopping there this year!
  19. Just out of interest Vince has the circulation gone down since you can read so much abou the games on the internet?
  20. On five live just now they said one of the buyers has pulled out because of the state of the club. We will wait and see but it clearly makes administration more likely
