Complete cobblers isn’t it? At no point in any universe was it anything other than a stonewall pen. -
General Thoughts - How Do We Feel Right Now
Graham Paddons Beard replied to JB's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
I think Farke and Webber know what they need. They just cannot attract the players. “Come and play for Norwich. We are favourites for relegation and will insist on a relegation clause “. Our targets are also the targets of other clubs. We are not alone in employing data , European contacts and generic scouting networks . Everyone knows our defensive set up isn’t premier league quality . What we do about it isn’t quite so easy. -

Slightly OT BBC are between a rock and a hard place. They know their MOTD audience is still white and male , and of a particular era. I doubt anyone under 30 sees MOTD as a go to source of football insight . So they stick with Shearer et al. Shearer is painful to watch. A dinosaur from a period which is mostly irrelevant. It needs a massive change in format . The idea that you watch 5 mins of a game then spend 5 mins padding talking about it (when everyone knows they haven’t watched every game) is guff. -
Q&A With Jez Moxey & Simon Jordan
Graham Paddons Beard replied to True Grit's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
He’s got his golf clubs , trolley , and extra shopping in there too. No bother . “There's a total of 504 litres below the parcel shelf of the Qashqai – almost but not quite as much luggage space as you get in the Ateca and Karoq” Whatcar.com -

I’m not surprised. Very generous boot space. TG should be rightly proud . -

No way has he got a Qashqai. -
Q&A With Jez Moxey & Simon Jordan

I would ask Simon for his comments on the relegation dog fight in Div 3. Simon may not have the experience , nor indeed most posters on here , as you would need to be a hopelessly bad team to be involved , but any light to be shone would be welcome . Perhaps counsel could be taken from some Div 3 clubs not involved in the dog fight - huge clubs such as Morecambe, Wycombe and Accrington Stanley . -

I tend to watch MOTD when we win. So I haven’t watched it for a very long time . -
Just to cheer you up

This does cheer me up. Many thanks Dylan 🙏 -
Referee for Leicester
Graham Paddons Beard replied to Graham Paddons Beard's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Can only assume you’ve been on the sauce . “That penalty was easy to see from a fan's perspective in the stand as it's easy to see their feet relative to the ball as the ball is clearly in front. If you're a few feet above it as well, then double it.” is a spectacular use of words that in some parallel universe may make sense 😂🤣 Probably best to just finish off the bootle, Old Friend , and go and sleep it off . (it was as stone wall as you will see all season) -
Referee for Leicester
Graham Paddons Beard replied to Graham Paddons Beard's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
No it isn’t . I got it right from a lot further away than the ref. I’ve seen it once . So did everyone else I’ve spoken to. From all four corners of the ground . -

How about Ben Pearson from Bournemouth?

Referee for Leicester
Graham Paddons Beard replied to Graham Paddons Beard's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
For the record I thought Jones looked like a rabbit in headlights . Overruled by the linesman in two throw ins in the first half , which was extraordinary. The pen was stonewall but he dare not give the decision (until made to do so by VAR) . Reffed the percentages . Managed to get the “get to your feet” signal quota on Williams but not on Maddison . This is a direct instruction from POGMOL following the Euros by the way. Won’t see him doing big games for a while . Will do as many chumps as prem . Long way for him to go. -

Graham Paddons Beard replied to Thingy's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
If Ben Pearson is the answer , I have no idea what the question is . -
I’m afraid today Leicester were not the best of anything . They were poor . Gifted two goals by losing the ball in the wrong areas. Decent enough finishes but they won’t be given that many chances by most Prem Sides - and they were weakened by injury at the back. Leicester took two chances , we spurned two chances (Sargent and Idah) . Games like today are crucial to get points to stay up.

Colchester United

Stop press . Rochdale bag an equaliser and Col U slip to mid table . The old Binners will feel nicely at home . -
Just happened across their team playing in the 4th div tonight . And guess what ? It’s basically the Binners team from the last few years ! Currently beating Rochdale 1.0 . At last , Cap’n Fistpump et al have found their level 😂🤣 (PS I wonder if Fistpump has insisted on having stars on their shirts ?🤔)

Affordable Football

Surely manning a phone line costs more than an online sale ? Makes no sense .
