  1. Rubbish. It was one of those dodgy plastic forks that you get with their pasta pots. Not fit for purpose. My own performance was exemplary. 🤣
  2. I actually gave up half way through. I dropped some Tesco pasta down my shirt which I am NOT HAPPY ABOUT 😡 I’m going to vent my rage at the lady behind the till in the petrol station that sold it to me . Tesco Thetford should be ashamed of themselves. Boooooooooooooo. 😲
  3. Just reading this over an Executive Tesco Meal Deal. What a load of tripe . I especially love the pseudo intellectual guff . And some thing about a sausage roll? If I go to the bakers and there is no one there , does it make a sound? Football fandom is a wonderful mixture of irrational passion and emotional outpouring ! If next time something happens whilst watching City - I feel the need to reach for a Desmond Morris thesis , you have my permission to shoot me .
  4. Yup I remember those times well. Standing at Upton Park in the cup , half crushed to death, cant see 2/3rds of the pitch , “liquid” running down the steps and over your shoes . Oh how I miss those days . 🤣
  5. I was wondering how to put my thoughts into words. And then you did it for me. 👍
  6. Here is what I have learned from this message board over the years . The meeting was / wasn’t called by known / unknown folk who did / didn’t want the current incumbents gone. The evening/morning/lunchtime meeting was a tense affair . Some revellers were in drink and became rowdy . As speaker after speaker addressed the throng (or it may have been wore a thong - this bit is hazy) a near riot broke out . St Andrew himself then came down and smote all those in attendance , and proclaimed that the whole of Norwich should become a self funding city , which eventually would be bequeathed to one , chosen , golden soul . History records this heroic mythical soul as “Nephew Tom” - who’s qualification as once owning a camera shop was beyond reproach. I may be wrong on a few details but I reckon that covers it . GPB
  7. You don’t remember the Peter Grant or Glen Rodent years then? It was cr4p tonight but you do need a sense of perspective Old Bean.
  8. Nobody had a decent game . Wishful thinking is one thing . Still as Lord Melchett said 'If nothing else works, a total pig-headed unwillingness to look facts in the face will see us through.' 😂
  9. No doubt that has something to do with it . We create lots more chances in the Chumps.
  10. The mystery for me is how we play some of the best football I’ve ever seen from a City side , blow the division away , and as soon as we get up we look hopeless. I get that we have a style , but how can it be so brilliant in one division and useless in the Prem? it’s not like the Chumps is a pushover is it ? Not picking on individuals .wouldn’t bother with a sponsors MOM. Maybe the kit man.
  11. Some truly awful individual performances here - but as a team this is woeful. Farke looks like a beaten man .
  12. What happened to that idiot Chris Someone? Came on here and gave us a lecture on US Pension Funds and how to write off debt ? I was expecting him back after their excellent win over Lincoln Athletic?
  13. Inflatable yo-yo’s !! That’s my idea and I’m claiming 10%
  14. Exactly. The first year up we won most , if not all, of the six pointers against teams like QPR. We nicked a few standout points - away to Liverpool, away to Spurs, springs to mind- but it was gaining points and in turn denying teams around you that are the most valuable. Frankly anyone who can’t see that really should take up knitting .
  15. Leicester- two wins . Very poor at Carrow Road . Luckily for them we gave them two goals .
  16. Great broadcaster. I recall on Saint and Greavsey they were discussing our relegation in 1985 when Coventry played those last three games including a drunken Everton who had won the league. “Should be a stewards enquiry if you ask me Saint “ said Jimmy. I loved him even more after that . RIP .
  17. I applaud you sir . A proper football fan . 👏
  18. Really very simple . Don’t watch it . What do you expect ? We hold the record for relegations , went straight done last year , sit bottom of the league without a win. When your mum told you not to look into the sun , I bet you did . I watched Trading Places. One of the greats.
  19. You mean like they had to when he missed the stonewaller against Leicester?
  20. By the way it gets worse . He’s done two games this season.
  21. No media interest. A nothing game in the world of football. We only got Oliver last week because it was Arsenal and they were bottom. It’s pathetic.
