  1. It time for a risk & reward for me, one team starting to hit their regular form, to get them self out of trouble and full of confidence after a great couple of results and clean sheets. Against a team who just can''t buy an away win and who''s form is erratic to say the least only the scalp of Leicester in the last 7 matches Sunderland v Southampton Home win (11/4 with WH) For the city bet well it''s got to be Nelson to score against his former team so Norwich to win with Oliveria scoring the first goal good luck pickers
  2. Don''t tell me RMc is a contributor to this forum - Is he really Waveney??
  3. [quote user="Mr Cholmondley Warner"]My summary was its grime up north, nice stadium way to big for club, annoying drummer, poor catering, traffic management non existent Let''s of fit in our team performance but not good enough to make the playoffs Neil hasn''t a clue how and when to make a substitution Neil out[/quote] Apart from that life treating you well ?
  4. Greavsy, there is another link and you can play spot the ball, all you can see is the players from the waist up!
  5. Highlights here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGBFcETqfjQ
  6. what about the old Frank Lampard song that Wet Spam used to sing to him. To the tune of ten men went to mow one man couldn''t lift couldn''t lift McCormack. One man and his Dog couldn''t lift McCormack. etc
  7. I''ve got to agree with Diane about the second goal - why do keepers set up the wall and then move behind it as the kick is taken. if JR had stayed put he would of easily saved it. - all keepers seem to do this though not just JR it must be instinctive. The first rule of keeping is if you come for a ball you''ve got to get it - if you don''t think you will don''t come, I''m not sure JR was in a position to come for there first goal- see our second goal! There are highlights on You tube.
  8. Mulumbu played very well against Villa last time he played (at least I think it was Villa.)
  9. Credit to the manager who could easily of turned his attentions elsewhere, instead he persevered and got his man, a very good way to celebrate his 100 games. Well done Alex.
  10. In Early this week, Mr Lambert has got his Wolves team on a high and we all know how this plays out.. playing a Burton side who although fighting for their lives just haven''t got the quality t 6/4 I''ll take a Wolves win Burton V Wolves Away win For the Match bet, it''s both teams to score in a drawn match. The very best of luck to Lessingham & Norfolk.
  11. [quote user="Rogue Baboon"]I still don''t get the need to spend every penny of transfer fees As for where has the money gone, I''m sure people will soon figure that out when the accounts are released - my guess is into the bank account to cover inevitable shortfalls caused by relegation and start preparing for the next window - if we don''t get promoted we will have to rebuild, if we get promoted this window''s spending is irrelavant as we can prepare for PL again[/quote] Rogue Baboon, may I suggest that if you are going to start to talk sense then you find yourself another forum - I''ve read your post a couple of times and can not find an insult towards another poster nor can I find a "secretive" swear word - now off you pop before you start posting more excellent posts. :-)
  12. Me too AJ. - I would expect he just got fed up of the infantile behaviour of a few on here, and called it a day.
  13. I''m sure I recall Laffs playing right back against Bournemouth in AN first game when Howson got sent off. Did a sterling job for the short time he was on and got in some good tackles. I did wonder if he came in at right midfield might work ?
  14. he was released as a youngster but then went through the Glen Hoddle academy. looked a busy player in the recent FA cup tie against Arsenal and his contract finishes in the summer I believe - hence the price.
  15. Good afternoon all, This week I''m going to dip into League 2 where Mansfield who have recently seen an upturn in results play host to a Leyton Orient side who''s club is in turmoil off the pitch and have lost their last 3 matches. possible value at odds better than even money Mansfield v Orient Home win For the City bet having predicted Naismith and a City win last week - I''ll go for a repeat. Good luck Chelle and LDC with your picks.
  16. Looks like changes as Brady appears to be on his way. How fit is the new left back, has he been playing for SL or are they on their winter break?
  17. Could I suggest the RIVER END building society ;-)
  18. I would consider resting Jacob - who is looking tired, maybe for Josh who''ll be on a high having just signed a new deal. Other than that leave well alone.
  19. Good luck as always to the pickers. For the main bet I''m going to suggest another possible value bet with odds nearing 3/1. A good Preston side travel to the inconsistent Villa. Aston Villa v Preston away win For the Norwich Game, These are the games we''ve got to keep winning so; a home win with Naismith scoring anytime.
  20. Surely PL is part of our history, show him the respect he deserves when he comes out, then make life as difficult as possible for him and his team after that. Otherwise we''ll be just as bad as our Suffolk friends who are always look backwards and not forwards. Alex Neil''s Yellow & Green Army...
  21. Horse, IMO this isn''t just Norwich City. It''s all the teams trying to play like the Italians in the 90s the tempo and excitement seems to have gone out of the game, I''ve watch Leicester V Chelsea and Man City V Liverpool over Christmas to "big" games and fell asleep during both. - Football is now rarely an entertainment. to many teams are playing not to lose rather than to out score the opposition.
