This graph shows the last months averages across all the major bookies. The first big blip relates to Earnshaw leaving, the other two i think may relate to Etuhu and Safri. Look at that last blip though, do the bookies know something we dont? Just how informed are they and would you agree with this being a realistic perception of our chances.

http://chelsea.theoffside.com/transfer-news-and-player-movement/jimmy-smith-chelseas-reserve-team-captain-a-montage.html Quite impressive, i like the bit where etuhu is glaring at him

I think the answer might be that he stated that he would not have another trial after the way boothroyd treated him. By hanging out his signing, Peter is effectively having him on trial at training to check him out properley and protect our valuable coffers. Quite clever i would say.

Correct me if im wrong but the number 5 shirt has not been allocated with Donkerty getting no 27 http://www.canaries.premiumtv.co.uk/page/NewsDetails/0,,10355~1068295,00.html Does this mean that the no 5 is being reserved for a new centre back? Hope so!

And this from the Telegraph Norwich had frustrated their fans for most of the evening. It required two pieces of brilliance from Huckerby, scoring his fourth and fifth goals of this FA Cup campaign, to steady the nerves. Both were trademark efforts: for the first, he received the ball on the left, dipped a shoulder and headed on a diagonal towards goal. The shot, from an angle, arrowed past Evans into the top corner. The second, five minutes into extra time, was set up by Youssef Safri''s short free-kick, Huckerby curling his shot inside the far post. I just love the "trademark efforts" bit. Just one of those "trademark efforts" against chelsea would do

  "Lack of goal scoring left sided midfielders" Go on Maclaren Give him a game!

Regarding  our chances of beating Chelsea "On this evidence, the odds of Norwich beating Chelsea may not be much shorter, but when Huckerby is in the mood, anything is possible." Too bloody right

Celtic boss Gordon Strachan wants to be reunited with his old Coventry striker Darren Huckerby. The Sunday Mail says Huckerby is available on a free next summer and is set to sign a pre-contract agreement with Celtic in the new year. The striker has racked up transfer fees of more than ?10 million in his colourful career playing for Newcastle, Coventry, Leeds, Manchester City and Norwich. Strachan watched the pacy frontman in action for the Canaries during a pre-season friendly against Falkirk in July. With Derek Riordan out of favour, Craig Beattie beset by injury problems and Maciej Zurawski struggling for form Huckerby would be an ideal acquisition for the champions.

I do have to say though that the players look a bit two dimensional, actually come to think of it sometimes they do play in two dimensions.Also im not sure that Earnshaw is exactly to scale.Good bloody effort.

"I''d rather die in a fatal car crash than pay £6m for Rob Green." "Finally, if we do end up signing him, I think he needs to smarten himself up a bit. His barnet may cut it in Naw-which, but come on mate put a comb through it" "He''s big, he''s fat His hair looks like its been thatched Robert Green, Robert Green!"

From the Daily Telegraph Its almost unbelievable isnt it? Even you Paul "Foghorn Leghorn" Rankin surely must be feeling optimistic? Other quotes from national newspapers this weekend i thought i would never see while Worthy is in charge include "Darren Huckerby tracked back and got in a decisive tackle" "Huckerby out-muscled Kevin Foley to win the ball" "but his team have posted an early warning that they have just as much fight as flair" "Man of the match Dickson Etuhu" "a dynamic central-midfield partnership with Youssef Safri" ny other quotes we thought we would never see out there? Oh and if Darren Anderton can still pass a ball, with the pace we have i would give him a season.

Ive already posted this once but strangely it dissapeared, anyway i think this might be worthy in disguise All this Worthy out stuff is getting too much and the criticisms aimed at some of my, oops i mean our players have started to affect their ability to play. How do you think Andy Hughes feels for example, when he signed for me, sorry i mean us i told him that he was being bought in to replace hucks as the creative force in the team, after all you cant give the ball to the opposition when you are busy clapping. I Nigel Worthington err sorry I mean random fan accept that some of Clappys 60 yard passes havent quite hit the spot in a Stevie G fashion but that is purely down to people like Huckerby lacking anticipation as to where the ball would land and not being quick enough to cover the entire pitch all at once to accept his exquisite pass wherever it may land.Furthermore as i spend my entire time checking for criticisms of me ,err sorry the manager on this site I also have to address issues surrounding Etuhu or as i, sorry I mean Delia likes to call him the new Viera. Here is a player so effective that he controls the entire game whilst appearing to do nothing at all, his skills in talking with the dead through voodoo seem to have gone totally unnoticed.His ability to pass the ball to the invisible ghost of Sir Stanley Mathews on the right wing amazes me at times.I, err sorry the manager have been criticised for selling that girl Dean Ashton to West Ham, it seems that nobody else noticed his total inabilty in the scrum and lineout.I, sorry the manager was quoted in the EDP that he should "rough up a few defenders". He refused to do this citing that he wasnt Tommy Smith and that the game had changed since my day, so he had to go and was replaced with the towering Robert Earnshaw (though he did seem a little shorter in the flesh than on the football card i got in my latest pack) who will thrive on the high balls we play all day long.It seems that my, sorry i mean Nigels biggest failing is an inability to motivate players, well i said to Mcveigh that if he cuts out all the Roy of the Rovers stuff and concentrates on scoring 3 goals each time he comes on as a substitute i will give him a contrct worth 3 guinees a year and a farthing for each goal he scores and what does he do, he throws it in my face. he has an easy chance from 55 yards out against Derby and passes it to that lazy sod Huckerby for an easy tap in. I rest my case

Quoted in todays telegraph http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/main.jhtml?view=DETAILS&grid=&xml=/sport/2006/02/20/sfgnor20.xml This part suggests dissent in the ranks, oh Goody! "There was no need for any of this Roy of the Rovers stuff," said Worthington. "We''re better with the ball than without it." Which brought a sharp retort from Huckerby: "I''ve been here two years. The gaffer ought to know how I play by now. And yes, I''d do exactly the same thing again." And this wry observation hints that they know what we know about worthington "Between times Bolder met his match in Gary Doherty, who was outstanding at the back. He might have been a better nomination for man of the match - in Worthington''s eyes at least."

How long before we see in the press this comment from worthy "Ive told earnshaw not to shoot unless he can definately score because we cant keep giving the opposition the ball cheeply" and "They scored the winner after Earnshaw gave the ball away with a shot at goal that didnt go in, ill be having a chat with him about showboating" or "If i was manager of Roy of the Rovers id make him defend more" Good Grief! Comments please

Nigel Worthington called on Darren Huckerby to ''cut out the Roy of the Rovers stuff'' after the in-form frontman had helped the Canaries to an important victory.
