Hoolahan - Good or bad?
The Voice of the Thorpe Area replied to Canary's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
[quote user="Ginger Pele"]Right im going to say this, i might get blasted, but i think Hoolahan is a better player than Huckerby....... I like Huckerby more, and i think he has done more for Norwich than Hoolahan could in 10 seasons here, but Hoolahan, isnt just a simple, run towards goal, look for a cross ot shoot kind of player, he is really intelligent, and i think he shows that, the main problem he has is his strength, and obviously, when he stays still for a couple of seconds, looking for a pass, he will get shoved off the ball, he does misplace passes a bit as well, but i think he is a wonderful player, the best thing Roeder did for Norwich was Buy Hoolahan, i didnt want to mention that mans name again, and have ignored all threads about him, but that was one thing i would thank him for, [/quote] Better than Huckerby? Pele- were you in a coma for 3 years whilst he was here?! -
City Reserves Tonight
The Voice of the Thorpe Area replied to Norfolk canary's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
[quote user="Nuff Said"]I was at Birmingham and watching when the players were doing shooting practice. Cody was the only one to hit the back of the net every time! Shame he didn''t get on. If we can keep some of the loans - Gow, Lee, Bertrand ideally Mooney too - I think things look really encouraging for next season and with some promising players waiting in the wings who knows how far we can go? Just call me Percy. [/quote] Dunno, League Two? Oh you meant upwards...! -
Permanent prices
The Voice of the Thorpe Area replied to canaryman's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
I hear Cristiano Ronaldo is available for £100,000 plus a homemade Delia yorkshire pudding! Bertrand and Evans would cost far far more than that! £2-3million each at the very least. -
The really POSITIVE news
The Voice of the Thorpe Area replied to Dean Coneys boots's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
[quote user="the artist formerly known as VIYAG"] What is making me most pleased is that where Roeder came in with a bang- having a great run but then faltering once his own decisions came into effect- Gunn is proving the opposite. He came in and the remnants of Roeder cast a shadow...but as the coaching team work their magic the reuslts are starting to come. Rome wasnt built in a day and they need a lot more time. But I reall do feel that the signs of health might be returning. Those who bleed green and yellow are now at the helm and their passion for the club is flowing into the players. If we can avoid the drop....then we could start a slow but steady rise up the table and challenge for the top in about three years! [/quote] Could be true, but we were saying the same about Roeder don''t forget (when we were actually worried he might leave the club...). We''re still in huge trouble at the bottom, we''re by no means safe yet. -
De Santos...

Haha, got carried away in the excitement of drawing (yep, we''re that bad)! -
...went off after 25 minutes today. I hope he isn''t injured!

[quote user="Mr. Norwich City"][quote user="jas the barclay king"] so Daryl Sutch and Mark Barham are going to be there.. but which Norwich Legends are turning up? *tin hat at the ready*lol! jas :) [/quote] can''t agree more! sutch would be a legend is he scored his pen and we went to the prem when we reached the playoffs! [/quote] Jesus, wasn''t that just the worst penalty ever? Apart from Peter Devine (fans of Nick Hancock should know what I mean!)

F****** Sky TV.
The Voice of the Thorpe Area replied to Herb's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
What''s the problem? Night game= better atmosphere. Night game= much needed money. Night game= we know in advance what we need from the game! -
Completely OT: Cricketing Referrals
The Voice of the Thorpe Area replied to Huddy 's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
The problem with the referrals is that cricket is not like football- it is a game with strong principles for respecting the umpire (principles that football left behind long ago). The Umpire''s decision is always final is what I was always taught. The referrals makes a complete mockery of the foundations of the game. Unlike goal-line technology or replays to determine a hand-ball or not, many cricket decisions cannot be decided in a few seconds, if at all. And in the cases of the two ''caught behinds'' tonight- visual evidence is useless, but audio and common sense should have said that they actually got both decisions wrong- there was no noise on Cook''s bat but was given out, whilst Strauss quite clearly has an edgy noise on his shot, but is given not out. The whole thing is a complete shambles, making a fairly moderate paced format of the game even slower. -
WHERE IS SHE?
The Voice of the Thorpe Area replied to Plastic Scouser's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
[quote user="beachbum"] She may well care for the club. The drunk at the end of the bar in my local cares for the club. But he has no more idea than she does of how to run it. [/quote] Are you sure it''s not the same person?! -
Although it is painfully clear that the club legend that is Bryan Gunn is not a capable football manager, we cannot allow ourselves to divert the blame of our impending relegation away from those really responsible- the majority shareholders, chairman and the chief executive. These 4 people have relegated Norwich City with rubbish decision-making time and time again. To get out-played for 90 minutes by a side with only 7,000 home supporters to their name (compared to the 20,000 that we have) is not a reflection on Gunn, but on the board''s appointment of him, and the 2 clowns before him. I could type away until the early hours about the seriously worrying bad decisions from the top of this club- ones that would make Sir Fred Hall''s pension look deserved in comparison- but there''s little point, we all know, and even they do now, what they are. We as fans must act now in the best interests of our club- we have done so in our droves by commiting to watch League One football next season, and we must do again now in order to give ourselves the best chance of quick return to the Championship next term. We have to be realistic- calling for Delia and Wynn-Jones to go will achieve nothing, as there is no-one out there to invest in a failing football club currently. However, there are people out there who are more capable at running a football club on a day-to-day basis than Neil Doncaster. Moreover- Delia has a history of bowing to public pressure to sack people of authority doesn''t she? As many people as possible need to stay at CR after the game on tuesday, no matter what the result, which will undoubtly be a defeat, to shout for him to be sacked with immediate affect. Make your own signs/ banners/ etc. Any other suggestions welcome- but we MUST do something.
