    I enjoyed Tim Sheppards testimonial against Celtic. I remember they bought a huge army of fans which helped create a brilliant atmosphere that night. I think we went 2-0 up which seemed great at the time as we were a very poor side back then only to lose 4-2 as the golden oldies were given a run out in the second half. Also I saw one of the best goals at carrow road which was the Henrick Larsson volley. I''m not sure whether I imagined this or not but did Bellars make a guest appearance that night?

    Erm..I cant tell you for a fact, and this aint no joke, that O''Neil did actually speak to the Derby board about the managers postion before Billy Davies became manager. Obviously he didnt join but the fact he was willling to talk to them must have meant something....

    Excellent player judging by that match. He played right wing in the first half and tried to attack at every opputunity. However in the second half he moved to right back and was absoloutly immense. Sweden threw everything at T+T in the second half and were playing with 10 men so everyone of their defenders were under the cosh at all times. I remember one point in the second half Ibrahimovic was running down the left and took on one player and got himself in a good position and tried to do some fancy bit of skill when suddenley Edwards was in there like a flash and tackled him and came away with the ball and played a lovely ball down the line to the T+T striker. But his finest moment was when Ljungberg was in the box about to shoot and score probably. He recovered brilliantly and made a perfectly timed sliding tackle that saved T+T. Judging by that match, he would be a sound investment and alot of us (including myself) were wrong to judge him before we had seen him play properly.

    "Enjoy the ''football'' again?" You''re obviously not going to Carrow Road next season then ''Getting off on a fence''.....Kings Lynn or Norwich Utd at Plantation Park is it?...........

    We don''t have to win all the time for me to enjoy it. If you want that support Chelsea.

    You''re right there Fence. I also can take loosing as long as the team has given it their all and done their best to play decent football. However last season we didnt really see any half decent attempt to try and play football the way we had in previous seasons which was what annoyed me the most. When the supporters saw how much money had been spent on the squad they naturally expected us to have done better and won more games. It''s also hard to enjoy a game when you see the ball pumped into the sky all game, its leaves a rather nasty pain in the neck area [;)]

    Fair play, your a rather optimistic chappy! However I''m of a very different opinion to you, I just cant see the club progressing under Worthington and at this moment in time I''m not looking forward to the coming season. Last season was a BIG mistake and Worthington, in the past, has not learnt from his mistakes which is definatly a worry for most supporters...

    I, also, am  not sure about how we will get on next year as nothing as happned yet re are squad etc...

    However I think that Sunderland will do worse than what we did last season, finishing round about 14th to 10th. I reckon Brum and West Brom will be leading the way at the top by a considerable margain. Now Derby seem to have some stability and a decent manager I can see them pushing for the play offs with a chance of winning the play offs. The other teams I can seee pushing for the play offs are: Southampton and Leeds. Obviously you have teams like Preston and Palace who could be up there (like previous seasons) but that depends which managers they get in and what players are bought. One thing I am worried about though is Ipswich, if they can get a good manager in (Martin Allen has now said he will be leaving Brentford) they could finish quite high up too. With Ipswich I just feel they have good potential with all their up and coming youngsters and if the new manager is given the financial backing from Sheepshagger they could suprise a few...

    I think Colchester and Barnsley could well struggle next season and could go straight back down. I never really rated anyone in the Colchester squad and one of the few that i did rate (Neil Danns) is probably now leaving for literally nothing. However I feel Southend will do quite abit better if they hang onto Eastwood for the whole season, and could finish anywhere from just above the relegation zone to about 12th.

    In Norwich''s case though, we will have to really make use of the parachute payments and spend the money wisely on our problem positions and fill those positions with real quality players. This year in the Championship is going to probably be the hardest ever so any mistakes will cost a team dearly....
