  1. i went with some uni mates to peterboro on tuesday evening and boothroyd i am certain was in the directors box there, surely a clever man if he can be in two places at once??
  2. [quote user="biggleyellow"][quote user="can u sit down please"] Just read on http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=1945&w=25&a=0&part=1 that a  new coach will be unveiled in the next 48hrs. The articles reads that "the new guy is only 28 and he wants to manage already,i want ambitious people around me". Age doesnt bother me one bit.If he''s good enough he is old enough, just wondering who it could be? Is it a recently retired ex pro? I aint a clue....... any ideas? [/quote] Come on lets play a guessing game, who is it? I aint got a clue, he could be a non league player who is well thought off, remember Alex Ingleton, well thats what I think his name was. He was a non league player or something alike, he managed Exeter and is no in charge of Spurs youth or similar, could be a decent move, wonder if the experiance players would relate to him,   How about Alex Notman, Mulryne, can''t think of any players who have had to retire, or have they? I''m running on... [/quote]   You have got a clue, he is 28!!  Alex Inglethorpe at Exeter is who i think you mean mate
  3. keeley hazell takes mouthful of bacon roll or hucking marvelous, darren''s derby day winner
  4. doomcaster and mumbles looked fairly happy together at Cambridge services at 8.35pm on Monday night!!
  5. surely an ''official'' approach would have to have been made to interview anyone in contract, these are normally all over the media if a club receives one???!???
  6. have to say i have long given up buying a programme, does anyone have the % figures for this season to hand that they can post up - would make interesting reading
  7. would prefer him as manager rather than working in the ticket office!
  8. cant imagine ol'' nick ross from crimewatch being to happy when he reads this, the beeb slung him out for being to old!
  9. Wasn''t the Turners £2m to cover the shortfall from parachute payments not for transfer fund, ive been on holiday for a few weeks so pardon me if this changed in my absence
  10. If the FA were to use Wembley as a massive cash cow would it not then be in their interests to sell these tickets rather than hold them back? People are to easy to criticise, Derby and WBA are both midlands clubs, not many miles further apart than Norwich and Ipswich, a local derby in some respects, who can blame the authorities for not taking a chance on fans mixing, imagine if trouble broke out and our beautiful game was stained further at what has become a ''showpiece'' occasion in the football calendar. As for the Premier League, remember that they put alot of money into the FA which is then used to development of the grassroots of the game, another fact which is lost on some!
  11. Granty always like a hard tackle as a player
  12. [quote user="Hardhouse44"] Can''t see him wanting to go from one championship team to another. Given how religated teams have struggled to produce in the following season I just couldn''t see it.   [/quote] They really struggle, Brum 1st, Sunderland 2nd, WBA 4th, sorry to be picky but facts are facts
  13. How do you know he was awesome, you are only recycling some one elses opinions
  14. I might be wrong but am pretty sure both clubs have to agree ticket prices in the FA Cup. Also remember that gate money is split so that both clubs get 40% each - I think we''ll happily take that!!!
  15. [quote user="Loughborough Canary"]I can see where Adams is coming from, Norwich were playing with the same players at the start of the season and they were playing good football.  A few injuries and consequently a few bad results and all of a sudden they look a different side.  I think what Adams was talking about was the fact that they obviously can play well.  We are a very good team ON PAPER![/quote] last time i checked football was played on grass not paper!
  16. Interesting, for you grassroots folks out there this non appeal of 5 yellows and match suspensions has found its way to the Ridgeons League, Norwich United, Diss, Wroxham etc Two match ban for swearing at the ref, in my day 35 days suspension at least and five weeks of having to take the missus to her mum''s on a Sunday rather than footie am, footie and beer pm!!!
  17. [quote user="hogesar"] I personally think, from that performance, a squad rebuild is necessary. Wipe out the midfield, exception to the wingers we have (although croft isnt doing that well). wipe out the goalkeepers, defence (exception to full backs colin nd drury - maybe). [/quote] not exactly the full squad is it? be more ruthless!!!!
  18. the last four season show that the final play-off stop requires 74 points.  we currently sit on 34 points with 54 to play for - by my maths this means we can only afford to drop around 14 points - this looks like it could be well beyond us now.
  19. why can''t we sign a lower teams good players, ie. Billy Sharp etc, or much as we did with Dean Ashton then buy another Championship sides cast off''s! Wat stops us? Money? Manager? Board? Our dimishing reputation?
  20. Two more years?  As a striker perhaps not, a defender certainly, he''s proved already he can read the game from the back four perfectly and has a fantastic footballing brain
  21. although reading some of the utter rubbish spouted on these boards you can''t blame people for sometimes coming to the opinion that support is divided the football club has a cancer eating away somewhere inside, once removed (whatever it maybe) the club will be able to balance off and begin to rebuild
  22. as Andy Gray so regularly tells us when talking about Liverpool, "why mark space, space has never scored from a corner"!
  23. [quote user="allways travelling"]To the board we ask; Why the best supported club in the championship, but the smallest squad??? answers on a postcard....[/quote] Postage stamp would be more apt!
  24. [quote user="Earninho"]It''d be like loaning your car to Jeremy Clarkson.[/quote]   Richard Hammond more like!
  25. as someone who has played a reasonable level of football i have operated under both systems.  Zonal is by far and away the most effective when it is correctly disciplined and everyone sticks to their job - the keep fact that was drummed into all players is that you attack the ball if it is in your zone - the key from the managements perspective is that they allocate correct players to correct zones. On the negative side attacking players can get a run on ala kuqi on saturday, a running jump being far more effective than from standing still, lack of concentration from one team member failing to attack the ball also causes mayhem The one uncontrolable flaw in both systems however is the dead ball taker, there are times when the quality of the ball is so good it makes defending it nigh on impossible. great discussion point though - a refreshing change!
