[quote user="canary cherub "]That''s what he said in his interview on Radio 5. Did he mean "if we struggle I''ll get the sack so I won''t be here" or "if I don''t get the backing to build a squad that won''t struggle I''ll move on" or ????   [/quote]That''s quite obviously what he meant, for crying out loud.

And we complain about fans of the ''Sky 4'' suffering from knee-jerkism.Get a grip guys.  We''re still top scorers in this league by a million miles.  We have the most potent attack we''ve had for some time.  So we lost.  Oh no.

The online coverage is excellent, I agree.  But 10 minutes of a 30 minute program talking to fan, and following it up with 5 seconds of footage from the game?  Ridiculous.

[quote user="Canaries Utd"]Have to say though, what the F**K, they just showed the goal, no manager comments, no other player interviews... the programme SUCKS!!! night night all, GGrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.[/quote]Agreed.  However much the BBC have spent on FL highlights, they''re not exactly getting their money''s worth.  Useless.

It was a nice segment on a dedicated, extremely rich (and extremely hot) City fan.Cannot believe they spend 10 mins on it to show literally 5 seconds of match ''highlights.''

Wouldn''t mind Grella from Leeds if they falter.  Snodgrass would be nice as well, actually.

[quote user="lincoln canary"][quote user="Mr_Chimp"]It''s probably worth noting (if it hasn''t been already) that the last game built up to such a level of hype and importance was Colchester United away.[/quote]   ahh but if i recall we were the ones under pressure to avenge the 7-1 defeat? Col who had no pressure what so ever, and look what happened!! [/quote]Well yes, that''s exactly what I''m saying.  This team responds extremely well under pressure, and make no mistake, they will be under a hell of alot of pressure to beat Leeds tomorrow.

[quote user="a1canary"]I''m with you Jim but don''t think it will happen. I liked it when Lambert responded to Russell''s suspension by going all out offensive. And with Leeds confidence shot, i''d like to see us rip in to them all guns blazing (inc Macca) from the off.[/quote]As far as tactical changes go that is one of the most exciting and inspirational things I''ve seen a Norwich manager do in years.

[quote user="PurpleCanary"]Indeed, I’m struggling to see how anything he has done so far is a bad thing, apart from getting in a slanging match with posters.[/quote]It''s not exactly hard to do, to be fair. 

[quote user="SJkitty"][quote user="TIL 1010"] [quote user="cityangel"]Bumped for Steve of the kitty to confirm that a cheque has been sent to the club and was it £3000?[/quote] You are wasting your time CA going on past performances.If you are going to the NCFC forum on 16th how about you or i ask Mr McNally because i for one will take as gospel what he says unlike the mirrors and smoke we have been subjected to since day one from The Kitty end. [/quote] Spin makes a change from the lies i suppose..add to that some rumours from your imaginary friends and you have unleashed just about everything on the kitty in this thread John. No wonder I called you a prat..  I should see Mr Mcnally this week whilst handing over the cheque...As there is no cheque book the signatories have to take time off work to get one issued to the club which is why there was a delay. Part of the security measures made when the kitty was formed to ensure funds were safe. When it has been done Norwich City Kitty''s name will be clear.. As all bookwork has been submitted and monies paid across. It will have raised £3000 + (£2000 for cancer research paid directly to them before i get any questions)(approx figures to save other questions) This was with very little support whilst being constantly discredited or accused by the chairman of NCISA. NCISA stand accused collectively for allowing this. NCISA have no purpose other than to be destructive to the club and anything that stands to help it. I suggest you get your thinking caps on as NCISA are about to experience fight for its credibility and reason for existence other than being an Achilles heel and a ego trip for its chairman. Oh and just to make it clear I am still working and haven''t finished yet at 1am, so for me to answer at this time is quite normal.. [/quote]Is this meeting with McNally the meeting with NCFC Associate Directors? FWIW I don''t think anything criminal has gone here.  Rather some fans have tried to help and got in over their heads, and are no longer sure how to proceed.

[quote user="Drazen Muzinic"]Bipolar doesn''t even start to cover it... On WACCOE tonight it''ll be how they now going to win the Champions League and Grayson is more of a genius than Alex Ferguson. On Saturday after the Saints put their third goal in, it''ll be how the team is a bunch of w**k*rs who have f**ked it up again and are not fit to wear the shirt and how anyone from Norfolk is a c**t and Grayson deserves to die and Beckford should be run out of town - the Judas f**ker. Or something equally balanced and well-observed.[/quote]It''s like the Pink Un forum - ASBO Edition.

It''s all a bit ''off''.  These are incredibly simple questions to answer and quite frankly it should never have got to the point where they needed to be asked.

I would suggest it may be worth anyone who offered a donation contacting the Club, as it seems answers aren''t exactly forthcoming from the people involved.

[quote user="paul moy"][quote user="Mr_Chimp"]Martin is a good player, with the potential to become a very, Very Good one.  I love him to bits.  He''s dropped the attitude and upped his ability - and while he doesn''t charge about like a lunatic his touch and vision is so good he has absolutely no need to do so.  Screw the haters - he upset them as an 18 year old and he''s not going to win them round now.[/quote] So, because I''m critical of his past few performances, I''m a hater, and I won''t forgive him because he upset me as an 18 year-old ? [:D]   That seems a bit strange as I put money on him at the beginning of the season at 25/1 for him to be top-scorer. [/quote]No, you''re not.  I was referring to the folks who complain constantly no matter what he does.

Sorry, should have added - that''s what I would love them to come out to.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WyCigHHwOcEDuel of the Fates by John Williams (from Star Wars)Though Spurs use it, I get a lob on for classical music played over football.  If not, maybe the Balcony Scene from Romeo and Juliet. (used by the BBC for Euro 2004)

It ain''t gonna happen.  25 secs plus no mention afterwards is my bet.

0-2Oldham are abysmal.  Even if we play poorly we''ll cruise past them.

[quote user="Norfolk Lutonian "][quote user="Mr_Chimp"][quote user="SJkitty"] I will ask the treasurer to send the payment to the club... I will ask the club to send a copy of a receipt to NCISA thanking them for their support.. I will now take steps to close the whole Kitty project. It will be best, as it will focus supporters attention on how poor NCISA performs as the main supporters group. Discussion is now closed.[/quote] Discussion is not closed.  Stop behaving like a petulant child. As if there was nothing else you could do to make this whole affair look like amateur hour...you somehow found it. [/quote] seems pretty closed to me mate...sorry but he''s done what is asked. I don''t accept his arguement on NCISA, but this surely has to be ignored and moved on? If he doesn''t get a reaction he''ll stop his slander. [/quote]I see your point but he hasn''t actually done anything that was asked.  There was a list of perfectly reasonable, straightforward questions put to him on behalf of the Kitty that, quite frankly, shouldn''t even need to be asked.  None of these have been answered other than the above hysterical whine.
