[quote user="Hardhouse44"]I feel very strongly that tomorrow we will be easily over powered and beaten. I''ve seen nothing at all this season to make me feel otherwise. Any defeat will of course be met by some with B/S about their being a good team and their current position. With out any perspective or reference to our stature/ status or past levels of recent or not so recent success. I believe you call them happy clappers. BUT what would be to much, surely another say 4-0 beating would show no progress and be intolerable. Not going to happen you cry. Maybe, maybe not but if you''re fooled by a couple of home clean sheets against toothless opposition I fear you may be in for a shock. So I ask what would be enough is enough time tomorrow or would some accept anther drubbing and still jog along?[/quote]Yeah right! - feeling a bit of a tw*t now eh

Swansea have signed Bony for £12m - hopefully that means NO stays - for now...............

Hopefully the Hanley deal goes through will help shore up the middle of the defence but we desperately need to find a replacement for Husband - he has been woeful so far

Latest reports on Twitter from Yorkshire Evening Post suggest it is a done deal subject to medical

Thought he was injured and a doubt for Saturday?

[quote user="Ray"]I guess different folks see things differently, I saw a player who was left exposed to a two on one and what he did was just about all he could do to stop them being one on one with Gunn. Took one for the tem in my opinion.[/quote]Agree Ray - the QPR player had evaded at least 3 Norwich tackles before Martin stepped in - agree that he took one for the team.He can''t win really - if he''d let the bloke past and he scored he''d have been hung out to dry for that too!

[quote user="keelansgrandad"]Anybody think Jerome and Oliveira could play together?[/quote]Yes I was thinking the same thing - very different players but a combination that would give any defence plenty to think about

Just seen this suggested song posted on twitter for Harrison Read - love it! (to the tune of Magic - by Pilot - yes I know it''s an old song!)Oh ho ho Reed''s magic! You know! Hard to believe he''s not Scholes!

It was a good all round team performance last night v QPR - would you change any of the personnel for the trip to Villa (assuming no injuries)?Didn''t think Murphy was really on his game but maybe it was just a one off .

He is head and shoulders above Jerome when it comes to his range of finishing - Jerome runs around a lot and is OK from inside the 6 yard box but still misses too many sitters - would be a huge blow if NO left - who would we replace him with within our budget???

If farke had got his way Nelson would have been weaing a Reading shirt!

Totally agree - Naismith looked in really good shape in pre season - I think our fitness will be a big factor this year - we were still full of running in last 15 mins Saturday when Fulham were starting to wilt

[quote user="Rock The Boat"]Webber said there was one disruptive person on tour - could it have been Oliveira?[/quote]Can''t believe Rob Butler didn''t ask him when they did the interview last week - big opportunity missed by so called Journalist

[quote user="jamie 10"]https://twitter.com/CharlieWyett/status/894288428451467265 Charlie Wyett just wrote on Twitter regarding Oliveira Farke agreed the sale to Reading and then did a late u-turn I know he''s the football editor for the sun, but could there be any truth in this? Looking at nelsons celebration he obviously wasn''t happy about something, I hope this is down to not starting the match as Farke said, we need to keep Nelson at all cost imo I can''t think of a striker realistic that could replace him at this level[/quote]I heard something similar from a reliable source this weekend apparently the deal to Reading was pretty much done but Oliviera didn''t want to go - i have respect for Farke but sureley even he can see that Nelson is a vital player if we are seriously looking to challenge for top 6

[quote user="Shaun81"]Ok here is the updated shirt. Let me know what you think. http://imgur.com/UNNJhb2 Thanks Shaun[/quote]Hi Shaun - Would prefer Farke Knows at the top of the image and For Sure at the bottomAlso not sure if you need the ? after For SureAre you definitely going to produce these - and any idea on price please?Many thanks

[quote user="Gaz_in_NZ"]Maybe..''''For Sure? Farke Knows...''''[/quote]Like that - I''d definitely buy a shirt with that on

Meanwhile the binners are currently 4-0 down at Charlton - funny - much

[quote user="Jools"]All over us like a rash at present...[/quote]Against the run of play........................

Rob Butler‏Verified account @BobRutler 1m1 minute ago I understand from both #ncfc and Wolves that no discussions have taken place about any potential Oliveira transfer. Nothing in that one.

I think £10 million paid up front will be too tempting for the club to turn down in our current financial situation - be nice if we could hold out for a bit more but would help finance a decent defender or two maybe - after all we''ve still got the other Murphy

Yes positive here too - may take a bit of time for new players to gel and hope fans have sufficient patience.Just a bit nervous about the Oliviera rumour - would be a massive loss

I''m not overly concerned at losing Howson and Dorrans - if they wanted out then there was no point in forcing them to stay - plus we''ve got Vrancic and Reed in already to soften the blow plus cut our wage costs in the process.However letting Oliveira go is a differnt matter - the guy is class and even if you got £7-£10m for him you''d have to spend at least that to get somebody else of his calibre - really hope this doesn''t happen. A few times last season when interviewed he said he was settled here - let''s hope that''s still the case.

[quote user="Big Vince"]The departure of Moxey simply confirms a trend at Norwich City - that people in senior positions do not last very long. It therefore reflects very badly on the owners of the club as they, ultimately, are the ones in charge. Consider the facts. Bowkett, McNasty and Moxey have left in the space of 14 months. The recruitment department head is also a revolving door: Ewan Chester (twice), Barry Simmonds, interregnum lasting nine months, Lee Darnborough, Mulbarton Man. And as if matters couldn''t get any worse, the U-23 manager sees fit to walk. So what do all these events say about Delia and Wynnie? Clearly the direction they have set for the club is at odds with many of the most senior people who have worked for them; except of course the poodle Alex Neil whose remit from Delia and Wynnie is to downsize the club with a view to returning to League 1. I mean let''s face it, if Delia and Wynnie have no money and they propose to hand over to the boy Tom, who also has no money, how will the club ever compete once the parachute payments run dry? League 1 is the obvious destination within this scenario. Those Norwich fans who are celebrating the departure of Moxey are probably the same ones who celebrated the departure, wrongly, of McNasty. Rather than looking at the headline event in isolation, fans need to look at the deeper, underlying problems at the club and start pointing the finger of blame in the direction of those who are properly to blame. After all, they appointed the boy Moxey and at the time of his appointment he was hailed as the outstanding candidate who fended off competition from people at EPL clubs. It reflects very badly on the owners that after such a lengthy and not inexpensive recruitment process, they wound up with someone who only lasted 6 months. There is now also the not so small matter of Moxey''s compensation. Given that he appeared to be pushed, rather than resigned, it will not come as any surprise if the compensation for loss of office could run into millions. Again, not reflecting very well on the club''s owners, is it? A significant portion of the Brady, Olsson, Canos money is going to be heading to Mr Moxey''s bank account. No wonder we couldn''t afford to properly rebalance the squad in this window - because the Moxey departure (and its financial consequence) had been brewing for some time for those who ultimately control the strings to the purse. Definitely not promotion, not promotion, not promotion now. Board and Neil out.[/quote] Yay Pig Mince is back
