Well, durr - who else is there to report to???

Trouble is when he starts he is ineffective - he seems far more effective as a sub nowadays,  and usually once the game has already been lost  But is does not really seem good enough - and nor does Rusty out on the right,  nor spillane in the middle - which leaves us constantly on the back foot.   

Not sure there is anyone out there who will unite the fans bar Jewell.   However this time last year there were plenty of posters championing Parkinson - how quickly the world changes. What is it with the attraction to Alan Pardews no2s - fnarr fnarr 

Can anything have an active psychology - which I thought was the study of behaviour?   Surely is the philosphy of the club we should be studying?   I am sure some docs could answer this for me... Maybe a psychiatrist would be better for most of us on here?!?

.. At the moment can we name anyone who are ''''good players'''' in the team?

he may be a ''football expert'' but he isn''t right for our team....thats why he doesn''t seem that good!!!

woah! must be bad! well i am looking forward to watching the football but not looking forward to is manager! as we do look good against a small club that isn''t very good:D:D

the suns shining :) :) and norwich aren''t playing so i dont have to be reminded of how rubbish our manager is :) :) :) :)

 everyones had enough of protesting! hardly anyone will come and its a waste of time! think of something to get everyone involved it dont have to be about us wanting worthy to go because that''ll only get the poeple who want worthy to go involved! if you want 2 make some money think of a better way instead of putting worthys head on a dartboard! 

wayne - I was not suggesting that Nigel should pick the team fans want but was simply pointing out that if a large section of fans (amateur coaches at best) can see fundamental flaws with team selection and tactics and then suggest alternatives which, when eventually chosen from Man U home game onwards, prove successful, it does beggar the question why a highly qualified coach and one of the brightest young managers in the land could not identify the same solution earlier?   To chose that team simply because he didnt want players to claim they were not given a chance suggested he would not have arrived at that team in any other circumstances  - had we done so earlier we may have secured the couple of extra points needed to avoid relegation.   

Just been happily posting and have realised my daughter has been logged in - just assumed it was mine as normal. Apologies for any confusion on other threads dated 20th April after 7pm.   ZippersLeftFoot[:$]

Good to see you back Konstantin - an a shame that the lack of tolerance of anyone elses view will mean you are unlikely to return. It is a sad day when people can not express their opinion, which ever side of the glass fence that has been built it comes from, without a post descending into irrational vitriole.  Just because you (not you KP) do not agree with an opinion or a course of action does not automatically make it wrong - it just makes it different.  Something are intrinsically wrong but everything else is a freedom of expression and as with animal rights campaigners there are those who will make a protest illegally by using bombs, kidnapping and desecrating graves etc but that does not mean all animal liberationalists are that extreme.  Its the same with the WO/KTF groups. Its easy to assume all fan booing hughes were worthy outers - this is not the case as some fervent worthy inners were seen abusing him too, but I as a worthy outer did not, as did many others on this board.  Likewise NCISA & worthyout.co.uk have both nailed their colours to the mast on how they view and want to express their opinions.   The latter have made their ''behaviour code'' clear and they deserve paludits for that and the way they have worked with the authorities too.   That does not mean that they organise and orchestrate every out chant or negative atmosphere - that goes to the whole fan base - inners outers and hoeky cokeyers all inclusive. Why civilised fans cannot discuss the current state of affairs without resorting violence is beyond me - one lad in the lower barclay had his eye patched up after a bust up on monday and another was excluded from the snakepite - from which side of the divide either sat does not matter - they all tovividly demonstrate that the PC culture of monocular thinking pervades our club to the core which may take far to long to resolve even once Worthy has left the club. Its not the singing that is embarrasing - its the lack of tolerance of anothers view that is.        

Peter Raven has hit the nail on the head - never go back. Those of you who decry the ''kters'' for always harping on about keeping nigel because he was good once are guilty of shocking hypocrisy - both were good once but are not any good now...        

The ''organisers'' of the worthyout group are a relatively small group of posters with a background not from this board, but theoffy site and others.  Knowing many of them I know that suggesting they are dominating this board is simply not true - they do post occassionally on here but I and cityangel probably the most populous posters from this site on there and while cityangel is (wo)manfully contributing to their campaign I remain an intermittent contributor due to work and family committements.  Not all ''WO'' are members of worthyout.co.uk - even though the two groups have the same aims. For meWO.co.uk is now a  banned ''advocacy'' site! which quite amuses me.  

Like Leon he would not have changed our season purely because we would never have seen him in his best position which is as an attacking central midfielder.  He has a good touch and good vision and IF used with Safri I am sure we would have been far more competetive this season that we have been.   He could take a good free kick but his corners we are variable as any other corer taker! However as a right midfielder he was ALWAYS coming central as a result over exposing the right flank when we defendingetc and not giving the midfield the width or space it needed - as a result I woudl say he was positionally weak as he could not keep the shape the team needed.  As a right midfielder he would have filled the gap just as jj, hughes, WLY, hendo etc etc have been asked to do.   Our midfield has been a distaster because we only started the season with 4 central midfielders, too many of whom were back up rather than startng players, and no wide midfielders for either flank. When spending in Jan we only brought in cover for the leaving players - Marney and JJ.  Trying to go through a season with just 4 recognised midfielder, 3 new to the club and one of them an inexperienced loanee expected to play out of position really is an example of failing to plan being planning to fail. 

Another dig at the club no matter what. When is he supposed to go on holiday?? Is he not allowed a hols cos he is a club official?   During the transfer window is the worst possible time, which rules out Jan and Jun-Sept.  That only leaves during the season - where is his committment here?   We have nothing to play for and he cant physically sign anyone for weeks yet - surely its the best possible time?  Give it a rest and worry about the real challenges - why cant worthy get this group of players to perform, can worthy actually see that we need a right midfielder, does he see the same performances from our midfield that the fans do?  When are the board going to take their fingers out of their ears, open their eyes and take their heads out of the sand (ran out of cliches there) and realise that hoping a problem goes away never actually work - decisive action is needed, when are the fans going to have the courage of their convictions, ditch their apathy and do something about the manager rather than just sit in bars, offices and living rooms moaning about the problem?  12mins freak football against a demoralised QPR team satisfying an angry crowd when the 1st 78 mins was the true reflection of this season?    

An essential part of our squad who gives us his all when focused on his football,  a proven goalscorer at this level and causes defences trouble when we play the ball on the deck. Is an excellent ''second'' striker but not so hot when he is the target/first striker.  Poor touch means he will not be a regular prem striker but his persistence mean in that league he is an excellent sub option. A core member of of squad next season and he must not be allowed to leave in the summer.

Isnt that only the prem AJ? (An Andy Hughes for every additional league position!)

lol Rude old. well if todays stunt is anything to go by he is still there - training in teh away strip to ''acclimatise'' to it in prep for sats game.   Looks like we are now blaming inanimate shirts for this seasons abysmal performances rather than inanimate players;  make a change from blaming the fans tho.  

why are you worrying about delia when its worthington trying to be kept in whilst people want him out!  We dont need to replace the whole of Norwich! altough she does make out that everthings fine....! BUT FOR TALKING ABOUT THE FOOTBALL NIGEL NEEDS TO BE DELT WITH! tactics are wrong, we dont mark, we give up when they have the ball,  he plays most of the team in the wrong positions and he doesn''t like young players!!!!!!! theres onli one thing we need to get rid off..........errrmmm......WORTHINGTON the person who plays football as if its hoofball! think about it!

could it possibly be he''s stopped developing because he doesnt get any games...surely young players develop quicker by learning from playing games rather than running up and down and a bit of time in the gym...   or that he is demoralised at seeing numerous neww striking signings and loan players come in when he should be getting his opportunities?

He has to go before the start of next season but can anyone really see it happening?  Sadly I cant. The club have infinite patience and require unity for the manager, but worthy does not give the same committment to the players, look at the massive turnover of staff over the last 4-5 seasons and lack of opportunities to the youngsters - is it any wonder Ryan Jarvis is demoralised when he has seen at least 9 striker come and take place in the squad ahead of him sine he got his debut?. The club ask us to consider the managers record in getting us up;  yes that part of his history is excellent and I will be eternally grateful for what he and the clubs board acheived during those 3 amazing seasons.   However the club chooses to overlook the immediate history with huge number of goals conceeded, poor quality football, low morale, sterile midfield and inadequate tactics among numerous errors that have been perpetuated from season to season, including the champs season. Nor do they recognise the similarities with the current plight of the club with the final days of worthys reign at Blackpool, another piece of history they choose to overlook;  crowd unrest with poor signings, poor tactics and over-reliance on the long ball game. If the club are to rely on hope and history for their reasons to keep the manager, they should at least take into account all elements of the managers history, not just the best of highlights available on DVD in all good stockists. 

Result will depend on the type of football we play;  we could win or lose 3-0 depending on the circumstances.   I am still firmly worthy out but will not protest before or during the game and will, as always, give the team 100% support during the game.  Not gut feel yet (said we would do well last sat. one advantage of a large gut I guess) but a score draw is on the cards. 

I am sat in the lower barclay and the only worthy out chants I heard against stoke were from the soke fans, until about 5 mins to go when a group in the snakepit started a chant (that I did not join in). Where were you sat, silver, when singing the worthy out chant during stoke, as I certainly didnt hear you nor did friends sat in several other stands?  

11 points from 18, across the season would guarantee a play off spot.  No, performances have still not risen above average but things APPEAR to be improving as results have painfully slowly improved.   To have another protest now when things MAY be improving would be inappropriate. The jury is definitely still out and this is a wait and watch and see what happens,  taking into account the clubs call for unity - I am with the worthyout site on this one as I will not be an easy fan to convince that worthy is the right man for the job but this sat is not the time for protests.   I am not saying worthy should stay, indeed I would still have preferred him being replaced before Xmas,  but now is not the time for a significant protest - 2 weeks time may be; as  they say a week is a long time in politics. If others wish to protest that of course is your choice, as it is those who chose to voice displeasure during a game;  however that is simply not my view...   As for calling the KTFs or the worthyout.co.uk guys (not a one man ban by any stretch) non real supporters and giving up to easily insults and underestimates all fans passion for the club on the grounds their opinion is not valid - which is clearly ludicrous.
