[quote user="......and Smith must score."][quote user="Wesley Hoolahan"]http://www.skybet.com/skybet?action=GoEvType&id=10002896[/quote] Must be something in that. Expect the announcement very soon...... [/quote]Yes indeedy and I would be happy with that

The FeelGoodFactorO''Meter has been on Zero after twelve months of Roederisation, Hux coming back would be worth it just for the lift it would give the club, the sacking of Glen Roeder has added a huge boost, lets keep the momentum going with an offer for Hux

Yes it''s Roeder for me, by some distance not just unpopular but despicable, arrogant and useless all at the same time, now that takes some beating!

Getting shot of Roeder and Fotherington in the same week - what a result!

Might be worth having a -  Punt on Bill

 "what if scummers hijacked the voting for example?" We would end up with Roeder!! OMFG!

Boothroyd has a personality which already puts him way above Grant or Roeder, I don''t think you can underestimate how important it is for players to both like and respect their manager, if you want to get the best out of them that is, if you need convincing just ask Glen Roeder

With Roeder''s sacking the feel good factor has suddenly returned, if we are happy, the players must be ecstatic! prepare yourself for 3 points on Saturday

Get Hux back quick, before it''s too late and right one of the biggest  mistakes of Roeder''s arrogant tenure

[quote user="ncfcstar"]I must have missed his tenure as England manager[/quote]Lol, Pity we didn''t miss his tenure as Norwich manager, we wouldn''t be in the mess we are in. Fair play to the board at least they have got something right!

I would love to go but I will be staying in and washing my side burns on that particular day

I''m not actually suggesting it would be a good idea to get Worthington back, I think it would be a bad idea but he was no where as bad as GR even in his worst ever season, at the same time Worthington was a gentleman and a decent guy in comparison

[quote user="Graham Humphrey"][quote user="Suffolk Canary"]we were 11th when worthy went! that cant be that sh*t! [/quote]No we weren''t, we were 17th and plummeting down the league at an alarming rate. If he had stayed I think we would have been relegated that year.[/quote]To be fair to Worthington 17th was pretty much his lowest league position, after 5 losses in 10 games he was sacked With GR [other than his initial spurt] 17th in both seasons seems to be his highest attainable position. GR has lost 7 of his last ten games

[quote user="Suffolk Canary"]we were 11th when worthy went! that cant be that sh*t! [/quote]Got us to 2nd at one point during the season he was sacked too, not saying it would be a good idea to get him back but makes me wonder why we are being so tolerant with GR, who is clearly cr@p in comparison

So is GR saying he will only bring Carl Cort on when we are winning? The cr@p this guy comes out with would be laughable if  it wasn''t for the fact we are heading for Div 3

[quote user="AJ"]Face it, Roeder probably didn''t get enough credit for what he managed to do last season.This season hasn''t entirely gone to plan, but this is our club and we''ve got to get behind the team and support them rather than make things worst!Who can seriously come into a club and do anything with no money? Roeder has done well to bring a lot of players here (Lita, Bertrand, Clingan) with the little cash he has. I do agree with some points people are making, and sure he doesn''t always get the team selection right and is an arrogant twunt.But he is manager of Norwich City Football Club, and should have the full backing of staff and fans alike.He saved us last season, and I have full faith that he can save us again.So lets get together and support our football club like we should![/quote]Are you joking? Roeder and his dwindling supporters have been milking that little chestnut for all it''s worth, some even describing it as some kind of miracle! - lets get real, GR got some points initially with Grants old team, then  began putting his own stamp on things, survived relegation by one game and since then [after bring in 22 players] has failed miserably

[quote user="ellis206"][quote user="John Boubepo"][quote user="ellis206"][quote user="Larry David"]Given their track record of failure, what makes you all think that if GR is sacked (unlikely in my opinion), that they will bring someone in who will actually take this club forward? Their only good appointment was Worthington and I believe that came by luck rather an informed opinion.   [/quote]Why do they have a track record of failure? Norwich have been a second division side for most of our history, nothing has changed. And before everyone starts moaning that its fans like me who are ruining this club, I''m just pointing out the facts, obviously I want us to be in the top flight, but it''s not going to happen until we get investment. Due to the financial situation we were in after Chase left, I think it was actually an achievement for Norwich not to get relegated through the leagues, especially when we had to sell all of our big players. Also Glenn Roeder wasn''t a bad appointment, you lot may not like him now (and I don''t like his arrogance) but he did a magnificent job last season, and at one point people were talking about a late surge into the play offs, people have forgotten that already, some people really do have short term memorys. [/quote]We avoided relegation by one game,  if we had lost our last home game against QPR we would have been relegated, that''s how close it was, I don''t consider that a magnificent job. Luckily enough for GR, Grants old squad pulled together for the first couple of months and got some points on the board, since then it''s been downhill and Norwich have been in the bottom third for almost the entirety [/quote]Grants old squad pulled together for the first couple of months?? Nothing to do with Martin Taylor, Ched Evans, Mo Camara and Matty Pattison then. And for Norwich to avoid relegation last season was a magnificent achievement, or were you always confident that when we were bottom of the league, playing some of the worst football ever seen at Carrow Road, that Grant would get us out of the mess? Because he would have got us relegated without a doubt. Surely you cannot be so blind to see that Roeder did a good job last season?[/quote]He did the job I expected any incoming manager to do - Lift a mid-table standard team away from relegation, I honestly don''t think that was some kind of miracle.I''m not trying to kid myself, Norwich were and still are mid-table standard. Under GR we are unable to even achieve that position in the league, except for the initial string of results, GR seems incapable of lifting Norwich out of the bottom third, despite bringing in 22 players during his tenure

[quote user="city-till-i-die"]WITH A LOADED GUN....and chase him out of Norwich City fc [/quote]You mean we only get to have one gun between the 25000 of us?! I know it''s the credit crunch and all but can''t we have a few more, I''m not complaining though, I''ll be just as happy with a flaming torch and a pitchfork

[quote user="JJ"][quote user="Pboro_Canary"]Ah, the Jamie Scowcroft tranfer rumour surfaces again - this must appear every transfer window![/quote] Haven''t we been chasing him for several years now?  I''m sure Worthy was once after him. [/quote]Ron Saunders originally tried to sign him I believe

[quote user="Ex-greenoschin"]He is seriously pissing me off with the way he talks in the media about the fans lack of knowledge and why he can''t give credit to the likes of Lupoli after the game on Saturday, but............................. I still think he should stay, at the end of the day he IS more experienced than us (lol) I don''t want us screaming for a new manager every season with the crap budget we have to work with. So for now it''s an IN for me, just cut out the sarcasm( Roeder that is), doesn''t get to me personally but I can see that it will piss people off and he could do with the fans behind him. [/quote]More experienced at being an arrogant tw@t you mean, because he sure as hell knows  F/A about football!It''s a big fat out for me

The only string of results GR has achieved was with Grants squad of players, the more GR has tinkered the worse it''s all got, you could argue if it wasn''t for Grants legacy we would have been relegated for sure last season - fair dues to Grant - he performed a miracle [although we didn''t realise it] and saved us from relegation!

At Everton for 5 or 6 years if I remember correctly, also played for England B, was still playing in his 40''s so I guess there can''t be too many players around with that much playing experience under their belt

[quote user="Sir Daz"]Hello I think we should stick with him for the time being for the following reasons.. I think all managers deserve to be given a full season to show they can improve the team. If they cant improve the league position after a full season questions should be asked. Chopping and changing managers is rarely succesful and stable clubs often are succesful. Eg Man U, arsenal, charlton before they sacked curbishley v newcastle, man city etc. We will never progress if we have a new manager every season who has to start all over. He has bough some good players in, Bell is starting to look good as are clingan and hoolahan. Stefanovic looked class too. Our midfield is the best it has been for a few years. He has been hampered by injurys such as stevanovich & kennedy which has meant he has to play 3rd/4th choices at CB where a lot of our problems are. Also he has been hampered by suspensions although arguably team discipline is down to the manager. He has bought strikers in with premiership experience, leroy has done well and i''m not sure it is roeder''s fault that we tend to hoof it up to sibi''s head. He clearly is not that type of player. We are playing some good football, see wolves & s*****rs, although not often enough. we have been been unlucky in some games such as watford & reading away. Certainly some of the football is far better than seen under grant or the end of worthy or hamilton or even rioch. I also cant really acuse the team of lacking in effort in most of the games i have seen. He may not come across particularly well in the media. He may even be a complete ****, however i''m not sure that is so important . Fergie is a **** as is jose mourinho and even warnock. Give me roeder over warnock any day. The board will be well aware of the consequences of relegation, ie 10,000 less for every home game so will not hang on to him for the sake of it. He has good contacts in the premiership that will help sign players from there rather than the scottish div 1 like grant. Thats about it for the mo.
