Canary Pirate

I was having a dream, it was the first game of the season, Neil Warnock was our manager and we were losing 0 - 4 at home to Colchester and NW was going absolutely ballistic, waving his arms, pointing, shouting, foaming at the mouth etc etc. Colchester then took a long throw, Nelson cushioned a header ( no, I don''t understand that bit either ) back to Theoclapalot who somehow managed to let the ball through his fingers for a classic own goal. NW could not contain himself any longer, ran onto the pitch and barged Theo into the goal, he was promptly apprehended by two stewards, and then.............................I woke up ! What happened next ???

3 - 3 ( Norwich 3 - 1 up with 10 mins left - let in two soft goals, then.....................lose on pens after a crappy period of extra time )

Give in ! ...............we need every penny we can get ( even if it is a mickey mouse cup )

[quote user="Graham Humphrey"]What about if we draw them in the Paint Pot...? [/quote] He will back us again once they have thrashed us for a second time ! [:D]

Thats the oldest trick in the book. I lost count last season the number of managers and players who backed us to stay up and assured us we were in no danger. Sorry PL when you''ve been tonked 7 -1 it sounds a bit silly. No chance of  us being lulled into a sense of security this time round !

[quote user="Shyster"]To be honest, if I had my way I''d nuke the whole of the middle-east. [/quote] Very reassuring to know that extreme lunatics still live on the planet !

Don''t expect too many on here to think of that longer than a milisecond before they completely forget about how lucky they are and continue their ( enough said ) ???

[quote user="Shyster"][quote user="Canary Pirate"][quote user="Smudger"] [quote user="gazzathegreat"]Okay, it probably shouldn''t have happened but can you really blame them Jas? All of us have feelings and there is a point where we all snap and say enough is enough. What surprised me is how well behaved city fans were yesterday considering the circumstances. To be honest with you if I were 20 years younger and sat in the City Stand I would have done the same. As you say the Crewe occasion we were invited, but yesterday was a spur of the moment decision by two fans who simply couldn''t take anymore. They may or may not be banned. Who can tell what the final outcome is. But I can guarantee they will have made their point to the management and the board. On that alone, they should be applauded.[/quote] Maybe they should arrest and charge me then also Gazza. I was on the pitch by myself the game we qualified for the play-offs (Stockport @ home), when I ran over and gave Gary Holt a hug. No violoence was used by these two yesterday and no threats were made as far as I am aware. People like Jas who believe every word the Media says are so anal it is untrue.  What is so illegal about entering the field of play in a football match Jas.  You are the kind of individual who makes this world such a passionless souless place to live in these days. Answer me this Jas... wasn''t the view of any supporter being found to enter the field of play instrumental in some of the deaths that occured on April 15th 1989 when fans trying to save their own and others lives were seen as scum and ordered back in to a packed enclosure? [/quote] You are getting real desperate now Smudger, you are trying to dig up as much as you can where there is no like for like comparison to justify what these two guys did ! Whatever you say, they broke the club rules and you know it ! We can''t take the law into our own hands !   [/quote] Christ I despise people like you - Lily-livered baseless f*ck-headed liberals who are the ruination of this country. What those two guys did indeed - what did they do, perform an act of terrorism? Enter the country illegally and commit rape or murder an innocent? The kinds of instances that you liberals all too often turn a blind eye to and even justify! Get back down your hole. [/quote] Oh, Shyster you are too kind. Where I live the Light Dragoons have fighting in Afghanistan for the likes our freedom and every day I have to pass the gates where there are flowers tied to the railings for those who have lost their lives, and for what, the likes of those two plonkers who deemed their cause so important they had to ( well enough said on that ). I suggest you open your eyes to the reality of life !!!

All of the people who broke the rules of Crewe Alexandra FC on the final day of our promotion season, should they be banned also, or simply banned from Gresty Road???  [:^)] [/quote] That is not a fair question and you know you can''t compare the two. If trouble had flared at Gresty Road  and supporters were in danger then any troublemakers would hopefully have been picked up on camera and dealt with accordingly ( but presumably this was not the case ). What happened yesterday was not some over exhuberant celebration but two supporters making an illegal demonstration using threatening behaviour ( I certainly wouldn''t have liked being confronted by them. [/quote] Did you hear them threaten anybody? No?  Neither did I. [/quote] Your havin a laugh ! By the looks of the pictures they are saying " Would you like a cream cake ? " You don''t have to say anything to act in an agressive or threatening manner. May be they wanted a dance with Gunny ??? [/quote] What so they are breaking the law now for telling Gunny he is a crap football manager and throwing their season ticket in his direction? I told Gunny pretty much the same stuff the day after we were relegated.  You are obviously are far too young to remember a world with any passion in it??? [/quote] Don''t you just love it when people make assumptions ! I''m 52 so do I have to assume you are a child ??? They are breaking the club rules ffs ! And don''t tell me I have no passion. And....... at the next home game I am expecting you to run up to Gunny and ( if you have a season ticket, throw it in his direction ).....yeah, as if you would ! [/quote] I am not stupid enough to of purchased a season ticket to watch the dross they consistently churn out at Carrow Road. Gunny knows exactly what I think of him and if I bumped in to him the City tomorrow then I would be telling him that "we are still polishing up his trophy for worst football manager in NCFC''s history, when would he like to come and pick it up." [/quote] Well, all I can say is I am glad I am one of the stupid 19,000 ticket holders, with morals and who believes in abiding by rules and the law as opposed to...well....goodnight Smudger !

We can only dream of your suggestions. We''ve been a joke for so long now, the going to work thing doesnt apply anymore, if it did I think I would reply that in years to come I can tell my grandchildren I was there at the game when history was being made ! [;)][:D]

I remember Theo diving to his left and saving one low down in second half, cant remember the other.

[quote user="fearofambition"]Well the 19''000 odd season ticket holders that is. The most gutless, apathetic, easily pleased set of supporters in the whole of england. Truly embarrasing. Well done to each and every one of you. Amazing only two people finally saw the light and did the right thing. Guess it''s a start. Top marks lads. Thankyou, that is all.[/quote] No, thank you ! from a season ticket holder. It takes guts to support the crap we''ve been dished up for the past four years. But I''m not going to stop going after 42 years, thats what I do and thats my choice, you do..............whatever.

[quote user="Rupethebear"]Looks like these 2 lads may pay a huge price for demonstrating. They had the courage to do what many others thought about. If they get fined I will gladly pay the first £20, any other takers who will help sponsor their fines??[/quote] Looks like these 2 young men may pay a huge price for taking the law into their own hands and using threatening abusive behaviour against, who ??? They were stupid enough to do what thousands of others thought would be a good laugh but would never actually do in a million years. NO they can pay their own bloody fines !!!

He failed to accept just why they did what they did.......poor of you Gunny it was your debacle too.......and I WAS one of your supporters on appointment. You have let us all down, after all, YOU are the man in charge, and I''M disgusted that you fail to recognise that these two persons actions were just what 18.5 thousand other supporters wanted to do.....NCFC a bloody disgrace.[/quote] Honestly, where is your evidence for this???  [:$] [/quote] Local press were saying after the game they were both arrested. It is now on local press sites (Including EDP) that they will appear in court tomorrow and are likely to receive lifetime bans from Carrow road. Unfortunately for these two lads it''s likely to be an expensive gesture.Going onto the pitch during play has a pretty standard outcome in courts loss of season ticket £300 Likely fine £500 + costs 3 year banning order from all grounds Have to appear at local police station / hand in passport when England play away And worst of all a very good chance they will lose their jobs. [/quote] That will explain why so many people applauded them but wouldn''t actually do it themselves. Those two probably feel complete plonkers now.

[quote user="Ex Norwich Resident"]Not really, we made one when we beat Leamington 9-1, and we had a promotion at the end of that season... ;) Hoping this will be a best seller in the Norwich area, you can throw them at Gunn next time.[/quote] Leamington ??? Was that worth a dvd ? [:)]

[quote user="SpanishCanary"] I applaud them 100 percent true heroes, no fear. Wish i had the guts to show my pent up frustration for ''''shambles'''' FC. Mushroom and Tribes, you are the minority, and surely the idiots, caryy on happy clapping. You know it was only 4 years ago i saw us beat Man U. Now there was paiion and pride there. Now we have none. Players that want to play for NCFC, and complementing the stewards???  Gunn you are a tool!!! [/quote] WE GOT RELEGATED 4 YEARS AGO !!!  Its called cherry picking one game !

Suggests they think they have peaked and its all down hill from here. They clearly don''t think there will be a promotion one to make ! [:)]

Still here supporting the club through thick and thin [:)]

Equally as insulting, replying to my post as " Don''t be so wet " what a major contribution to a discussion !

[quote user="Scooby"] [quote user="Canary Pirate"]I admire many people in life and Delia is one of them. I also applauded at the end of the game from the Jarrold stand but was applauding  Colchester who played very well in what must have been an intimidating atmosphere. Unfortunately, the only players that were intimidated were ours, Colchester showed a mental toughness and togetherness that was completely missing from the hapless canaries.[/quote] I''m sorry?? Intimidating atmosphere?? The Jarrold has certainly never been intimidating and from my seat in the Barclay most people were too stunned to offer any antagonism towards Colchester.  As for them playing well?  What a loads of crap!  We gifted them 4 goals and then capitulated!  It did not take a team that played remotely well to beat us. [/quote] When the teams came out of the tunnel I would have said it was a pretty intimidating atmoshpere. You can only beat whats put in front of you and even against a team of shite it still takes something to stick seven past them ( hence why it doesn''t happen very often ). You still have to have players in the right place to stick the ball in the net therefore I stand by my comment that Colchester played very well.

[quote user="Lord Flashheart"]Thanks CP! I admit I''m not overly familiar with the rules. [Y] So these two lads broke the law but that''s ok because they were being ''passionate'' and had a point to make. Is that how people see it? [/quote] I''m sure that is excactly how people see it, but as a supporter you just can''t do that. If you condone this behaviour you might aswell allow dirink on the terraces, sit where you like, allow all sorts of verbal abuse resulting in anarchy on the terraces. I will reiterate when you purchase your season ticket you agree to abide by the club rules.
