Nigel

I cant believe how gullible and niave you lot are towards the board. Ive only been on here a short time and have seen Arthur reply to people only for them to throw one sided abuse his way to defend the board, yet when he gets fed up and does the same he is at the centre of a witch hunt

[quote user="1st Wizard"] How have you all missed Davenport?, check theWest Ham messageboards!. http://boards.footymad.net/mboard/fmb.php?tno=551&fid=256&sty=2&act=1&mid=2132602049 [/quote] Davenport is a defender??? 

[quote user="lappinitup"] PURE DRIVEL !! I notice that everytime arthur squeeks wayne squeeks back in support. Anyway wayne, your lord and master has many wiews on all that''s bad at NCFC and he makes accusations, asks questions (of the board and to posters on this board) and slags off anyone who disagrees with him but.......... HE DOESN''T OFFER ANY SOLUTIONS !! He has proudly told us on other threads how successful he''s been with his business ventures (and all credit to him). So then WHY with his business accumen and professed LOVE of Norwich city doesn''t he simply by the club out ? Delia has gone on record as saying that she will sell to an investor as long as he has the club at heart so Arthur..........GET IN THERE !!  Then you will be my hero as well as waynes !!   [/quote] Maybe Arthur will put some potential soloutions in his next letter? I enjoyed both of them.

Just read it, spot on!

[quote user="blahblahblah"]Story here “I think you''ve seen the way that I have tried to balance the side and, obviously, he was going to be a big part of that - and it''s a massive blow. I''ve tried to base the team on him being there,” said Grant, with the Canaries understood to have offered the 6ft 3in midfielder a new contract last week that featured a 50% increase in wages only to find Roy Keane''s Premiership cheque book hoving into view. [/quote] Lets be realistic as this is just a rumour. Does anyone truely believe the board we have would offer to double a players wage? Not a chance in Delias Hells kitchen!

[quote user="jas the barclay king"] Reading is a small City that suffers from Geographical isolation and is without large financial Backing too. So are Pompey. Wigan is in the North west granted, but is in a rugby town with bigger clubs all around it. and yet all 3 of them have done very well thank u very much. If pompey can attract Kanu and cole to that Sh*t hole then whats stopping us? jas :) [/quote] Hit the nail on the head again Jas. well done mate.

[quote user="vicar in green and yellow"] I sometimes wonder if Wiz and Smudger are in fact one and the same person! Both liven the debate by posting nonsense [/quote] Most true.

[quote user="1st Wizard"] I ask because at first glance it appears to have ''morphed'' into a binners site!. Its a long time since I''ve seen so much hate and bile slung at the club on here. I don''t want a ''Yes Sir'' type site, but this is starting to get beyond the pale now. I go on many City messageboards, and they''re mostly very upbeat about City so why is this site so different?  Hmm? I''ve often thought there''s a few hidden agenda''s going on here, and if that makes me paranoid, so be it, but I''m not the one calling for demo''s to damage our club and morale am I? We''ve all had a go at the club before in some way, but some it seems do nothing else. Curious that!.[:(] [/quote] You started it off my friend.

Oh great your back!

Hi guys,             this is Nigel from the Norwich Gay Supporters Club. Starting this season we will be meeting for home games at the Catherine Wheel and also will be looking to arrange coach trips for away games. Anyones welcome to join us, look forward to seeing you all soon guys. Nigel N.G.S.C. Chairman

[quote user="1st Wizard"] A very short while a go I stupidly refered to our new goalkeeper Matthew Gilks as a ''Billy No Mark''. I have felt ashamed of my callous remark since them, it was a childish, ill-informed and a downright nasty post that I had absolutely no right to make. I can only offer my sincere apologies to Matthew and hope to God that if he does manage to read this, he can find it within himself to forgive an old tw*t and ''Billy No Mark'' of a poster. Welcome to your new Carrow Road home Matthew....................and the best of luck with your new City career. [/quote] make your bloody mind up for christs sake. 1 minute you constantly slag off norwich and the board and when they do something that justifys those sort of posts you defend them. How do you expect people to take you serious? I think some may have been right in the first place when they said you are a wind up merchant.

[quote user="blahblahblah"] Mr Tracey, CityAngel is capable of protesting, and was in fact one of the more vocal protestors in the Worthy Out movement.  [quote]So in your eyes if Norwich got relegated this year you wouldnt bat an eyelid because you claim to love the club and moaning would mean you didnt? [/quote] Can you honestly see Norwich getting relegated ?  Shall we wait until, let''s say March of next year to see if we really are in dire danger ? [/quote] So she slags off Whittle and co for wanting to protest making out that it means they dont care about the club, then we find out she was involved in the worthy riots-hypercite! I never said they would get relegated i said IF! Its called giving an example.

[quote user="cityangel"][quote user="Steve Burns"] The following was written after we had gained promotion to the Premiership - I don''t know who by , but it was in the EDP Those not of the football faith never will probably never understand just why it all means so much to so many people. The delirious scenes in Norwich city centre earlier this week, however, may just have drilled the message home that supporting Norwich City Football Club is about far more than football. It is about where we are from, a place of which we feel immensely proud – it is part of who we are. A woman I interviewed for this paper on the morning of the victory parade, her scarf weighed down with badges, said of her beloved club, “It''s my blood”. Thousands will relate to that. The idea of pledging your allegiance to some glamour club on the other side of the country simply because they are successful does not compute. Do all you moaners get it now ?   If not why not go away have a think about it and leave us who want to go and support OUR club alone - those who don''t go really have no right to moan. [/quote] Yes thousands will relate to that Steve and just reading that has made me feel emotional. It is our blood, its the club we love and its the club we''ll support through thick and then, and no Smudgers or Clucks or Arthur Whittles will ever make me feel any differently. [/quote] Do you think its because smudger/cluck and arthur whittle love the club and hate the way its being run is why they want to protest? So in your eyes if Norwich got relegated this year you wouldnt bat an eyelid because you claim to love the club and moaning would mean you didnt? Its in there blood and they feel passionate thats why they get so annoyed, maybe they are just more passionate than yourself,or maybe they can just see through the bull that comes out of the carrow road pr machine and you cant, if you openly admit you wouldnt protest no matter what. During the chase protests did you just stand there going "they cant love the club because they would stay quiet like me"? Are you saying everyone who was part of the chase protests didnt love the club? People show there love for clubs in different ways-yours to be honest will never see our club improve, and no im not totally against the board but can understand why people protest. What about all the people at leeds who went nuts when they got relegated did that mean they dont love leeds? Im behind the board for the time being but time will tell and i may just jump on the smudger/cluck/whittle bandwagon if things dont change and yes i do love the club. To support a club through thick and thin you have to stand up and be heard during the thick or you just let those in charge ruin your club.

[quote user="Strangers All"][quote user="Millo"] [quote user="Strangers All"]Smudge & his clucking horde aren''t untouchable!  Even Wiz has deserted the sinking ship...[/quote] The sinking ship that is norwich city football club??????????? [/quote] The slightly listing ship NCFC (gawd bless her) has been righted, the rot has stopped, and new hands are arriving daily, all under the stewardship of Admiral Delia and her good Cap''n Grant... pirates of the Championship ready to plunder the league!! Now are all hands on deck, or do we have some lily livered nancy boys that don''t support this escapade? [/quote] Delia and Doncaster have taken the only lifeboat and left us all to drown.

[quote user="Web Team - Celia Sutton"] Not a clue, i''m afraid - I''ll get someone to check on Monday. Sorry... Celia [/quote] will you leave a message on here monday then please celia as it looks like hes worming his way out of it. It was supposed to be last friday if memory serves me correct and he didnt even have the manners to apologise for failing to do so because of fridays transfer activity-what a rude man!

[quote user="JC"] Obviously nobody cares or they don''t believe me!  [quote user="JC"]I have it on good authority that Jurgen Colin has left Norfolk in a packed-up car.  I could give more detail but I am sure (as in the past) any more detail will be edited out by the mods![/quote] [/quote] We dont believe you, we think you are a wind up merchant and that you use numerous IDs to back up your own drivel.

[quote user="JC"] The problem with this view is that there is a fine line between passionate debate and stonewalling your opinions.  Cluck/Smudger/Whittle etc, who could all be the same person (look at the way their posts are time-wise...) in my opinion, do not debate, he/they stand in the corner of the playground and shout at people having conversations of their own.... Why would you be in your mothers skirt?  Why would anyone be in their mothers skirt?  Are we assuming she would still be in it and they are sitting at her feet (oh my god...) or possibly worse wearing it while she is out.... [/quote] Well if cluck/smudger. and whittle can be classed as the same person perhaps all those in favour of the board are the same person or work for the club? Of course they are not, its just another ridiculous attempt to make out they are in the minority by people who cant get there heads out of the sand. pathetic drivel. Notice  JCs posts timing with other board supporters mmmmmmmmmmm interesting? Could JC be using other IDs to support JCs own posts? Maybe you have turned this round and back on yourself pal!

Web team-can you shed any light?

Its all gone quiet. Wonder why?

[quote user="barclayendboy"]Honestly you lot do you think Earnshaw is going to agree to have his clause written out if it was him who insisted that it was written in ,and as for liverpool renewing contracts they are in a different ball game to us  players are hardly gonig to ask to leave such a big club as they are guaranteed premier football and champions league football . [/quote] Earnshaw was desperate to leave west brom so we should have negotiated better. he was the one seeking a move.

[quote user="a1canary"]I can''t believe all this squealing that''s going on over Earnshaw. Talk about hysteria! We''ve had plenty of posts saying we should sell him and plenty have said if we can replace him with two of Sharp/Eastwood/Cureton etc then they''d be ok with that. Yet when he goes all hell breaks loose. Yes the fee is disappointing but if you were Worthington and the board on deadline day last January, and we were where we were in the league back then, we were on the verge of signing him but he was holding back on the release clause, the vast majority would have let him have that clause. And i''m sorry but you can''t seriously sit there and say otherwise. But, lets play Sliding Doors for a second though, just to appease you. Suppose that Cluck, Smudger, Fram, Jas and co were on the board, (heaven help us), and had blocked the transfer of Earnie from WBA because of that clause. Now stop, and THINK for 1 second what the consequence of that would have been.  It was deadline day. Wizard was jumping up and down as usual that we had not signed anyone of consequence. Without Earnshaw, there is little doubt that we''d be in League 1 right now.  Then suppose it got out that we were seconds away form signing Earnshaw on transfer deadline day but our CLUELESS board blocked it because of a poxy little clause that allowed him to leave and us to recoup all we paid for him. And we were relegated. You''d all be stoned alive in the streets of the city!! Get some perspective people. We haven''t lost any money on him, we''ve got £3m to spend and we already have Cureton. [/quote] Hang on. In your post you slag off Jas the barclay king who  is one of the best and most respected posters on here. "cluck, smudger, fram, jas and co were on the board { heaven help us} " Well im just glad that you are not on the board mate as this would have been a bigger joke than it is. If they had this clause why was there no attempt to change it and if they did and earnshaw refused why not sell him for a bigger fee before the clause kicked in? I bet the football world knew of his clause, agents have a habit of making clubs aware of that { unless you seriously believe derby got lucky and bid exactly the fee to invoke the clause}, yet norwich played us for fools saying he would only leave for "silly money", and allowed people to renew season tickets in the belief that only a monster bid earnie would have left. The city board have taken the p@ss yet again. When people like Jas, Nutty nigel etc { who in the past have been against posts by people like Arthur Whittle,cluck,sumger, etc} are annoyed with how this has been done, people should start to realise that the best posters on here are even seeing the club for what it is, and its no longer the minority. The day of death yesterday has firmly pushed the board from somewhere in the middle to Mr Chase in my eyes now. Its exactly the sort of thing Chase was slagged off for so why should we let this board get away with what we didnt let him get away with? Selling the best players and fooling supporters at the same time and bringing in much cheaper replacemnets was chases trademark and it pains me to say we have gone back to that way.

[quote user="Wayne Gardner"] Liverpool today announced that Mommo Sissoko had signed a new contract to fend of potential buyers after less than a year with Liverpool. Now my point is that this is standard practise. You sign a player on whatever grounds needed to get them there in the first place and then review the contract to get rid of clauses that could see the player leave, offer him a new deal without clauses {maybe a few extra quid or bonuses} and the player is there to stay unless you accept a bid. The Norwich cirty board has today failed us. Norwich city board you disgust me and show little respect to your fans who you pass off as thick inbreds. If protests happen, they only have themselves to blame. [/quote] says it all, about the crap set up at ncfc

[quote user="ncfc1"]But Earnshaw had probably told the club he would be off weeks ago , we would never have been bidding for Varney and Sharp in the first place unless Earnie was off.[/quote] another cheap replacement knowing our crap board.

[quote user="jimmy500"] With the exception of look east everywhere else is saying that the fee is undisclosed.  I bet it is only a fraction of the 800k being touted about. The board may lie, spin and lack ambition but they aren''t mugs.  And only a mg would spend 800k on a 32 year old.   [/quote] Only a mug would let our biggest assist have such a clause. They have lied to us again.

[quote user="Chippy636"] Is there anybody left out there that just goes week in and week out to carrow road to support their team? I''ve just bought my first season ticket and although I would love to see city in the prem I''d feel just as proud owning that ticket If we were in the conference. I do think its stupid to slap a clause thats only 500k over what we payed for earnie but, honestly I have never been a broker of muti-million pound transfer deals or a chief-exec of a large football club, so what do I know? As for protesting, forget it, I''ll be there at the first game cheering on which ever 11 turn out. thats what fans do.   [/quote] Yes we are fans and the 1st thing you think is to support your team, but how else do you let the board know we wont let them get away with it? By attending games they win again. Protest, boycott, whatever it takes to get through to the idiots that run OUR club.
