  1. Sorry, looks like it''s not working in Chrome
  2. [quote user="Wazzy van Donkeydangler"] They''ve hired a taxi for the first game, but may increase it to a minibus if there is enough interest. [:D] [/quote]
  3. [quote user="FramCanary"] OMG! Take a look at this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cCrRpHgZU0Q [/quote] 2nd Goal is against Norwich isn''t it [:D]
  4. "we are doing EVERYTHING “by the book” and in a true and proper manner" - let''s just hope Robbie Cowling is not reading this [;)]  
  5. [quote user="Nexus_Canary"]Wiki seems to think so. [/quote]   You do realise that it can be updated by anyone with a computer...and for football players at transfer time, usually by 12 year old boys wetting themselves over who might be coming to their club
  6. [quote user="Crispy"]Its been mentioned again In the afternoon on @transfersSSN. "Byram to Norwich looking likely"[/quote]That''s where Vital Football got it from, and it''s a fake account.  Look at the other posts...   https://twitter.com/TransferSSN   It even tells you it is ''fiction'' on the description!
  7. [quote user="Jimmy Smith"]shelvey was linked [/quote]   Glad we didn''t get him... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNczMDWbgGo  
  8. People are talking about signing a new striker and defender, but I''m surprised that people are not talking about what Wolfswinkel said in March, when he signed... "The club is in the middle of the table and has a lot of ambition. During the summer they will become even stronger. "The plan is to bring in a midfielder and two wingers in the summer."   http://www.tribalfootball.com/articles/van-wolfswinkel-reveals-norwich-want-two-wingers-and-midfielder-3897121    
  9. I can access it.  Some try from a different device (like mobile) and it works
  10. (other people have also had problems with it today)
  11. you have to click where it says: ''Click here to access the WotB Message board.''
  12. [quote user="SYG"]With what attitude?? No one has even heard a word from Ola, who knows what has been said or going on behind the scenes. He might want to ce here but his agent is holding things up etc. Some people are so quick to judge, jump on the bandwagon[/quote]   Remember all the talk before Hucks signed...   Phil Smith had told BBC Radio Norfolk: "His loan finishes in December, it ends there. I don''t think any team in Division One could afford him First Artists Corporation''s Phil Smith "Three months and that''s it, any longer was never really an issue. "Darren is a player with Premiership aspirations and unless the club can guarantee him Premiership football then he''s never going to stay - that dictates everything. "And unless they are playing Premiership football then they won''t be able to afford him. "I don''t think any team in Division One could afford him."   I guess Huck''s attitude wasn''t good.  He only wanted the money from the Premiership!!!!   How is this different?  In both cases it is only stories going around, agents, etc. - nothing from either player.
  13. It''s probably going to be a ''Norwich City XI'' as opposed to the first team  
  14. [quote user="ARCHIEGEMMELL"]...Why can''t you guys just accept that Holt''s playing days in a Norwich City jersey are diminishing the longer we stay in this division?? [/quote]Why can''t you make do with your posts on the other thread on this same topic.Plain and simply, it doesn''t give you enough attention.
  15. [quote user="ROBFLECK"]Great signing for them...when is there be some concrete news of a Norwich signing...? I wouldn''t have minded him at FCR! little frustrating whatching other teams sign players...[/quote]We can sign our targets yet as Paulinho and Busquets are still in South America.....either that or this is the time that players all go on their holidays, so that''s why we are not signing people.
  16. I see him as I saw Iwan at the end of his time at Norwich.  A great servant for the club, but not as good as in his peak - but would still love to see him in the squad as he does more for the team than just score goals.  By this I mean both on and off the pitch.  I think that they should have kept Iwan on longer for his presence in the team, and the club went on to regret it.  I feel the same now, we should keep him - he''s definitely worth more to us than another team would pay us for him.  We may have found a new goal scorer in RvW, but we need to keep Holt until we find a new leader for the team.
  17. I like October, the game is definitely going that way
  18. [quote user="ncfc4eva"] the banter with the man city fans.. ''Weve got Abramovich you''ve got a drunken b*tch'' to which we replied ''we''ve got a supercook you''ve got a Russian crook'' haha[/quote]Think you mean Chelsea fans [;)]My favorites were:Moroccan all over the worldWe love you Paul McVeighYou must have come in a wheelchair - when Wimbledon visited while the Jarrold Stand was being built.  They only sold 10 tickets (plus a few comps), so they were put in the disabled areaSack your agent, sack your agent, sack your agent Huckerby - after his agent came out saying Hucks is too big a player for Norwich and we couldn''t afford himA mention has to go out to the last game at Reading''s Elm Park (sorry not at Carrow Road), where Fleck was given a very warm welcome, but was memorable for the ''On the pitch'' chant that was being conducted by policewoman in front of us.
  19. [quote user="City1st"]Gary Doherty is not foreign[/quote]He was born outside of the UK, has a passport from a non-UK country, and he played at International level for a country outside of the UK.  If that doesn''t make him foreign, what is the criteria?
  20. I also like the summary on this page... http://www.thegrindstone.com/2013/05/23/work-life-balance/emma-way-bicyclist-fired/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+b5media%2FTheGrindstone+%28The+Grindstone%29 "The lesson here is not “watch what you tweet,” although, obviously, do that. The lesson is “don’t hit cyclists with your car, and if you do, stop and help like a human being.”"
  21. [quote user="Sons of Boadicea"]Thought the young lady in question did herself no favours on Look East last night, clearly coached by her brief (I looked in my rear view and assessed the situation). I think what your examples show is that it is very important to think before you tweet, FB etc....... [/quote]I noticed that.  Before speaking to the solicitor it was "definitely knocked a cyclist off his bike earlier", after finding out that she could be convicted of diving without due care and attention, failure to stop and failure to report an accident - which would likely result in a lengthy ban - she speaks to a solicitor and it becomes "I stopped the car, looked in the rear view mirror and assessed the situation...I did not see the cyclist fall off his bike"
  22. [quote user="chicken"]Those totals are a bit off.[/quote]It has also been reported that our total spending on transfer fees for the last 5 years is £17m
  23. Interesting to see that Norwich have a higher net spend on transfers than West Brom, Tottenham, Fulham, Swansea, Wigan, Everton, Reading, Newcastle and Arsenal over the last 5 yearshttp://transferleague.co.uk/league-tables/transfer-league-table-last-five-seasons.htmlAlthough, gross, only Reading have spent less - but not surprising as we were in League 1 for some of that.
  24. Right now I would have to say Carroll.  I think RVW looks good from the clips that I have seen, but I haven''t seen him play myself (probably like most of the people on here), also Carroll is proven in the PL.  When he plays, everything goes through him.Saying Carroll does not mean I don''t rate RVW highly.  RVW looks to have the potential to be one of the greatest signings for Norwich.  Maybe as influential to the team as a Huckerby or Ashton, but how many technically excellent players in Europe have failed to make it over here?  It''s a different style of game and so it is a big risk - which is reflected in the price.  We are lucky that we are now in the situation that we can take that chance.  I just hope he can adapt quickly and make a success.
  25. [quote user="GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary"] bit concerned that we''re letting peoples contracts run out without getting any transfer fees?....when was the last time we recouped any transfer money ?? [/quote] How much do you think we would get for these if they had 1 year left on their contract? I think we would get 1-200k for tierny & ward and probably 3-400k for jackson, and that would probably be it. It may even be the case that the club have been trying to offload some of them but no one was interestedin paying, so they let their contracts run out. I don''t think that we need to worry too much about getting a transfer fee for every leaver as that amunt of money is about the same as finishing 1 place higher in the PL!
