[quote user="daly"]Reason Shayne Long is on the bench because he is not up to it. Overated[/quote] Wouldn''t fancy him in the PL but I reckon in the Championship could do a really good job over the course of ten games.

If you could sign somebody on loan for the rest of the season who would it be? No doubt some will say Messi and Ronaldo but realistically I can''t think of a player who we could get and who would improve us. With Lewis G out injured I think we could do with a pacey striker to stretch teams. I would love us to go all out and pay a big loan fee for a Shane Long or Dwight Gayle as they seem to spend most of their time on the bench at their clubs but doubt very much that is likely to happen.

Just seen this article on the Evening News site. Maybe i''m old school but it''s embarassing that anyone would think we would need these. It''s the biggest derby day for years and if we can not create an intimidating atmosphere then we don''t deserve to win. The atmosphere for the 4-1 win was brilliant and hostile. A ground full of these things creates a family U21 match environment which is certainly not what we need on Sunday!! http://www.eveningnews24.co.uk/news/additional_train_services_free_goodies_and_the_police_all_you_need_to_know_ahead_of_the_east_anglian_derby_1_3973154

I should imagine there will be very little atmosphere then the announcer will do the usual countdown to OTBC which the Barclay and Snakepit will join in with but nobody else will. Then everyone will sit down moan about the season and how badly we are playing.  Occassionally we will sing OTBC as it''s all we sing now.  After 38 minutes the ground will be a third empty so people can skip the queues for a pint (myself included). The secong half will be played at testimonial pace, Arsenal will score a couple of straight forward goals.  The ref will blow for full time and the ground will be half empty for the thank you lap.  A few women will cry and smudge their make up and everyone will filter out silently. Same as every other week this season!

[quote user="Nicko"]What a disrespectful post. Get lost.[/quote] Nothing I have put is disrespectful. I''m not an Ipswich fan it''s just I hate this sight at football! I''m just putting it out there

[quote user="morty"]Going where tomorrow? [/quote] To the Next sale.  Good point I meant Sunday.  Oh well at least back in the Champioship this wont happen.  Back to 3pm Saturday kick offs which is far more suitable for my drinking routine!

For anybody going tomorrow that is taking their other half please when the inevitable happens don''t let her start sobbing helplessly in to her replica shirt! There''s nothing more embarrassing than a slighly overweight female in bad fitting jeans with tears rolling down her face as she contemplates Championship football.  It makes us look tinpot and any that do this should be taken on to the Kings Road and shot for bringing the club in to disrepute.  If it''s your missus that does it you should be hung from the top of the Castle (the pub on Ketts Hill)!!

Startred going in 1986.  My top 5 in order are 1. Darren Huckerby (No player has got me out of my seat with excitement as much as him). 2. Bryan Gunn (I played in goal and I used to love watching him play) 3. Ian Crook (just sheer class) 4. Grant Holt (A true talisman at a time the club need it most) 5. Chris Sutton (The year he banged in 20+ goals in the Premier League was probably the most consistent top class performance I have seen form a Norwich player)

[quote user="jas the barclay king"] I paid £85 for the White Asics away shirt, it came with tags and unworn... good luck finding that again!!!! It''s my pride and joy and I wear it at home games...   [/quote] Been looking for one of these for ages!!  Where did you find it?

5-1 away at Ipswich

It''s got to be Sutton for me.  Has scored more Premier League goals for us than anybody else in our history and it''s Premier League goals we need right now!

I''ve been going through the post about best Norwich goals seen live but what are the best you''ve seen live against us?  Not that I enjoyed them at the time but two stand out. Zola in an FA Cup replay away when he produced an outrageous back heel volley to beat Rob Green. Secondly in the dark Championship Days I remember the Preston captain who I think was called Gregan lobbing Andy Marshall from the half way line and leaving him looking like an idiot angled up in the back of the net.  Although not as big as an idiot as he looked every time he put on the shirt of those c***s down the road!

When my middle school football team won the league and went unbeaten all season he presented us with our trophies.  Great set of curtains!!!

Good question. For games I was at I would say mine are; Gossy at home to Bayern Munich. Jacksons third against Derby (neither of these goal were great strikes but both times they sent Carrow Rd beserk)! Steenos long range strike (Also Iwan in the play of final, surprised it''s not been mentioned more)

To the tune of you are my sunshine.  It''s a song that''s been sung for players before but with a twist so should be easy to pick up.  I dout it will take off but thought I would share and get peoples opinions. You are my Howson My Jonny Howson You make me happy when skys are grey So f#@k your Lampard and Stevie Gerrard Please don''t take my Howson away

I don''t think Holty could have done as well as Danny Welbeck did tonight. That''s not a dig at Holt just think welbeck played really well and held it up as well as anyone else could with not much support from midfield plus he turned their back four a few times with his pace.

[quote user="chicken"]Lambert is a man that appears to like risks. He took a risk in going to Germany to play football when he could easily have failed and found himself in a hard place getting back into British footie which happens sometimes. The thing is he strikes me as not only a hard worker but someone who will try anything to get a win in terms of tactics etc. For that I don''t see why he can''t improve Villa''s performances. I also think in a way he went at the right moment for him - not us nessisarily. He is on the back of three great seasons, next season will be tougher with so many teams wanting to splash the cash, the three promoted teams having healthy financial backing from their owners and the fresh buzz there will be from the Euro''s not to mention the difficulty of a second season. I think that was partly why Lambert wanted us to be unpredictable last season. However what I will say is that for me, at times he called it wrong. Some games he surrendered width to teams with quality wide players. He still has a lot to learn. Arguably next season will be a bit of a weird one because both Norwich and Villa stood a chance of finishing top half with him next season. The reality is though that the season after they probably have more about them to go on and push for that 6th spot where as I feel the reality for us is mid table for a couple of seasons so we can afford the new tier on the stand etc. As for a good fit, things change. Norwich needed Lambert and Lambert needed Norwich. Perhaps we have seen that Norwich needed Lambert more than he needed us but for those three seasons we were a perfect match. [/quote] this

I think an important factor next season is going to be how we as fans react to everything that''s happened. We were brilliant home and away last season but if we have a slow start next season I think there is a real danger of there being an unnecessary negative atmosphere amongst fans. I think the players will need us to get behind them even more than we did this year. No matter what happens and what managers/players come or go NCFC will always be here and the new manager will need the fans behind him more than ever no matter who he is. Clearly I''ve started the bank holiday with too many beers but had to get that off my chest. OTBC

Would love to see Culverhouse offered the chance to take the job but my gut feeling says he will be following Lambert to Villa. Good luck to him I say. Quality player for the club and has been brilliant the last 3 years. He knows a fair bit about managers leaving here for bigger clubs. The only goal I ever remember him scoring was the opener against Everton on Mike Walkers return. That was a quality night

I can''t believe I got them all. This was the first season my Dad started taking me.  I would have been 8 and I remember going to this match sitting in the old South Stand. Happy days. Did Everton win the league ar Carrow Road a couple of weeks later?

[quote user="barclaystand"]Bob the Grocer is Robert Chase.Or is it that Robert Chase is Bob the Grocer??? [;)][/quote]That''s what I thought.  However Robert Chase had long since left by the time Hamilton was boss.  In fact Hamilton was employed by Delia and MWJ.  Something tells me this story may be a little bit of a porky........

[quote user="TIL 1010"]Back in the dark days when Bob the grocer was Chairman i remember a meeting in his office attended by myself,Roy Blower and Keith Spanton from NCISA when the unrest concerning the manager Bryan Hamilton was discussed  and Bob said " make no mistake Bryan will take this football club to better times".Three days later we lost 2-0 at Portsmouth and Hamilton departed.[/quote]Am i being thick but who is Bob The Grocer???
