It''s good to know though that the club were all geared up ready in case we were relegated.

Will we be able to get in a better keeper than Marhall?. We see Marshall in all his games and therefore any mistakes he makes are highlighted. All keepers make them and unless he is at the club you support then they are hardly ever seen.

[quote user="TheMarshmallowMonkey"][quote user="tribes"]Maybe you are right with regard to Ince being a right man to be here considering our having experienced GR, who I still believe is unique. The whole club does need a lift though and a manager who can do that from the off is badly needed.[/quote] I suppose that''s true. Ince would give the club a lift - perhaps that''s what we need. Someone to give us a bit of fight. Ince would do that. [/quote]As you said though it''s the other bits about him that might not sit well at this moment in time. We can never be sure about some of the things said about mangers'' behaviour at other clubs but often there is some truth there. They can change as Keane must do in some aspects of his behaviour ( for want of a better word ) at Sunderland. It''s all swings and roundabouts and I for one am not sure who I would really like to be here. Things can''t go on as they are though and feel that something drastic needs to be done and quickly.  

[quote user="TheMarshmallowMonkey"][quote user="lincoln canary"] alan pardew is then man to turn norwich around. has had success at every club he has been at although has had bad times aswell.  plenty of contacts in the game and knows how to wheel and deal. paul ince is not the right option, needs cash to be successfull and his man management techniques strike me as roeder the 2nd. [/quote] Alan Pardew isn''t a bad choice, I wouldn''t be disappointed if he popped up. Ince, for me, would be a bad choice. Yes, his profile would no doubt have the same effect on us as Keane''s has had at Ipswich, but there was a lot of talk of his archaic training methods, his stubborn and uncompromising attitude and his unfriendly attitude towards fans. Is that what we need to get us promoted? Personally, I don''t think so [/quote]Maybe you are right with regard to Ince being a right man to be here considering our having experienced GR, who I still believe is unique.

[quote user="blahblahblah"][quote]That is unfortunately very true. We can but hope, but through past experience I don''t hold out a lot of hope for them to miss one of the many " wrong ones".[/quote] That''s the trouble though - the wrong ones may have been right somewhere else before - only rarely does a managers'' performance conform to a pattern - for example - Warnock and McCarthy are good at getting top 10 positions in the championship, Roeder always gets teams relegated in the second season - oops.... [/quote]Yes. Just wish that the board had a target, someone who they had identified as being the one they wanted, without going through the prolonged interview process. That process identified Peter Grant as " standing head and shoulders above the rest". Chase identified who he wanted and picked good ones, he just made mess of other things. Evans has gone for Keane ( which may or may not be a success ), no messing about. Our board give impression of not having a clue and it''s a very good impression.

[quote user="city-till-i-die"][quote user="tribes"][quote user="FilletTheFishWife ."][quote user="koimatsuba"] Paul Ince would be to Norwich, what Keane is to Ipswich! Thats IMO! club need to be bold and this type of appointment is what is now needed unless we want 4-5 years + stuck in League 1. Now is not the time to Stay with Yellow blood just because of the costs, cut costs else where but not the team and the manager AGAIN. Doing that brought us to where we are now. Cheers, all.   (Feel better now I''ve said my bit! Before we all see the board muck it up again!) [/quote]   Paul Ince''s best achievements were in League 2 which might be appropriate for 2010/11 but how about a manager who was sucessful in league 1 (promoted QPR) and Championship (turned Plymouth into a force in the Championship - anyone at Home Park with me 10/11/2007 will vouch for that). Forget the blip at Leicester where Mandaric was pulling the strings and hiring and firing at will, the choice for me would be Ian Holloway. [/quote]Think Ian Holloway would also be a good appointment. There is not just one person out there who could do the job and therefore not one " right appointment".[/quote]on the flip side to that....there are plenty of WRONG appointments....and knowing our board we will get one of them [N][/quote]That is unfortunately very true.

[quote user="paul moy"][quote user="Hairy Canary"][quote user="whoareyou"] Croft, player of the season? Don''t make me laugh! It just shows how many clueless, deluded souls go to Carrow Road these days! [/quote] Or alternatively it just goes to show how unrepresentative of the rank and file supporters the members of this forum are. [/quote] True.   I am one of the small minority that never wanted Hucks to leave.   [/quote].and I am another but that number increased as more began to realise that GR was about to become a complete failure and the "new heroes" were not going to materialise.

Would be good appointment and would raise profile of this club. His success at MK Dons and Macclesfield in a short managerial career shows his ability at this level. Fear there would be the same initial resistance here to his appointment as there was at Ipswich to the appointment of Roy Keane.

Club said when I renewed that if we went into Div 1 then I could have 20% rebate. Never suggested at the time that I might be asked to waive it. Therefore will get 20% rebate. Do I feel guilty about taking it?. Answer: NO.

Our player of the season voted by the fans. Doesn''t say a lot for the rest of our players does it.

Sick and pathetic.

[quote user="TheMarshmallowMonkey"]Would rather have Tommy Miller. And he''s rubbish.[/quote]..and he''s probably going to Sheff Wed and better than anything we have got or are likely to get.

[quote user="The Duke"]i have just got off the phone to the ticket office they said "A letter will be sent out by the end of the month to all season ticket holders detailing how they can claim back 50%, 20% or 10% for the cost of their season tickets for next season." Not too sure what that means really.[/quote]If we want the rebate we will just follow the instructions then.

The reason I will be taking mine is because the club said when I renewed that there would be a 20% rebate if we went into Div 1. They did not intimate then that I would be asked to waive the rebate. To be fair they haven''t done so yet.

[quote user="Evil"]We can''t afford him and he wouldn''t want to manage a club with no money to spend on players. To be honest, there are more realistic (and better) options out there. Robins for me.[/quote]That could be our biggest problem, trying to attract a manager with a good track record who has no money to spend.

Would they go for Paul Ince?. High profile manager and had success with MK Dons and saved his first club Macclesfield. He is unemployed and not likely to get Prem League position due to not succeeding at Blackburn. Whether he would come here or not is another question. I think he would be good appointment having managed successfully in the division below and the high profile might just lift us as well. c.f Roy Keane over the border.

Very sorry to hear about your loss.

[quote user="england1966"]the reason he was sold... falling out with deehan... because of... (deehans daughter?)[/quote]That rings a bell.

" I would not have sacked Roeder" and "Delia is angry and will come out with all guns blazing" was enough for me. He is an utter prat.

[quote user="Rum ol boy"]When you look at the teams we have to play I don''t feel confident. The board, if they stay have to take a big gamble and put everything into appointing a better manager, bringing in a nucleus of young players to build on etc This will be a long, hard season....a dogfight in fact.[/quote]We need a Darren Ferguson but they are not easy to find.

[quote user="HookNortonCanary"] I honestly think the man could do a job. He played the transfer market a lot better than Roeder (and he only had 9 days or so). "Im in constant contact with Darren Huckerby" - Surely i bonus, if any other manager came in, they might not want him. as he said, "I failed this mission" he did - but, i think if he is appointed we all get behind him, he''s still Gunny and he deserves our respect and support if appointed. Its taken me till this morning to finally get to grips with what has been going on, and this is my views - feel free to bitch about them. [/quote]Would prefer someone else but would obviously back him if he got the job. Unlike GR who I couldn''t stand, he has my respect as a person and would get my support.

Hopefully he will be back in November and will still be a force to be reckoned with. With the new heroes not materialising he would certainly have added something this season.  

[quote user="Destort"]This is true, but it''s catch 22, can we afford not to sign him. The longer we site in that mire of a league, the less and less we get coming in.[/quote]Could not agree more.
