I actually havent found myself jumping out of the seat screaming obsenities at a Norwich player since Zemma Abbey !!Only difference is Abbey pi$$ed off quickly Doc is like a bad fart and is still lingering.

[quote user="Captain Controversy"] and the ever reliable Doc. [/quote]This one will gain some heat...*sigh*Doc is a liability there i have said it

he also has a ''tude on him to rival Bellers hence he isnt still in the Green and Yellow ;)

Well lets be honest about things. Rodent pretty much screwed this season and most of our money has gone towards various loan players. I knew something was very seriously wrong when Huckerby departed. Sure we shouldnt hark on about it but he is our modern day Icon and that was a slap in the face to all the families and fans that this club seems to be vesting all of its interest in. Why Delia fought so hard to sign him and didnt just over rule rodent is beyond me ! The journey man loan signings in the last few years has become something of a joke and its sickening to see our club filled with kids or mercenaries who want money over football. How many of these loan signings can put hand on heart and say they give a damn about Norwich City ? If we are going to invest in kids make it ours. Ok, we dont have any cash for players but we have wasted this on some of the loan transfer fees. Id sooner give our youngsters a run out than relly as heavily on loan''s as we have in the last few years. Of all the loans we have bought in perhaps only Grounds, Evans and Taylor have actually been worth it. Now I think its time for us not to lose perspective. I turned on the Sky yesterday after a long trip back to Norwich thinking, Ok... we will have beaten Preston. If not.. then im reserved to consider and perhaps accept that we will be in Division 1 next season. Looking at the league there is not a lot we can do really. If we are lucky we can hold on but this will take a lot of resolve from our players, who truely do they really want it ? Gunn.  what have we got to lose ? The apointment of Gunn really was a gamble and I think many of us realised this at the time. We had 2 options and a reality to face. The reality was / is : We are a club with no money, waning reputation who are proping up the championship. Option 1 : Bring in Rodent mark 2. Aka: A manager looking to rebuild his reputation by saving a club but also exacting his will Option 2 : Allow an unknown to pick up the pieces with a view to replace at the end of the season Maybe relegation will be a good thing. It will seperate the men from the boys and perhaps some of the mercenaries will get lost and leave us with players who want to be at Norwich and want success for Norwich.I think the biggest crunch at Norwich will be post season.Do we keep Gunn on or appoint someone else ?Surely relegation will result in the cook leaving the club as pressure will surely be too much.I used to support Delia until i saw her cooking show. I was watching an episode when she was opening a cafe or w/e for Jon Peel''s daughter.The girl had ribbons up and explained to Delia " The green and Yellow is for Norwich and the Blue is for Ipswich" Delias response of " Oh yes you cant forget Ipswich" made me swell with rage. Her response should have been a blatent " Take that blue S**T down or you can get someone else to open your damn bistro !! "

It field 10 men before i put Doc in the team to be honest

I dont rate either of the Jarvis to be honest.Bally Smart is to small imho, he will get smashed off the ball in the Championship... id been out of the country for years when i returned my first game in 3 years was Vitesse Arnham... i honestly thought Smart was a mascot at first

yeh HelvegAnd stikers we have had a plethora of crap onesBrown, Thorne, Robert Fleck when he came back from Chelsea, Zemma Abbey, Jamie Cureton first time around, arguably the second also, Libra, Nielsson (just cos he buggered off when he was getting good ), Didnt we sign Tony Cottee or someone similar only for them to take a management job within the month or something ? my memory fails

LOL the Gunn bit is prolly personal to be fair ;)Enough said there.. lolI think i got Svensson confused actually... who was the Scandinavian national team capt we landed who got no starts ? Thats who i meantMcVeigh i never really rated

GunnLuis Jean    Doc    Svensson      BrennanJarvis       Molby       Jarret       McVeigh   Fleck ( round 2 )     Abbey

Im sure smudger and cluck went.

Great thats just great !! :(Im a pie shop owner. My profits are going to take a 75% nose dive nowGREAT ! :(

Think it was a big name panic to be fair.I think playing Hartson from the get go vs Watford was a bad idea. Hes unfit, it shows and he had a run out of 45 + minutes after playing for 30 48 hrs previously. He showed hes usefull vs the scum so I think people are being a little unjust. Think we should try to get him fit and then see, maybe continue giving him 10 - 30 mins here and there at the end of game, but he shouldnt be anywhere except the bench right now.

How about doing a last 10 years XIIcos the mentions of Green, Etuhu, Safri, Francis, Ashton & Earnie are just gonna piss us off and remind us "what could have been"Only one who had an excuse to leave was Green cos he more than paid his dues and proved he was Green and Yellow.

Just to add to my previous post im talking more about player mentality than positional. I agree we need a attacking midfielder we lost 3 good ones over the last couple of seasons. And to be honest none have been properly replaced.Anyone else get the feeling that Grant went about the transfer market thinking.. Oh, Rusty and Curo were good lads, fun to have a beer with, ill bring them back.Surprised we didnt see Andy Marshall (and any number of others )  re-apear from obscurity.

well Francis was great but when he knew we were going down he was the first person to go head down and then jump ship.Someone like Francis is the last person we need right now.What we need is another Dion Dublin type who has been there done that and just wants to play football. But hopefully get a guy under 30.Id be willing to consider any number of Prem / top table Championship reserves who want to proove themselves and work hard.

Well it wouldnt have been John HeartsonOr your headline would have been " Roeder missing, presumed eaten "

Get Hartson fit and I think we can get something out of him, I agree with Smith though.. he just looks like Bentley mark 2 without the tallent.

Our defence has always been crap !Thats just defeatist to be fair, I agree we are not a very good squad at the moment.But i think we will stay up.

[quote user="Branston Pickle"]I fully expect the mardy negative side of people to be out after tonight''s setback, but being honest, we all know that Watford currently look like a total shoe-in for promotion even at this early stage so were we really expecting anything from the game?  IMO the honest answer is ''no'' - particularly after the players gave their all barely 48 hours ago (but that is another thing altogether). For me, the games against Watford aren''t really the ones we need to be looking at to get points - though of course any that come along would be fantastic - it is the games against the lesser sides (eg Blackpool, Plymouth) which will decide what we are going to do this season, as they are the ones we are likely to be competing against when push comes to shove.  Roeder will have now had a good chance to see what we are capable of in terms of good play (Ipswich) and slack play (tonight), and will have also seen the players in training for almost a week - so will now be much more aware of what he needs to get in.  It is after the next few games that we should judge what, if any, progress we have made.  [/quote]Top post.Seriously, top of the league with the best away form in the Championship. The Trolls / Binner fans will be constantly reminding us how bad today was and be gloating over the fact we lost, and gloating at all the Percy Postives acting like we did the tripple after the scum game.But seriously, we ran out 48 hours after probably one of the best East Anglian derbys in the last 20 years and one of the best fight backs in recent history considering the circumstances and the previous form of the team.I think everyone has to remain positive and take something from today. We have now scored 1/3 of the seasons goals under Roeder which for 48 hrs is pleasing for me.Best thing is to keep our heads high and remind ourselves that we can turn things around.OTBC

[quote user="dugh"] ... so that''s 3 goals in 48 hours. How does that compare to the previous 48 days?[/quote]For real ! Whats that this season ??? 9 in total now ?Well... thats 1 / 3 of our goals under Roeder in the last 48.Complain all you want but for me Im still feeling a damn sight more positive than i was last week.

[quote user="ricky knight"][quote user="Branston Pickle"] [quote user="canari francais"]The fact is that,if QPR and Cardiff score in the next 45,we''re going to to be so far off safety it''ll take a miracle to survive...even at this stage.[/quote] Utter crap - how on earth can you write anyone off with 30+ games to go?  The negativity of some people really does defy belief.  [/quote] How is it crap, after tonight we are in real trouble, we need two wins on the spin to get out the bottom three, thats easier said than done. i would take 4th from bottom now, thats being realistic not negative. [/quote]Well we gotta start somewhere, and we were against the top team who have the best Away record in the league.To be fair, we got a goal !Just think, under Grant that coulda be 5-0, so heads up and OTBC !

Well i prediced 3-1Only i said to Norwich.... next week ill predict a 6-0 against us :)

CROFTYCROFTY2-1OTBC !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[quote user="dugh"]At least the scum are 1 down. Take heart.[/quote]must admit that did put a wry grin on my face when i heard that

[quote user="MPR"]You mean we''ll come back to draw 2-2?[/quote]Thats what was implied
