    I''ve been a Canary since 1981 and this is so difficult that I''ve come up with 3 teams but only one manager ans subs as that''s my first choice!

            Roberts Sutton
    Huckerby Crook Bellamy Barham
    Jackson Watson Bruce Bowen
                      Woods
     
    Subs:- Keelan, McKay, Townsend, Channon (super sub), Robins (remember the opening game of the season against Arsenal)
     
    Manager:- Walker (first time)
     
                    Robins Ward Fleck
                     Fox Goss Gordon
    Butterworth Linnigan Needergaard McKay
                            Keelan
     
                  Peters Drinkell
    Eadie Townsend Williams Channon
     Drury Newsome Walford Hareide

    A few weeks ago I believed we''d end up between 8th and 13th, I hope we go up a lttle higher than 13th.

    I think Jim will be out of a job next season, ipstwit are 7th and I don''t think Marcus Evans will be too happy with his manager''s behaviour of late.

    7rew thats a good post, I''ve intended writing a similar post for a few weeks. My feeling and belief (rightly or wrongly) is that loan players were a wiser option than buying players for various reasons:-

    1. In January threre were no guarantees that we''d escape relegation. I''m sure some players wouldn''t come, no matter how good a manager they thought Roeder is. I believe they wouldn''t want to sign given the fact we were still in the mire and I''m sure their wife or g.f. would say if Norwich get relegated ''Will we want to move and then find you want to be playing for a Championship side or higher next season and then we''ll have to move again?''

    2. Maybe? the club and Roeder agreed it was better to go for loan players rather than sign them on 2 or 3 year contracts, just incase the worst case scenario happens and then find players who had signed in January wanted to leave in the summer

    3. If Roeder shows and has shown the way he can turn around a club just with loan players, players will be more likely to sign for us next season whether its full time or on loan when they can see what he has achieved.

    PS If Reading get relegated their loan players might not want to go back but ask if they can move to us - just a thought

    Yellow hammer, you''ve just beaten me to it, you''re correct that''s the jist of what I was saying. However, if we beat ips and with the top 6 not being particularly strong, the good news is that I personally feel if we end up above ips, beat Stoke and others in the Top 6 we could end up not in the ''playoffs''. So many top 6 teams have to play each other taking points away from each other - hopefully drawing while we......... I hope people read between the lines.......................

    Hi Ralph,

    I wasn''t quoting Glenn''s exact words, its just that most on here don''t like the word ''ipswich''.

    Hi luckygreentrousers

    I agree with you.

    The leaders this season have been woeful, the best teams who are promoted average 2 ponts a game. The leaders are averaging about around 1.8 points a game and we''ve yet to play some from the top 6. I still believe............
