Well done Smudger. Its the right decision and you deserve some credit.

Just had that name thrown at me - cant see where he would fit in, but my source seems confident.

[quote user="we8wba"] i cant believe how split you fans really are there seems to be two sides for one side i mean its not just the board in dismay its the fans n all at the moment i know not every fan will agree on the same point, you never will get everyone agreeing but 70% want protest stopped 30% want it on so many want youth to come through, so many want experience so many all they do is moan saying blah blah we relegated, so many actually trying to encourage the team if you all pulled together on the right decisions you will give the team, club, board the boost they need i think only thing you lot would all agree on is what n idiot i am, but hell im probably the only one talking realistically, sensible on here half the time [/quote]If somebody had Effed up Wolves to the extent that we have been destroyed, your support would be pretty angry too. The previous chairman was vilified, with good reason, and the levels of violence when he was at his nadir, were huge. Believe me, it would have frightened wolves. I personally disagree with the protest, I prefer to think it will all iron itself out, as the board position is now untenable. Support? 25,000 average gates to watch the sort of crap we have for 3 seasons? You may find this hard to understand, but we happen to think our club is better than most/all of the dross we encounter and lose to on a weekly basis, and our support is there for all to see. its not for you to be satisfied with 24th place for Norwich City. -
Graham Paddon....What was he like?

Even Robert Chase didnt ban protestors. If the Smith junta followed this course of action imagine the national coverage? As ive stated before, i loathe the board and all their works, however, i feel that the wheels are now turning inexorably towards a change, there is too much strength of feeling and most people have their eyes open now. The protest has become a focus point for all types of nastiness, and i feel that everybody needs to take a big step back. . -

charlies dad replied to can u sit down please's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Im pretty sure he must feature in the 100 best City goals dvd, he scored some absolute beauties. One free kick against Manchester City from just inside the Man City half. Heavy ball of course, it dipped, swerved, twisted over all the players heads before beating Joe Corrigan all ends up. Fantastic. -

when did everyones pain start
charlies dad replied to lord montyjones's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Millwall away. 1-0 defeat. A midweek nonentity of a game, listened to it on the radio. Think it was the night of ''Crazy Barry'' fame. It was opbvious then something was badly wrong and had permeated deep into the club. -

charlies dad replied to Arizona Bay's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Totally agree with this. The board will keep - this would in no way be letting them off the hook. Paddon was a swashbuckling figure in the first City team i saw. Instantly recognisable, and a big entertainer, with that left peg, which resembled a cannon. Lets all get together and show some respect to a true canary legend. Whatever our politics. And lets win for Paddons memory. How about it? -
Dont know who, but in addition to Stephenson being confirmed as coach, 2 loanees are all but done and dusted. Subject to being rubber stamped. I have no idea who they are, but we should find out soon.

Im not entirely convinced the Turners are interested in putting money into the club. If they are however, might I suggest that NOW would be as good a time as any to start? -
Re: Protest against the protestors?
charlies dad replied to ca's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
[quote user="Arthur Whittle"] Why do you feel the need to have a pop at people with different views to yours? I doubt the protestors will be mouthing off to the paying fans going in. Sums you up, and you have the gall to call us childish!! Ps- I dont think my son who will be attending protests would be fazed by your pathetic threat, he served 12 years in the army as a Para...Be warned as you would say[;)] [/quote] Arthur, i sincerely hope he bumps into these individuals. -

[quote user="Michael Starr"] [quote user="charlies dad"]I think you are mixing Smart up with somebody else, Michael. He is a 4''11" 9 stone right winger who does 100 metres in under 10 seconds.[/quote] LOL! I think you might be right! Why did I think he was a central defensive midfielder? How amusing... all this playing players out of position malarky has gone to my head. [/quote] -
To the protesters: just a thought....
charlies dad replied to jelltex's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
The difference between the ipswich and sheffield games was the effort and enterpriise shown by the team. Only god knows how ipswich went in at half time 2 up, they were totally outplayed, as they were in the second, when only wretched refereeing saved them. sheffield however was, like most performances home and away an absolutely disgraceful affront to the paying public. The players couldnt show less respect to the support if the took off their shirts before the match and urniated on them in front of the main stand. The players have to give - the supporters are spent out. -

[quote user="Michael Starr"] Clearly this is a Lee Clark signing rather than a Glenn Roeder one... Lee was youth team manager at Newcastle and would probably know this lad inside and out (oo''errr). It appears to address another key position lacking quality, and like others here... i''ve never heard of him before!!! I can''t really pass judgement until i''ve seen him for myself. South African youngster? hmmm, I wonder if he''s mates with Bally Smart! Could forge a decent relationship in midfield. Smart as a defensive midfielder, and this lad as our more attacking option... just a thought. [/quote]I think you are mixing Smart up with somebody else, Michael. He is a 4''11" 9 stone right winger who does 100 metres in under 10 seconds. -
[quote user="Chrisr"] Sorry Royal Anglian, but this smacks of retrogade sexist tosh. Oh but woman your place is in the kitchen is it not........ 24,000 fans per game, a serviceable debt, a season in the premier league (do not underestimate achievement vs resource) , and more than that a number of people who''s primary interest is in the long term sustainablity of the football club. Oh, and yes i''ve been at the forums etc and listened. Delia''s business acumen is responsible for so much of our current fanbase and revenue. I was there standing on the barclay in front of 12000 fans...... (no I do not work for the club!) [/quote] You omitted to mention the worst team in the clubs history and the probability of third division football. If the downward spiral under smith is allowed to continue, our local derby will be against Norwich United. But at least we will still have a football club.

GREAT TIME TO PROTEST.....NOT!
charlies dad replied to Rudolph Hucker's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
I feel that a demonstration would not be a good idea in the current climate. Some prat on here has already stated he wants to fight with demonstrators, and more of his ilk on either side could make for a dangerous situation. Speaking as someone who takes his children to the game, i dont think violence is a good hor''s douerve to a football match, however poor the football is. I believe that if the status quo is maintained, the board will have garnered enough rope with which to hang itself, because the general mood has shifted to a position where the board have little support left. I cannot stomach the thought of third division football, likewise i cannot stomach this board - lets keep our poweer dry, and if Coventry goes the way of all the other performances this season, let rip at the end of the game. When dissenting voices will be at their loudest and in the vast majority. -
[quote user="lobster catcher"]Is it me or is it a fact,the pinkun message board is far more vicious ,vindictive and damm right nasty than the other norwich forum''s.I have been reading some of them and there dosn''t seem to be the gang mentality on them[:D][/quote] It must be you.
