[quote user="Good Evening Neil"]"Drury was the weak link tonight Neil, he can''t pass, he can''t blah blah blah for about 5 minutes. I don''t mean to single him out but he was the weak link" jesus christ why is it we always have the village idiot on? [/quote] Yes I hear it, I was shocked, I just think they are glory hunters, or they expected Ashley Cole played for us and it''s not

My heart say we will beat Leeds but my head doesn''t, they are top of the tree and still the unbeaten side in the Football League. I think their success was mainly from their academy players. But of course, we have our own academy players which will give us some hope, so, a great game expected on next Monday night!!!

[quote user="Houston Canary"]....as the US won at Honduras (who have 4 or 5 players in Prem and 1 in Italy) so we are in our 6th consecutive WC. Mexico is in, too based on today''s results.  See ya in Jo''burg!  Hope it''s a US vs England final, and I won''t care who wins![/quote]   Did Landon play? Hope he will come back to play in Europe

[quote user="NCFC-47"]Wether Lambert gets taken off our hands & we fall back into a scenario again of having to find a new manager.  Also lamberts record proves he hasnt been that loyal to any club has he ? [/quote] I understand your worry but think we are now in the Top 6, not second, not first, I don''t know any clubs at this moment who had sacked their manager will take a closer look at Lambert, since he achieve nothing at the moment!

Can''t believe what''s happen consider in last season, we just cannot stop conceded goals...

[quote user="TomSlisz"]Peter Taylor has left Wycombe as well thats a strange one[/quote] Did I recall wrong about Peter Taylor "change" his job in one years time in recent time?

[quote user="Say Hello To The Angels"]Scotland have not qualified for the world cup, even if they did the chances of Stephen Hughes making the 22 are minimal. Declan Rudd & Jed Steer are away with pretend England squads. I guess my point is, why have we allowed our team to be weakened in this way? I hate Alex Ferguson as much as the next bloke, but when he complains about international football has he got a point? [/quote] Hughes case was interesting, because with Flecter, Scott Brown in their midfield, I don''t think he can get a chance there. Also players cannot reject their call up by their country? I don''t know...

[quote user="matt crowhurst"]if people are going to criticise Jamie for his miss from his quarter chance, im with wiz on this one, then why are they not criticising Cody for a very similar miss after his defelcted goal? for me jamie has proved in the last 2 league games that he deserves his chance first [/quote] Striker''s job is scoring goals and Curo did that, no matter how easy he finish but he still scored 2 in 2, we are now with a manager who can lead us from 1-7 lost to a 5-2 win, so I wouldn''t doubt his sight to rate a player, of course Jamie.  

[quote user="Brendan"] I agree GP [:)] Hes very consistent and has been for years, when hes been fit anyway. I would also like to praise him for the fact that he seems one of the most honest player I know. When a free kick goes against him he doesnt (or not much anyway) argue with it, just gets on with it. It really annoys me when a player just stand there and argues with the ref, Its soooo much better to just get back, into position.   But anyway, good post there [Y] [/quote] You got the excellent point, I recall even in the Premiership season, against Bolton away I recall when Adam made a fair tackle, all Bolton players surround him and the ref to complaint, and Adam just stand there to apologise, not react, it was hard for the fans to see that, but he was a clean player

I was so so pleased about finally we have a manager who will look at the young players, and used them to play! Similar words were saying by Worthy, Roeder and Gunn, but seems none of them will have faith to give the kids the chance.   Not all academy players will promote to the first team, but I am sure the list above will!!

Spillane of course, because he was from our academy :)

Well first of all when Lambert was in charge, the fans expected both Hoolahan and Doherty were first team players but due to poor performance at the start of the season, Lambert drop them and perhaps told the players if you are no perform then you cannot play, even you are first team players in last few years. Now the young players get their chance to shine, so both Hoolahan and Doherty have to perform the peak to keep their place. Do you all see the new and fresh Hoolahan and Doherty now? Perhaps it was a bit magic from Paul Lambert, good man management skill.

[quote user="B-ru"] Lambert- Holt is just training with th squad to keep his fitness up... http://www.pinkun.com/content/pinkun/norwich-city/story.aspx?brand=PINKUNOnline&category=Norwich&tBrand=PINKUNOnline&tCategory=xDefault&itemid=NOED25%20Sep%202009%2011%3A38%3A23%3A463 [/quote] Come on Lambo, get your right hand man now!!!

[quote user="gsr600"]So with gary holt training at colney, just a quick question, would any of you like him back permanent as a player coach[/quote] With Adeyemi and Koey Smith in the side, I think it will be great for Gary to provide experience to them to play...

[quote user="Attleborough_Canary"]An excellent teacher for Smith and Adeyemi in my opinion. I think Smith in particular would really benefit from Holt being here.[/quote] You got my point! I would say Holt will be very good for the young players

was wrong, because the lads Smith, Daley and Adeyemi did show commitment and spirit to the team, which Hoolahan did not.

[quote user="Tookie140"] From the performances i''ve seen of him, he''s nothing special. Your views on Daley. [/quote] Lots of pace to burn but should be play on the wing not up front, may need Lambert ot Culverhouse to converted his playing style.

3 games unbeaten then we lost 1-2 means relegation form? Sorry I must had to disagree this time. Our future is bright and I am sure the three 17 years old will learn so much tonight and improve game after game.

I hope every fans can give Jamie a chance, I won''t say he was better than every strikers we have at the moment, but I would say if Martin or Cody start, they may have the same goalscoring record because they are not really to make the first team yet

[quote user="bristol_canary"]hoolihan is not our best player, certainly no fan''s favourite. Hucks was our best player and the fans loved him. You can hardly compare the two [/quote] Cannot disagree more with you, got to know Hoolahan was the player who GR brings to replace Hucks! What a joke! The guy was never same as Hucks class.

I think Curo give his all to the team, and Cody''s pace would bee much better when he was coming on as a sub

I would love to see Curo to score today and he deserved it, Cody was good player but I would rather see him come on as a sub to burst the opponent tired defence

[quote user="Norwich"]I really hope so! But I can see one of them, if not both, being poached by a bigger club and us getting a meagre bit of compensation. Agreed, Lambert is totally correct in saying ''If there good enough then they''re old enough'' Perfectly correct IMO, just what Roeder needed to appreciate! Was just wondering who people think is better, I only managed to get to the Sunderland game so cannot really comment?[/quote]   ''If there good enough then they''re old enough''   I can''t remember well, but above phrase was many of our previous managers had said, but none of them willing to throw the young players to the first team -- only Lambert did!

[quote user="Canaries Utd"]we have a promising young goalkeeper within our club, he deserves a go? We didn''t give Lewis a fair chance, i don''t want Rudd going the same way![/quote] Absolultey agree, we need to give our youngsters to chance to play for the first team!!!

[quote user="Bury Yellow"]Apologies if anyone else has said something similar but just got back via the Attleborough Indian (Very very nice). Quite simply Lambert selected a team with a few players that are going to be very doubtful in Lambert''s future team. His obvious philosophy was '' If I give em enough rope they will hang themselves. So stand up Doc, Tudor Jones and Whaley for starters!!! Due for a visit to the Manager''s office shortly I wager. Oh the joy in having a proper Manager running this club at last. That''s all folks. A very good night to you all.[/quote] I cannot disagree you more! Those 3 players were shocking, absolutely SHOCKING!!! (I watch the game on the internet from Hong Kong)
