King Juan of Spain

[quote user="Old Boy"]Hang on one gosh-darned minute, camul - we''re the best fans in the world. We know that because we''ve told ourselves that we are - often. We''ve also told ourselves that we deserve to be a Premier League club, that we deserve to have a billionaire owner who can throw money at us until we''ve got that Premier League status, that a mere millionaire who invests a sizeable chunk of her money in a business that makes Northern Rock look like Fort Knox is beneath contempt, that we must sign every footballers that''s available (and quite a few that aren''t), and that whenever the team loses or plays badly the manager''s a f***ing st*p*d c*** who should be lynched. But we''ve paid our money so we can be as pig-ignorantly divisive as we want, and who cares if the Club suffers - it''s us fans that matter, cos we''re the best! [/quote]   That is quite simply the best post ever. It should be used as an automatic reply every time the idiots pull another negative out of the magic hat. And good on yer for bringing it up in the first place, camul. Spot on.

[quote user="tribes"][quote user="King Juan of Spain"][quote user="1st Wizard"][quote user="jewish"] chelmsfordyellow I agree with majority of your comments and I too wish them all the very best in the future in finding jobs elsewhere - from what i understand and what we have just seen football is a very cut throat business and it comes as part of the package I''m just trying to restabilize this thread to talk about the subject matter and I think football is a game of opinions and I would like to air mine as having a friends son pass through the academy which for one reason or not has not produced much assets which we as a club used to survive on I do have some opinions and GR thinks its time for a change which lets try and be positive will ultimately move the club forward - its far to early to tell [/quote] I here your wise words jewish, but I expressed an opinion on here this morning and was promply told to F'' off!.[:S] [/quote] That''s because you don''t seek to debate, you crave attention. Anyway. It''s been the talk for quite some time that the Academy isn''t working so any new broom is surely a good thing? Even Fergie ruthlessly moves people on and is well known for being a dictator at Man Utd. What''s difficult to understand is how people cry out for a strong manager then moan when we get one. Sure, there''s a difference between Grant''s ''you''re all rubbish'' and Roeder''s way of doing things, but he''s being proactive instead of letting things stagnate like Worthy did. The same board resided over both managers, so they should at least get some credit for allowing Roeder to mould the club into his way of thinking - with the same philosophy from first team down to under 10s. That''s how they do it at Chelsea, Man Utd and Arsenal, and it brings success. So could we at least just wait and see what happens before passing blind judgement?   [/quote]The contentious issue is the sacking of Neil Adams. He was the U14''s coach. Are you saying that he was responsible for the failure of the Academy. He is the only coach to be dismissed, all the rest are still there.[/quote]   Maybe he is - but how would any of us know? If you run a company, you need people on board who think like you.

You deserve it.

[quote user="jas the barclay king"][quote user="1st Wizard"] Cost cutting and panic staff wages removal by a club which is broke!. One day you lot will learn to listern to us prophets.[:|] [/quote] nail.. head.. hit! jas :) [/quote] All that''s happening is the inevitable. Grant talked about the club needing a massive overhaul, and now Roeder is actually doing it. Instead of being so glass-half-empty all the time, why can''t you take a positive from this? It means Roeder has the intention to stay here at the club and hopefully build it into a Premier League outfit. All you buffoons do is bang on about how everything that happens must mean we''re going down the swanny.

www.norwichcityblog.blogspot.com Some salient points indeed.

This is absolute nonsense. Anyone who''s seen him play more than once will know he''s a good player.

And the camera work is superb. Watch out telly, Archant are coming...

You''re asking in the wrong place, aren''t you? Most of the whingers here have never been inside Carrow Road.

Under Chase we were in the black. Then he left us in the red. Which meant that under Delia, we''ve never had any money But at least we haven''t gone bust. End of story.

but i like his image of delia and doomcaster..   www.norwichcityblog.blogspot.com

ARE ONLY HAPPYWHEN YOU''RE MOANING. GLENN IS A GOD. GET USED TO IT!

[quote user="Arthur Whittle"] Well that''s just great isn''t it? Sums this pathetic lot up, we''ve got half a dozen first team Lonee''s in, and we sell a potential future England Keeper to...Ahem...Peterborough for less than half a million. We''ll be fine fine, we''ve got a couple of Reading youngsters in [I''m sure we sold Flecky to them for eff all],oh how the mighty falls hey? Well at least we''ll have the best 5 a side team in the land next year, must be great for confidence.I love it when they say ''''Dave the striker cost us 1 million [oh yes, make it out that we''re spending the money,and, when it suits them....wait...it cost us...two hundred grand!!].....Spin bloody spin.....!! OOOOH i forgot...we''ll hads of money to spend in the summer....as a * feeder club to READING.!![/quote] PAY ATTENTION TO ME! PAY ATTENTION TO ME! SOMEONE, PLEASE FILL THE EMPTY VOID THAT IS MY LIFE AS ARTHUR WHITTLE!

[quote user="Citizen Journalist Foghorn"][quote user="Saint Canary"] I would like Taylor back, he played well but I think we are in danger of making him out to be a lot better than he really is.[/quote] One win in 6 since he left.  However the defense has only conceded 5 goals in 6 games during this time.  (We have only scored 6 in 6) He was certainly a threat at corners and free kicks, could have made the difference.  We will never know. [/quote]And wasn''t it exactly that kind of form that got Grant into trouble?

[quote user="Pboro_Canary"][quote user="BlyBlyBabes"] BBC Sports website Manchester United''s Ryan Shawcross is set to join Stoke for £1m. (various) [:S] OTBC   [/quote] BBB, in the absence of Smudger you seem to be making a determined bid to become the resident misery guts posting nothing but negative sound bites lately - which is a pity as I remember you putting much more thought provoking stuff on in the past.  In the summer we were (according to reports from quite a few sources in the press) close to getting Shawcross on loan however the player himself opted for Stoke because it was closer to home and also Man Utd were insisting that whoever he was loaned to virtually guarnateed him first team football.  There is not much anyone could do about the former and the latter was sensibly resisted.  Now Shawcross wants to stay somewhere he is used to and settled at, so so it is unlikely any bid is likely to tempt him elsewhere (perhaps some similarities to the Taylor/QPR situation?). The club can be criticised for quite a few things but in this case I think they are not really to blame. [/quote]Well said. I can''t believe the amount of numpties that think that every time a north-west based player turns us down it''s because we''ve done something wrong.Some of these players have a choice of TENS of clubs that they could play for without having to move house - and Norfolk is still considered a backwater by the rest of the country - it''s really that simple!BBB is just a Shmuck and Cudger wannabe, which he''ll never be ''cos no-one is that bi-polar (they''re the same person anyway).

Can''t believe the patronising nonsense on here about Bulgaria. Our league is hardly glorious, is it?I don''t care where he''s from or whether he''s Taylor or not - if he can defend set pieces then we''re made!By the way - Boris - are you for real? Your pidgin Bulgarian seems a little too authentic...

Because he''ll be rubbish at any other level -trust me, I''ve seen him loads.

[quote user="Smudger"] Really??? I am convinced that Delia can sell enough plates of steak & chips to see us survive and mount a late play-off challenge that will see us victoriously return to the Premiership by beating Ipswich 5-0 at Wembley. I am so excited that I am dashing down to Carrow Road first thing tomorrow morning to get my ticket for the Scunthorpe game.... [:$] [/quote] Give us a shout if you need any instructions on how to buy a ticket as we know it''s not something you''re too familiar with, Smugger.

[quote user="BlyBlyBabes"] The psychological effect of the board being either unwilling or too poor to go with true vigour for Martin Taylor. The situation climaxing at weekend would have had a very depressing effect on both the players and Glenn Roeder & his staff. In other words. WTF have I got myself into. I must be working for the church mouse or a bunch of cretins, or maybe a bunch of smallminded w*mps? It''s obvious to most that Taylor was the talisman behind our recent recovery. The injector of stability, confidence and organisation. It''s a very difficult situation to deal with mentally and emotionally. You all know how difficult it can be when you''ve been let down badly? Same way with Glenn and the players. I hope they can get themselves together for Scunthorpe otherwise much of the recent good work will come undone. Glen & the players - we''re behind you 100% so long as you give us 100% effort and respect. As to the board - go take a jump. I don''t like stupidity and I don''t likew*mps and I don''t like attempts to manipulate with spin. OTBC     [/quote] Congratulations - you are a WINNER!   ''Most obvious Pink''un post by attention-seeking ''supporter'' after one poor performance''. Well done, you should be proud of yourself.   Sack the board! Sack Roeder! Put the team on an island and bomb them! We only got a draw!  

Brady didn''t want to sell to us. Simple as that. She sees a deal in selling Vine and Taylor to QPR for a combined fee with add ons. What are we supposed to do about that? Good post though, RH - keep the faith, we''re winning and we ''aint going to stop.

[quote user="yellow hammer"][quote user="King Juan of Spain"] If Roeder says Brum were being difficult, let''s take his word for it. It wouldn''t be the first time they''ve done this. This is not the time to bark at the board - judge them by the transfer window. [/quote] What a strange post KJoS. This is all about the transfer window, is it not? The figures being quoted on here say Brum are asking between 1-1.25 mill for a player who wishes to come to Norwich and doesn''t want to live in London. Brum are not being difficult, QPR are preparedto pay that price. The difficulty lies with our board who cannot see that a player who has been a major part in our four wins out of five, dragging us out of the relegation zone is not worth what we paid for our keeper. How much will relegation cost us? YH [/quote] We could choose to go on what you claim to know or what Roeder says happened. And I''d take his word over yours every time. It''s pretty clear what happened if you read the full interview with Roeder, and it was all Birmingham.

If Roeder says Brum were being difficult, let''s take his word for it. It wouldn''t be the first time they''ve done this. This is not the time to bark at the board - judge them by the transfer window.

Do you actually know what you''re talking about? I thought not.
