Snakepit Boy

I have a feeling that it could indeed be Roeder.

I know it''s impossible to predict results accurately, and nothing ever turns out quite as expected. But just to show the gravity of our situation - just in case anyone at the club STILL fails to realise the quandary that we''re in - just imagine the following results this week: Palace (rejuvenated under Warnock) get a point at home to Watford on Monday. On Saturday, Preston get a point at Barnsley, Sheffield Wednesday get a point at Plymouth, QPR beat Hull at home, Palace win at Scunthorpe and Sheff Utd beat Burnley at home. By my reckoning, that would leave the bottom of the table looking like this, ahead of our tough home games against the Scum and Watford: 21 QPR: 14 points 22 Blackpool: 13 points 23 Sheff Wed: 13 points 24 Norwich: 8 points That means we would be FIVE points adrift of second-bottom, and SIX adrift of safety. And to make things even worse, next Monday Blackpool (who will get this Saturday off) will play Barnsley (who will have played just 48 hours earlier). Next Tuesday''s round of fixtures look rather ominous, too . . .

I''m not usually one to post rumours, but I heard from one of the in-bred brothers on tNorwich market who is a close friend of his in-bred brother that his in-bred brother will be appointed as the new Norwich manager and will be unveiled at a press conference at the market on the huh. This comes from a reliable source who usually get these things right.    

[quote user="Arthur Whittle"][quote user="Bigmarkcanary"][quote user="Arthur Whittle"][quote user="Kathy"][quote user="Arthur Whittle"][quote user="Kathy"] For the record we meet at the Blyth Jex school. Wizard, Arthur, Smudger et al - as you seem to be experts on supporters groups, what they should be called, what they should do, what they should say, who they should talk to, whether or not they should go to matches, whether or not they should want City to win, where they should meet etc, why dont you set up your own supporters group? I wish you the best of luck. You will need it. Oh, and you would have to use your real names. Oh dear. [/quote] Absolute rubbish again Kathy.....thats just grand isnt it, me and cluck and co are talking crap are we? Come on Kathy stop skipping the touchy subject and give me your view on the board, why are you buying time? Surely your stance should be made by now? Your little click has been sussed out and if you dont believe me ask anyone who thankfully doesnt bother with NCISA because they see it for what it is.....a cosy little circle. I will be the first to thank you for your hard work in times gone by but your time is up imo and if you dont take a long hard look and change your outlook, people will also hold you responsible with the clubs decline along side saviour smith. Arthur Whittle [or maybe not????.jeez i couldnt make it up!!!] [/quote] And what about the people who dont agree with you Arthur? What should I say to them? [/quote] And still non the wiser to my Question........one more poor result and the saviours of NCFC will run out of excuses to back the board....i would imagine these are tricky times for the inner circle! [/quote] Arthur Prattle - is that your real name?? [;)] Perhaps if you answer Kathy''s reasonable question, she might just give you an answer to the three that you asked. Oh, and there''s also the other two that she asked - or is she expecting too much?? Are you going to start a supporter''s group? What about the people that don''t agree with you? What should she say to them, in your opinion? [/quote] No How can a group Called independent not voice any concerns with regard to running the club? Seems a little silly to call it independent supporters when its clear to see they are not going to question smith and co. Please asnswer me this Kathy.......Are the NCISA and the Board pals to the extent you will not question there running because that is how its comng across and more and more people are seeing it. If you care as much as you say why has no public statement been issued about the decline of NCFC?  The league doesnt lie and the paperwork makes poor reading to so i think as a paid up season ticket holder for more years than most i have a right to know wheret the so called voice of the supporters stand on this shocking decline. [/quote] "Independent" doesn´t mean "anti". "Independent" means just that - free to make a judgment on issues as and when they arise. Some you might agree with, other you might not. Are you a member of NCISA? If not, why not join the association and work from within to change its policies? You could even try to join the commitee. Alternatively, why not set up your own supporters´ group, which can then say whatever it wants? The bottom line here is that Kathy has tried to answer you (and not just you) constructively and politely - and you are just trying to pick a fight.

[quote user="Smudger"]It is oh so easy to see why those in charge with the club are alowed to get away with anything!!![/quote] Funny - I seem to remember not too long ago a number of threads suggesting Archant and NCISA were in a great conspiracy AGAINST the club!

The problem with the Green and Yellow Un is that it would have an unfortunate acronym.

[quote user="Kathy"]Late substitution!! Adam Drury is ill. Lee Croft is coming. It will be nice to have a different face.[/quote] Why - could you do with a new face?

You wot?

[quote user="cityangel"] Ray you are naughty old boy turning a perfectly good thread about a fans forum and AGM into a sausage thread, shame on you. So to get it back on topic, who''s going tonight to keep me company? [/quote] I''ll be there, CA.

Look - steady on, folks! I wasn''t asking if anyone had "ever heard the rumour". I just heard from three separate sources that something was happening this morning, that''s all. Didn''t know if there was anything in it.

Anyone else heard that we''re about to sign Calum Davenport on loan?

I was going to go to the game, but decided to keep my powder dry for some of the more attractive (and nearer) fixtures later this season. But we should get a point - although 0-0 is my prediction for an uneventful start to the season.

Tim Sherwood and Andy Marshall. Can''t ever forgive either of them.

Fancy a laugh? Check out ESPN Classic (Sky channel 442) today at 1.30pm. Well worth it.

[quote user="UEA Graduate Canary"]Thats just sacking the chairmen though, which would mean Roger Munby, Delia and Micheal would still reside [/quote] Don''t you mean "Neil Doncaster, Delia and Michael"?

You should all have learned by now that all money that comes in is already budgeted for. In the same way that all transfer fees we receive are actually less than we expected while all transfer fees we pay out actually cost us more than we first thought.

[quote user="JC"] In your desire to spit venom, you may have missed the key points of this, apart from it being talksport, it is Brazil, who has his finger well on the pulse of east anglian football.  [quote user="Herb"][quote user="ricky knight"]According to Alan Brazil and Talksport this morning deal for Cureton good as done.[/quote] An ex binner who got chucked off his own radio show for being half cut...excuse me if I take that with a pinch of salt... [/quote] [/quote] But Brazil is a t*****. As is John Wark.

[quote user="ricky knight"]Did you not read it, i said Brazil and Talksport, meaning Talksport backed up the statement, ex binner or not Brazil has always been quite complimentry about city, apart from tongue in cheek remarks.[/quote] He''s still a binner, though. And a t***.

[quote user="Say Hello To The Angels"]that''s an interesting idea although the usual crowd would inevitably accuse the board of lacking ambition and going for the cheap option.[/quote] Who is "the usual crowd"?

[quote user="Arthur Whittle"] See Web team- Vinces comments on the thread: my problems with the board part 2 { page 5 }. Says it all that even the web team believe some crap accusations by fellow posters and choose to prevent posts so you only get one side of the argument across. Me thinks they are too scared  to ruin relations with the club, same as the EDP, Evening News, Neil Adams etc. Oh we cant possibley criticise the board now can we or we must be the same person. "I''m still trying to work from Arthur Whittle''s post if he is Cluck, or it''s just plain sarcasm. But we''re aware that some of this is becoming tiresome and have rejected some posts today." Notice posts mocking the state of my health were allowed to slip the net though, funny that! [/quote] Yep - spot on. Those Fan''s Eye columnists and the likes of Richard Balls are so in bed with the club it''s untrue. (And yes, AW - this is sarcasm.)

[quote user="Dicky"]Hoozy should definately stay.  A committed player who has shown recently that he can also be a good player.  Anyone who was at Chelsea saw how he controlled Robben and others for the whole game.  A legend in the making?[/quote] Yeah - he controlled Robben and the others so effectively "for the whole game" that we only lost 4-0.

I can''t believe people want Andy Hughes to stay . He is just not good enough. People wheel out this good game or that mediocre performance, but the bottom line is that he is not good enough for a team that wants to be anywhere near the top of this division. Sure, he tries hard, but then so would all of us on this message board. Being keen isn''t enough, I''m afraid. I agree that there are other players at our club who also are not very good, but that is no excuse for keeping Hughes.

At the risk of creating yet more doom and gloom, how long should we give it before the lack of new signings starts to worry us?

I know new players is our priority, but it''s about time we got new scoreboards. The old ones were a joke - bulbs that should have been on were off, and other bulbs that should have been off stayed on. In this day and age, a basic, working scoreboard is a must.
