SWP = Poor Mans Ruel Fox!!

[quote user="Tim Allman"]I’d love Siggurdson to play at Carrow Road, but in transfer fee and wages alone it’s more than likely he’ll cost a much richer club than City considerably more than the bill to rebuild the City Stand for his services. Keep on dreaming.[/quote]   Yeah, his performances for Swansea since joining cannot be doing them any favours in trying to sign him for next season.  I am sure there are bigger clubs sitting up and taking notice who can pay a bigger transfer fee and lots more in wages, unless they have some kind of pre-arrangement to sign him first refusal if they so wish?

[quote user="BlyBlyBabes"] What did Shearer shout ''Yay'' in response to?   OTBC [/quote]   not having time to have to function his meagre brain to trot out the same tired cliches about one more game, as far as I could tell.  Man is a moron with nothing interesting to say.  I much prefer MOTD2 and they do often have some nice things to say about us.  

  Oh Swansea lost today as well and are also only on 39 points, therefore they are not safe either?  Actually it appears that the relegation scrap is between the bottom 11 teams according to some posters.......

  Surprised there hasnt been a pick for this one yet, seems like an absolute cert for me, so MAN CITY - home win vs Sunderland for me.   Sunderland had a midweek replay against Everton to contend with and Man City still boast a 100% home record this season.  They will want to keep the pressure on with Utd not playing again til Monday this week.   Good luck NYC and all Pups this week!

  Probably a clever idea for the club not to release full details of the length of the contract, stops too much scaremongering amongst fans about it running out. I u nderstood a rolling contract to mean it always had 12 months left on it, so ensuring we receive fair compensation if he left and Lambert a decent payout if the unimaginable happens and he was sacked?  Sounds good for both parties in our current position imo

[quote user="shefcanary"]Have you got that as a definite - I''d say with my old black and white TV specs on that yellow and white clash more than yellow and the red n white of Sunderland for instance.  I hope you are right but....[/quote]   Surely we dont change strips on the basis on what they may look like on a B&W tv any more? 

[quote user="GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary"] I''d love to know who exactly these neutral fans are that "take in a game" at Craven cottage?!? [/quote]   Think it says something about the Fulham fanbase when they have a 25,000 capacity stadium in central London showing Premier League football but need to regularly rely on ''neutral'' supporters to fill seats

  Real Madrid home win please

  Top versus bottom in the Scottish Div 1 for me this week, where Ross County should beat Queen of the South.  Ross County are unbeaten at home and QOS have only won once away all season. 1/2 on Bet365 looks a good banker for me.   Good luck NBS and all Pups this week.

[quote user="Smokebomb"]After such a great performance  it was very dissapointing that we were unable to keep the ball towards the end of the game.We gave it away cheaply, lost our shape and dropped far to deep. Lack of experience and self belief, it`s a shame cos it`s the only time in the game when we looked frightened of them.    [/quote]   Think I''ve heard it all now!!!!!

[quote user="Mister Chops"][quote user="Indy_Bones"]Playing Wright-Phillips isn''t exactly the most sensible decision... [/quote] A minor amendment. [/quote]   You beat me to it Mister Chops!!

http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2012/feb/24/secret-footballer-cash-trophies?commentpage=last#end-of-comments   excellent article to show the attitude of modern footballers and why Lambert was spot on in going for young and hungry this season as opposed to the exalted ''premier league experience''.

  Think this week I will through my considerable weight behind a Man City home win vs Blackburn.  Cannot see how this match could be anything than a home win!   Good luck all the Pups this week.

  you think Bates wont sell players over Warnock''s head?  He would sell his own grandmother if he could make a quick profit.

  Definitely prefer our board to Wolves, how about sacking your manager then looking like replacing him with Steve Bruce or Roy Keane??

  Real Madrid home win for me please.  Good luck EC and all Pups, a good final six in a difficult week!

  It annoys me when I see us compared to Stoke, we are effective yes, we do use channels, but we also play some lovely football at times, which is nothing like that anti-football lot managed by Pulis!!

  Getting my pick in at a half-decent time this week!!  I will have a Celtic home win vs Inverness.   Good luck SDP and all Pups!

  http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2012/feb/06/five-things-premier-league-weekend?commentpage=all#start-of-comments   some very positive comments on Norwich AND Swansea here

  Man City home win please, surely a banker against the poor travellers Fulham.  

[quote user="Supermarket Prodigy"]Getting back on topic, Radio Clyde suggesting that the fee offered by Rangers was... £500K. Staggering.[/quote]   The £2m offered as rumoured originally was derisory enough in the circumstances, if it was really £500k then I imagine it was a very very short telephone call!  Add another zero onto that offer before it would get close to being a proper offer for our talisman.

Damn very late this week, Wrexham home win for me please.   Good luck everyone, looks a good final six!!!

  Its not just the league positions we need to look at though, I saw the Fair Play league in the Racing Post last week and we are up there with only Man Utd, Tottenham and Swansea above us.    Obviously the top two will already be in Europe so it could be between us or Swansea to get a Europa Cup place through Fair Play, that would be the first qualifying round most probably starting very early pre-season and something we wouldnt want to entertain next season!

  Both centre backs were superb today, together with Ruddy.  Streets apart from the displays we were getting earlier on in the season from respective centre back partnerships.

  http://www.metro.co.uk/sport/football/888027-norwich-v-chelsea-ends-0-0-after-unique-foul-less-first-half#ixzz1k6n1irjE   Apparently we managed a Premier League first of the first half with no fouls, I watched the match but am amazed this is the case!  Certainly surprised especially considering our front two.
