[quote user="gazzathegreat"]Lord Horn, perhaps we should send you our season ticket rebates - let''s have that played on the scoreboards before every home match. I am sure 10 or so of us can fund each match! Good stuff, though not enough of it, where were the players?[/quote]Just what Mr Gunn is wondering right now..

[quote user="JJ"]Definitely true.  Saw it in the mall yesterday.  Is is just a Man Utd XI so that could mean anything.  Will probably be a reserve team.   [/quote]Did you see any dates concerning the match JJ?

[quote user="Barclay hero"]I''m annoyed and upset. Probably no more so than 25 or 30 thousand people that follow Norwich, but my annoyance is not just with the team but some of the media and fellow fans.I''m annoyed because there are some people that think relegation to League 1 spells the end of Norwich City. These people think that our demise to League Two and beyond is inevitable. And many have questioned why they bother following a team when the players don''t turn up.I''ve got a message for these people1) Football goes in cycles. Wolves won the Championship this season and well done to them, but I can remember them as a Divison 4 side (in fact I saw a Div 4 match between Preston and Wolves in 1988). Likewise Blackpool fans over a certain age can remember their team challenging regularly for major honours, and Forest''s European wins were not really that long ago. Likewise, Wigan only came into the league in 78, Hull nearly got relegated from the league back in the 90s and theyre both in the Prem. Norwich Fans 50 years ago would only have dared to dream about top flight - for the Cup Run side of 59, it would be another 13 years before their club got promoted to the old Div 1. So its our turn to be a lower league side again. We''ll be back, it might take a few years, but it WILL happen. In the meantime - live with it, and carry on supporting the club - it needs you. 2) Prudence without Ambition maybe - but at least prudence means we still have a club. Look at Southampton - they could be out of business before next season starts, at least we still have a club to support 3) I''m City Til I Die - that means I will follow the Club until I''m in a box. If the club ends up in the Conference or below, I''ll still follow them. If they go out of business then I''ll do all I can to help get the club restarted again - just as Aldershots fans did (and for that matter Newport). Those guys never gave up, and in the case of the Shots theyre back4) Is being in League One so bad? We’ve now got a chance of ''Giant Killing'' Peterborough, not to mention Ipswich. Chances are we''ll win more games than we lose - and that has to be better.5) In 30 odd years following the Canaries I''ve seen us get promoted 3 times, relegated 5 times, reach a playoff final, win the Milk Cup and get to 2 FA Cup Semis. I''ve seen us beat Bayern Munich and lose to Barnet in 2-legged cup competitions. There have been plenty of lows, but lots of highs too. I''d rather have that than mid-table obscurity in the Prem - what can Bolton and Wigan fans actually look forward to? They''ll never win the league, and probably won''t win the cups either - they might qualify for Europe but won''t get beyond the QFs - and they won''t go down. Whilst I''m not belittling those clubs - they do pretty well to regularly survive in a very tough league - I think I''d rather have seasons of ups and seasons of downs rather than lots of nothingness....6) Finally - those people that do walk away at the moment the club needs you (and I''ve heard people threatening to do this) - you''re no more fit to wear the shirt than some of those players out there today. If you follow the club only when its moderately successful and has the chance of promotion to the Prem and a home league game against Man U, then we''re better off without you. The club will survive and do well again because of the many thousands of fans that will keep it goingOn the Ball City, never mind the danger.....

[quote user="The Walking Man"][quote user="ndhscanary"]God I hope thats not he away end on the other side of the pitch there. Get a bit wet when its raining[/quote] I have a Yeovil suporting friend who''s gleefully been telling me that the away fans there are in an uncovered terrace... [/quote]Haha, you most certainly do! [:D]

Robert Chase?! [:O]

Haha, Brilliant! [:D]

[quote user="canary cherub "]Many thanks ciderkidd. I was going to say "I have a soft spot for Yeovil" but fans of bigger clubs often say that about Norwich and it makes me sick.  Anyway I did go and support you in the playoff final, partly I admit to take in the new Wembley as I can''t see any way of getting there with City in my lifetime . . . We''ve gone down because we deserve to.  This has been coming for at least three years but those in charge have been asleep at the wheel.  We''ve certainly got nothing to be arrogant about, quite honestly you''ll be in the Champ before we are as things stand. I liked your comment about owners who are very keen on spending other people''s money but won''t relinquish control.  Only too true in our case. On the ball City   [/quote]Thanks for the reply cherub [:)]Myself, I couldn''t get to the Playoff Final because I was off camping - rather awkward time to go camping I agree! However, we were 90 minutes away from meeting Norwich 2 seasons early, and I think the inevitable has just happened to Norwich - something I have been hoping for personally!Haha, well I''m not so sure about that myself, seeing as we only stayed up last season because several clubs went into Administration and got the 10 point penalty.However, I do feel the future is relatively bright for us Glovers, and I think if we slowly creep our way up the table, season after season, then we can become a more stable side.I agree it is a very relavant comment, however, I didn''t write that piece I''m just a regular reader of the site - a very good fan website if I may say so!Quite honestly, I can see Norwich finishing Mid-Table, with Foulger or the likes taking over at boardroom level at the end of next season. Ourselves, I think we''ll be mid-table most of the season, finishing 16th with Norwich finishing 14th - 8th.Up the Glovers!

http://www.ciderspace.co.uk/ASP/news/news.asp?NewsItemId=9384Can''t wait for the match between ourselves and Norwich at Carrow Road!COYG!

Seems like it''s all over now for the Canaries ...

Plymouth 1 - 2 Barnsley - Jamal Campbell-Ryce

Fulham once again..

It should be next season, if I remember correctly

Wikipedia

Seems to be the trend nowadays - do wrong, receive a penalty, make a big deal out of it and appeal.

[quote user="The Great Drinkell"]One stand out fixture for me this week   Tranmere v Yeovil  Away win [;)]   [/quote]

Alot of grounds have terracing, such as my own Yeovil Town, we have 3 stands of seating and one stand of Standing. Good combination imo. [Y]

Ehh? All I''m getting is some album from some woman''s profile?

http://www.ytfc.com/ytfc.mpl?action=View+Thread&thread=29633Norwich seems popular among Yeovil fans ...

Not if the door is shut [;)]

Charlton on have about 2 fans.

It was a good call for sure.

Haha [:P]
