  9. [quote user="Gingerpele"]Ahh i don''t watch Soccer Saturday, i just have the BBC score thing up on the Internet :P I could do ratings on previous views of the players: Ruddy- 3- Crap, never going to be as good as FF R. MArtin-1- Rubbish, needs replacing, can''t attack or defend. Ward- 4- Looks dodgy, might get better... Barnett-10- Premireship defender, he was quality Adam ''Mr 6'' Drury-6- Solid as ever, reliable :P Crofts-8- Looks really good, better than Rusty Surman-5- Not in the game yet Smith- 8- Basically runs the midfield (not sure what people say about Smith actually....) Hoolahan-1- Not good enough, too small, luxury player is no good at this level, the diamond doesn''t work... Holt-10- God Martin-3- Lazy, arrogant, know where near as good as Holt, not good enough :P Is that accurate? :P[/quote] spot on.. your getting the hang of this ratings lark [:D]
  10. [quote user="Gingerpele"]Can i make ratings from what people have been saying on here?[/quote] of course you can..you could also do ratings from watching soccer saturday [:D]

  12. [quote user="TIL 1010"] [quote user="staffs canary"]great team performance great away following NO penalty would have setteled for a point before game slightly dissapointed with a point after hopefully things looking good for the rest of the season[/quote] Welcome to the messageboard staffs canary but sorry because for your first effort i must award you a dismal 1 out of 10.You have started yet another Forest thread which has not told us anything that numerous other posters have already printed and as for the grammar and punctuation.....well, oh dear me. Now sit back and watch what happens Staffs because i will now be ripped apart by the usual suspects.[;)] [/quote] start as many threads as you like staffs.. people died in wars to protect freedom of speech.. don''t let the  message board nazis grind you down mate [:D]
  13. forest have always had a nasty element i remember drinking after a home  match in the bell sometime in the late 80s and a group of forest fans chucked some sort of cs gas canister through the door [:''(]
  14. [quote user="ZippersLeftFoot"] Yes it is poor and its hard to fathom what is behind such a poor turn out for such an attractive fixture  However there are numerous reasons why their fan base is smaller.  Wigan are a new league club, having only made league status in the 70s and are the youngest club in the premier league.  They are situated in an area where there are a multitude of other "local" professional clubs to follow including some of theworlds largest and most successful teams.  As someone else has pointed out football is not even the town first choice sport,  falling second to Rugby League.  Despite this the club has expanded and taken innovative approaches to progress - who can forget the 3 spaniards sigrelenings, including Roberto Martinez - and I think have yet to suffer a relegation from any of the top four tiers of english football. I for one salute their tenacity to stay at this level.  I am proud that our footabll is a meritocracy and not based on the numbers of fans a club has,whether fuelled by one mans cash or not (besides, how many top clubs nowadays are not funded by one person?)  The fact that they survive enriches our football and their story is a million times more interesting than the tabloids sycophantic regurgitation of chelsea, manu liverpool arsenal news.  The sterile fact is that money has dominated english football for so long that only 4 clubs have won the title in 18 seasons, all on the back of substantial investments yet it is the mouse that roared in Blackburn that is most derided instead of celebrated when each and every club and fan would love to buy the success that they and the supposed big four clubs have had. Cash, sky and greed are bad for english football,  the fact wigan are there and able to take just 60 fans is both a stark validation of that but more importantly an inspiration to all clubs that it is possible to reach and sustain at the top level of football.  Long may we celebrate that as well as mock.     [/quote] blimey i was nearly in tears by the end of all that..seriously though some very good points made [:D]
  15. i know these are hard times but surely you could afford 4 cans of asda pilsner and some batteries for your  radio  without a a bank error ?
  16. compared to what 606 has degenerated into with robbie savage canary call is like a well oiled machine  [:D]
  17. [quote user="Canaries in Bed"]No real difference though, hidden names and locations.[/quote] its much easier to type than talk though [:D]
  18. at least these people have the bollox to ring up rather than just sniping on here  [:D]
  19. [quote user="Cluck"]I like to whack one off in my garden shed before a game... but as I''m boycotting matches right now I wait until Match of the Day starts. [/quote] i feel ashamed for laughing at one of your posts cluck [:D]
  20. well there getting battered tonight against some team of dutch nobodies so he''ll get his chance soon enough [:D]
  21. [quote user="RUDOLPH HUCKER"]Michael Nelson has a serious injury but he''ll probably be back before Zak Whitbread. I wonder why Nelson wasn''t taken off immediately on Saturday? Good to hear PL say we would look for a loan.[/quote] douglas bader will be back before zak whitbread.. don''t forget russell martin is capable at centre back [:D]
  22. maybe they should call it canary text..  not one caller tonight  [:D]
  23. sounds like nobody has actually rang up tonight.. quite funny there just reading out texts even im a banana has been read out twice [:D]
  24. utterly pointless move for him..he''ll get big crowd experience every other week but thats about it..lets be honest gunny could play in goal for celtic most weeks and jimmy greaves could play up front they would still win..absolute joke of a league  [:D]
  25. [quote user="Mr.Carrow"][quote user="pennywise "][quote user="Keith Roads"] Evil Monkey you and others miss the point, life is about priorities, so if you opt out of going to football its your decision alone.  For the record I quite admire people you saved their pennies and scraped together enough wonga to go, that''s life.  Your right  to blame Murdoch, I would add greedy players and agents to that.  What choice does Norwich have but to put the prices up.  I support the club on this issue becase that gives us a chance to progress as a club at long last - after years of Chase, Delia and Doncaster with their ''little Norwich mentality. [/quote] okay keith on a serious note and putting my own tragic circumstances aside .. how will putting up the prices help the club progress if people start thinking they can''t or won''t afford it and decide not to go ? as it seems quite a few people did yesterday..i''ve heard it said others will simply take there place but if thats the case where were they yesterday ?  3000 short of capacity ? i would say it is a fact that norwich enjoy good attendances despite some utter dross on the pitch because the pricing has been  reasonable.  take that away and we become like every other club our size with lots of empty seats.. the best way for the club to ride out the recession is to keep prices reasonable or all they will do is alienate the fans of today and the future and all the good will they have built up will go out of the window and we''ll end up like ipswich at best and coventry middlesboro at worst [:D] [/quote] So you appear to be backing up what i`ve posted several times, that some people would rather watch utter dross getting relegated for moderate prices, than pay a couple of quid more per game to back a club which is investing every penny it possibly can in a superb manager and a highly promising team?  Weird.  I`m just surprised that a campaign to flog off our best players and replace them with non-league freebies in order to reduce ticket prices hasn`t been started yet.  The "little norwich" mentality in a nutshell and a reflection of the very outlook which sent our club to its lowest level in 50 years with "dire" finances according to our CE.   [/quote] i agree with the person that said £29 for a kids season ticket is way  too cheap if thats what they cost? i really  had no idea..but at the end of the day £20 is too much for a 12 year old (not under 12 like your mates daughter ) casual supporter.. no matter where the money is invested..if you think its reasonable and the way forward good luck to you but i''ll be stick to lower grade games unless it changes.. my choice, my perogative , my money  [:D]
