  1. Totally agree, they have had their time in the sun and whilst the club has seen success there have been numerous occasions where the opportunity to push on has been there on a plate but has not been taken. The self funding model whilst nobel, is not something which can realistically work in this era of the game and being old enough to remember that other dark era of the club in the mid 90’s it’s hard to ignore certain similarities which have been creeping in over the last few years. As for the defensive midfielder problem it seems to be in tandem with the general defensive issue where we’ve not had a solid unit since the late 90’s/ early 00’s and if it hasn’t been obvious enough in that time I don’t hold out too much hope!
  2. Literally couldn’t be more disconnected with this club right now. I hope to god that the Shareholders meeting next week harks the beginning of the long overdue end of the Smith and Jones era as I honestly can’t see how anything is going to change until the both of them (and the Webbers) have been put out to pasture.
  3. Ok brand new, obviously not someone’s alternative account/ Ipswich troll poster, I’ll bite…. How do you see things getting any worse than they already are? I assume you can see where the next win is coming from as I certainly can’t on current evidence!
  4. Regrettably out but I can’t see our board replacing him with a better option.
  5. Most of the time I think you get a lot of unfair stick Lakey, in this instance through I can’t honestly see how you can find any positives from that. All I see is a side who look incapable of winning a single game on present form.
  6. Whilst I like to think of myself as a positive fan at this point I feel kind of torn - I think it’s got to the stage where a change of manager is clearly needed however, I don’t honestly think Farke is the problem, the club needs a change from top to bottom. As history shows this is not going to happen even if Farke is sacked I suspect whoever comes in will find themselves in a similar, unenviable position sooner or later.
  7. Utterly gutted to hear this. More a lurker than poster nowadays but always enjoyed Lapp’s sense of humour and posts. RIP Lapps and condolences to your family.
  8. Talksh*te and their ilk survive on controversy - all they need to do is push the right buttons and wait for the angry callers to rise to the bait and phone up whilst rubbing their hands together and laughing maniacally as the dosh roles in. I guess they made a rod for their own back when hiring an overweight Scottish alcoholic - his bar bill alone must count for 99% of the stations outgoings.
  9. Vs Southampton in 1990. Norwich won 3-1 with Neil Ruddock scoring an own goal. Remember turning up on the day and paying on the turnstile to sit in the South Stand - none of this £50 membership malarkey!
  10. Having been 4-0 down at half time despite putting in a pretty decent performance it really wasn’t a disgraceful result. It gets arguably one of the hardest games of the season out of the way early, the players kept their heads up and kept fighting for the whole 90 minutes and we caused one of the top teams in Europe problems throughout the game. The main thing is not letting our heads drop, learning quickly and cutting out the silly mistakes as much as possible, at least with Klose and Zimmermann to return there will be more defensive options available. At the end of the day, if we can play like that against most of the sides outside the Top 6 we should have enough to make a good go of it.
  11. The gloating on TWTD about us losing to one of the top sides in the Prem is really quite pathetic. I guess it shows how dismal things are in darkest Suffolk when they are more concerned with what their nearest neighbours are doing than the plight of their own rabble.
  12. The logic behind that one makes my head spin like I’ve been playing a friendly against a certain bin dipping midfielder. 😵
  13. Who knows, the stars seen by Flynn Downes’ poor victim might magically attach themselves to their horrendous shirts, give the simpletons something else to brag about...
  14. Yet we are still living in their shadow.... apparently!
