[quote user="Jack Flash"] .....Well I bloody well believe its club employee''s acting under Furher Smiths orders.....its blown up in their face big time, and they need to try and talk the fans around again. Am I alone or does anyone else feel embarrassed by that sort of appalling bad taste remark and after more than 50 years of watching my Team through the good times and the bad times, its not the Smiths or the Board that are making me angry, it is this sort of comment. [/quote] You definitely are not alone, many of the posts on this board in the last few weeks have disgusted me.

I have also been thinking along similar lines. The club have not said they''ve rejected anything, Roeder has disposed of loads of players and staff, including some stalwarts, ie Hucks. He wouldn''t do this unless he was confident he had the money to replace. I am confident that a deal is done/almost done and has been for some time. I am pretty disgusted by some of the comments about Delia and co that have been appearing on this board in the last few days, I think it''s undeserved and disrespectful. I plan to sit tight and then enjoy it all when it happens, which I''m sure it will. And I promise not to gloat and say ''I told you so''.

Are you a binner by any chance? It always makes me chuckle that as soon as anyone gives a level headed argument against the majority opinion on this board, they immediately get accused of being a ''binner''! "Agree with me or I''ll call you nasty names and won''t invite you to my birthday party. Smelly head."  

I know I will get a whole lot of slagging off for this, but here''s how I see it. From what I can see of Delia and how she has conducted herself over the last 10 years, she is a decent person and a supporter of Norwich City FC. She stepped up when she had to and has proved herself over the years. But now she has gone from fairy godmother to some kind of hate figure. I don''t believe for one moment she wants to walk away from the club with loads of profit and shaft the club etc, yet that is how a lot of you have decided to paint this. I honestly believe if we give them time, they will pull something out of the drawer. I am disgusted at some of the comments I have just read on this board. Fickle fans. This is my opinion, like it or lump it. You need not bother replying to tell me how awful my opinion is as this is all I have to say on the matter.

[quote user="Carlos Valderrama"] By buying up as many shares as possible without touching Delias.  I believe once he gets to a certain figure he can force the clubs hand a bit. This doesn''t need to be done in a hostile way though.  He fits Delias model as the perfect person to take over, plus he also has the financial clout to make something happen. I have already said in another thread, I think more has happened behind the scenes than the club is letting on.  I await an announcement of some sorts from 1st September onwards.  After all if the Cullum is made public now then any player we look at will double in price.  500k will become 1m + etc, exactly what is happening to QPR. There were rumours at one point that the Turners were a front for Cullum.  How true this was I dont know, they are linked in business thats for sure...They have also been on the scene for a while now appearing to do very little.  Was it an insider fact finding mission?  [/quote] How are Cullum and the Turners linked in business?

It''s only 9:58am, give them a chance!!!

Hmmm, yeah that''s if the Turners actually HAVE £10million to ''bung'' into the club! Everyone seems to think they are richer than they actually are. On paper, they have money but in reality it is tied up in a company which ius based in an industry in turmoil.

I think it’s a little unfair that whenever anyone mentions Hucks on here, in whatever context, they immediately get told to ‘get over it, he’s gone, he’s never coming back’ etc. All the guy was saying is that there’s a decent video of Hucks on Youtube. Yes, Hucks has gone and yes, most people have finally got over it, but it doesn’t mean that his name can never be mentioned on here again, does it?

Currently on maternity leave - but looking to go back to work part time in early October. I can''t stand the thought of returning to my job at Norwich Union though, so if anyone knows of any part time work where I can work Wednesdays and Fridays please let me know!

[quote user="Tookie140"]The turners business will be worth 1 billion by 2010 i ''ve heard.[/quote]   I wouldn''t get too excited. The Turner''s business is not exactly in a booming industry, I very much doubt they have the means to pump any millions into the club at the moment. It''s not called the ''credit crunch'' for nothing.

[quote user="Yellow Rider"] [quote user="canaries in Bed"]Problem is mate, that he has been a shadow of himself and has not cut it in a weaker league than the Prem. You never know, if he is injury free and can get some sort of form, then if signed, he would be a very good signing. I''m sure there will be a lot of other teams out there who want him. I have to say this season, every player has about 10 teams after him.[/quote] I know nothing about this guy but have checked the stats. and it has to be said that he has virtually disappeared at Rangers since this ....''serious knee injury''. Forgive my pessimism but if he is uveiled today, tomorrow or whenever I will be distinctly underwhelmed. We''ve had too many foreign players here who have been inadequately researched before they arrived and have been expensive white elephants.   [/quote] You are right, unfortunately.

What does it matter where he''s been on holiday?! Whether he''s been to Florida or Bognor Regis, as long as he''s back soon and can get cracking on building up a playing squad and a backroom staff, it really makes no odds. This board is quite amusing at times!
