  1. [quote user="jas the barclay king"][quote user="Blainsey"] [quote user="paul moy"]There''s only one man who would never re-sign Hucks and he has now gone.  It''s a no-brainer with season-ticket renewals on the horizon !!!  [/quote]   Just think of the popularity the new guy would get!! O''Neill''s first capture was Fleck...fans loved him for it.   [/quote] remind me again how that ended up? Hucks will not keep us up.. the rest of the squad is poor.. we dont wscore enough goals and Darren is just 1 man... he has gone, accept it, last season proved he could no longer do it at this level, why would he do it now? jas :) [/quote]he''ll be back, accept it you were wrong about roeder and you''ll be wrong about huckerby
  2. would it be unrealistic to think Huckerby may have something in his contract that says if Norwich ever want him back that he can leave? Huckerby loves the club, Huckerby wants to play for us, i have yet to see anyone this season that is half as good as Huckerby on the wing! i would love him back, it would get Carrow Road rocking again and might just keep us from getting relegated this season! Huckerby has probably been on the phone to the club already to see if he can come back!
  3. [quote user="jas the barclay king"][quote user="pete_norw"] [quote user="We Want Worthy Back"]Am actually looking forward to Saturday more than ever now.[/quote] Hands up who thinks we will get Hucks back for a few games now. I have a feeling we will and also think this saturday we will be looking at a sell out [/quote] Hucks is under contract to another club.. how many times do we have to go through this?! jas :) [/quote]probably as many times as people had to go through with you when you kept saying we won''t sack roeder!
  4. there will be no need to organise one, it''ll happen
  5. "i think the position in the table isn''t the position of a team with the amount of quality we have when we play well"  for christ sake according to Roeder we''ve played well in most of the games and it''s been a injustice that we haven''t got anything out of them, "relegation is not a issue" yes it is you pratt, leave our club now!
  6. was undecided weather to go or not, when i got home tuesday my ticket was in my house, damm that auto pay cup scheme
  7. [quote user="Titanic"][quote user="Canary Poirot"] Peter Grant''s record at Norwich: Played 54; Won 18; Drawn 12; Lost 24. Assuming they''re all league games (which they''re not but for the sake of the comparison bear with me) that''s 1.22 pts per game. Glenn Roeder''s record at Norwich before today: Played 60; Won 20; Drawn 14: Lost 26. That''s 1.23 pts per game assuming the same as above. Roeder''s record is no better than Grant''s. Grant was rightly sacked. Roeder should be sacked tonight. Enough is enough. [/quote] No he wasn''t, he did the honorable and resigned.  [/quote]after a good chat and a few quid in his pocket, hopefully they''re having the same conversation with Roeder now!
  8. I''d agree with that, i went yesterday and didn''t think Sheffield Utd were anything special but yet again another defeat, what do i know though because Roeder says Sheffield will be one of the 5 teams that''ll be promoted this season

Grant was rightly sacked. Roeder should be sacked tonight. Enough is enough. [/quote] Big difference though... Roeder took over Grants team.. Grant took over Worthy''s. I just worked out that if you analyse Roeder''s record not counting the games we took points from he has P26 W0 D0 L26. That''s no points per game so sack him and let him burn in hell.   [/quote] Yeah, and Worthy took over Hamilton''s....There is a big difference, a year later we weren''t in the same s**t though.   [/quote] Spot on AVIVADIVA. The problem with Nutty Nigel is that he is a complete board apologist. He is without a doubt one (of a number) of fans who are resistent to change, and will put up any number of strawman arguements to defend the status quo as his reply to mine demonstrates. I do not know his motivation for doing so, but he does it everyday without fail posting continual support for a board and management which are beyond the pale. This club is sinking and sinking fast. Change is required. The facts do not lie. Glenn Roeder is doing an appalling job. Roeder''s track record over his whole managerial career at every club he has managed is POOR. At every club. Why Nutty Nigel supports Roeder is beyond my comprehension. No doubt he''ll say "he''s had no money", or as above, "he inherited a rubbish team". But as AVIVADIVA pointed out, the latter argument has been demolished. Good managers turn things around and sustain the turn around - just as Worthington did. Roeder has not. As for the "no money" argument - this is not true. He''s spent money bringing in players - the question is are they good enough? Evidence suggests not. And he has failed to bring in quality strikers. Next I expect Nutty to say "well who would you bring in as a replacement?" I say this is another pointless question. If we sacked Roeder tomorrow, we would be flooded with applications. We are one of the top 30 clubs in England. There are plenty of managers out there who would give their right leg for a shot at this job. And there are plenty of good managers doing well with no money (Grayson who has just left Blackpool for Leeds - we missed out there) - in fact there are a large number of Championship sides with lower budgets far out performing us this season. Some don''t even get half the support we get. Money is being wasted - overpaying vastly underperforming players. They are either not worth their money, or they are not being motivated by Roeder. Either way, I simply cannot see how we can continue backing Roeder. A new manager would freshen things up. Give the players motivation to impress him. We, I am certain, would have a mini revival. And if we get him in quickly, could get a new striker in before the end of January. Roeder must go. Without question. Or is it the case, as I have posted elsewhere, that the club won''t sack Roder as the cost of doing so to the club would be greater than getting relegated with Roeder at the helm and losing our Championship revenue next season? If that is the case, the people who negotiated Roeder''s contract need to get a new job, as they are simply not up to the task. We must beat the drop. [/quote] wrong, wrong, wrong I am afraid, he may not be very good but he has been given a pittance to spend and a whole new team required. this season, and the results are there for all to see. change Roeder now and you will be screaming for the next poor sucker to go in 12 months. You need money to survive in football today, and nobody at the present time is prepared to spend it, where it matters at NCFC, on players. despite having a full house every home game, we seem to be the poorest team in this league, and no doubt will struggle to compete financially with the "big clubs" in Div 1 next year. [/quote]But Roeder didn''t have to release Huckerby, sell Brown sell Strihavka sell Shackell sell Lewis refuse to play Lappin, loan out Martin Spillane and Cureton, waste money on Gibbs, Henry, Henville Koroma & Sibierski
  10. [quote user="steve o"][quote user="Matt"] Then When Delia first took over at Carrow Road we needed her, there is no arguing the fact, at that exact time we needed her. We were 24 hours from adminstration, Club staff were being told that their jobs would be going and only one person (or Smith and Jones as a couple) stepped forward. It was the best news the Football Club could have had and things were revealed such as what a state the finances were in after the Chase regime. How the Club could not afford one owner to make all decisions take over again and that the Club would slowly move forward. Now The first thing that annoys me is that when we are doing well, ie the Worthy era, Delia is all over the papers, TV, available for interviews and sits with the crowd. When things are going bad, ie under Roeder, she is nowhere to be seen! We don''t hear from her, see her and the Club loses all publicity. If a new owner took over at Norwich, im pretty sure that they would question the state of the finances the Club has been left in. But would a new owner be able to take over, it seems we have regime that does not wish for anyone else to be involved and if they do such as the Turners, they are shown the door. Future We needed Delia and she certainly helped us but it''s knowing when to stand down and not souring the reign. Worthy hung on too long and didn''t want to let go, though now we know that meant getting £500,000! So what is Delia getting for hanging on? She either needs to start being more honest and open about the Club or the people who once respected her are going to turn against her.   [/quote]no we wasn''t, there was a package already in place[/quote]should of highlighted that first time

  12. Well said! everything is ok though because remember Glenn Roeder said that relegation is not a issue, maybe it''ll be a issue next season in league 1 glenn!
  13. well he didn''t bring cort on yesterday so you won''t need to worry about him getting injured, i would recall cureton but roeder is to pig headed to do this, he''s already stated that cureton will spend 3 months at barnsley, which is nonsense to say that when we don''t have many forwards!
  14. why the hell should we give him another 2 games, out of the last 14 league games he''s lost 10! get him out now so we can get points on the board and hope we stay up!
  15. I was at the game today, Sheffield utd were nothing special but yet again another defeat! that is now 10 defeats in 14 league games also 9 defeats in last 10 away games, this  is now a complete joke under Glenn Roeder, i was on canary call after the game telling Neil Adams that we haven''t really got a bad bunch of players but Roeder can''t get them winning and it is results that we need and Roeder isn''t getting any as the last 14 games prove, Roeder needs to be forced to resign or sacked now otherwise it''s league 1 for sure! a new manager is needed to get our players winning just as Billy Davies is now getting Forest to do, see they didn''t have any problems going to the worst side in the division by a mile and winning!
  16. surprised at that really but 2.5million is good money!
  17. i still wouldn''t put money on it, he may go with a 5 man midfield and sib up front on his own, his tactics and team selection surprise me every week, your right though he hasn''t got a choice but this is glenn roeder we''re talking about, a manergerial god!
  18. Roeder today all but confirmed Lupoli will start tomorrow, about time too Roeder, but we all know the only reason is because Russell is suspended,
  19. [quote user="Beauseant"][quote user="Titanic"][quote user="PhatCanary"][quote user="Potless Percy "] If you have something genuine to offer I suggest you approach the local press.   [/quote] I second that! Sorry but to many wind-ups on this site for me to take this serious. [/quote] Why have you jumped to the conclusion that it is a wind up. Where is your evidence to support your comment?. [/quote]   Why have you jumped to the conclusion that it isn''t? [/quote]hmmm just trying to think of former players who would actually of made the millions of pounds that would be needed to do this!!!
  20. [quote user="bristol_canary"]what if we are 3-0 up within the first 10 mins? [/quote]then i''ll be in fantasy land! but it''s more likely we''ll be 3 down in the first 10 minutes, we''ll just wait and see shall we?
  21. [quote user="gary "] and that supports them how exactly Boo at half time and full time if necessary , moan about the players , but to chant roeder out is not the best encouragement for the  team We normally do okay at the blunts - fancy getting a point at worst   [/quote]cheering them this season hasn''t exactly helped them has it? and chanting roeder out isn''t booing the players
  22. [quote user="gary "] if you are bothering to spend time and money watching your team away from home then you must support them at all times - two things I will be doing on Saturday 1 watching my son play at Morley at midday 2 haircut at 3.00   [/quote]like i said i''ll be chanting ROEDER OUT
  23. i''ll just be chanting roeder out, he''ll get the message!
  24. 4-0 Sheffield, another poor display, Roeder says in his interview after the game that it was a injustice, also when questioned about the fans calling for his head at the game he says that they know nothing about football anyway and they watch too much tv, Roeder sacked or resigns sunday!
