  1. I haven''t voted yet in the pinkun poll, although I did vote by text in the Radio Norfolk poll.
  2. [quote user="Icecream Snow"]But if you sacked him today, and Mackay''s lawyers have hypothetically told him not to accept any work until Cardiff have paid him off, who do you go for?[/quote] Lennon. Push the boat out a bit, it will be worth it to preserve our Premiership status and all the millions of pounds of revenue that it brings to the club.
  3. No, but our board has got it wrong at least twice before, and so they do have a history of make major mistakes over big decisions. I give you Bryan Gunn, Roeder, Peter Grant and the long drawn out saga over the sacking of Nigel Worthy - most fans would have been all for waving bye bye to Worthy sooner. I groaned out loud as soon as I heard Peter Grant had been appointed, I wasn''t sure about Roeder initially, although I had my doubts as to whether he would be ok. Equally, I had my doubts straight away as to the appointment of Gunny. So as I say, our board do seem to lack a certain amount of nous at times, bless them.
  4. This is a great chance to tell the board what you really think about their backing of an incompetent and inadequate manager. Even if you hang fire on renewal it might ram the message home.
  5. He sounds like a Londoner to me. How come he''s a keen Canary. Is he a Norfukian exile?
  6. Clearly not a lot if he thinks that Hoots is the man to keep us in the Premiership.
  7. Preferably before Saturday. Unfortunately, football managers receive such hugely rewarding compensation packages on being sacked, that very few do the honourable thing.
  8. [quote user="Indy_Bones"]But you can''t really answer the point I made though can you LDC?Why has every single one of our strikers suffered horribly in their quest for goals under Hughton when they were performing before coming under his management?Other clubs aren''t showing such a shocking decline across the board, so why is it happening here???[/quote] That puts into a nutshell what is wrong with Hoot''s style of management. His whole ethos is to try to avoid defeat at all costs, and worry all the time about how the opposition can hurt us with their "quality", paying little regard to how we can hurt them with our own offensive players. Becchio, Hooper, Holt and RVW were all scoring for fun until they fell into Hughton''s clutches - I wonder why??
  9. [quote user="norfolkngood"]because laudrup players the right way gives it a good go in all matches and has earnt the respect of the fans unlike CH[/quote] Absolutely. I think some of Hoot''s small coterie of fanatical supporters must have "altered vision", so that through their eyes that ugly, boring dross that his team serves up looks beautiful.
  10. No. I don''t want anybody who has failed recently at a club.
  11. Oh dear. I don''t know how bad Hoot''s record has to get before certain members of this forum will concede that he is a square peg in a round hole.
  12. I hope "Houghton''s " replacement has a simple name that everybody can remember and spell. A Smith or a Jones or something like that would be ideal.
  13. This awful farce proves that McNally does not have the nous and wisdom that we all thought he possessed. Delia and Michael are much too nice to sack anybody, and so they are sort of blameless to some degree. Oh dear, it''s a pity we don''t have a ruthless board.
  14. Yep, the time is long overdue for the board to put us all out of our misery (and Hoots) and swing that bloody axe. Talk about dithering! If the fool somehow manages a win against Hull, where does that leave us? Going down with the Hughton most probably!
  15. [quote user="Mr Brownstone"]Has he been given any service yet?[/quote] In a word, NO.
  16. [quote user="Green and Yellow fellow"]"I wouldn''t expect us to not get anything out of four games, besides the last four games of the season" TRY THE LAST 8 McNally![/quote] The Radio Norfolk presenter was very slow in not homing in on that. It would have been interesting to have heard McNally wriggle out of that one. He would have had to obfuscate and plonk a bit there. Hardly a forensic interview technique with the great man.
  17. Even Wheely Bin was better than Elmander. Elmander is not fit to lace Mr Holt''s boots.
  18. [quote user="Fergodsake"]or alternatively, we could act like adults, learn from this and make this a place to discuss NCFC as opposed to battle our egos. [/quote] Now there is a sensible idea. Sadly I can''t see it happening, though. Internet forums bring out the worst side of human nature.
  19. Most sides - even non-league teams - would have made more of a fight of it against a poor Fulham side last night. We were just dreadful.
  20. [quote user="Le Juge"]How representative are Radio Norfolk listeners at 11am on a working day of our fan base? I''m a Hughton outer but even I can concede that the demographic would be heavily skewed towards older retired people, and geographically I''m sure that rural areas have more listeners than the urban area of Norwich. Young people don''t listen to Radio Norfolk, and most paying fans will be at work or at school.[/quote] Surely, older retired people are more conservative (with a small "C") and reluctant to change things than a broader more "representative" demographic would be. In which case, you may find a broader age range would vote even more overwhelmingly in favour of managerial change if given the chance to express their point of view. These figures look pretty convincing to me.
  21. [quote user="Huckerbys Boots - Matt"]Can someone please post a link to last nights canary call? Either on iphone/ipad or android. Can never seem to find it. Oh and Hughton Out of course, and just for good measure cause this is a non controversial thread from me for a change, i want us to lose on Saturday.[/quote] So do I. It might make our stupid, procrastinating board wake up, at last!
  22. The word in asterisks was S.LAG (off). I never knew that it was a blasphemous or unacceptable word in this context. I still believe it isn''t.
  23. [quote user="Le Juge"]How many times do we see people shouted down as eccentric idiots or "binners" for expressing a left field or out of the box opinion? There are plenty of legitimate questions to be asked about Wiz''s integrity and intentions, but he was right when he said that beating West Ham could relegate us. It bought Hughton time, at the time when we ideally needed to sack him. That West Ham win saved Hughton his job, and now the boat has sailed, the best candidates have alternative employment and the transfer window is ticking away. Wiz called that one correctly.[/quote]   Of course he was right. As he pointed out, more than once, when did he ever slag off a good and successful manager such as Lambert. Hughton has been the wrong choice for NCFC from day one. He should have been sacked last April or May.
