  1. Yes to both, First Q, For the club it's imperative, we can't afford not to be in the Premier Lge next season. We have no Buendia, Lewis, Godfrey, Maddison, Murphy's to sell. If we don't go up and we lose the players we expect to lose, Krul, Max, Pukki, Todd, those expensive wingers out on loan then I don't see how we could expect to be competitive next season. Unless of course the American takeover becomes realistic. For me, I'm more concerned about my connection to the club, I've matured as a supporter over the last few years, with Farke and the young players I felt a real connection to the club, even when things weren't going well. I'd happily yo-yo without putting too much pressure on the need to finish 17th, than come 17th with a Dean Smith type. Realistically as club what can we ever achieve? We don't do cup runs. As a supporter I want to take my boy away, enjoy some wins and be connected to the club and for him to have that same connection that my dad gave to me despite (being from Leeds) having no real connection. Do we have to be understanding that beating Man City at home or drawing with Liverpool at Anfield is the pinnacle of supporting Norwich City? RE-2nd Q, Firstly we have a squad that the bulk of have won the Championship at a canter twice. Secondly, we've clearly got a good set of players, you don't go 9 unbeaten topping the league for some time if you haven't. They say the signs of a good side is a side that can still get something even when not playing well and we didn't play well during that unbeaten stretch. I said at the time that our results would start matching our performances, Smith couldn't get any improvement or seemed to didn't think we needed to improve and guess what happened, our results started matching our performances. There's no reason why we shouldn't be regalvanised and ensure that we are in the playoffs.
  2. Genuinely criminal if he doesn't play for us next year, whether he wants to or not. I'm still excited by the lad.
  3. No matter which side of the fence you sit on with Todd, I think you now have to question how seriously Todd takes his football. Id love him to do well but it's been years since we've seen the player we thought we had. People want to deny it on here but he clearly has issues, multiple times he's returned from breaks unfit, which then coincide with an injury and an extended break He had a chance to revitalise his career and go back to the Premier League with Bournemouth and couldn't make it happen. Your right that no one will be buying him in January. Would there be much interest in him on a free, I'd suggest only from Championship clubs and maybe something overseas. It's imperative were promoted this season, we need the money because we have no assets to sell that would enable us to be competitive next season, unless Todd is telling Wagner he's absolutely back, all issues are sorted and he's chomping at the bit, I'd rather cut my ties and go without him.
  4. Why on god's green earth would we extend Todd's contract?
  5. "His style of play, track record in terms of developing young talents" Quote from the Pinkun. Genuine Q, which young talents has he developed? I can't remember Hudds selling any young lads for ££.
  6. It's nonsense. Meaningless nonsense. Its not a 'shout' or a 'suggestion' it's just garbage.
  7. There's obviously a team in there, you don't play poorly for so long, yet go 9 unbeaten and top the table if you don't have good players.
  8. Krul Max Hanley Gibson Byram Dimi Kenny Cantwell Sorensen Dowell Placheta Hernandez Pukki Hughill Idah All still here from our last Championship win.
  9. Honestly anyone would would think Skipp was a clone of Makele and Yaya while Emi was a Messi/Ronaldo cross the way they're spoke about on here.
  10. The bulk of this squad and spine of the team, won the Championship once maybe even twice within the last 3 seasons. Yes we've lost Skipp and Buendia but that's it. With the additions of Hayden, Sara, Nunez and Sarge, this squad very much should be aiming for automatic promotion at worst.
  11. Another message of nonsense and zero rationale or relatively, other than, you don't like him. Great posts, good chat.
  12. I've just watched a video of it happening in a low level game, that's what citied the Q. I do remember it happening to Martinelli at Wolves last season, he tried to prevent a throwing that chased after and fouled the man with the ball and given two yellow cards.
  13. Gibbs very much walked a tightrope yesterday.
  14. Nothing to do with football then? So if you were offered a much more high profile job on more money, you wouldn't take it? If you had a dream or something you wanted to pursue outside work and your employers were on board, you wouldn't?
  15. Was there a case for young Morris to be sent off yesterday? Around 50 minutes he pulled Max back who had started an attack from the half way line, Max passed the ball to Sarge(?) and Morris clattered him. Had the ref of stopped the game for the first one he would have undoubtedly been booked and he was booked for the tackle on Sarge.
  16. He's got no value now, And his goals would be far more important than the couple of million we might scrape.
  17. I'm ready to let Teemu go come May. He can have some sublime and silky touches, then be his own worst enemy. If we could get another 10-12 goals out of him and he could fire us back to playoffs/final, could be a nice farewell for all. Sargent isn't the answer for me, we need a proper finisher. And goal aside against Reading I've not been at all impressed with Idah
  18. You can't actually believe that, You can't believe that without him we'd have won the Champ twice at a canter. That our first attempt upto Covid and with just our kids weren't actually that bad. In hindsight our recruitment was not good for last season but no one on here was unhappy with Tzolis, Rashica, Gilmour, it just didn't work out. Smith was a disaster appointment, said by many right from the start. He should have been sacked pre-WC but he's gone now. Although recently he's not at the top of his game, Webber still has credit in the bank.
