    Personally I think olej is making quite a valid point admittedly he may have put his point across incorrectly but the message it something I would have to agree with. How many times do we groan in mass numbers when a pass goes astray, a chance goes begging or we concede? If we are gona have any chance on Sunday we as a crowd will have a massive impact on the outcome, if we cheer the team for the full 90 minutes no matter what is happening on the pitch on Sunday that gives us an edge and sometimes that bit extra the players give when the crowd is behind them is important.

    I have to agree with A1 not sure there was much Marshall could do, It was a quality ball into an area where any keeper would struggle to have got anything on it. Have to admit at the time it did look a blatant foul but seeing it again I''m not so sure, but you do see them given. What was more frustrating was the the handball decision because from where we were sitting it looked so blantant and we were no further away from the incident than the referee who had a perfect view.

       Another one off the Crewe Alexandra production line but seems to have gone stale abit there since making his debut a few years ago, He''s also just been shipped off to Lincoln I understand after a bust up with Crewe''s Manager. On his day he can really influence a game with his tough tackling, work rate and goals something our midfield desperately lacks.    A very talented player who''s future seems to be away from Crewe after reading their managers comments and looks like being available for around £100-300k, I think he definitely someone who could improve us next season and being 21 represents a good investment (especially if Sammy leaves in the summer). Someone to keep an eye on.

       Though I''ve been very optimistic about staying in the Championship this season in the past I think the majority will agree the result and performance today coupled with results elsewhere means we face an almost impossible task to gain enough points to stay up (unless some kind of miracle occurs of course). So I think the time has come to write off this season and build for next, and even though I''ve watched them a number of times this season and haven''t been impressed the majority of the time it has to be time to give some of the academy lads more chances in the 1st team.    The worrying thing for me is that when I have watched them most don''t look like they could make the step up to championship level but with little or no pressure on them at the moment because of our expectations that we will be relegated could it be the perfect time to introduce them? I mean the only way they will become better players is if they gain experience from playing 1st team football regularly and considering some of them will have too become more prominent players for us next season could this be the best time for them to try find their feet in competitive 1st team games instead of next season when we will need to start strongly?     Could a few strong performances from players brought through our own academy in our final handful of games be a silver lining for you in a disastrous season? Could seeing a number of names in the starting line up that have come through the academy galvanize the crowd at Carrow Road and create an atmosphere where we can get behind some home grown players that wont feel under intense pressure and because of it produce some signs of footballing ability and intelliegence that we can try to enjoy for the rest of the season?    Or is it too early to be playing them instead of players that might be able to keep us up but leave next season if we ultimately fail and get relegated?

    [quote user="norfolkchance1"]Is it just me or is £26 to sit in an open air (golf course style) stand at Blackpool absolutely ridiculous.

    How come it is us that always have to pay this sort of price, earlier in season we went to Forest and were charged £26/27 yet last week I looked in Prestons programme and their supporters were being charged £20 to go there.

    Someone is taking the p*ss[/quote]Preston V Blackpool is a big derby game for both clubs so the only thing I can suggest is that there is some kind of gentlemans agreement between the two clubs for cheaper tickets for away fans at both of their stadiums. But even £20 seems alot of money to go to their stadium.

    Like it Missing in Action. In fairness Lupoli was probably on quite abit and he hasn''t been that impressive in many games and majority of the time seemed to dribble straight into opposition defenders. Would have prefered him to stay but not really gona lose any sleep about him leaving and I honestly can''t see him scoring that many at Sheffield United.

    Come the summer and our loan players go back, we loan more players (hopefully a slighty less amount than this season) for the forthcoming season and try to add a 2/3 players on a permanent basis. Its called building a squad on limited funds it doesn''t happen overnight. And personally I have not got a problem with that because without the loan players we would be in a much worse position than we are now. When a player (who ever they are permanently contracted to) puts on a Norwich City shirt we should all get behind them not complain about them.

    He''s put on a lot of weight now and was not considered fit for the 1st team at NEC where he has been on loan at for 1/2 the season. The guy had talent when he 1st came through but has really gone downhill now and I think he will struggle to get fit before the end of the season. One to be avoided im afraid.

    [quote user="Football 101"]I would have to disagree with Tresor Kandol he hasn''t really set league 1 on fire this season at Millwall, though I think Darren Ward would have been a decent signing on loan but do we really want another player who is only just returned from injury and is looking to regain fitness and match sharpness.[/quote]

    [quote user="Fabregas- Poor Mans Ian Crook"]

    Glad he has gone, didn''t look at all interested when on the pitch. Put in a few good corners and a few good crosses nowhere near as much quality as some on here make out. The quality balls are nearly as few and far between as croft but without the passion. I''d play Croft over Bell anyday.

    [/quote]I agree that he did look quite lazy and lacked passion at some games, but the two times he played on the right he looked so much more comfortable and his crossing was much more improved and consistent even in such a small amount time. But if it means we can bring in a centre back or a striker I will be quite pleased.

     Personally I''m quite pleases with this signing hes a better left winger than any we have in the squad and it means Hoolahan can be played in the hole wheres hes alot more effective. Should give us a good balance which we havn''t really had this season and hopefully means we will be able to get more crosses into the box from both wings. I believe Crooky worked with him at Sydney so he obviously knows what hes about , lets hope he does well.  We Want Worthy/Lappin will not be pleased though.

    Whats going on with the Carl Cort bashing? I''ve been impressed most times I''ve seen him and he looked like our best player in the FA Cup replay game, once he gets up to scratch he could be a good player for us. And when has he been light weight??? he looked strong and held the ball up well every time I''ve seen him.

    In fairness to Matty as well he had every right to have ago from that position (probably should have tried earlier than he did, but nevermind). And none of the other players were having ago or got pi$$ed off at Lups on tuesday night when he kept taken extra touches instead of passing. And also Sammy is the Penalty taker but can''t blame him for wanting to take it... sorry Arturo.

    For me realistically our choices at the moment are...    Dowie    Ince (slim chance, because I think he''d probably want a more high profile job)    Boothroyd    Holloway    Mcallister    Pardew    Crook    MackayAnd if I''m honest non really fill me with confidence
