We were never in the bottom 3

[quote user="ricardo"]I predicted 43 points and the boys outdid my by a single point. I must learn not to underestimate them next season.A win at Man City, whodda thunk it?[:)][/quote]Well done Ricardo, a Fine poster with dry pants!! :-)

We have improved on last season, 11th place.

Well done Hughton, you have achieved your objective!! I look forward to next season!

HAHA, mystic meg!!! :-)

YessssssssQuality Header

admitting most teams players are technically better than ours is a bit worrying!

Swansea have failed to score in 7 games this season (most in the league), we have FTS in only 2 (WBA & Man u). Just highlights the different styles.

So you would be unhappy if we finished 17th! Talk about terminally dim.

Good old Cody, made the difference to get Covs first win of the season!!

If Ipswich can beat Arsenal at home, anyone can!

IMO you rarely beat anyone in the championship with ease!Such a tight league, always has been.

[quote user="Snakepit Lass"]i''m for thinking positive but its the weak teams that we struggle with remember[/quote]Thats what i thought too, but when i looked at the stats against the teams in the bottom half we are second in the table, with Cardiff and Leeds way down the list. They say stats never lie.......... [:)]http://stats.football365.com/dom/ENG/D1/vbothalf.html

Lee Croft could fill that Right midfield birth, he was always carrying a few extra pounds!

Feed the Horse he''ll score!!!!OTBC

[quote user="Spain-boy"]What a disaster for you lot. Im only being honest. You have a donkey of a goalkeeper, I thought that when I saw them goals against Everton. Nothing compared to Forster who looked to be fair brilliant for you lot. Hoolahan is with the big boys now and looked out of his depth. No service to Jackson who doesnt look too convincing anyway. Gaps everywhere. I have to laugh cos some of you fans had us down as relegation fodder. For a start Casper Ankergren who we let go was better than Cruddy.!! Yes, lets see how Leeds do tomorrow but all I do know is that we looked better than both teams on that pitch tonight and win or lose we  wont play like Norwich did tonight. You looked out of your depth in this league and you cant blame it on ´what happened last year´´ cos u have a better manager dont ya??? [/quote]U really should wait until you''ve played before making comments like this!!

[quote user="I am a Banana"]Fox was a 7 - was the most impressive of the new blood. C MArtin was also a 7/8 as he was doing his and jacksons job tonight [y] looks much fitter this year. Hoolahan was the MOTM he moved, he passed, he created chances but jackson isn''t clever enough to read his passes! [/quote]IMO Fox was quiet (was happy passing it backwards and sideways) and was I was more impressed with crofts performance.C.Martin and Jackson didnt really get great service, apart from long balls hoofed up to them

[quote user="GJP"][quote user=""][quote user="GJP"] [quote user="Largey"] Fox - 6.5 - Looked like a solid replacement for Clingan. Does not pull out of a challenge, and provided a good range of crossfield passing. Crofts - 7.5 - Great finish, good distrbution, good awareness, great tackling. A hard worker and looks like he could be a new fans favourite. Surman - 6.5 - Glad we have him in the side, I believe he will provide an alternative attacking source along with Hoolahan. Solid if unspectacular. Hoolahan - 6.5 - Some great control and turning on the ball, but then takes too many touches and loses it. Frustratingly has a habit of over-hitting a throughball, but he scared the defence as they were backing off him. .[/quote] I actually think you''re being kind on Surman to rate him the same as Fox and Hoolahan. For me that was a disappointing performance from Surman. Just didn''t do enough, no urgency, a weak performance. You would have to say, based on that performance, Simon Lappin was unlucky to be out of the team because he would have put more into the game. [/quote]   What a load of shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiite! [/quote] Not really. Read it, take it onboard. You might learn something. [/quote]I was dissapointed in Surman, looked afraid to put his foot in!

Really dissapointed after tonight, but its only 1 game, Just trying to think back to last season to realise theres plenty of games to go, U really notice the difference from League 1 to the championship especially in the finishing.Crofts looked fairly decent (a gary holt type player) Really gets around the pitch, only worry was how central he was playing, leaving R.Martin exposed. (on tonights performance bad thing to do!!)Was a bit dissapointed in Surman looked a bit afraid to get ''stuck in''R.Martin gets dragged out of position so easily and leaves massive holes at right back. But the defence in general looked like they had never met each other.Hoolahan got on the ball, but there was a lack of movement up front to give him anoutlet on a few occasions.OTBC!!

I just dont understand people like smudger.Do they want to see Norwich do well or not, its like they have there own little power trip where they want the club to fail to prove a personal point!! I just dont see what is to be gained from this.Whats wrong with a bit of optimism!!We all know the club has made mistakes in the past and probably will do in the future but from what i can see they are trying to learn from there previous mistakes i.e the reliance on loan signings.
