Wilder and Sheffield United this season...
splendidrush replied to TeemuVanBasten's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
The Season Lambert left, there were 3 prize jobs, Liverpool, Everton and Villa, Liverpool took Rodgers, Everton took the manager of Wigan and I think Lambert panicked. Seeing the plumb jobs disappearing, he forced a move, sueing the Club in the process and his career has nosedived ever since. -
Could it be that the takeover was a ruse to get Lambert out of the door?......

Binner......

They won't be too disappointed down the road, they're already talking about Klinsmann and Tierry Henry......🤣

Coventry v Brentford
splendidrush replied to Midlands Yellow's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Truth is, we have 'previous' being top, we've been Promoted 4 times in 11 years, we know how to cope with the pressure of being up there and pretenders chasing us. So when Brentford went top I was more interested to see if they could back it up with a run of wins...... they couldn't. -
No, that's Northampton, who managed a draw at everybody's 2nd favourite Team.....😉

Beeeeeez...... Beeeeeez are falling apart again... 😘😎👍🍻🍺

There's no denying that I loved the Lambert years and was heartbroken when he left, then he wanted money as well, then he celebrated in front of us and the love evaporated. After several iffy spells around the Premiership he ended up down the road, a step too far. Watching him take them down to division 3 and failure to get Promoted was truly joyful and as already mentioned, the rivalry is all but dead as a contest for the foreseeable. What gives me the most pleasure, as someone who had to suffer their 'glory days' is a cheeky peek on TWTD to witness the delusional entitlement of their fans, many of whom weren't even born when they were relevant.

middlesbrough vs rotherham
splendidrush replied to cambridgeshire canary's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Wonder what AJT has to say about it? -
Not sure I'd put it quite like that but it's true that they did nothing before 1960 and nothing after 1982, so a 22 year hiatus, yet they bang on about their history, using words like tradition, like it gives them the right to beat Swindon on a Saturday afternoon (it doesn't). Truth is, they've been left behind, returning to the footballing backwater that they were before Ramsey and Robson gave them some memories. It's sad really, that so many of them spend more time living in the late 70s than the reality of today. Still, even flares and mullets were popular, once.😜

Vacancy at Crystal Palace.........

Call goes out to Diane Abbott..... -
Yep, it's gonna be an aerial barrage, Championship football at its best.....
-
....that's not very friendly 😕.....

This, I wish the Teams around them would show some form and put them away. Then again, if they got all the way to Wembley and got tonked in an empty Stadium, that would be worth watching.

What is concerning is how difficult it is to survive in the Premiership nowadays, we got buried last year and if we do go up we're likely to be installed as favourites to go back down. Even big spending Villa only just survived last season and Leeds, another supposedly big Club have had to spend big to keep above the red line, with no guarantee that will see them safe next year. Being a yo yo Club is our place, atm, it's going to be tough getting beyond that, we're going to need good management just to prevent things going the other way and ending up like that lot down the road.

He was never more than a good Championship striker, he had several seasons in the Premiership with various Clubs and the goals evaporated. At his age League One is ideal, he's not as quick but his years at a higher level gives him the nous to prosper. Good luck to him, but not for us anymore.

QPR now takes on different dimension
splendidrush replied to pete's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Our rivals at the top have tough games coming up this week, good chance to reinstate our margin, not concerned about QPR. -

Seasonal greetings to all my suffolk friends
splendidrush replied to Bill's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
You've got friends? -
Little tip, if you're looking for responses, try keeping it a little shorter, too much to cover in your initial post,but most welcome nonetheless. With regards Emi and Todd, I feel you've answered your own question, that last year they were very young and had very little experience around them, and that's without all the injuries the Club had to contend with. From what we're seeing atm, it's apparent that they've both done a lot of growing up over the last year or so, hopefully we can hold on to them long enough to enjoy that maturity next season.
