[quote user="Supermarket Prodigy"]I thought Drury did confirm sort of on twitter and Radio Norfolk?[/quote] Pretty much. He said that despite recent news, Holt did text him to say that he would still like to play a part in the testimonial.

He tweeted about how people should by tickets for Drury''s testimonial, to show our appreciation for his loyalty. Interesting timing.

I was sat at my desk about to resume revision for tomorrow''s exam, when I thought I had better reply to a tweet first before I forgot. My timeline was full of the news, and needless to say that I still haven''t got round to that revision. Early morning in the library for me tomorrow [:(]

When is the transfer window officially open?  

[quote user="Bethnal Yellow and Green"] [quote user="alysha"]No way. Owen has openly stated numerous times how he prefers to not play whilst being at big club rather than playing regularly for a smaller club. Not the sort of attitude we want around our squad. Such a waste of a talent.[/quote] I think that is a little harsh on him - he has said that because he knows that his body just can''t cope with player 20 - 30 games a year. He knows if he went to a smaller team this would be require of him, but at someone like Man U he would only be called upon 10 games a season at most.   He had a bad experience at Newcastle where huge amounts of pressure was put on him to play whilst injured or to rush comebacks as he was their star and desperately needed - he never wants to get into that position again. [/quote] I''m sorry but I think it has little to with how many games he believes he would physically be able to play in a season. He said how a player is judged by what they win in their career, he accepted that he could move to another club and play football but that he would rather sacrifice playing regularly for sitting on the bench at Man U...(not that it worked this year)

No way. Owen has openly stated numerous times how he prefers to not play whilst being at big club rather than playing regularly for a smaller club. Not the sort of attitude we want around our squad. Such a waste of a talent.

I''ll be there, looking forward to it!

Assuming Gunter is one of Lambert''s targets, I wouldn''t presume we have missed out on him just yet. I remember Peterborough saying that R.Bennett was on his sway to Swansea, but as soon as Norwich showed interest there was only one winner. I presume it depends on how much of a key signing Gunter is to Lambert (if at all) and how much we are prepared to stretch our budget on him, leaving less money available for other areas. If we want him, I dont expect him to go without a fight but we also know we don''t pay over the odds for players.

Ruddy''s save in the dying minutes at Anfield

I believe Ray Clemence was watching him today, so if he was interested enough to come and watch him on the last day of the season then I''d like to think he is due a call up, as today''s performance must have reconfirmed the reasoning for all his plaudits this season.

[quote user="Mahogany"]It''s kind of like dating someone you know could do far better. You feel super ambivalent; half of you is just happy that they are with you and wants to enjoy the ride while it lasts, while the other half wants them to get it over with, crush your hopes and dreams and leave you for someone who isn''t such a loser because, at some point, you know they are going to... maybe that''s just me...[/quote] Don''t worry, you''re not the first one to use that analogy [:)]

This is just something we have to accept about Lambert, he doesn''t give much away. You only have to look at the Burnley saga and how it got out of control because of what Lambert never said. The exception to this was during the promotion celebrations in the city where he said he would sign a 20 year contract with us if he was offered one; I think he may have been a bit tipsy at the time, McNally should supply with him some celebratory drinks this evening and get him to sign that contract! [;)]

Is it wrong that this has crossed my mind - If Lambert was to leave, I hope he signs Snodgrass first. [:P]

Someone just tweeted that outside the ground someone shouted to Zak asking him if he was going to sign a new contract with us, he responded with "Im waiting for them first". So if we are to believe that was an honest response, the club haven''t offered him a new contract yet.

Personally I agree with that top 3, but I think Holt will win it with Ruddy as runner up.

The Euros, a little bit of the Olympics (but not much), weddings to attend, a couple of birthday parties, BBQs and trips to the coast for me.

[quote user="morty"][quote user="alysha"]I wasn''t worried at all when I first read it, thought he must have just fancied a change to fresh things up a bit. Now I''m starting to doubt that belief...[:S][/quote] Don''t get sucked into the negativity. [/quote] Small blip, you''ll be pleased to know I''m now back on track and optimistic about the summer ahead [:)]

A lot of good points made, I myself am unsure how Lambert would view an approach from Villa. If his head was to be turned, then presumably a lot depends on the next couple of games - if Lambert was to resign and be in charge of Villa on the last day of the season as some are suggesting, surely this would only be the case if they pulled themselves out the relegation scrap - can you imagine if we sent Villa down on the last day of the season, effectively making Lambert a Championship manager in the process? Hopefully we can relegate them with Lambert sitting in our dugout!

I''ve seen a few people on Twitter not exactly saying they wanted Blackburn to win, but that they didn''t care that we lost as we are practically safe. I couldn''t disagree more. Every match Norwich play, I want them to win; I except we won''t always win, but every single result and performance I care about. It doesn''t matter that this puts extra pressure on QPR, I''m a Norwich supporter before a QPR hater. It''s also worth remembering that every place you finish higher up the league, the more money it''s worth, this shouldn''t be sniffed at. Luckily for us and credit to our club, we don''t perform badly often. Bring on Liverpool!

I like it too, quite similar to this year''s kit but with a green collar. Agree with the above poster though, the shorts look rather long!

Snodgrass spoke out last night about Leeds'' lack of ambition, and how they couldn''t have ever been serious about promotion if they were so willing to sell their captain - Howson. A lot of Leeds fans are interpreting this as his moment to put his side across before he inevitably leaves this summer. Just hoping Lambert''s interest in him is still as strong as it was last summer. He would be a great addition to the squadm, in my opinion.

My boyfriend''s dad supports 1p5wich. The first time I met him he was listening to the radio commentary to one of their games. I asked him why he was listening to that rubbish, he just sort of blanked me...don''t think I made a very good first impression. [:$] I''m pleased to say that now three and a half years later, he has resigned to the fact that we are the pride of East Anglia, however much he hates the fact. So I wouldn''t worry over your lost friendship just yet, he may still come to his senses.

Yes [:)]
