[quote user="Jonzey"]Rules are there for a reason.Those that blatantly break the rules should be punished, otherwise what''s the point in rules? Plus I really want to see Neil Warnocks face when he''s moaning on TV about it!![/quote]Exactly!

Can we have some news on the testimonial now?

I have been saying that QPR need a points deduction for what they have done. Not for personal gains but for the sake of breaking the rules. QPR fans have been coming on here saying we only want it for us to be guaranteed automatic promotion, well that was all a load of old tosh. If a 100 meter sprinter failed a drugs test should they be stripped of their gold? Of course they should.Colin is going to get everything he deserves, keep the title, I am not saying it because I want Norwich to go up as Champions, we are up anyway, but hit them hard, hit them fair and show the world the FA isn''t a push over and no amount of money, moaning or media spin will change the facts. IF YOU CHEAT, YOU WILL GET PUNISHED!

Shepards Crook in Pompey has Sky and is full of #NCFC fans!

I am at the good companion, there is no Sky. On the advice of the manager the pubs near the ground aren''t away friendly. Nearest is 30 minutes walk.... Sigh

The good companion doesn''t have sky anymore. Good friendly staff though who told us of another pub (30 minute walk though) but no "away friendly" bear the ground.

I am not trying to speculate about the promotion chances of Norwich City, nor the play off routes that may or may not end up with us being a top tier club by the end of the season, moreover here I will be commenting on the Premier League, the step up and what I make of it, whoever that club may be.For many years now even the Premier League has been under scrutiny due to the fact that many are under the impression that it is segregated (a lot like the FL) between the have'' and have not teams. Those in the top half have the money to spend on international level players that command huge wages. They are backed by European competition bonuses and bank rolling from wealthy investments. The resulting outcome of this creating a two tier (or even three tier) system in the Premier League itself. This disparity is reflected once again between the Premier League and The Championship. Again I will reiterate that this is the perceived view.There is no doubt that the higher you get up the leagues the higher quality player you will be able to attract and no doubt that the television rights that Sky pays each club as well as the many other reasons , a club will be more financially stable in this league. I am a firm believer however, that the gap between the leagues isn''t the gulf that many would like to. Also, that survival might not come at a huge cost that many expect.  I would also like to point out I am talking about survival, not winning the league.If you look at the difference between a majority of the bottom half (of the Premiership) clubs and teams at the top (of the Championship), especially QPR (although I am firmly of the belief their aging squad, comprised of "bread and butter players" and the gleaming quality of Taraabt guiding them through, will struggle at the PL level) Cardiff and Norwich and the lower premier teams such as Wolves, Blackpool and West Ham there isn''t a huge gulf. Granted these teams are struggling for survival but quality wise I don''t think there really is a huge difference. Also, barring Blackpool possibly the main issue is scoring goals for these teams.You only have to look at the performance by West Ham today (1.5.2011) against Manchester City to prove that with the right tactics  you can take on many teams within the league. The level quality all over the pitch compared to West Ham has a slight increase, but not a massive gulf. They are still in with a shout, away from home at 2 - 1 to walk away with something.Also there is the fact that the higher tier of the Premier League usually have more cup ties to play in, be it domestic or European. Coming back to old cliche, if a team concentrates on the league they will have more of a chance. That of course goes against the winning mentality that should be bread into every football player, but would make a difference.Lastly, I would like to talk about the "Big Money" players. It is of my honest belief that whilst yes, these players are usually of a higher class, comparatively they are not worth the extra millions banded on them. Ronaldo was a £90m signing whereas Van Der Vaart was £9.5m, where is the logic in that. I am not disputing Ronaldo is better than Van Der Varrt, but how much better he is does not equate £80.5m. Of course in the Premier League you will need players who really do have that edge but as many have shown you can find that in lower leagues at cut down prices. Chris Smalling for example. Whilst I do believe that the tempo, overall quality and expectation of the Premier League is much much higher, I do not believe that the gulf between leagues is that massive. I am confident that if Cardiff and Norwich were to make it to the Premier League they would survive and do well. Establishing themselves and feeling the league out before trying to push into the higher echelons of the Premier League itself.

Can anyone link to the article for this please?

The Ipswich crazy guy has been done a death with, I get it he is obviously now 100% there and I think it is unfair to have a go at someone with a disability. He does something which brings him joy and we shouldn''t constantly mock him. We got our laughs with Narrwich Cuiirty ur gooooin to heaallll! But enough is enough, if you want to constantly mock him, subscribe to his videos. I don''t need constant updates of what he is doing when!

Old Guardian article about old Colin, wonder if they will take his view into account.Warnock said of the settlement: "It justifies what we''ve said all along. We''ve had a lot of people criticise us for taking it this far – but that''s what justice is all about. But this still doesn''t make it right for me or the United fans – or anyone else involved." Warnock reiterated his view that the Premier League''s chief executive, Richard Scudamore, should have resigned over the affair and believes a bigger club than Sheffield United would have been treated differently. "I''d love to get him [Scudamore] in a room on my own for an hour, no holds barred," he said. "If it was any other club, Scudamore would have made sure the facts came out. I find it amazing that he has kept his job. If it had been a big club, the truth would have come out earlier and it would have been sorted."

I understand innocent until proven guilty but the media are not even mentioning the points debacle today, just QPR are up. Strange!

[quote user="Tim Allman"]I’ve read that ALL the evidence must be present at the hearing so if QPR are punished and after the verdict they say, “Hey look we’ve just found this”, it’s inadmissible. The appeal time is very short four days and two to hear the appeal so it will be resolved one way or another very quickly.   And I understand that the the only grounds for appeal is how harsh the punishment is and nothing else.   This twitter account is also interesting, but I''ve no idea if it is genuine or not!!   http://twitter.com/#!/Smudge1962     [/quote]From his Twitter account,"The FA are told it''s around £600,000 and then QPR suddenly claim it could be £3.5m. Know wonder the FA came calling"I doubt any fledgling journo would misspell no and know! Idiot! Two completely different words and meanings, know wonder doesn''t even exist I don''t think. It even had me doubting it, but here an actual use by a real journalist.[url]http://www.independent.co.uk/opinion/commentators/vince-cable-no-wonder-the-tories-are-so-scared-of-av-2277232.html[/url]

Has anyone else had problems getting on the NCFC site? I can''t seem to get on there. Need some Canary Player fix and may have to get it through another site.

Surely our ST counts as away stubs too then?

[quote user="jas the barclay king"]i will be watching it at Home! but if i was heading out would have gone to the Coach and Horses on Thorpe Road... [/quote]Ahh, plugging once again are we Jas?

I''d like to jump on the away ticket stubs bandwagon, my Missus doesn''t want an away season ticket as she can''t do all the travelling all the time, but has quite a few. Looking for the last few to bulk her up to 10! If anyone wants to sell any, let me know!

I thought we would know something by now......

I take it he didn''t win LOL!

O thought this was a tip, not a HUCKS referrance, damn £10 WIN!OOOOPS

Agreed, why not make a beamback ticket trade/sale thread rather than 30 "Need 1/2 a ticket for the BB tonight,"I have been on the hunt for tickets on here before, so I know what people are feeling, but 30 threads pushing good news to the bottom is silly!

Just don''t hold it up and see how many Norwich fans there are, we can see just how well they did with selling their tickets.

[quote user="morty"][quote user="NRGUK"]I have 10 stubs and the ability to go to all other away games.

[quote user="paulo79"]I don''t need to result in calling people names to make a point. It was a genuine offer and it is called supply and demand. The supply is zero and the demand is apparently quite high. Simple laws of economics my dear fellow. So as you are "DESPERATE" the price was reflected in that. Think you should stick to playing on your N64 mate![/quote]Don''t read economics to me like I am an idiot, I graduated from UEA with a 2:1 in Politics and Economics. Now please, if you are not going to add anything remotely worthwhile to this forum, stop posting on it.
