    [quote user="Wings of a Sparrow"]Yes, it was Peter Simpson.[/quote]

    When our family moved to Southtown (Yarmouth) in 1962, Mike Bailey (Charlton & Wolves) lived next door to us, and Dave Stringer (Norwich) and Peter Simpson (Arsenal) lived just up the road.

    When we moved to Caister, i was mates with Dale Gordons dad, Ray Gordon, they lived in the next road.

    Yeah, i''ve been lmao at their tweets for about a week now, hilarious. It wouldn''t surprise me if was the same guy or guys that also tweet as Big Granty Holt & Mad MarcTierney. Unfortunately some people take them as the real thing, although seeing fans of 1pSwich, Swansea, Leeds, etc thinking they are having a go at Holty, when it''s only a parody account is funny too.

    Honestly, some of the posts on here are ridiculous at the best of times, but when it gets to transfer window time this message board goes crazy every time!

    We have a certain transfer budget, and we have an excellent scouting network that are working throughout the year, to identify who we should be looking to sign, within our budget, but still we get people believing that we are going to sign so and so from wherever, according to the media, or we should sign so and so because he scores shedloads on Football Manager.

    Get real, guys and girls, i love football manager games and fantasy football leagues as much, if not more, than the next guy, but please, let the professionals at the club do what they''re paid to do, they haven''t failed us yet. Back their judgement, and i''m sure we''ll be fine.

    We are improving leaps and bounds each season, and long may it continue.

    OTBC!!!

    How dare you 2 come on here posting positive stuff when you haven''t even got 10,000 posts to your names!

    Only joking, Happy New year to you both, but no doubt you''ll soon see the usual suspects hi jacking the thread to carry out their attention seeking doom mongering and forum fighting with each other, when most of us only have the best interests of Norwich City Football Club at heart.

    I myself, sadly can''t get to games now, because of illness, much as i''d love to. I''ve supported City since 1962, what''s that, 50 years? I''ve supported the club through highs and lows in that time, but have always supported the club. Players and managers come and go, but true supporters stay with City through thick and thin.

    Some clowns on here think if you can''t get to every game you''re not a proper supporter, but there are so many fans of our great club that through illness, financial reasons, or living too far away just can''t get to games, not even mentioning the fact there is a 1,700+ waiting list for season tickets which puts even more potential people off applying for a season ticket, or that casual fans think they can''t see the games that they want to see, because they are probably "full house, sold out"

    I saw, a few years ago, that there were probably 350,000 to 400,000 people in the world that support City to varying degrees, and it''s probably fair to say after the events of the last 3 or 4 years, and increased worldwide coverage, those figures might well be more like 500,000 fans of varying degrees these days, we''re massive!

    I''m not one for jumping on the players or managers backs after we lose a few games, it hurts them even more than us fans, it''s their future that suffers if they don''t perform well, so get behind them all.

    As for transfer speculation, i know it''s the nature of the football fan to dream up all sorts players we should be trying to buy, or believing all the gossip that''s in the media, but it''s only the people at the club, for example, our extensive scouting network, our excellent manager, and brilliant chief executive and directors that can realistically sign new players, not gossip columns.

    Best wishes to all true City fans, whether you can get to games or not. Hopefully, this time next season we will be at least as successful as we have been in the last 2 seasons, and maybe a little bit higher.

    C''mon!!!!!!!!! 3points!!!!!!!!!!!

    [quote user="Irn Bru Canary"]As for Norwich, their upward mobility becomes increasingly difficult to fathom. Their starting XI is ostensibly no better than Championship standard, with the possible exceptions of Bassong and Javier Garrido, formerly of Roma and yet they continue to defy all doubters. On Sunday they stood level on points with Liverpool. A bit harsh I thought.[/quote]

    Apart from the fact that he never played for Roma, but Lazio, probably written by a bitter Binner or bitter Leeds fan, who has littele hope of watching their favourite team in the Prem in the near future!
