I Love Fernando Derveld

Why not?

[quote user="YellowNets1901"]God I do hate these threads where people try to be the voice of reason, giving rallying cries to the fans etc. It''s so cringeworthy. I''d prefer false rumours, false sightings. ''Let''s all make sure we get behind the new man, whoever he is'' - oh shut the f uck up.[/quote]Yeah why be the voice of reason when you can start another ridiculous thread saying somebody isn''t up to a job they haven''t even started doing yet. Thanks you''ve reminded me why I stopped looking at/posting on this message board in the first place.

We all have different opinions on who the right man would/would not be, even amongst the group of lads i go to games with we differ massively. However, lets all keep an open mind and get behind whoever it may be - give them half a season at least before we all start moaning about style of play etc.

I''d love to see us try to get Chrissy Martin back here. Clearly found his feet at Championship level and has matured hugely as a player and a person in the 2 years since he left here, local boy, loves the club. Obviously depends on the manager but I for one would love to see it happen

I''ll be there

Mine always goes out on the last working day of the month - I thought everyone''s was the same?.You better blame Hughton Matt, I mean it''s his fault for everything else so why not your lack of understanding about your own finances?

[quote user="Daniel Brigham"]So why, as Norwich fans, does it feel like we''re the only ones without a johnny at a bunga bunga party? [/quote]This made me lol

When I was young, growing up in the countryside, my sister would often feed and play with the neighbours cats. Whilst I never knew their real names, we (my dad and me) named one Efan (after my favourite Norwich player of the time) and another Fat Bob (cause he was fat and evil, like a certain Mr.Chase!)

Newcastle (h) DRAW Cardiff (a) LOSS Man City (h) LOSS West Ham (a) LOSS Tottenham (h) LOSS Aston Villa (a) DRAW Stoke (h) WIN Southampton (a) LOSS Sunderland (h) WIN Swansea (a) LOSS West Brom (h) WIN Fulham (a) LOSS Current points - 23 Projected points - 34 Nervy last for games for us I reckon :/

[quote user="lake district canary"][quote user="lake district canary"][quote user="PurpleCanary"][quote user="I Love Fernando Derveld"]Another example why the FA/Premier League need to adopt the Bundesliga rule that fans must own at least 51% of any club (except in the case of Wolfsburg and Bayer Leverkusen, who have always been owned and run by Bayer and Volkswagen). It hasn''t stopped millionaire investors pumping money into unfashionable clubs (Hoffenheim) or Bayern/Dortmund becoming massive global ''brands''. But it does stop people ripping the heart and soul out of a football club, changing their indentity/colours, and making ridiculous decisions like this. The Cardiff fans who were happy to buy the red shirts/scarves because they believed it was ''progress'' for their club must be feeling very silly now. With the inevitable backlash that will follow this, it''s only a matter of time before Mr. Tan loses interes in his little plaything and Cardiff go the way of Leeds, Pompey and Blackburn. But at least they''ll come out of administration owned by local people and playing in blue again.Next time you hear anyone slagging off our board, remind them of hoe grateful they should be[/quote]There is a slightly less radical solution that some clubs might even agree to. To have a supporter-director with a golden-share veto over the kind of heritage issues you mention.[/quote] We have a supporter on the board. Her first name is Delia.[/quote] I know, I''ve missed the point - but does she have 51% shares or more? If so the point stands. [/quote]I get your point. Don''t forget MWJ though, after all he is the man who introduced football and NCFC to Delia in the first place!I think we should be thankful that we have local, committed owners, but would still like to see season ticket holders/members represnted on the board somehow

I have no idea on how the person would be selected though!

Becchio - (surely a championship club would pay around £500k for him)and that''s about it really. Unless we sign a new CB then maybe send Bennett out on loan to make sure he gets regular first team footy,Would like to see some of our promising youngsters (Morris, Gafaiti, Toffollo, McGeehan, the Murphy Twins, Jamar Loza) g=have short loan spells in league 1/2 to see if they can cut it in men''s football. We''ve already seen Josh brak into the first team, I don''t think it''ll be too long before we see his brother, McGeehan, Morris and Gafaiti too)

TottenhamVillaEvertonSouthamptonSwanseaSunderlandArsenal (lost, but very unlucky)Man City.So that''s 8 of our 19 away games we played well in by my reckoning.This season we can add Stoke and WBA to that list. Away performances this season have been a problem, but there''s no need to re-write history because you''ve decided ''that hootun is crap bor, we need good ole lambert back''
