  1. Just win 4 of the last 6 and nobody can catch us. Amazing to see we are already on the same number of goals as the impressive Wolves for the full season and only 2 pts from where they were at this stage.
  2. Just checked and the 2 match suspension after 10 yellows has passed - 37 games is the cut off. We have two players on 9 yellows, Zimmerman and Aarons so just missed these two key players missing important matches. Phew!
  3. With Bristol City successfully dealt with and behind us our run in of 6 Home matches to the end of the season looks promising. Swansea, Hull, QPR, Reading, Sheff Wed and Blackburn. Can we really now start to dream?
  4. They celebrated a famous win yesterday - with just 3 shots that's 1 every half hour, and scored from the 1 shot on target.
  5. Just seen the Liverpool keeper drop a real clanger to hand MU an equaliser. All keepers, however good, will make a mistake especially with these modern very light footballs. I'm very happy with Krul. He had a young back 4 yesterday and Tettey not playing to his best so his experience was essential.
  6. Just checked and states that there is not a match pass available for todays game.
  7. So let''s put things into context. Watling was indeed a great Club man, loved Norwich City, and we all loved him, but wealthy as he was, measured in small millions, not enough to buy success. Sir Arthur, another from the left by the way, also dedicated City man, but again not super wealthy and like Chase the main means to finance the Club was via debt at the bank. When the bank said enough, we became a selling club, well before Delia took over and rescued us from almost certain administration. We now have a system in place which might succeed, might not but as a long time City fan since 1959 I am 100% behind the Club in giving it a go. OTBC.
  8. What he omits is that the last 20 years has seen a complete sea-change in football - the playing field was level in those heady days pre 2000, but not any more. Football is now dominated by half a dozen clubs, perhaps less. To be frank Norwich City have performed above expectations and resources. The present model is showing real signs of progress - three academy youngsters now first teamers. Last three results and performances worthy of praise, but of course that''s not a term in his vocabulary.
  9. I just watched the extended highlights (the 10 minute one) on iFollow and it really emphasises the difference between the two clubs styles. Hurst''s Ipswich is identical in style to McCarthys but with L1 players as the core. More long ball, long throws and set plays, nothing creative at all. Our young defence in the 2nd half coped pretty well with all the high balls and this gives me confidence for the future. Agree that much of the game was pretty low in quality but what quality there was came from our play.
  10. Lots of grumbles but not from this old timer. Heartened to see a back line with such young players (2nd half), all homegrown to boot. They faced a bombardment of long balls, long throws, and for me did really well. We can build on this I believe.
  11. Walters has only played 5 matches in the last two seasons, so not exactly going to be match fit is he?
  12. There''s a drop down menu on the video page which I found you can access by clicking on "Show More" - select full match replay and all matches are there home and away. All matches also have highlights and extended highlights. I''ve booked the Ipswich match for live screening. It provides good coverage.
  13. Just a thought - the best way to get a realistic and meaningful takeover bid is by strongly suggesting no interest from the owners. A tactic which would hopefully avoid getting a wrong''un wanting to invest for quick profit/money laundering or similar. For this reason I am not convinced that the succession plan is set in stone.
  14. Latest news that Andre Green of Villa more likely and is a homegrown player, only 20 yrs old. Makes more sense.
  15. Do what I do - ignore his trash for what it is. Sadly he resurrects his own posts often. Such a sad sad man.
  16. Sounds like a good half finished off with an excellent team goal. Encouraging so far from a team with several fringe players in the line up.
  17. Sadly this forum has been turned into a complete farce and is dominated by moronic posts.
  18. He had a mate called Callaghan. Does he still play?
  19. What you mean a pipe smoking winger who ….. "said it at the Brighton Conference"
  20. RE: "Who on earth are you going to be able to attract here with the owners as confirmed losers"? Did you mean "you", shouldn''t it be "we"?
  21. Do what most of already do - ignore him. Who needs a button.
  22. Deloittes latest piece on Championship Club''s Accounts advocates Clubs must move towards operating independently of the financial backing of their owners. Chasing the dream is simply not working - Newcastle, Brighton and Huddersfield accumulated Financial Losses of £106M to get there. Fine if you make it, but doomsday scenario if not! Maybe we''re ahead of the game with our structure after all.
  23. We''re going to see a lot more of these filthy rich, couldn''t care less about the Club, types leaving a lot of Clubs in real trouble. Cards on the table, I for one am happy with the direction our Board have take. It''s long term and sustainable.
