  1. I''m sure I saw you boo''ing Susie!!    Bring on the naked Boo''ers Sorry is that over stepping the line?  I hope not  
  2. I really hope not, I badly want to see him play in the Prem, more so than Helveg or Safri.   Can we not do something to get him a start?   I know if we all chant Mulryne, Mulryne, Mulryne at the top of our voices at 10:00PM tonight, Worthy is bound to hear right? 
  3. [quote]Without being insulting the fellow is either living in dream world or not that bright (being from thetford it could be the latter!) after reading some of his quotes!! I just hope he does not become ...[/quote] Hey I was brought up in Thetford  
  4. I hear ya   We can only hope that the next time both of them get their chance IN THEIR PROPER POSITION PLEASE MR WORTHINGTON, that they grasp it with both hands, feet and anything else that protrudes from them
  5. we could do a whole lot worse, doubt we could afford the wages though. 
  6. nice idea, but if "we have to sell", wouldn''t that drive the price down.  All the teams interested would know we are desperate to sell and this would drive price down.  Of course the more teams interested the better, so it could counter it, just a thought
  7. I''ve got two tickets for the Chelsea game.............in there end though, behind the goal...........wich me luck!! I am taking the fiance and she has a habit of screaming very loud when Norwich do something good........gulp.....
  8. quality, some of those are funny and cheered me up. I had a good one as a signature on my sunday league team website - "If you''re not sure what to do with the ball, just pop it in the back of the net and we will discuss your options afterwards", Think it was Shankly that said that one. Perhaps Worthy could try that on Holt, lol, muhahaha.
  9. bog off newbie Only joking, welcome. Piece of advise from a still fairly new poster:  1st Wiz can be sarcastic and moody and he will turn you into a frog if you cross him.  The rest are pretty much okay. Don''t take offence if people ignore you or completely disregard your opinions.  Most people think I am mad because I think Helveg was our best signing, but I am sticking to my guns.
  10. The question should be - Who will buy Greeno?   I''m not being funny, but has he done enough in the Prem so far for anyone to seriously think about changing whoever they already have in the number 1 jersey.  OKay some might want him as backup, but then would Greeno prefer being number in the Championship or number 2 in the prem? I think there is a good chance he will go, but I don''t know who to, so perhaps we might have him longer than we first thought, heres hoping.
  11. until about 3 weeks ago I only had 40 off posts under my name and still considered myself a newbie, in fact compared to a lot of people round here I still am.  The thing is I carried on posting whether I was ignored or insulted and now veterans like DDiM are mentioning me as a character on the boards   Thanks DDiM. Like others have said people relate to people they feel more comfortable with and it takes time to make friends, in the cyber chat sense of the word. I have gone mental on the boards the last 3 weeks and visit almost every hour.  That''s not because I want to get my posts up, its because I have been genuinely passionate and interested with a lot of the conversations, plus the fact I love NCFC and still feel we are going to have a good season, if only Nigel would listen to my team selection lol
  12. GA47, thanks mate really appreciate it.   Sorry about the phone loop thingy,
  13. Thanks Nav, I guess me ma told your ma.  I want to come to Norwich and have some kind of get together or something, would you be interested?  Got any ideas?
  14. I agree Wiz.  I am guilty of rising to the bait sometimes, but I don''t think I have ever been rude.  I saw that post you are referring to and I replied complaining at the person in question. As far as you and Yankee go, its better than reading a book sometimes
  15. More importantly than any of that for me right now is that I asked my girlfriend to marry me on Sunday and she said..........................YES 
  16. I posted this somewhere esle too, but here goes again for what it''s worth this is what I would like to see: Its time Worthy played the best players for the positions and in my opinion it is this. GK - Green obviously, player of the season so far. LB- Our best defender by far has been Simon Charlton and his best postion is left back, play him there hes too short for CB. CB - Flemming hasn''t been awful, he has tried to deal with a LB that can''t stop crosses (Drury), a right back that can''t man mark (Eddie) and a CB that is really a LB.  Give him a proper partner and he will continue to be solid. CB - Shacks, now I haven''t seen him play so I am trusting in fellow posters opinions here.  We need height and pace and he has both right?  He has also featured twice and not done anything wrong, but been completely dropped?!?! RB - Helveg, proven top level ability.  Has only played RB twice.  Once was first game of the season where everybody was understandably nervous with high expectations and Helveg had just got back from international duty.  Second game against Ryan Giggs, come on he is the best left winger in the Prem (IMO) and Helveg wasn''t that bad.  Give this guy a run of games with the others I have mentioned and watch our defense build in confidence and more importantly organisation. LW - Bently, one of those players that you know can turn it on any time.  Not afraid to take people on, wants the ball badly and can shoot from anywhere normally creating his own space. CM - Francis - this guy works from box to box and is definitely getting better with each game.  His shooting and first touch have improved with each game and with the right partners this guy will start to fly. CM - This is the tough one, but I think Safri has to be given a proper run with a proper 4-4-2 set up.  He is hungry for the ball and can pass it, hold it up and defends well too.  I would like to see Mullers too, but fear his work rate would let us down. RW - Jonsson, gets better with every game and with Helveg as a partner I guarantee their will be something special come out of our right wing. ST - Svensson, his vision and neat little passes and his now improved work rate will bring us goals, whether he is setting up Francis, Hux or Jonsson or scoring himself. ST - Hux.  Now I have been saying left wing, but he is getting man marked too easily.  Man Citeh did a 2 man job on him and Blackburn seemed to keep him quiet too.  Give him a free role to roam and play off Sven and good things will come.  Teams will mark him closely and he will draw players sometimes two as he has in the past which will allow runs from Francis, Bentley and Jonsson. Summary - all these players will be playing in positions they are comfortable in, not make shift roles just to accomodate them or other players.  I also see some good partnerships with a nice balance of vision, work rate, passing, speed and natural ability in the attacking half and tacklers, organisers, speed and some height at the back. You then have a whole string of players to come on as subs or replace players that under perform and most importantly all in comfortable postiions: GK - Ward for Green LB - Drury for Charlton CB - Doc for Shacks CB - Charlton for Flem RB - Eddie for Helveg LW - Brennan for Bentley CM - Holt for Francis CM - Mullers for Safri ST - McKenzie for Svensson ST - McVeigh for Huckerby all these subs could be tried and tested over time until the best players out of each pair for those positions are found.  It also allows for injury and suspension.   Instead of changing formations and player positions around every week to accomodate different ideas.   Settle on the most simple formation 4-4-2, choose your best 2 options for each position and
  17. if we all agreed it would be a pretty boring message board and life would also be pretty boring, although somewhat calmer I think..............
  18. Still no one answered zippers question about Eddie. Its time Worthy played the best players for the positions and in my opinion it is this. GK - Green obviously, player of the season so far. LB- Our best defender by far has been Simon Charlton and his best postion is left back, play him there hes too short for CB. CB - Flemming hasn''t been awful, he has tried to deal with a LB that can''t stop crosses (Drury), a right back that can''t man mark (Eddie) and a CB that is really a LB.  Give him a proper partner and he will continue to be solid.

  19. I agree, I can''t see anybody in our team that can play right wing better than Jonsson who does get better with each game. Still think Eddy should be dropped for Helveg until he learns to mark up again.
  20. welcome to the board Rob Aren''t you the guy that was sarcastic about one of my posts without detailing any points of your own, sorry if I''m wrong. BTW ignore Wiz, he is either being extremely sarcastic or is having one of his bad days.  Not a good idea to call regular posters "other no lifes" with your 4th post, bet you''re real good at making firends, lol.
  21. well said Flick Fleck. If WBA have spent 5 times the cash we have and are only 1 point above us, I know which club I would rather have shares in.
  22. great post, totally agree, especially with the defenders.  I have said in numerous posts that are defenders individually are good, but lack someone that organises them and their marking is woeful at times.  Combined with Holt standing on their toes, nightmare.
  23. I agree totally.  Eddy although I too have great admiration for him, his marking has been poor.  Where was he when Kilbane scored, where was he when Dickov scored?  Both players were attacking the left channel where he should have been marking. Helveg hasn''t been given a proper run at right back. Mullers hasn''t been given a chance at all Bentley has had more shots outside the box than anyone on the team and is very exciting when he gets the ball, not given a chance for 2 matches now though. Safri has only had a couple of chances. I would have Helveg in over Eddy and any of the other 3 over Holt, but if they have a poor game don''t just rip them straight back out, they need at least 4 games.  Okay if they were dog poo different story, but I don''t think Safri, Helveg or Bentley have ever been any worse than the rest and Mullers hasn''t even had a chance.
  24. don''t recall Brennan getting roasted against Man City.  Okay Flood got past him a few times (but the guy is bloomin quick) At least he stopped more crosses than actually came in, unlike Drury yesterday.  Mind you I did say after the Man City game that the only change I would make was Bren for Drury, but wish he hadn''t now.
