    You're half right. It actually began with the unbudgeted for windfall from that League Cup tie at Arsenal and FA Cup ties against Chelsea in 2017/18. I think that money paid for the floodlights. But the boy Tom was involved in that too...

    Pales in insignificance next to the Galway Roast deal that he brokered. 🤦🏻‍♂️


  2. It’s hard not to like Manchester City. Their meteoric rise from the third tier to dominant force is quite remarkable. It also shows what can be done with a bit of vision and ambition. To not only catch United but usurp them as the “team to beat” must be so sweet for their fans, who, it should be added, all had season tickets in division 3 and haven’t just sprung out of the woodwork at the first hint of success.

    I mean this recent streak is the equivalent to half a season and has us on par with Leeds for points gained at the top of the table, and seems to also correlate with not having so many significant first team injuries.

    I know it's really hard on this here Pink Un forum for some reason, but all some people have to say is....

    I was wrong.

    No. Stick with it. Eventually he’ll get sacked and then you can claim to have been right all along. 
    I think it’s rule 4 paragraph 2 subsection 6 of the PinkUn guidebook. 🙂

    I have zero evidence here- so just a hunch; but I wonder if DW was cross at Idah’s loan and has refused to play SvH as a bit of a sulky point to be made in protest? 
     

    Why else hasn’t he featured when we are crying out for a striker sub??! 

    I suspect that rather than any sulking, SVH has been seen plenty and is deemed to be, well, a little bit sh1t. Hope I’m wrong and he scores a Wembley hat-trick or something but at this point I think there’s more chance of Sydney Youngblood making an impact for us than SVH.

    Indeed they are. I will ask again the question...........does anyone know whether we do anything similar when we get our 2k allocation at Portaloo Road? One would seriously hope not.

    Why would you think we do it? Which game did you suspect you were surrounded by Delia’s pals? Were they swapping recipes or something…😉


  6. It’s a tough ask all round, in fairness.

    Culverhouse and Bowen seem pretty much automatics to me. But at centre half if you go Watson and Bruce you leave out Newsome, Linighan, Bassong, Fleming etc

    Crook has to play but playing that kind of playmaker, who do you put him with? Damien Francis box to box, Gary Holt type? Are we looking at pacy wingers? Do you go Hucks or Eadie on the left? Where does Buendia fit in? And who the hell do you pick up top? Sutton, Drinkell, Fleck, Ashton, Roberts, Holt, Bellamy, Pukki…

    Then there’s Fox, Gordon, Redmond and Wes bloody Hoolahan…and so many more…

    Too hard. 😂

    I think dad was superior to son and maybe Chris Woods superior to both. Buendia has to make the starting eleven of any Norwich side. 

    Not sure about Bryan/Angus but with Emi you are spot on. Woods was a great keeper too, but I think for fans of “an era” Keelan would be the same as “Banks in goal” when people try to put together an all time England XI

    Whilst I'm nothing to do with ACN I applaud their efforts to create an atmosphere. 

    I started this thread to make people aware and have the opportunity to volunteer to assist their efforts. 

    A lot on here seem to have plenty of time on their hands! 

    Nice one, Greavsy. Cheers.
