grefstad 0 Posted December 6, 2015 Yes, realism is such a bad thing. Much better to bask in the glorious thing called ignorance, eh?Putting the head in the sand is much better. Maybe the bad stuff will go away?Must be the curse of the twenty-somethings inhabiting this board. Surely children of the curling-generation... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hairy Kenneth 0 Posted December 6, 2015 My interpretation of "you will see us at the bottom of all physical stats in the Premier" is just that. I didn''t see us at the bottom of all the physical stats in the data you supplied. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If we are bottom or not of all stats is just clutching at straws. The point is that we are shite in most stats, and it must improve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chip20 69 Posted December 9, 2015 Grefstad (et al.). Supposing you ''win'' and convince every poster on this forum that you are the correct and enlightened one; what then? What is it you propose we do about it? Even once you have converted the Pink ''Un posters to your cause, you still have the rest of the Carrow Road regulars and casuals to ''enlighten''. Even then, what do you do? Boo and hiss at those nasty business people failing to keep our team at the Top Table? Write some nasty letters to show them the errors of their ways? Do you genuinely feel it is in our power to turn things around, to make them buy expensive players and pay comparable wages, to give youth a chance at exactly the right time? Do you propose we should dictate to the owners how they spend their money and perhaps we should also decree which players get picked each week and whether the focus should be on attack or defence [this time]?I guess what I am asking, in a nutshell, is what are you out to achieve? It seems to me that you are merely seeking the affirmation of a bunch of people you don''t even know. After all, what else positive can come out of your cause?

Green and Yellow 0 Posted December 9, 2015 City have been successful in balancing the books and clearing the debt. It just seems to me that the board cannot or are incapable of pushing to the next level. Until there is a change in the boards mentality then city will bounce between the championship and premiership. And unfortunately I see that happening again. Managers come and they go but the boards mindset remains. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Interesting philosophy to have. So, if we''re playing ''my dad is bigger than your dad'', as I have been registered here 5 years longer, does that mean I have supported my club longer? Or is there some other way I am your superior? You know, in the same way as value of opinion being directly related to how many posts you have spouting your nonsense?

grefstad 0 Posted December 11, 2015 End of discussion, Dutch.Go back to your behind-the-keyboard chuckling, and stop bouncing old threads.As for the original post in this thread, I fear I am right about my assumptions, but we will see at 14:45 tomorrow. I am waiting with interest to see all the excuses made by the clappers. Those of us who saw this coming will ofcourse be nodding our heads in silent approval of the foresight, although as fans we will ofcourse not be happy. The deluded will still be deluded, and soon the excuses will be made.Watch this space. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There''s nowhere I''d rather be so what would be the point of being miserable.[/quote]Well, so will I. Not in Norwich though, a pub in London will do. But with the shirt, scarf, and all.Even the odds look good on a home win (2.90 @bet365).We normally get something out of the games vs Everton, so I am not overly pessimistic, but fear a draw, as it will not be good use for anyone. We need wins. An ugly 2-1 will so, but I fear a 1-3 type of game, quite similar to the Crystal Palace game. Hope it will not be too open, as Everton thrive on open games.

Yorkshire Canary 118 Posted December 12, 2015 Well getting ready to go to the game in hope more than optimism today. Still think we may just scrape home at the end of the season but bottom 3 before the Villa game is probable more than possible Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
