The Great Drinkell 51 Posted January 27, 2016 Isn''t football about excitement and the highs and lows ( well supporting a team like Norwich) Mid table obscurity may give a chance of a cup run I suppose but as we are out of these for this season isn''t it better to have the excitement of avoiding relegation? or would you really prefer to be sitting 12th with little chance of Europe and no excitement left at this time of the season?

Bethnal Yellow and Green 2,424 Posted January 27, 2016 Mid table ''obscurity'' in the Prem means you are one of the 30 richest clubs in the world. Wouldn''t mind that to be honest.Mid table ''obscurity'' means being able to sign players like Cabaye, Shaqiri, Andre Ayew - sounds pretty good to me.

Guest Posted January 27, 2016 If we were mid table that would mean we would have witnessed many more wins and better performances. Watching footballers crumble under the pressure of being relegated isn''t exciting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Jenkins 0 Posted January 27, 2016 I love the ride, it seems to have become the Norwich way. Loved last season, am enjoying this one, moan and groan all you like but its always interesting being a City fan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bethnal Yellow and Green 2,424 Posted January 27, 2016 Who in the Prem isn''t having an exciting/interesting season?The only team I can think of is West Brom and that is largely due to having Pulis in charge. Everyone else has something exciting going on, whether it is big name signings, cup adventures, record points total in sight or unlikely scrap for European qualification.The real boring life comes for the teams in 12th in the Championship - basically Norwich from 1996 - 2001 - that is something I would never want to return to. ''Yay, we''ve signed Jason f**king Jarret!'' Nah, give me ''obscurity'' in the Prem (not that any Prem team is obscure) over that any day of the week.

Mr Jenkins 0 Posted January 27, 2016 This season is interesting for most sides but that often isn''t the case, I imagine that''s what the OP refers to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
93vintage 16 Posted January 27, 2016 I''m enjoying it while I still can, as I''m not sure how much longer we can continue bobbing in and out of the Premier League. A long spell in the Championship could be just around the corner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
havemyhowsonit 0 Posted January 27, 2016 Prefer it if we were doing a ''norwich'' 92-93 season or a Blackburn 94-95 season or a Leicester this season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Great Drinkell 51 Posted January 27, 2016 Couldn''t agree more Alartz but all these teams had lots of money behind them.. yes even Leicester this season. as for who''s having a boring season this season look no further than old Trafford and they are moaning like hell.Would be nice to blood some young local blood though. maybe we could afford to do this if we gained MTO - Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its a scary thought dropping out of the prem after working so hard to get there. A decade of championship football could always be round the corner, and from experience we know thats very dull and an awful prospect. Mid table prem is our aim. A decade in prem would be an unprecedented success. Mid table would bring some famous wins along with the losses. Bettrr than scrapping at the foot of the table. We would also attract the next level of player. Would be bloomin great Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
