morty 0 Posted January 18, 2016 Do we think they deliberately released news of this at the same time as Klose signing, so it would get buried under it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JF 694 Posted January 18, 2016 Has an announcement ever been more underwhelming. All this talk of no one wants to buy the club has just been shown to be utter nonsense. This was the plan all along. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We were in the Championship for the 2010-11 season, not League One.I''m amazed someone who attended every game would get that wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rudolph Hucker 0 Posted January 18, 2016 35 and a former civil servant wtf is all that about?What does he do now? What skills does he bring? What was his job in the ''civil service?''As nice a woman as Delia is doesn''t all this just sum up Norwich City? If Delia likes you, you are in. Infact, if she likes you then you can overstay or get promoted to your level of incompetence.A person''s best quality is often their biggest fault and we are NepotismFC, Cronyism Utd, Whoyouknow City.
