Taking us back to league one once again. That is some achievement. Still at least we''re a fantastic, family orientated, community club. God bless our ''saviours''!!

Oh the old "buy them out" argument.

How about the owners admit they are no longer fit for purpose and put the club up for sale or actually search for/accept some investment from someone who wasn''t born in and doesn''t live in Norfolk?

To risk the business by putting it in the hands of an unproven Director of Football. was an appalling decision.

Webber should have proved his philosophy in Leaue Two, not been given a Championship club to play with. The man is out of his depth, and Farke probably the only Coach who was willing to work with him.

For the first time I think the Board should consider their positions. We can’t afford to offload, Webber, Farke and the dross they have brought in - but this is a disaster of a set up.

No doubt Webber will call for patience, whilst we pay to watch boring rubbish and he trousers a hefty salary for as long as he can blag the philosophy rubbish.

I think three points at home against lower, and mid table teams keeps you safe - not scraping one.

Surely it is Webber''s fault? He decided which players to get rid of in the summer, he appointed Farke, he approved the signings

Spot on. The guys a charlatan

Our board are to modern football what Juliet bravo is to modern television. They are well beyond their usefulness and sell by date and are now holding the club back. Attempting to go it alone under a localised model of management in an era of global football is naive and we are seeing the fruit.

So many wasted opportunities- they got lucky with lamber and have since taken us back to flirting with relegation to L1 having squandered millions on average past it players.

They need to go. That some people cannot accept that is crazy. Next year we lose even more money and the few decent players we currently have go too. Then what?

Not even sure there are three worse teams than us this year!!

Board please sell the club and say goodbye. The early 90s called and want you back.

I know, but this is their criteria for outside investment. They refuse to look beyond the Norfolk borders.

In the modern world of football, our board is more suited to a club like kings Lynn. The idea that they are going to hand this down to their nephew shows just how out of touch they are with the game.

Spot on, DCB. They seem to think they are doing this noble practice of keeping it all local etc, whereas the reality is we are being left behind, way, way behind. There are probably clubs in Leagues One and Two who have more forward thinking boards and owners than we do, because apparently no one can invest in Norwich City FC unless they know all of the words to On The Ball City and live within the Norfolk borders.

or maybe how much in touch, in factI''m sure our impoverished neighbours would have welcomed the Cobbolds handing their shares over to a family member rather than what they have (bugger all) now ie no going backI appreciate the club will always have those looking for any opportunity to find faultbut I am sure that master Tom with City supporting board members is a far healthier and safer option than the likes of Marcus Evans
