I would rather see most investment in the team rather than the ground at this moment in time. Carrow Road is suitable for our needs ... At the moment.

not suitable for people whose needs include a casual ticket though.

I've read in these pages that out four academy graduates will be sold for a combined total of £100,000,000. I look forward to all of that being plowed into a championship team!!!!

There’s never been a better time to get it done. Everyone knows theres going to be a large pot of cash from selling players soon. Would be great to see an old school ground like Carrow road have its last piece and much needed cosmetic surgery done.

Look on the bright side. At least City1st seems to think you exist. He didn't accuse 'you' of being just another in the apparently ever-increasing line of Van Wink's aliases. Actually that is really quite the compliment.

Expansion should definitely be on the cards, and it is long overdue. It's not right that Norwich fans without season tickets can't get casual tickets.

100%. East Anglia (or mainly just Norfolk and Suffolk) is such a massive area with arguably only one relevant team atm (us). We should be hoovering up that potential support before they start 'supporting' teams like Man Utd and Liverpool. Got to capitalise on that.

I think the club actually looked into this, or at least got a third-party consultant to look into the financial and social benefits to creating a new stand. There’s this page that references the project and shows a simplistic design, that has a hanging cantilever structure to it. The irony that it looks like a sad mouth over the ground isn’t missed on a day like this...

You misunderstand (like many do) the owners. The long term plan is not to remain the same, taking no risks - it is to develop the club at a pace it can afford taking calculated risks. So the new extension to the main stand - and proof of their intention of doing that is the buying of land behind it - will happen at such time when the club has built enough assets by a combination of player sales and PL money if we can get back there.

But there is no point in doing it now. There are too many uncertainties at the moment, not enough money saved and the knowledge that the main spend still has to be getting players in that will ensure we do well on the pitch.

The plan is to ensure that Norwich becomes (if it isn't already) the go to club for top class young players who want to develop their career in the knowledge that they will get top class coaching and career development and better opportunities to get to first team match time than elsewhere. Doing that over four or five years with success on the pitch and selling on players as they flourish will increase the assets of the club to the point it can go ahead with further infrastructure improvements, maybe combined with another Canary Bond scheme which worked so well before.

Ambition, club development, a structured plan, brilliant young players choosing us because of our reputation for youth development, forward thinking management set up with Sporting director and great coaching set up, owners who leave footballing matters to professionals, a great Academy set up, a fine stadium with potential to grow it, a fan base most of who are tremendously supportive of what the club is doing..... ALL of that because of the owners we have. And some people still don't get it..........

 

 

Does Mick Dennis have a holiday home in the Lake District?
