Oh, the £100m irony

Recommended Posts

Facebook timelines pretty much reflect what we use it for. So for me it's a positive happy place. The stuff on the Norwich City groups will be constantly near the top the timelines of people who join the groups and read them regularly.

Anyone else remember the thread on here where the OP stated Canary Player had been hacked by pornsites?

Like I said I was entertained by it. Found it amusing. In my mind's eye it could be a sketch on Harry Enfield where a guy goes into a pub for the first time ever, goes straight up to the bar, doesn't say hello or buy a drink, confronts a group of people having a chat and tells them they're saying the most idiotic and incorrect stuff he's ever heard in there and there's been some real contenders.

I guess you don't find that at all amusing. Each to their own.

Oh I’ve read many a post on here before Nige. Tried to register a couple times of times before but never got the confirmation email.

Anyway as I’m new I don’t know all the rules so you will have to fill me in.

How many months must I pretend to agree with everything you say before I can disagree? I wouldn’t want to bruise any egos...

Yea I understand what you’re saying. I think inevitably they’ll strengthen or try to. I think they will have to strengthen every year if they want to build.

 Imo they have a stronger side than last year though.

I also think Villa are hoping the players they’ve signed will improve after a year in the prem. Most of their signings were in their early 20s. They might not of course.

You make some fair points, but I’m not sure they really invalidate what I said. If Villa have spent well, surely most of their recruitment once the season is over would be to upgrade on a couple of players? Whereas, given they have a team who at best will barely scrape 17th, it looks like they need a much more wide-ranging overhaul.

 

You draw a comparison with us - I think if we had seen our “little miracle”, most of us would agree we would need several replacements ether than just one or two marquee-type upgrades.

Well it looks as though £100m will get you out of the Championship judging by Fulham. Or if you spend £100m trying to avoid relegation, and fail, there's still a good chance you'll come back up the following season.

There’s quite a few on here that are gutted Villa and Fulham won’t be playing Championship football next season.

They are probably more gutted about it than they are Norwich playing Championship football.

As long as we are the best community club that ever existed and have the model what’s not to like.

Is the model the same thing as the project ?

All I do is post what I want where I want when I want. Then people can reply with what they want where they want when they want.

Perhaps there's an alternative universe where you didn't post, I wasn't amused and dear old Ren didn't get all precious about it. That place wouldn't be so much fun.

Of course they are disappointed that the two won't be in the Championship next year - it would increase our chances of promotion if these two were also in the Championship struggling to manage their debt and FFP!

Don't you want us to go up?

Would love that but then fear it.

I think that we should be better now that we have cleared the debt that we were facing - as long as we are sensible and patient and the covid thing doesn't ruin football club finances altogether.

Basically, we were still suffering from McNally's last phase when he was "ambitious" - i.e. fiscally irresponsible.
