Google Bot 3,260 Posted October 12, 2021 I'd fund a pro Norwich propaganda news channel on terrestrial TV and dig up dirt on any pundit/ex player who slags us off. There would be hours of content to fill, so I'd employ Cambridge to fill the programming with his own series entitled "What I found on the internet". We'd also have "The gloves are off" style debates with rival supporters but heavily edit their reactions to favour us and make them appear weak. The adverts would mainly consist of supporters of top clubs pleading to be a Norwich supporter, including clips of children sat crying in their Chelsea tops. Any official "doing us wrong" would result in live broadcasts outside their home that weekend where we'd question them as they left the house or got in their car. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The slight difference being that when I wear a jacket made of a substance derived from oil, I'm not participating in a clear propaganda exercise. It's not like they are in football in order to make a profit is it, it's to try to portray their regime as benevolent when it clearly isn't. I also object to many Chinese policies, it's not hypocritical to have anything Chinese produced in my house whilst disliking their regimes torture of dissidents. It's would still be perfectly consistent to object if a clearly politically directed body of the PRC bought any British institution in order to try to whitewash it's own misdeeds even if I do own a cheese-grater. Anyway my joke was very much at my expense not yours, it was self mocking. So I'm not quite sure what got your goat about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Played them in 1976, lost 4-2 in an end of season tour match - skinned by a CF who went on to play for Fulham. 6 immaculate pitches and a club house to die for…. - yup building land now🙁 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alex Moss 2,165 Posted October 12, 2021 I would definitely invest a significant amount in our club, and a nice chunk for the CSF so Eddie and all the good folks who work wonders for the cause could put their feet up for more than just a little bit. I’d buy up significant areas of heathland on the south coast of England to protect our rare reptiles, birds, and insects etc from **** developers. The rest I’d blow on hookers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

birchfest 397 Posted October 13, 2021 I've often thought about this when I have jumped on a Euromillions roll over, £184 million would be quite a big responsibility. A lot of opportunities to do good and some easy quick ways to waste it! In terms of Norwich I always thought funding the City Stand rebuild would be a good way to use a portion of it. Make Carrow Road look 'complete' and modern, get the capacity up to 32,000. I'd also want as a condition for 500 seats every game available to various charities, kids homes etc and also for there to be other community facilities built into the stand. Id also be a bit cheeky and make half the funding an interest free loan, payed back at 1 million a season but only in seasons Norwich are in the top flight... would act as an extra bit of fun for my family in the years to come with regards to Norwich doing well! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
