TeemuVanBasten 3,328 Posted October 23, 2021 Half the world watching this game is not embarrassing at all. The tactics are brilliant. The players are excelling. There is an obvious pride and passion in the players, who are all oozing confidence and definitely look like the buy into the plan and know what they are doing. There is nothing at all concerning about having all of your most expensive attacking talent on the bench. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don’t forget you have to predict a top 6 finish at the start of the season and call anyone who doesn’t think we’ll stay up a moron. Then when it becomes apparent we will go down you say anyone who thought we could stay up on our budget is a moron. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So desperate to see us compete at this level but for whatever reason we are mentally broken when we come up. When we first came up last time we gave it a go and looked like we could give a few teams a nosebleed but now we look done. Think Farke has been outstanding for Norwich and I would love him to turn it around but at the moment beating last times 21 looks a challenge. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean I'm not wrong though am I. Also, why do you have to be either a happy clapper or the absolute opposite? I am not one nor the other. It is possible to not be an extreme version of something you know. It's called 'reasoned' or 'balanced', FYI. Also, the PS you refer to you know full well was tongue in cheek, for amusement. It was on your thread and blatantly obvious. But you knew you were taking it out of context. Makes your point 'valid'. Football aside, you generally are just a complete cnt. It's genuinely sad.

Yes I totally get your point but I guess a forum is set up for opinions and that is always likely to drive more people to have a dichotomy of views. Personally, I always like to carry an element of hope as that’s what being a fan of a club like Norwich is about but each to their own. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Certain posters just love to bang that drum over and over though don't they? And they always become more active when it's going wrong. I think they genuinely take pleasure in it. Its embarrassing really. But it speaks volumes about their psyche. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some of us just want you happy clappers to f*ck off and stop validating our clubs engrained tinpot culture of pessimism and defeatism by rationalising abject failure all the time. That's the problem we have with the eternal happy clappers. Edited October 23, 2021 by TeemuVanBasten 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The absolute state of this thread and your post i've just quoted tell everyone on this forum that you're not worth even vaguely entertaining on any sort of intellectual level.
