Making Plans 936 Posted October 23, 2021 The owners are not at this moment in time, our biggest problem. Changing them would take too long to take any effect. Even if we had the will and had the money, we can't change the players until January which would probably be too late anyway. We could get rid of Webber but that won't affect performance either. Therefore we are left with one of two options. Carry on as we are and be humiliated every other week and end up being relegated or get rid of Farke and hope that a new manager can make a difference. It's really is the only chance we've got 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's really is the only chance we've got Unfortunately so. We are basically at the point of stick or twist. Stick with Farke and hope against all the evidence against him at PL level that he can turn this around. Or twist on someone else, Olano makes a good claim for Bodo Glimt’s manager who beat Roma heavily midweek or there are the obvious Bruce, Howe opinions Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Badger 2,405 Posted October 24, 2021 14 hours ago, By Hook or Ian crook said: The days of someone coming in a investing millions and millions into any old team has gone now thanks to the supposedly fair play financial system designed to keep the rich rich and the small small Yes, I broadly agree but the mega billionaire owners can largely get around this because financial mismatch between them and he authorities and tying up the issue in the courts. + Unless you are a billionaire, you probably don't have enough money to make a big difference nowadays at Premiership level. That's why Derby would be a good buy - they only need to be decently (financially) managed for a few years and they will get promoted because of their other advantages: in many respects they would be similar to us. Ashley (or whoever) could then sell them in the premier and double their money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Surfbird 1 Posted October 25, 2021 (edited) Buh's statement 'nobody wants to buy us' is total nonsense. As has been said the owners do not want to sell period. Norwich City is a very attractive proposition. Full crowds, massive fan base, season tickets sold out. Big support in Norfolk and beyond. Most of you will know fans who can't get tickets for the games. Dual carriageway to London, easy train journey to London, International Airport 20 minutes from the ground. Carrow Road adjoining Riverside development for a full day out. Tens of thousands of new homes being built in Norfolk and surrounding areas. No competition for 40 miles. New technologies have meant world wide screening and messaging that has led to fans groups around the world. Someone with really big funds could increase the size of the stadium to 40,000 and beyond and would have a serious football club capable of fighting for European competitions and getting some trophies in the cabinet.
