WD40 726 Posted May 5, 2022 (edited) Quite a critical analysis from the Independent. I wonder if Webber is no longer talking to them anymore either? Slippery slope, Stu. Slippery slope. https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/norwich-stuart-webber-relegation-championship-b2071476.html Edit: calling Webber the “Neil Warnock of Sporting Directors” is a great line due to the opinion many hold about Colin on here!

Capt. Pants 5,008 Posted May 5, 2022 Reads as though it's been written by someone locally and sold on to the Independent. Not Mr Popular is he. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GodlyOtsemobor 2,830 Posted May 5, 2022 Maybe Mr 90% is going to go to into exile on everest.. so he doesn't have to talk to any press anywhere ever again. A kind of I'm taking my ball and going home approach. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

National coverage is unlikely to be as close as it reads. The club should be aware they can’t just put up the shutters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mengo 852 Posted May 5, 2022 When does it end Stuart . Take your ego and go and climb Everest. You are a major distraction to this beautiful football ⚽️ club. Such a beautiful and emotional song . You have shown know emotion towards the club or supporters. Please leave now . https://youtu.be/4L_yCwFD6Jo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sgncfc 1,330 Posted May 5, 2022 IMHO he's been very badly let down by the players. He's done himself no favours mind, with all his "climbing Everest" and 90% nonsense, but he could have expected the 4 loanees in particular to be better players than they are, as well as at least one of the £8m gambles to pay off. The fact that none of them have done anything at all apart from look pretty clueless is as much of a surprise to him, I suspect, as it is to a normal supporter. I don't think he'll move on. I think he'll wait until the season is over and then start to try to rebuild trust with the media and his reputation. If he does move on without doing that, another job in football above League One is going to be difficult to get. Just as a comparison, last night we witnessed a team valued at something over £600m completely bottle a Champions League Semi-Final, with a complete lack of an onfield captain or any leadership being visible, including from their bench. Players sometimes don't deliver, despite their apparent quality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Liverpool have 3 or 4 players who clearly hate losing. Manchester City have a more gifted team but not a 'captain' among them. Even Grant Holt in his prime would have got them through that game.
