I don’t mind if that means tapping up his old contacts like Wagner Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dean80 1 Posted January 2, 2023 I was listing to talksport today and they mentioned there 4 candidates on the short list and one mentioned Steven Thomas Schumacher as one of them, I hope so a young manager what Norwich need Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Samwam27 606 Posted January 2, 2023 Just listened to the interview. Can't recall any mention about a bright young manager. Webber did say 2 on the shortlist aren't even on any of the betting lists! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

littleyellowbirdie 3,138 Posted January 2, 2023 (edited) You know what? Perhaps now people have had a reality check of what our squad is capable of without a manager, maybe people should just get behind whoever replaces Smith rather than the usual 'I won't be convinced until umpteen wins in a row with beautiful free-flowing football for the whole 90 minutes'.

But the fans were behind the team all game? Why didn’t the players get a lift from all their positivity - there were non-stop songs all game, yet… 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although in no way defending D Smith (manager), any objective reasonably minded fans would not begrudge him spouting a wry smile tonight as he sits at home counting out his 'severance' payment and seeing the team get just a solitary point and a solitary goal in then two home matches since he was axed. Maybe, just maybe Smith was NOT 100% to blame and others should have shouldered the responsibility also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think anyone said he was 100% the problem, we all acknowledge issues further up the chain, but he was 100% one that was needed to be replaced , unfortunately its harder to get changes further up forced upon, was glad to hear Webber Out chants tonight but a majority of the fan base do not have the stomach to turn on Delia and Michael publicly.
