The Real Buh 3,439 Posted January 1 I’ve said before that we can do all the marches and bedsheets we want, it will not make a difference until the news of our dissatisfaction in our ownership/management/way the club is being run escapes the gravity of local news and disseminates into more national news and crucially into the online independent football commentary/blogosphere if you like. I was watching a video from a commentator I follow online who is doing a mid season check on teams through the football league and she brought it up 14:58 for Norwich, she has us finishing 15th Its just a few words but I get the feeling this whole situation we have at the club is escaping our little space here. The club and of course Delias white knight army are trying there best to keep it under wraps but they won’t be successful. Whatever your opinion on it there is this fact. Delia Smith and us be dissatisfied, the whole thing, is GREAT CONTENT. You can come in at it from so many angles. The female ownership angle, sexism, ageism, humour (football fans find us being owned by Delia endlessly hilarious), crazy cat lady losing it slowly etc etc. This will be the downfall, this is the endgame. It has to be those influences outside the NCFC general gravity that change things. It’s what the ownership fear the most. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All fans of other clubs do immediately give it the “Does Delia make all the matchday pies, eh? Eh?!”, ” “CakeyCakey Cook Pun *laughs heartily*” sort of thing. This can be harnessed. The “nice old lady gone rogue” angle can be used to generate pressure on her. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
......and Smith must score. 1,343 Posted January 1 How can anyone watch that ? All stop/start and a pretty impenetrable accent to boot. To be fair the points I did understand were decent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To be fair the points I did understand were decent. I honestly think she does some great unique stuff. I really enjoyed this report where she had a full day out at the football for the price of a new Liverpool shirt A chesterfield cup tie with amazing atmosphere a pitch invasion and everything. A reminder of the passion a football game can have and still does have in this country. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nu_matik 167 Posted January 1 To be fair, I dont think it's much of a secret at all. It's mentioned in our live streamed games on Sky, it's referenced in highlights, in national newspaper. It's also not as bad as some clubs either so isn't actually major news Most stuff I do hear in those spaces also manages to acknowledge that we have things to be excited by such as Attanasio, Knapoer etc. I supposed it depends if you're a cup half full or empty type. It's hardly terminal right now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mello Yello 2,296 Posted January 1 There's more than 20% disgruntled...It was her tipsy thought out figure snatched out of the air...It's just that the 'silent one's' prefer to not air their discontent vocally....preferring instead to either not attend or be part of a mass exodus leaving well before the final whistle...

I think its more that the 80% don't think it's all quite as and as the 20% despite feeling unhappy in some ways. The 20% just can't accept anything positive in most cases so feel they need to impress their full blown negativity onto others. Like, I am looking forward to Delia going. I'm looking forward to a new manager soon too. I don't feel it necessary to try and bad mouth every aspect of our fine to club to all and sundry because I'm unhappy with a few key parts that will be gone in good time anyway. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To be fair the points I did understand were decent. She actually makes some pretty good ground hopping videos to be fair, goes to a lot of lower league games in England and Scotland, and matches in leagues all over Europe. Accent is I presume because she is half Italian (name is Nieve Petruzziello). Didn't fancy even clicking on this video, title has zero appeal, but some of her stuff is really good and she is really knowledgeable about lower league clubs.

I think that 100% of people are disgruntled at the way we have been playing at times over the last few years - but it's only 20% who think it's easily solved! Sack Farke, Smith, Wagner, Webber, Knapper! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe you should try telling that to Delia, that she should leave NCFC and stick to her pies? In person would probably work better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lol, I’m very much not a sexist. If Delia was a bloke drunk cook I’d give that theoretical person just as much s41t. She makes good videos and unique perspectives not the usual “Arsenal Fan TV” knockoff stuff every club, including our own, has. Some guy on a GoPro at Carrow road doesn’t interest me in the slightest. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
