Rhino1 292 Posted January 6 I cannot believe the utter turd coming from an increasing number of Norwich fans. Their ignorance of where the reality is for Norwich, is myopic to say the least! Limited funds, limited quality and a fan base with immature short term unrealistic expectations! The constant knocking of the manager does not help anyone, and just adds unnecessary pressure on the team and club, as a result of non realistic expectations ! Constant change because we don’t deliver for a few games will push us further in the mire rather than reaching for the stars!! The grass isn’t greener!!! Grow up band of boo boys! 2 1 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Harry53 211 Posted January 6 (edited) DW made too many changes against a fired up team who played us off the park. The subs bench was simply inadequate to change the game when it was needed, and it truly did. No creativity, endless sideways and back passing and we expected to win?? What a joke. Wagner should have made maybe no more than two chances and gone all out to win. He didn't and we in fact deserved to lose.

Feedthewolf 4,891 Posted January 6 I did think it was a bit strange starting the 'Wagner out' chants towards the end of the 90 minutes and in stoppage time. Surely you'd be better off putting your energy into whipping up some atmosphere to try and roar the players to victory, and then chant as much as you like at the final whistle? If we were 2-0 down then I could totally understand it, but sometimes our fans do tend to have the mentality of 'disaster tourists' who are just waiting for an error to pounce on so they can let rip. I totally get the duality of the situation, though, and there isn't much entertainment coming from the pitch to help generate that atmosphere. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A fantastic chance to experiment with a bit more attacking line-up and approach in front of some new supporters. But no it's the same old tedious plodding football to bore the **** off everyone watching. Wagner really doesn't help himself.

Yeah I was there mate, but in the Jarrold where there was very little atmosphere of any sort. I did acknowledge at the end of my post that the lack of excitement on the pitch doesn't exactly incentivise the fans to get behind the team. It just surprises me that the vocal fans in the Barclay/Snakepit are more interested in having a dig at the manager than trying to help us win the match. As I said, if we were losing I could understand it, and I totally respect their right to give Wagner pelters on the full-time whistle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
