Middle of the Road 0 Posted October 14, 2006 Nonsense. I genuinely believe that if we stay relatively injury free we can go up. The squad is too thin, but despite what some might have you believe there is a lot of quality in the side. Croft, Huckerby, Earnshaw would push for a place in any champtionship side. The midfiels has quality too. If we can tighten up defensively we could go on a long successful run.No doubt there will be lots of criticism from those that want to see us fail but whatever they say, with judicious additions, there is every chance that we could have a successful season.

Just got back from QPR and if you''d have asked me yesterday if I''d have taken a 3-3 draw I would have said yes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JC 0 Posted October 16, 2006 There are quite a few posts saying that the midfield is good, and specifically that Etuhu is doing well. I can''t see any of this I am afraid. Etuhu would disappear into the reserves in a bigger squad, and apart from the stuttering Saffri, I cannot see how anyone can state ''the midfield has quality''. Half the problem with our defence is that our FIVE man midfield goes AWOL and does not protect the back four.[quote user="Middle of the Road"]Nonsense.

Ginja 26 Posted October 16, 2006 I agree with your post partially, it certainly would be a major turnaround to finish top of the league and IMO it is out of our reach. I think our most likely hope will be to scrape a play offs at best and I would be extremely impressed if we managed to do better than that. Come on Norwich prove me wrong!

Where is Grant going to get hold of several quality players in double quick time with no budget?

You could be right, equally you could be wrong.[/quote]SOB....I might not be popular on these boards.....but I am a realist.I base my case on what has gone before and by watching the Carrow Road business plan evolve. I think by my signature you can see that I readily admit I could be wrong....but equally, I could be right as you say. Isn''t that democracy in action? Should I be denied putting the opposite argument forward to please the majority? Based on personal experiences........I have my individual slant on things and on what has happened at the club.As a lifelong Norwich supporter I would be delighted to see Grant do a good job. Then like so many others here, I could leave this board behind and pretend I had wanted him all along..........That''s the easy way...and the way many people would go.It''s all conjecture.....and these boards are like blowing into the wind.

So keeping the blinkers on, keeping focussed on winning games and points, might seem like a very good idea right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
