Sad days.

Having listened to the match unfold on the radio, there are clearly a lot of questions to be answered. That Grant got the two trips to the potteries badly wrong, is indesputable. already without the services of Huckerby, to include the likes of Earnshaw and Safri for the port vale game was a crass decision. Class is in such short supply up at Colney, and a severely weakened team would have gleaned the same poor result anyway. Playing doherty in central midfield is clearly beyond his capabilities, the only time you heard mention og Doc, was the repeated conceding of a string of free kicks. the least said about ashdown the better. apart from the simon Tracey clone in goal, all the other dross on show were worthington men, so he has to carry his share of the blame. as for the players, one simply has to wonder about the standard of person within the squad when the team continuosly shows so little  integrity and professionalism and plain effort. Wonder what the nightclubs are like in stoke? A fish it is said rots from the head down, and ''little old Norwich'' simply cannot be expected to compete with giants such as burnley, plymouth coventry and stoke now can they. After all, our crowds are only double or more than those clubs attract, and we are in such debt, unlike all those cash rich, underfunded clubs. That the club has a cancer deep within is beyond doubt. The removal of a poor manager, while welcome, is not the answer to all our prayers. Hotels, restaurants and the like are de rigeur at Carrow Road, not footballers. How much of the debt was attained by spending on the team, and how much on corporate hospitality, and non-footballing things? By all means, when apportioning blame for this dreadful situation, blame worthington, for bringing in such garbage in such great numbers, to go through the motions on a regular basis on our behalf. Blame Grant for his bizarre, worthington style decisions, but look a little higher for the real guilty parties. Basically, it is now time for money leeched from the playing side to be repaid in full to get the squad up to a suitable and acceptable standard. If Delia Smith and the rest find this unpalatable, and prefer to continue to concentrate on food, then i suggest that they look up ''Mandaric'' in the phone book, because this crap cannot continue.
