Alex Moss 2,165 Posted January 31, 2007 that none of the doom merchants can find 30 seconds to thank Craig Fleming on his ''Good Luck'' thread. Does that not make you realise exactly who the real fans are?. It clarifies quickly who are the people that really care about this club......and who are the ones that just like to be heard on this message board. I think it''s a shame, quick to run the club down but certainly not quick to give loyal servants who''ve played their part in recent success a good send-off. Sort it out ''Fans''.

big dick sanchez 0 Posted February 1, 2007 I think not posting is better than posting message that pays lip service to being a thank you but then goes on to be a dig at the current team.I appreciate the people must have their say on the team but in a thank you message it shows little respect for someone who at the least was a decent servant for the club.

There''s many different beliefs on this board, and I certainly respect the fact that some people won''t post a message to CF purely because it''s not their style...Of course I don''t have a problem with that!. But it just seems a sad state of affairs that some of the doom merchants have such a problem with the club currently that they can''t even pay their respects to a committed ''through and through'' Norwich stalwart.

Gotta say found the ''over the top'' GOOD LUCK CRAIG!!! very amusing Smudger!...it echo''s my comment in the reply to 1st Wiz, sadly not all the ''doom merchants'' share a sense of humour (yes you ncfc1...cheer up). Not sure if the comment about ''knowledge of current'' City fans is a dig you cheeky focker, but rest assured Smudge, I''m a Norwich lad and have followed them 30 odd years so have seen a few players over this time, CF certainly being up there with the most committed!.

FLEM WAS EXCELLENT IN THE PROMOTION SEASON. HOW MANY GAMES DID YOU GO TO TO JUSTIFY A DIFFERENCE OF OPINION! HIS DECLINE SINCE IS IRRELEVANT TO THIS COMMENT.I do however think that Flem gave many good years to the club... Yes we let the wrong one go when we sold Malky...HINDSIGHT AND NOSTALGIA PLAYING TRICKS. I THINK WE WERE WRONG TO LET MACKAY GO BUT WE WOULD HAVE EQUALLY BEEN WRONG TO LET FLEM GO TO AT THAT POINT. RE MACKAY, WEST HAM DID THE SAME AND LOOK WHERE WATFORD ARE. THERE''S NO PROOF HE WOULD HAVE BEEN ANY BETTER IN OUR PREMIERSHIP SEASON .But hey I wish Flem all the best... although I think the time was probably right for him to just retire instead of trawling around in reserve teams on the bottom rungs of the footballing ladder.SO HE''S NOT ENTITLED TO CONTINUE MAKE A LIVING? LETS SCRAP LEAGUE ONE. ANY PLAYER OVER 30 SHOULD BE ASHAMED TO PLAY AT THAT LEVEL OR BELOW.GOOD LUCK CRAIG!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
