BlyBlyBabes 0 Posted October 25, 2007 A canny Archie Macaulay type to build on the cheap and play the Norwich way.A stern, unyielding Ron Saunders type to bully and scrap our way.A rollicking, expansive John Bond character with confidence, contacts and savvy to rock and roll our way. We are deep in a hole and at the moment I don''t care which which type, so long as they get us one of the right types.Which type would you choose?OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blahblahblah 2 Posted October 25, 2007 A little bit of all of them I''d say. Who was that fella who built West Brom on the cheap a few seasons back, to bully their way to the top of this league ? Oh, never mind, he''s just been made manager of Bolton. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is probably exactly what the Board are thinking at the moment....I know I would be. While I was a great fan of Archie Macaulay and think this has to be our ultimate approach, I think the Ron Saunders approach needs to be employed initially and, of course, we need to acquire two or three players that will fit into that style to lead the rest of the boys in toughening up. P.S. No change from Cluck. He is unable to provide a ha''pence worth of input but continues to inject each thread he participates on with his single-minded poison toward the Board. Come on Cluck, tell us why this is the case. Why did you not join in on this message board a few years ago when almost all posters were enjoying a turn in the club''s fortunes? Why was that Cluck....please tell us....you know you have an agenda.....go on, be a sport, tell us what your real agenda is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

T 191 Posted October 25, 2007 I have to admit some posters are consistent but I just don''t bother to read the broken record any more as there is never any constructive comments. I''m starting to wonder if someone wasn''t jilted by the cook at some stage and can''t get over it ;-). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BlyBlyBabes 0 Posted October 26, 2007 [quote user="Maidstone Canary"]Ken Brown would do for me[:)][/quote]Well, I''m sure that Ken would do for all of us.But, I think my cental point is that Archie, Ron and Bondy came in & changed things radically in a successful way, whereas Ken, Dave and Mike really built on already solid foundations.And of course Neil C is essentially right. There''s no conflict between our views.OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Necton Canary 1 Posted October 26, 2007 Bly BlyI agree to some extent - perhaps with the exception of John who I thought was far to open in his crtisism of the players. I just remember how friendly things were under Ken and Mel Machin, the football was good to watch and it was fun at Carrow Road. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
