Hardhouse44 261 Posted November 10, 2007 But who is going to save us from Delia.We hear nothing from the queen of catering. She hide in the shadows.Turns out she will take us to a depth that is far below anything we witnessed under Chase.We are a once great club. Now to be a drunken fools play thing and she has the gaul to say that she will only sell to somebody who is from our region and who has the clubs interests at heart. The heart of this club has been torn out.I apologise if I seem melodramatic but it is how I feel tonight.Somebody, anybody do something. Give us back hope.Give us back prideGive us back FOOTBALL.God I miss it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seat124 0 Posted November 11, 2007 She does NOT have Norwich city football club in her heart as we do. Just look around at that poxy hotel, catering facilities and the ludicrous "yellows" and that will tell you what she is all about.Chase got pilloried (rightly so at the time) and 95% of the fans were behind the force to get him out. Unfortunately, due to this person in charge being a woman, i would say that the support is split right down the middle, hence the poisonous attmosphere in the barclay at present.how i would love a Smith Out chant to ring around the ground as the chase out one did those short years ago, but i fear that this would once again lead to more infighting with those wearing the cooks apron and hat.Nice hotel ...footballs sh*t.

ricky knight 0 Posted November 11, 2007 You now have a different breed of fan since the Chase era. Clones Content with their season ticket, happy clapping, and worshipping at the church of Saint Delia, prepared to be spun like a top, god forbid anyone she have any dissent against their Goddess. Their is no drive or passion, no bottle for a fight, no reality to whats happening to our club, Oh well if we go down we will win DIV1, numpties.Even now things cant get any worse they still cant get up for a demo, must not upset Delia, she saved us, if that were true and it aint, she and her cronies are now destroying us.

It''s credibility we need...not yellow painted pansies. Give ''em a while and they''ll all revert to their "first" club once again leaving the grass root City supporter to repair the damage done.Given their short memories regarding all things Delia....they will have forgotten about NCFC in a few weeks and moved onto NFL or whatever else Sky Tv is publicising at the time.

jelltex 0 Posted November 11, 2007 Whether we like to admit or not; but without the people you describe the club would be in a even worse stae filling the ground week after week. What would you rather have, crowds down to 15,000 and the club in further financial trouble?I just wish people would stop fighting amongst themselves, aportioning blame, rather than getting behind the club in the manner we saw last week. There are those around here that are only happy when they have something to complain about.: creating more and more conflict and tension. I''m not saying there are not things to be angry about, but this is hardly the way to go about it. There is a cancer at the club and on the terraces right now, and if it aint sorted out this as much as who is on the board will drag the club down. By all means carry on this pathetic squabbling and namecalling at the so called Johnny come lately fans, declare yourselves the true fans, and all the while the club is being poisoned. Grow up and get a grip. The club is more importnat than who is the true(r) fan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Smith and Jones were then invited pon to the board in return for investment is another fact. Later Watling chose to sell his shares to them is another fact. So where are the facts that Watling saved us from Chase? Was Chase like Mick Mcmannus, a big baddie being hounded out by the ''old dears favourite'' Geoffrey Watling??
