ca 1 Posted November 17, 2007 Has anyone bought a copy yet? Dont usually go out and buy one on Saturdays as its the thinnest EEN of the week and theres nothing much in it, hence I guess why Archant have saved his letter for today to boost sales. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gazzathegreat 0 Posted November 17, 2007 I have seen it, in fact bought the paper just to read it! Well it''s only 40p for god''s sake! Smudger has written a good letter, most of his points re the board are probably shared on here and elsewhere by City fans.At least he''s got up and done something and got his protest publicised, which I assume was his main intention.

ca 1 Posted November 17, 2007 Credit where credit is due, Smudger made his intentions to protest a few weeks ago and has never waived, he also said he would advertise the fact by letter to the local paper and he has. So unlike his mate Cluckie who moans and moans but does nothing, at least Smudger has balls.His letter in full for anyone living out of NorfolkJoin me in protest march to tell the NCFC board how fans feelI am writing to appeal to all NCFC fans who are sick of seeing our club run into the ground by a celebrity cook, to meet up at the Murderers at 1.30pm on Saturday Nov 24th.I propose we walk down to Carrow Road at 2pm and call for the board to sell up (handing the reins onto someone who wishes to be at the helm of a successful football team and not a catering, hotel, travel, office empire) I have stated that the events we are witnessing now were coming for the best part of 2 years now, with only a few who were prepared to listen to what is now becoming clear to one and all.It saddens me deeply that our fans have not questioned our board of directors more strongly. There have apologetically sat by as our club inevitably slides towards third tier of English Football for the first time in 48 years.I can without doubt say that the current team is a disgrace to the yellow shirt. It is certainly the worst in my time of following the club(with many others I know stating exactly the same) I honestly do not see how nobody who still backs Delia, Wynn Jones, Mumby, Doncaster, Foulger and the Turners can say that they have the best interests of NCFC at heart. It was not my wish to lead a demonstration but something must be done. I am willing to stand up and be counted for the good of our football club, how many ore of you are willing to join me? So lets meet up next Saturday at 1.30pm ( prior to the Coventry game) at the Murderers either inside or out in order to walk to Carrow Road at 2pm to tell this board of directors exactly what we think of them.How many will turn up to show the board exactly how frustrated they are?I am willing to give our fans this one last chance to show that they have the stomach for a fight.Mark Smith Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
