Hog 0 Posted July 1, 2008 Has anyone else noticed the huge amount of "new" people that have turned up in the last 24 hours or so, and the vast majority have completely pointless contributions to make. Are they just poorly educated newbies, glory hunters keen to suddenly support a rich club (which has not happened!) or Binners who have come to learn how to write proper English?

Chrisr 0 Posted July 1, 2008 Can''t speak for others, i''ve been a member for a while but preferred to watch rather than participate. Possibly I was prompted into posting something after being appalled by some of the toys from pram action witnessed in the last couple of days. Not a binner though.

norfolkchance1 0 Posted July 1, 2008 Yes I''ve noticed some pointless drivel being posted by people with a handful of posts who have just sprung up. Rumours with no foundation etc.Admittedly there may some people who have heard the news over the last couple of days and signed up to the message board for the first time to voice their opinions (I don''t mean these people).

Yelverton Yella 0 Posted July 2, 2008 As a ''newbie'' , I would just like to say that I am neither a binner nor a glory hunter!I''ve followed Norwich for 50 years and have lived the highs and lows over that time. I''ve lurked on here for years but never felt the need to contribute until now. Why now? Because the club we all love is at a crossroads and the direction it takes could determine future success or failure and I felt the need to contribute to the debate in some small way.I am neither a Delia lover nor an advocate of grabbing the first ''offer'' that comes along. I have considerable experience in my own career of takeovers and mergers and have tried, not very successfully, to pass on some of that knowledge to other posters who may not be familiar with these situations.I still do not understand why our independent local press has not put some fundamental searching questions to the two protagonists (see my topic yesterday afternoon); these are questions of principle and would not involve compromising negotiating positions. Until we have some answers to these or similar questions, the speculation and damaging accusations and counter accusations threaten to rip the heart out of our club.

Yesterday we hired old Frank Sinclair, good player in his time at Chelsea and elsewhere. Maybe he can still do a job for us in League Two - our very own Dion (hopefully). Got a good keeper in and a good chap from Chesterfield (Kovacs) so I''m really hopeful we''ll have a good season. But, then, I always am.....................exciting times.
