Syteanric 1 Posted July 11, 2008 a bad start to the season will do it... If are in the same position this october as we were last October we MUST make our feelings clear.The club will try and scapegoat Roeder, just as they did with Grant, just as they did with Worthington... they will apprach Peter cullum with their tales between their legs.We are not competitive in The transfer Market, we are not competitive on the Pitch. im still of the opinion that the Smiths have promised the Turners the club.. thats why they are here... just what else, apart from a loan, have they bought to the football club?Delia has now sealed her exit from the club. By telling us back in October there was no investment, which wasnt true, and then by turning mr Cullum down flat she has sent out a statement that hers (and the rets of the boards) ambition can now be matched.we should expect Roeder to be given serious funds to make us capable of challenging for the title. Because as far as im concerned failure to win the League should signal the smiths Exit... We had the chance to do it! the chance to become major players in the division and attract the quality we all want here, but its been thrown back in all of our faces by someone who is living up their own backside! the board wont sell because they cant let go! not because Cullum didnt meet the vlautaion.Before you all reply consider this...If we get relegated just how much will the value of the club decrease by? Delia will lose money if she walks away, stays, or sells the club in that situation... meaning we are up the creek.. particularly if the administrators start sniffing... the board will get us into this mess.. then appeal for help to get us out!this, as far as im concerned was our last chance to get back to the premiership.. and the Club have blown it!Smith out!jas :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

King Beef 0 Posted July 11, 2008 Apparently the end of Delia''s reign has been going on for years now, she''ll be here til she''s being pushed around in her wheelchair by Doncaster - I just don''t know when the end will be anymore, there will be few better chances for her to go with dignity and respect in the next few years, such a shame. I get the feeling she''s going to be pushed out by the fans who support the club she saved. I feel it is definately time for her to go, but it would have been nice for her and MWJ to stand down with their heads held high. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shaun Tilly Lace 0 Posted July 11, 2008 I wonder if Smith and co have now become so deluded that they are not aware of the scale of the fan''s backlash that could develop from their pathetic rejection of Mr Cullum''s proposals? Personally, I''m sick and tired of the sight and sound of the woman. The club is her plaything, and she is just stubbornly and arrogantly refusing to allow anybody else to have a look in. I would guess that even if somebody met her unreasonable terms for a takeover - she would then move the goalposts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dan 0 Posted July 11, 2008 She always moves the goalposts to suit herself. She thinks she is something special. I was told by a good friend of mine who was working at the club, he over heard Delia speaking with a few people in a room. The conversation turned to having a supporter on the board. She piped up and said " huh i dont want any of the great un-washed ( the fans ) in here thank you very much. " Make of that what you will but that makes me angry every time i think of that. This is OUR club and do whats best for Norwich City FC and get out now Delia before things turn a little nasty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
