. 0 Posted January 11, 2009 Well well....I see the sheep on here are finally changing their tune and calling for the celebrity cook to be driven out of Norwich....along with her latest joke of a managerial appointment.Trouble is it is too little too late. The time for serious protesting is past and there is now no point in removing Roeder only to replace him with another Smith loser as we spiral down into oblivion. It takes time to turn a ship around and I''m afraid the lethargy and limpness of the average City "supporter" during Smiths cynical tenancy will see the club dashed on the rocks.Oh how they mocked and ridiculed those of us who saw the writing on the wall years ago when something could possibly have been done. Oh how they derided Smudger following his valiant attempt to get the disatisfied voices heard via a protest. Oh how the ostriches refused to accept that their glorious "saviour" was in fact entirely mortal and in it purely for her own gain.Serves you right....only you''ve taken the real fans down with you.

Show Me What You Gooot! 0 Posted January 11, 2009 Are they selling the club? Don''t think anyone at the club has said that.They want donors (like Carl Moore).

Bury Yellow 2 Posted January 11, 2009 Sorry MMonkey but they have now clearly stated they are looking for investment not selling.They change their tune so often I admit it is difficult to keep up with them.They enjoy their little chats, rubbing shoulders with other, bigger, club owners. Spinning the media into thinking they are so so smart.The ''lets be ''avin you'' outburst was a disgrace but the media loved it. I rest my case Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lambo 0 Posted January 12, 2009 Wow... Cluck, your doing a really great job helping the club, perhaps if you got off your backside and actually tried to do something rather than sit behind a keyboard typing about how you saw it all coming then maybe we wouldn''t be in the situation we are?If you want people to follow you and get behind you, lead by example.

Say what you like...there were enough people on here early on who sounded the warning bells...but like me most of them have given up on the present regime/supporter mindset and will return only when reality comes back to Carrow Road.Sad that the sourness of the general forum loser holds them back from being open minded...but then most of them only play with those who agree with their own limited perspective.

Blofield Canary 11 Posted January 12, 2009 What the hell would it be other than an investment if somebody came in and bought the Smiths shares.Investment could be anything from £100 for a couple of replica shirts to £500 million and a team full of top players.In the current financial situation it is very unlikely that we will find a large investor so the best we can hope for is somebody willing to come on board with a few £2 or £3 million to top up what the Smiths can afford to put in.

Broken_hearted_canary 0 Posted January 12, 2009 how about you get off your computer seat and put some money in the club. Easy to say open your chequebook when its not your money at risk.The board, by appointing roeder, got us out of a hole last year and gave us an extra season in the top flight. maybe they can do it again. Otherwise without the stability of delia we''d be below leeds now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We''re all well aware that your political persuasion has a definite list to the right but politics and football just don''t have any real love for each other.Indeed if your beloved Maggie had had her way and outlawed professional football there''d now be no NCFC, good or bad, to discuss at all......
