Well if I''m Neil Doncaster (and it took people a while to realise THAT) then of course it could easily be Peter Cullum!

Seriously, you are having a chuckle aren''t you? 

What on earth is your point about conspiracies here?

Might have some sympathy if Roeder hadn''t brought it all on himself. The way he treated players showed him to be an extremely unpleasant person at times.Was it Chris Lakey who reported that Roeder referred to Cureton as "the one at Barnsley". The best thing his family can do now is to counsel him on how to become a nicer human being. Dennis was wrong and Adam Aikin was right: good riddance.

Potless, I was just having a bit of Friday fun...or at least I was until this arriviste upstart blahblahblah attempted to pass himself off as me!

[Faded Jaded Semi Plastic SOB 1,023]

It ignores the fact that a lot of fans will have had to deal with personal tradegies, redundancy etc whilst still supporting Norwich City. This sort of reporting just makes me cringe.

What happened after the game was all very predictable. He should have kept his family away. Reference to Gunns sentimental speech, where were the tears for the kit man etc. who the nasty man kicked out on a whim?

Anyone else notice the author of the 2nd comment?!

[/quote]

"towergate"

Someone who is pro-Cullum, but hardly likely to be the man himself.  Is your name really Mr Brownstone?

 

[/quote]

Yes my name really is Mr Brownstone. It''s not a  reference to my favourite band whatsoever. Any connections between that name and Guns N'' Roses are purely coincidental. And I certainly wasn''t making a conspiracy theory joke and firmly believe that Peter Cullum has nothing better to do with his time than to make comments on Mick Dennis articles.

mick dennis'' article is a good read... just because the article comes from someone who is close to delia and co and might look at things from a different view doesn''t make it a bad article... or... make dennis a bad person. 

not once did he say roeder shouldn''t have gone...

sorry to have a different view... it''s clear a lot of city fans don''t like that!
[/quote]just like glenn roeder, he was a nasty bloke, i do not feel sorry for him one bit, i''m sure the few hundred grand he''ll take from us will soften the blow of a few chants!

[quote user="tribes"]So the Board didn''t really want to sack hm, it was just the nasty Norwich supporters that did it. Dennis makes me sick. [/quote]

 

the board didnt want to sack roeder though it was supporter pressure.

[kick it off 1,952]

"Upstairs in the lounge a senior member of staff told the Roeders’

daughter that, when she was ready, he would escort her to her car via a

discreet exit so that she could avoid the mob."As if anyone actually knows or cares who she is. what a joke!

[lincoln canary (& Golden Coppel) 0]

this article is a little to much imo to be spouting in the media. reading this made me ashamed/guilty for calling for roeders head at sheff utd, but why should i feel like that? my club i love is falling to pieces i have a right to protest, plus there has never been any chants to his family nor the obcene comments made about him by west spam and newcastle. but anyway if was executed in away which made me feel a bit guilty imagine what the rest of the nation will think!? this guy is tarnishing ncfc reputation

this is not a fair article to publish mick, making us sound like we had roeders family held hostage, what are you playing at?!

I can''t believe any journalist could sink so low as to write an article like that, it so annoyed me that I registered with the Express (and believe me, that was against my better judgement) in order to pen the following comment to the article.

"Sycophantic drivel and certainly not worthy of appearing in a national newspaper.
To intimate that any of GR''s family would have been harmed is way over the top.
The truth is GR brought this on himself. He could and should have done the honourable thing and resigned before it came to this."

Yes . . . and how do you think it will come across to prospective managerial candidates used to the rough and tumble of the world of football?

Do you think it will make the job look more attractive?  No, nor do I.

Spectacular own goal Mick.

That isn''t the point....for once we''ve done the right thing in getting that clueless, nasty manager out of our club. Norwich is a laughing stock amongst other football supporters...outside the cosy walls of norfolk. Ask any set of fans at clubs where glen has managed and they will be saying the same things about roeder as we are now saying....i''ts not a conicdence!

[Mr.Carrow 376]

Lowest common denominator reporting of the most OTT and biased kind.  Cockney Mick, you must feel perfectly at home at the Daily Express.

[Match Day Pie 0]

We have every right to protest and Dennis is off the mark, and the whole ''they''ll trash your car'' nonsense is just over-zealous security nazis gone mad.

But he''s got a point though. Some of you have absolutely delighted in Roeder''s downfall, as you did in Worthy''s. That game against Burnley was the most shameful we''ve ever experienced. There were so many enjoying a proud and once succesful man''s demise. And you''ll keep doing it until we find a manager who gets nothing less than three points from every game. Roeder didn''t insult you, he didn''t tell you your mother was a w*ore, he quite rightly questioned why most of the idiots at the AGM were still crying over Huckerby when there were far more important things they should have been discussing (like taking the board to task? Oh, forgot about that small matter, did we?) But those of you with nothing better to do in your lives think that being nasty is constructive because you''re a ''fan''.

Disgraceful.

What a ridiculous point! Did we do any of these things? No. We merely stood inside and outside a football ground, OUR football ground, and let the board know what we wanted! There were no personal attacks on the man or his family, as has been stated earlier in the thread that happened at Newcastle and West Ham. Glenn knew what was coming, as it was only a matter of time. Maybe it wasn''t the greatest of ideas for him to have his family there at such a time if they were going to get so upset? I don''t know. But for Dennis to come out with that sort of speil in a national publication is nothing short of disgusting.

[BlueJam 0]

Most of you are read-between-the-line berks aren''t you?The article was very well written, and I enjoyed it greatly. It also highlights that there are real people involved. I don''t really think it was having a pop at anyone, if anything it highlighted the "fan power".Sort it out.

Disgraceful?  Just what is disgraceful???  Had he been remotely successful I don''t think any of us would have "delighted in Roeder''s downfall".  Then fact is his results over the last 12 months had been truly appalling and the Charlton match was the final straw for many of us.  As for the Worthy business, the Burnley game was not "the most shameful we''ve ever experienceed" but the performance on the pitch perhaps was!  Norwich supporters are some of the most placid and forgiving in the country and things have to get pretty bad before there''s any show of dissent so don''t start criticising the long-suffering fans for the ongoing decline of our once great club.

Ah Mick Dennis. A more biased, one-sided sycophant you will struggle to find. I have to agree with him though, Glenn Roeder was so accomodating to other member''s of staff and in particular their families. He always considered how his decisions would impact on other people and their loved-ones. The most striking example of this must surely have been when he culled almost his entire backroom team overnight. He sacked our long-serving kit man Terry Postle, Mrs Postle must have been delighted with that. He sacked our chief scout Alan Wood, I bet Mrs Wood was over the moon upon receiving the news. He sacked Peter Shaw, his family must have been ecstatic at that. Finally he got rid of Rod Dyer, I''m sure Mrs Dyer was delighted. In yet another act of integrity, Mr Roeder publicly belittled and then sacked Neil Adams for the heinous crime of daring to voice an opinion that differed from his own. Did Roeder consider the impact on Neil''s family? Roeder deliberately denied Darren Huckerby (a living legend for Norwich supporters) the chance to say a proper goodbye. Did he consider how this would make Huckerby and the fans feel? Oh wait a minute, Glenn Roeder has an entire back catalogue of hurtful actions- its called karma Mick, you live by the sword, you die by the sword.

It''s very difficult to have any sympathy for Roeder. The man was arrogant to the core and has probably permanently damaged our great club with his grudges and favourtism. It''s wholeheartedly wrong to state that fans were putting anyone in that director''s box in danger. It was a protest, aimed only at trying to let the board know how some fans were thinking. It''s not against the law to have an opinion that differs from your great friends Delia and Michael. They did the right thing for the long-term future of the club. For once.
