Why would anyone? I know this is only because of a last minute request at the last meeting - but it''s pretty obvious to me how Wednesday will go. No-one wants to criticise Gunny, and it wouldn''t be fair to do so - so if we stay up, it''ll just be cheers, thumps on the back, with anyone not happy at the prospect of him getting the job permanently either drowned out or afraid to say so. And if we go down, his presence will probably calm and almost tranquilise the mood of those present: how does one go about criticising and lambasting the board (because that is what they deserve) and seeking answers when they won''t be present, but a City legend, their appointment and someone who''s worked for the club for many years will be?I''ll be frank about this. If we go down, or even if we don''t, he''s about the worst possible person you could have at the meeting: he''s a lame duck. I should''ve been aware of the previous meeting, and it''s entirely my fault that I wasn''t; and I do want to get involved with NCISA in some way. But the people I want to question are Doncaster, Delia, Munby (who I still quite like) and MWJ. But Gunny? What''s the point? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The club in complete turmoil. The board demonstrating a complete dereliction of duties over the last 4 seasons. And what happens?Gunny and Co are wheeled out to face the NCISA and not a board member in sight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What''s the point?[/quote]Gunny turned up, uninvited, at the end of the last meeting which helped to diffuse what was becoming a heated discussion. Yes it wa staged managed.The meeting then ended with questions to Gunn while Doncaster and Munby "regrouped"Like you I happen to like Roger and have known him,through business, for some years. PR yes but still what I would call a gentleman.Doncaster is a solicitor and there me lord I will rest my case.Gunny/Butterworth/Crook will come and answer the usual why did you couldn''t you type ,easy, questions, because they are who and what they are.Interesting, probably, but not what most fans now want.I think that, at this stage, the chances of a meeting with the majority sharehoulders is very remote. One board member was convinced ,at one time that PC would have taken over by now! So I don''t think all is harmony.I still find it surprising that the old staff under Chase, Neville/Bond/Housego etc all prefered him to DS and were all soon disposed of (Neville earlier to Leicester) to be replaced by DS/Doncaster yes men.That statement includes Mr Gunn who effectively removed Trevor Bond from office having told him he would have his job!Sorry rambling, NCISA now need to remove the "closeness" ,that familiarity breeds, with the club, and start to become active in and instrumental in helping to either remove or severly changing the direction of the current set up.That is of couse if they have that sort of mandate from their members.

gazzathegreat 0 Posted May 2, 2009 If nothing else this week will, I am sure, determine the course NCISA takes for a long period of time. Like Kathy, I largely agree with Nutty and CA, but, as with all groups, the committee have to represent all of the membership, and I can tell you, that some of them are very much in admiration of the board and what they have put into the club so far. IMO, and I hasten to add it''s just mine, I would have liked to have seen a public meeting while Roeder was still in the job, and have done ever since. I agree wholeheartedly with John''s final paragraph above. I would certainly welcome a distancing from the club (and by that I mean a distancing from the board''s policies and the surrounding spin machine). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Puzzy magnet 0 Posted May 3, 2009 Presumably his contract runs out today so he won''t technically be the club''s manager? Or maybe we''ve been lied to and he has got the job regardless of whether he actually won a game or not. Norwich City: run by idiots, for idiots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
