Iwan is God 0 Posted June 21, 2009 Well according to you Wiz, Gunn will definitely fail & promotion is not on the cards. So, this post is pointless! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hogesar 9,503 Posted June 21, 2009 A. Would he go? I doubt it. I don''t think there''d be any clubs better than us interested after getting us promoted.B. Would you care? I think consistency would be important, so losing him as soon as we get promoted might hinder our chances the following season.C. At least he''d no longer be the Odd Job man around the club.

Romantic 0 Posted June 21, 2009 Wiz. Are you paving the way for a more open minded stance as regards Gunn? You must admit you have a tendency to turn more often than a London Taxi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John 0 Posted June 21, 2009 [quote user="First Wizard"]A. Would he go? You''re going to have to elaborate on that scenario, as i just can''t see how or why you could possibly imply that he may leave the club for another, unless your asking whether he''d retire after one decent season?B. Would you care? If he were to get us promoted then yes. You''d assume the players would of taken to him in this scenario, and the last thing we''d need in this case would be another break up in the dressing room. And after 5 (or what would be 6) years of trying to search and find at least an ounce of harmony with the squad and staff now, it would seem so cruel to us and the club to break it up immediately.C. At least he''d no longer be the Odd Job man around the club. If we''re being honest... That isn''t really a question is it?[/quote]Anyway, this is all irrelative, as i am utterly convinced Gunn can''t manage this club.Bryan''s last 5 or 6 games in charge were undeniably shamefully performed, ''especially'' considering the circumstances. And i imagine it could only be at Norwich that we could see someone continue their job after a shocking run of results like that, leading unto what it ultimately did for the club (i.e. relegation).It''s Disgraceful that he still now controls the same position of authority at the club that he did last season, and i expect nothing but carnage and failiure at Norwich next season.My dreams of hope and success at Norwich can no longer live if we persist with utter incompetence.The whole scenario joke, and we''re a joke for it.

[/quote]Whilst I''m very nervous and doubtful about Gunns ability Romantic, I am thinking, slowly, of cutting him some slack for the first few games to see if it was indeed all Roeders fault for the mess we''re in.I''ve done the same with the new signings, but as they say, Gunn has form, he precided over our relegation.

William Darby 0 Posted June 21, 2009 Come on chaps it''s a fair question by Wiz.IMO I doubt he''d go, either way he''d get shifted around the club again. I suspect in the future the board are laying foundations for Gunn to be a Board Member. So in that sense ''Mr Odd Job'' will stay here indefinitely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would he go?B. Would you care?C. At least he''d no longer be the Odd Job man around the club.Hmm?[/quote]In response to Question A; No, I don''t think he would go. I mean, he is Norwich through and through. The family live here and I''m sure he wouldn''t want to leave them at home or move anywhere else.Question B; I think Gunn has come in for a bit of a hard time. Especially on this forum. Yet, the internet is faceless so people feel like they can say what they want, instead of venting their anger in a more positive way. I was not a fan of the appointment, simply because i think Gunn has done too much for the club to put his legendary status on the line. But, we''re not gonna make a change by whining on a message board. So, if he got replaced as manager then so be it, but I would care if he still wasn''t around at the club and as an ambassador for the city.C isn''t a question.

Houston Canary 0 Posted June 22, 2009 If he gets headhunted by FC Barcelona, Man U, or Argentina, why would he stay in Norwich? If he gets headhunted by Hartlepoole, Cowdenbeath or Lowestoft, why would he go? It''s all relative, isn''t it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Superflash 0 Posted June 22, 2009 I''d be surprised seeing as he''s been with the club for some many years now, but I''d wish him all the best. He''s been more than loyal to the cause for better or worse. If he went to Ipswich though....that''d take the biscuit. The thing is in football today, the examples of people staying at one club for an extended period of time are becoming increasingly rare. The managers are not given much time if results dip (we''re just as guilty of this, although in the case of Grant and Roeder I still think their dismissals were justified), the players are basically in a glorified cattle market and with the recession stirring up all kinds of finacial issues even the higher ups are moving clubs. If anything, his leaving could be a question of when and not if. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corbs 0 Posted June 22, 2009 I wanted Roader to see out last season. I thought it was a good idea to bring in Gunn for the Barnsley game. I was concerned that he got the Job for the rest of last season. I was against his appointment. But then what do I know, with my track record he will probably be the best thing since jonnie Bonds green and yella army? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think he deserves a shot at building his own team and giving it a go.Like most managers he may fail or may do well. Only time will tell.I remember how everyone was clamouring for Paul Jewell to become our manager............ not many would have him now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
