In Dubious Battle 0 Posted July 10, 2009 There seem to be so many uber negative posters on this forum, not just the glass half empty types I mean proper miserable bast*r*s. Every possible news/conversation takes the most negative connotation possible. May I suggest cricket? We (England) really suck at that you could take your miserableness to a whole new level!

Bobert 0 Posted July 10, 2009 Well tell me what good news has there been in recent months?Norwich have been relegated; Bryan Gunn has been appointed manager for the comming season; a bunch of businessmen without money have been appointed to the Board; our former Chief Executive has had his class proved by being appointed to head up the SPL; our signings have all been freebees (no one to sort out contacts being my guess); two thirds of our supporters took their refunds,I don''t see any good news there do you?

Strangers All 0 Posted July 10, 2009 Norwich have a good chance of being in a promotion battle for the first time in years; The managment nightmare that was Roeder has finally been ejectedand a man that bleeds yellow & green has been appointed in his place; Doncaster has been removed as far away as possible; New players have been added to the squad without a loanee in sight; and a third of our supporters have contributed to increased funds for our squad.Wow, the glass is half full.Up the city!!!

singing canary 0 Posted July 10, 2009 do you blame them ?glad your happy with how norwich city has been run over the last ten years .i dont like cricket anyway .i want my team to do well and people are allowed to say how they feel .if newcastle got relegated to the third tier of football next season how do you think the fans will react ?oh well at least they are trying .. i hardly think so .15,000 are not renewing thier season ticket after relegation to the championship .worst season for fifty years and have not bought the obvious piece of the jigsaw needed still .sorry if this come across wrong have we reason to be positive when pretty much every team looking for investment or to sell up gets it .do we...... no ? why not ...?ask yourself that question .

. 0 Posted July 10, 2009 It''s a case of realism versus hopelessly misplaced optimism... the usual battleground on here.Neither camp it seems will change their stance until there is root and branch change at the club... so don''t hold your breath.It''s odd that the bleating of the sheep doesn''t cause me to lose much sleep.... yet there are constant whingers about the realism expressed by others.

corbs 0 Posted July 12, 2009 As the season approaches I feel better than I have done for years. Maybe I am being a little selfish here, as so many games are close to home now as I am a London based fan (Orient, M''Wall etc). Also I have a mate at Swindon. I am also pleased that we may have some youngsters coming through, and hopefully not to many loanees in the team. Therefore I hope for better team spirit like the City of old. On top of all these factors my 2 mates are sitting with me next season, having got away from the moaners where we used to sit. On top of this I have landed a dream Job, so hey ho, just a bit perky of late. Please keep the anti-board, little Norwich stuff going, it''s a good laugh! Being in the 3rd Tier is just a tad novel, exciting, and dare I say it adversity is part of football is it not? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

More young people seem to be of the '' half full '' type than those of more advanced years but whatever our age it would be a pity if everybody took a negative view of things.I would hope we all want a successful season but I''m afraid I can''t share your enthusiasm. Bryan Gunn is not cut out to be a manager and I can''t see him turning things around. Unless we come out flying in August and maintain the momentum it''ll all turn flat pretty quickly and we''ll be looking for yet another man to try and bring back the good times.Can''t disagree that next season will be a tad novel, but exciting.........I don''t think so. True, adversity is part of football..........I just don''t like having ours all at once. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

corbs 0 Posted July 13, 2009 In response to ........''and Smith must Score''......thank you for the ''sound quite young'' comment. Maybe the new Job has brightened me up. Obviously you did not read my ''favourite goal'' seen at Carrow Road post as this gave a hint to my age (Peter Morris v QPR 1975). To be quite honest I was against Bryan getting the Job, but he now has it, so I will hope that as usual I my judgement will be wrong again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
