The only positive thing I can think of...

...is that there are still 135 points to play for.Whether this shower will actually grow some and ''play'' for them is a whole other story.Stuff here if you''re bored: [url]http://www.pinkun.com/content/columns/anotherworld.aspx[/url]

Another positive is our steward system which we should be very proud of.

And the plastic cutlery has been improved.

Instead of just a standard spork, they''ve got a special spork with a knife on one side of it. Very useful, makes easting the half time pie much easier.

So it''s not all bad.

Eating, that is obviously meant to be. Stupid non-existant ''edit'' button.

Thats true but why is it as Norwich fans we have to always think about how many games are left and how many points to play for there is,Saturdaywill never be forgotten and i''m still not sure what will happen in the coming months,will we struggle all season like that or was it a freak result and the team will get it''s act together and show us what they are really made of!?!

Can also be assured that Gunn promised on Canaries World that we won''t be beaten 7-1 again, and then qualified it with "at Carrow road" , so roll on Yeovil...

The most startling point for me about saturday was that we were trying to play football suited to the championship.Colchester anticipated this and were strong and physical- where as we gave the ball to Hoolahan and expected him to run the show. The sooner we (or Gunn and the coaching team) recognise that nicey nicey football wont do us any favours this year the better.If Gunn has realised that, then yes I would say losing the first match is worth it.

The trick in this League, if you want to call it a trick, is to be able to mix it up.  We played some nice football on Saturday going forward but I believe the team is also capable of getting stuck in as I expect we will have to do this week v Orient and Yeovil.  Play when allowed to or get stuck in if they won''t let you. 

I am confident you will sort it out.  Leicester took a while to get going last season while they "adjusted".

Tyring hard not to sound like a cock, but we do have many many games ahead of us this season.

[quote]Ah The Stowmarket Two''s other gardner.

LQ - the only positive thing as far as I am concerned is the publicity the two season tickets holders have given the club. They should not be banned or anything like that but given a season ticket for life (or would that be further punishment?).

Today at work I spoke to people who normally have no interest in football who asked why they did it. I gave them my opinion saying some of us had had all we can take, and with meetings, protests and everything else, these two have now put the club and its sorry state all over the back pages of the national press.

Quality stuff lads. We all owe you.

....is that those two fans have stood up and shown the national media what many fans think about the decline of our club. No hiding or spinning their actions away. Good on them.

And how pathetic did Gunn sound talking about the stewarding?

or if you have downloaded ie.8 recently (as I did at the turn of the year) you should have a little symbol just to the right of your address bar.  Click on that(Compatability View), it should read something like (correct issues on websites designed for older browsers).  That seemed to do the trick for me...
