Bobert 0 Posted August 15, 2010 [quote user="Salopian"]He may provide a small investment, but his greatest asset is his worldwide network of contacts. "Flying the flag" throughout the world could take time in generating useful contacts with money to invest, but this is clearly why he has been appointed. He speaks of meeting yellow and green shirted canary supporters in New York. If such groups spring up in many more countries, then we would be doing only what Manure and other clubs have done successfully for years.[/quote]Just to put this meeting in its proper perspective Stephen Fry met THREE Norwich fans at a book signing in New York. They gave him one of their "T" shirts and he had his photograph taken with them.It was at their instigation. Now I would reckon that one could turn out three Norwich fans in almost any large town or city in any country on Earth. However for me, I am pleased to have him aboard. He has been in football a long time and I have seen a photogaph of him taken with Bobby Robson ( when he was Enagland Manager) and Mr Walker''s Crisps (when he was England''s Centre Forward.)

mozzer 0 Posted August 15, 2010 How can one of the (if not ‘the’) greatest living icon’s joining our board be anything other than hugely positive? It’s not what he will personally invest - more the contacts and respect he has, worldwide, that is important. His role is that of ambassador, having a man of such immense intellect; one of the most articulate and respected speakers, with a massive influential around the globe can only raise the profile of Norwich. How this equates to “Little old Norwich” is puzzling frankly. Oh hum, some will always have the ability to find fault with everything and enjoy pissing on the parade I suppose – what they love about Norwich I don’t know – but, boy! they must be a joy to live with.

gazzathegreat 0 Posted August 15, 2010 Well said Mozzer, how anyone can view Stephen Fry''s appointment as anything other than a positive frankly amazes me.What do they want? Stagnation? The world, including football and NCFC moves on constantly. Having someone as well connected and internationally revered as Fry is can only be good for the club. Well done to everyone who made this appointment happen. In just over a year this club has moved on in leaps and bounds. Remember where we were last year those of you who can only snipe bitter words? Reeling from the months of mis management, to say nothing of that game with Colchester. Since then NCFC have moved into a new and more proactive era, on and off the pitch.Stephen Fry''s connection with NCFC can only be to the good and his role as ambassador will boost our standing in football immensely.

Lurd 0 Posted August 15, 2010 It''s plainly obvious that idiots like the Wizard and Cluck and are the true holders of the ''Little Old Norwich'' crown. Lets look at the facts:Dubious of any investment rumours.Proven to be xenophobic and racist, so will almost certainly disagree with any foreign takeover especially if any Oriental folk are involved.Known homophobes and misogynists, which thus eliminates at least 60% of any possible investor from the outcome.Quoted in the past that potential investors and managers must understand the ''Norfolk way'', especially fearful of any folk from our nations great capital.

Mello Yello 2,289 Posted August 15, 2010 I wonder how many of those pleased with Stephen''s appointment as a NCFC Director - will be showing their loyalty and gratitude by attending on the 16th of September at Carra...''An evening with Stephen Fry'' which includes a 3 course meal and a question and answer session? It''s only £75 per person....Come on, dig deep....Apparently, all the £95 VIP tickets have unfortunately all been sold......Anyone on here attending?........Anyone?

But if the last few years have taught us anything it is to take our heads out of the sand and look very closely at superficially fantastic football takeovers. And the one at Leicester doesn''t so far even look that fantastic. All that has happened is that a Thai businessman has bought a controlling interest from Mandaric, putting money into Mandaric''s pocket rather than the club. Estimates of this Thai businessman''s wealth seem thin on the ground, although supposedly his father is the real moneybags and he is worth a passable but not eye-watering £113m. And none of Leicester''s £26m debt is being paid off. And there have been the usual vague comments on investment but not one hard and fast promise.It MIGHT be a good deal (as Southampton''s effectively forced takeover seems to have been) but if so it will be very much in a recent minority. The number of clubs taken over in the last couple of years is well outweighed by those still on the market. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
