norfolkchance1 0 Posted May 11, 2011 Things you''ll hear from uneducated commentators when we are in premier league that you''ll be sick of hearing by end of season.Shout Bingo if you hear them!I''ll start with:"Paul Lambert reminds us a lot of Martin O''Neill with his trousers tucked in to his socks and sweatshirt sleeves rolled up there on the touchline and also with his mannerisms" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill 1,788 Posted May 11, 2011 I think we may also see a few showings of the memorable Delia clipThe one where she appeared to have had a f''ull house'' and maybe was struggling to see the four corners (of the pitch). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nexus_Canary 1,013 Posted May 11, 2011 "Premiership new boys""Destined for a return to the Premiership""Only league one two years ago""Grant Holt, has been a tower of strength in defence over the last two seasons for Norwich" (This last one elludes to obvious bad journalism and could be any player or position) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lets be aving you! 0 Posted May 11, 2011 1. Referring to our players only in the context of how they started out at ''bigger clubs'':"Crofts, who used to share a room with John Terry". Ditto Zak Whitbread, David Fox and Elliott Ward.2. Referring to our club only in the context of bigger clubs:"And Norwich score in the 96th minute, in Manchester United time".3. Hooly defined only in terms of his size and Irishness:"Irish magician", "impish midfielder", etc. etc.4. Delia catch phrases, especially if Norwich are losing: "It''s certainly time to be having you". "Norwich certainly need a twelfth man now", etc. And generally anything to do with cooking.

blahblahblah 2 Posted May 11, 2011 I''m expecting us to be labelled as "plucky canaries". There will be many references to our Bootiful play too.And I''m sure that Alan Hansen will refer to our defence being as "keen as mustard".I can''t wait. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bill 1,788 Posted May 11, 2011 "And I''m sure that Alan Hansen "i think there should be a countdown style clock on the screen, when the camera goes to Hansen to see how long he can speak, without having to look down at his notes (script) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
