Matt Murray ex Wolves on Gillette Soccer Monday

[Jersey Canary 180]

His prediction for today was not only a Spurs win but (I can''t remember his exact phrase) but he said we would lose by several goals!

What a c*ck!

What a c*ck![/quote]Jesus... Can we please stop taking every single negative comment from a pundit so damn seriously. It was his opinion - An opinion that you would not have got huge odds for.Perhaps we should start posting every single positive comment about us, or every time we are tipped to win and go on to lose.

Well said Mr Trentwe are fast becoming everything we mocked (and disliked) about other fanshe made a reasoned prediction, based on how things stood before the gamesome of this zealotry and persecution mania is becoming a bit embarrassing......... and sets us up for a big fall when they do get it right

City fans haven''t always been this over-sensitive,have we??

[/quote]Exactly this. I was away all weekend - But catching up with the MOTD threads from saturday night made me seriously cringe - You would think we were West Ham or Leeds fans.Infact if I didnt know any better I would guess there were a bunch of our fans sat in the Gunn club with the lights off, wearing tin hats, waiting patiently for the next mildly negative comment to come through.Apologies for my frankness OP, this post is very much aimed at all the threads that have been whinging about the media, not just this one.

Fair play as he has seen the error of his ways.

[spudgfsh 0]

He didn''t get away with it on SSN. The other panellists reminded him of his prediction of a considerable spurs win.

TBH he had an opinion based on his knowledge of Spurs and his lack of knowledge about Norwich.

It was his opinion

He was entitled to it

He was wrong

nuff said.

Error of his ways?

 

He just made a prediction?

How can you get upset at someone predicting Spurs to beat Norwich?

Fans are very strange, we''ve had people on here getting upset when people suggest we should beat Wigan or Wolves with out too much trouble. And others who get upset when someone says were going to lose to a better team.

All that matters, is we played brilliantly and won.

I hung around on the board today thinking it would be nice to see some positive chat re our team and how we turned over a top 6 team away from home.

 

Lesson learnt!

[Jersey Canary 180]

Who''s upset? I''m not. I would have been happy with a draw prior to the game.

He had his opinion which I shared with you and I had mine. End of.

There''s no right or wrong with opinions. I just pointed out his extreme viewpoint.

[Branston Pickle 4,150]

Daft thing is that if you looked at the score prediction thread, plenty of our supporters were going for a spuds win, several went for 3-1 which fits the prediction mentioned above: why should a pundit be any different?!

I''ve occasionally been miffed at the coverage we''ve had at times, as I''m sure we all have - but some of this ''the media is anti Norwich'' stuff is now bordering on paranoia and making us look like fools.

I don''t mind a pundit having a different opinion that is against us as long as they give a reason for it and back it up. But when a pundit like lawro says Holt will not go to the euros. But his answer is just no, no ,no that is so disrespectful to holty himself and us as a club. If he said Holt will not / should not because ... x y and z then that''s fine.

[Branston Pickle 4,150]

Don''t disagree with that,, if pundits just slated us for no reason, but I''ve not seen anyone do that - what was actually said re: Holt and England was that he''d had a good season but no, he''d not be picked....again, that isn''t so different to what people on here have said.

On Saturday I was more intrigued by the look of things, that lawro seemed to have been primed to mention Norwich fans having been ''moaning'', straight after Lineker having a dig.

Still, the coverage on MOTD tonight couldn''t really have been any better in terms of bigging us, so presumably everyone will be happy!

...oops, don''t know what that emoticons is doing there - stupid iPad!

"

[Aggy 944]

I''ve always hated fans who think their club is bigger than it is, and now we''re moaning because a pundit has predicted that a side in the champions league places might beat us by a couple of goals?

I assume by that reckoning you expect us to beat every team outside of the top two, and will be unhappy if we don''t thrash Liverpool and Arsenal in a couple of weeks?

Glad to see a few more rational posters on here tonight than there were on Saturday though. Obviously we''re not all quite like Leeds and Forest fans just yet!
