crabbycanary 2 Posted October 22, 2012 What a relief - for a minute there I though he was wobbling but he has pledged to stay and finish the job. Must have been all those texts of support he has received over the last couple of days Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,677 Posted October 22, 2012 It wouldn''t matter if he wasn''t staying Crabby. Their problems are a lot deeper than the manager. They wouldn''t get a "Paul Lambert" because any manager worth his salt wouldn''t touch them with a bargepole. They would just get another has been or never was journeyman who needed a top up in their bank account. They''re truly fooked and I''m enjoying every second of their demise. Has anyone seen bluemike or chavol lately? Even osborne 1-0 seems to have crawled back into the bosom of his glory hunting family. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crabbycanary 2 Posted October 22, 2012 Oh I know what you are saying Nutty, quite right. Itis not just down to Jewell as to why they are in the mess they are right now. I have just been speaking to an Ipswich fan, who says it would be the best thing for the Club, if they went down. He thinks, Evans would then pull out and the Binners (my word not his!) would be able to consolidate. He thinks they would have enough quality to get out of League 1. I didn''t have the heart to laugh at him!! They are mirroring ourselves 4 years ago, with loan signings etc, but they haven''t got what we had, have they?

morty 0 Posted October 22, 2012 I don''t know the exact figure, but I believe they are something like 66 million in debt.So even if they somehow managed to get themselves promoted (lol) then virtually every penny would end up being used to service that debt, leaving no money whatsoever to strengthen the team.It really, really is crumbling all around them.

TIL 1010 4,826 Posted October 22, 2012 I understand that the Scum AGM is this Wednesday and that they now owe Mucus Evans £73 million. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bill 1,788 Posted October 22, 2012 As said above it matters little who is the manager at poorman road - other than to allow the dimwtted rustics an excuse for their desperate plight ''hit''s the manager hinnit guv'' There should be no surprise if Til''s figure of £73m is right for what they owe (as of June 2012). What is perhaps is a surprise is how even these halfwits could not see this coming - and worse, are still deluding themselves that Marcus Evans has their welfare as his chief priority. At the moment the reality is that their season is already pretty over, with them now requiring a points total over the rest of the season that would equate to winning the title were it to be taken over the full season. However unlike the unkind comments of young master nutty I''m sure most others on here take no comfort in seeing this poor little club sinking further and further into the mire - and perhaps hope that one of their famous/celebrity fans steps forward with the £80 million odd that is needed to buy out Evans and take the club back to where it belongs mid table mediocity Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill 1,788 Posted October 23, 2012 A very, sad, sad sight A mighty club like this scrabbling around the bottom of the second tier with a team patched up with loaness and a squad cobble together out of freebies and cast offs It cannot be much fun for the 13,000 or so glum faced farmhands sat in stone silence in the acres of space that is poorman road - perhaps now realising that there is still far further to fall for their grubby little club. Deeply upsetting times for all City fans, I suspect Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill 1,788 Posted October 23, 2012 I fear the problems run far, far deeper than Jewell In fact it could be argued that he is a consequence of those troubles than ever a cause Can''t we do something to help ? A charity game, take the blanket round at halftime or a Binner in Need Fundraiser ps if only someone had told those over excited farmhands to save those tenners they were waving about at Carrow Road 5 years ago, they would only be around £73m in debt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
