    I disagree dave. We can do a small bit about the outcome, for better or worse we can; Boo, shout abuse, boycott games, stop buying club produce, protest (I liked one commenters idea, everyone turning up 5 minutes late for kickoff to generally tell the board we're sick of what we're getting served up, but we still want to support the team), not renew, stop attending.
    All of these things will not win a game, it may even help lose one, but as long as the outcome desired is to have a better side with a capable manager, then they could well get a desired outcome. we can all moan and groan, thats pretty much all we're doing on here these days, but I really don't see why anyone needs to fall out with each other? Yes we often disagree but we all love city so that all seems silly.
    The last bit you are almost probably definitely right. The first two seem like a deluded fantasy as long as we are lacking on good professional owners!

    Why don't we just turn up for the second half?

    Just like the team most of the time.

    In Madrid they wave white handkerchiefs when they no longer feel the manager is doing as well as they expect.
    Simple but effective.

    I seem to remember Villa fans, at a match at the Ostrich Oval a few years back, when there was talk of Lambert defecting, all held or waved their shoes in the air at some point? :emoticon-0112-wonde
    Anyone else recall this and becoming (even more) delusionary? <yikes>

    I remember Iraqis throwing their sandals at a Sadam Hussein statue that was torn down by a tank/crane thing with a hook and chain.

    Interesting short chat between Michael Bailey and Dan O'Hagan, who commentates on matches all over the world, but excels in Bundeliga games.
    Tell it like it is, chaps <ok>

    In truth, the interviewer probably said, "Alex, do you want to state what is blatantly obvious to most of your team's supporters"

    Well KIO and others - yesterday's article on MFW is certainly advocating that AN and the board should go - http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter...under-alex-neil-–-i-am-now-convinced-of-that/

    Yes, we all know how Delia and Michael once saved the club, but they're now suffocating it by refusing to change the manager AND having a clear out of players who are unwilling/unable to put a shift in when they come onto the pitch.

    If I was a player looking to further my career, there's NO way I'd want to play for NCFC and I think we'll struggle to recruit any players who will improve the squad significantly.any

    My bad, never been good at that kind of thing. As you probably all know.

    That's one of the reasons I don't post very much, feel a bit embarrassed by it.

    If I actually went to school when I was a kid I probably would be better at it.

    Don't worry about it, buddy.
    Your input is more important than anyone's grammar.
    Keep you a postin' bor! <ok>
