Most frustrating, annoying and simply ****ing bone-headed legacy any manager ever left us stuck with.
Thanks very effing much, AN <grr>
He has had 2 great games in the last few seasons.
1. Hat trick against Chelsea

2. Debut (loss) against the Scousers

There is clearly a competent player in there somewhere but if you can't even make the Jock 11 then you are doing something wrong.

How much do you think Tom gets €10k week ?
 
Just seen that NCFC are doing a 'beam back' for the match against Boro next Tue.. Tickets are £5 to include a pie and a drink of your choice.
 
Interview with AN here with some 'insight' into his time at NCFC

Not sure what to read into this quote (is it a snipe at some of the players he had to manage, who were not much younger than him?): “I think age is a big thing,” Neil adds. “A lot of the Norwich players had made their money, and there’s a big difference from younger players trying to find their way.”

And who exactly insisted, and spent a bloody fortune we didn't have, on bringing an ageing warhorse Naismith to the club? Who has delivered precisely boogie all apart from day 1 - and still tugs circa £40k a week out of the club?? <grr>
 
I watched the Game away at Ipswich on a beam back. One of our friends was an Ipswich fan. We won 5-1 I think. Fantastic value!
I was there for that game as well and as it wasn't a 'live' game, they were selling 330ml bottles of Carling at £3 each - they ran out!!! <cheers>

This is slightly different FML, as they had a massive screen in front of the Jarrold (South) stand - this (and any others they do) are in various lounges.
 
"It's not the way I wanted to leave"

Then Why did you behave like an embarrassing, petulant baby?! Seems like you left exactly how you wanted!! Pleb.

Good riddance.
Now can ****ing Sanchez and his £400k demands do one next. Sick of hearing about these mercenaries ruining our game.

Turning up for training in £250,000 'Rollers' - Jesus wept!

So FIFA have 'climbed down' over the home nations re the wearing of poppies on armbands. <ok>
Edit - So the Blades beat the Owls 4-2 with Gary Hooper getting a goal for the Owls.
