    Who will get further?
    We royally ****ed up finishing top 2 and I think our confidence is shot , Neil will have to give them a huge kick up the arse and we need a big chunk of luck to go up now.
    If you guys are in the mix how do you think you will do ?.
    Sears looks pretty handy.

    Ps. I haven't been on here much since Dave called for me to be banned for questioning his decision to give 2 of yours a short term ban then make it permanent like a Korean dictator .

    Brentford need to beat Wigan & better your gd by 3 goals.
    It would be horrific to miss out at this stage but Brentford are pretty good.
    Grind out a draw or better & you are ok.

    You know Mcarthy there's no telling what team will play or what tactics(if any) he will employ
    Three fingernail job I reckon
    But one thing I'm sure of is we won't do it the easy way

    First off SN23, its far from a foregone conclusion we are there, we have probably the hardest game this weekend, but fingers crossed we can do it.

    then, we will take whoever we get in our stride, if its you we have nothing to lose as we are massive underdogs, but its not to say we can't turn you over. I would prefer to play Middlesboro and then get derby in the final, turn them over, and then watch you lot whinge on about how a team who finished 6th has gone up instead of you and how unfair it is.

    I had faith that we would go up top 2, we choked at the final hurdle and are dissapointed to be in the play offs.
    If you or Brentford finish top 6 you will be on a high .
    Pretty sure you will make it but we went down knowing a draw at Fulham would keep us up a few years back.
    Better to be cautious.

    don't tell me, dave will use his powers bestowed to him to ban him for stating an opinion.

    nope, nothing like north Korea.

    I want to get in the play offs before I even consider this.

    I remember 08-09 Cardiff needed a point or something stupid from their last 3, we beat them 3-0 and pretty sure they lost 6-0 in there to someone else too.

    Who do you want Norwich to play out of us/ Brentford/ Derby however?

    You were banned for a set amount of time but when the duration was up you were still banned ?.
    I got a ****ty PM telling me I was being referred to the other mods for a banning after I stuck up for you.
    I deactivated PM s after that and thought about quitting.
    A thread was started on the Norwich board to try and suck me into squabbling on there so he can get his bsn hammer out again.
    All water under the bridge now but it put me off posting for a few months.

    We struggled against the other 3 so Ipswich but our secret weapon Grabban is banned until the final now.
    The play offs are a coin toss but I doubt we will go up now.

    don't worry about them mate, its plainly obvious to everyone else there is a certain group controlling things over there, and if you dare to stray from the party line you are painted as evil and banished for eternity.

    If we get there (which I think we will) it will be a great achievement and whatever happens will be a bonus....IMO.

    As much as my heart provides some good arguments for us going the whole way, I struggle to see past Middlesbrough. They seem to be the most consistent 'good form' team over the season.

    Plus, hate to be negative, but our aggregate scores for both Norwich and Boro have been defeats.

    2 things here.
    This is me wearing my supermod hat, so bear with me, before deciding to lynch me then hang, draw and quarter me!

    1. Apologies to the Town mods and posters for straying off topic here.

    2. SN23. A friendly word of advice. Wind your neck in pal until you get the full facts.

    Due to to change of software, various things came to light. One of these was bans and and removing bans.

    It took a lot of time to to realise what permissions had to be reset after a ban had been enforced.
    The 'Ipswich 2' to give them their more infamous names <laugh>, had served their ban, and it was agreed that the ban would be lifted.
    Being a supermod, I am the only one of the Norwich mods that can issue a ban and then remove the ban. The others can ask for a ban, but if the supermods decide against it, then that is it.

    Behind the scenes here, we are really trying to get this forum running smoothly.
    Yesterday, there was something like 60 spam attacks in a period of a couple of hours. You guys don't see all this.
    So please SN23, if you have a problem with someone in PM. then please keep it there.
    What you may well see as a bit of fun, can very easily cause a lot of hassle and strife. Sometimes it may even come back to give you a right royal kick up the arse.

    Now then, back on topic - <takes supermod hat off>

    Personally I am dreading the play offs.

    We could well play you guys somewhere a long the line, and our run of victories has to come to an end soon, and I fear it will be during the play offs if we meet.;


    Once again, sorry about the statement at the beginning, but I felt it had to be said.

    How bad must the ordinary mods be if you are the cream of the crop? :emoticon-0172-mooni

    So basically, what you're saying is you're the engine driver?

    sounds fair to me to have a level headed bloke who takes his job seriously like yourself at the top of the tree. <ok>

    Not at all mate. Just saying I have that little more idea of what extra crap is going on in the background.

    Course I'm level headed. Now creep some more to me and get me copious quantities of London Pride in, before I forget how level headed I am and ban you for being in possession of an offensive taste in clubs <laugh>
