    I´m glad to see that despite all your sales
    Of boss and players, you´re still on the rails,
    I must admit with your letting of blood
    This summer, I feared you´d hit storms and gales

    But Mr. Koeman has surprised a few
    As have those added players to your crew,
    And it seems like business as usual
    At St. Marys, or better, is the view

    Second only to Chelsea can´t be bad
    If that was us, I know that I´d be glad,
    And something special this coming Sunday
    When you set off to meet your former lad

    I shall be watching that with interest
    Hoping, the day before, we´ve passed our test,
    For so far so good, in the league below
    We´ve managed to keep up there with the best

    Though there´s a long way for us both to go
    Before we might have anything to show,
    A good start is much better than a poor
    And high up is much safer than below

    And on a slightly side note, we´re well pleased
    With Mr. Hooiveld, and the chance he seized,
    He clicked in with the others straight away
    And through his matches so far, he has breezed

    As always, I´ll keep one eye on the Saint
    While hoping our Canary doesn´t faint,
    Certainly if things can progress as now
    Neither will have much reason for complaint.

    all the best, rbf :)

    I'm adding that to my scattered RBF collection. Cheers.

    You'll be back with us next season RBF, I'm glad that Jos is well liked there, he is a top lad.
    I've always liked Norwich, it's a proper football Club, like us.

    Well we certainly all hope so, didn´t cover ourselves with too much glory last night though, but what can you do, when the other side won´t come out of their own half, and then have one deflected shot that trickles in <grr>

    and TheSecondStain - you´re welcome!

    See you next season if all goes okay ,
    You'd probably give us a game,
    Big Jos lis a legend down here to this day,
    If you miss out, he won't be to blame.

    Please tell me it wasn't deflected off of Jos - he really does get all the luck...!
    Great championship player though - hope he gets another chance at stepping up to PL with you lot.
