    Elsewhere, away from the chock-a-block trophy, I see two Norwich old boys have shacked up together :emoticon-0109-kiss: at Swindon Town. Lee Power is chairman and as of today Tim Sherwood has joined as director of football. They overlapped at NCFC in the very early 90s.
    Anyone got Ian Culverhouse's phone number... <laugh>

    ‘It is up to players to deliver the results to make supporters feel better,’ - Norwich City CEO Jez Moxey

    And there was me thinking it was all the fans fault for not cheering the recent dross served up to the rafters! That's what I've had drummed into me on here <doh>
    Moral of the story - don't believe all the toot you read on fans' football forums <ok>
    Decent, committed displays get fervent, passionate support in return. Just how it should be.

    Exactly!!!!
    We certainly gave the team our support during the first half against Leeds, but the players failed to deliver!!!!

    Tim is Director of Football?! I assumed he was announced as their Manager!! That's a strange one.

    I dunno if anyone has watched the "Anglian Home Improvements" sponsored interviews. Russell Martin. This answer said a lot:


    -"You turn up to training, who has the biggest smile on their face?"
    -"oh.......Not a lot of smilers in there!...Ummmmm..... Maybe Jarvis."


    ....Sounds like a lovely place to play your football. That with TalkNorwichCity's Comments that AN never praises his players, or encourages etc. You start to feel like our club might feel like having to turn up for your job, and you hate it.

    Nice idea as the (dreaded) x word looms ever closer.

    Angus Gunn and Nathan Redmond (not good enough to play for Norwich) both start in the England U21 against Italy.

    Redmond near miss, then created the goal.

    What a sh*t player, hey? Glad most fans hounded him out.

    Redmond and Gray (2 Ex-Burm wingers) look fantastic! Italy are bricking it, every time they are on the ball!

    Seems our club, style (singular) of play, or management ethos was a ball and chain round his ankle.
    He's made giant strides since leaving <doh>

    The last season in the Prem, he was left out so much, really P*ssed me off! Then 80% on here seemed to say "he's crap and lazy, sell him".

    Amazing...To want rid of a player like that.....Is totally gob-smacking, at a club like ours.

    But his transfer fee paid for Nai-use and a third of Pritchard.
    The fact that it left us fairly devoid of pace and guile out wide is academic, as long as we have a plethora of similar Wes deputies waiting for game time <ok>

    We could have paid for Pritchard without the Redmond money.

    He didn't want to be here, and didn't turn up in most games! Nobody hounded him out, he was transferred and I'm pleased he's gone!

    Well, perm any one from those four, as lacklustre Brady gets the nod week after week, despite being gash ever since the Euros ended (goal vs Wolves excepted)

    Excuse me, but thats total bollocks. Are you seriously saying that people like me on a football forum actually have some sort of say or influence on who stays or goes from the club? I've wanted Naismith out ever since he first set foot in Norwich, I've made my opinion very very clear........he's STILL here, so I guess my powers are waning!

    Didn't include Brady as I think he's doing a Redmond most weeks! <ok>
