    No idea, but with the money ha has spent, and in his own words, players that have improved the squad, then we should be improving. Unless, he was mistaken in his signings, but I don't think that is the case.
    My view is that with all the money at stake in the game nowadays, certain teams are just scared to lose in case they go down and can't get back up again. Somehow, the manager has to get that idea out of their minds and be able to change the game if it is not going the way they hope.

    Look at our cup replay against Fulham. The first 5 minutes or so, we looked really up for it and maybe could have been ahead, but as soon as they scored, through a defensive mistake, then you saw our heads go down. That is when the manager has to earn his money and pick the players up, or change the game plan.

    I'm sorry, but I've read the posts on the Norwich board, and the posts of others. You guys think you're something special, you think Chris has a team (which has been put together on a relative shoe-string, still) which is something special. I'm going to be quite frank, it isn't. You compare your squad with every other mid-table squad, and see how many of your players would make theirs. I'd say 1/2 max.

    The posts on the Norwich board are, quite honestly, embarrassing when it comes to reasons justifying support for his exit. Take out the name Norwich and Chris Hughton from your post above, and replace it with any other club and manager who have had a difficult spell, and you'd realise how boring, generic and bulls*** it really is. Paul Lambert wasn't a messiah, he had a crappy defence because the guy has no idea how to organise one. Chris comes in, turns the players into a solid outfit, and you all roll about crying that he's not Paul Lambert.

    If you had any appreciation, or done any research whatsoever on Chris Hughton sides, you realise that's what he's about. Creating a stable base to push on from. It seems obvious you guys have very little knowledge beyond the world of the Norwich-bubble if you can't understand that and give him time. Thankfully your board has more patience and backbone. Still, what do I care? He's going to get sacked, because of you guys, but he'll get another championship job, do well with exactly the same formula, meanwhile you lot are falling on your arses and blaming the new guy <ok>

    Ok. I get the idea. You love CH and want his babies.
    You stick to your ideas of a few years ago when he was your boss, and we'll stick to our idea while watching him and the team now <cheers>

    I would love to know what makes you think/say that.

    Our defence is leaking goals for fun? Hardly the basis of a solid outfit or stable base, which is a concern as CH clearly stated that he was going to strengthen the defence last summer. Whatever he has done, has had the very opposite effect.

    Spurs were very good. Adebayor was excellent. Quinny went a bit overboard (what a boring twat of a pundit), I thought he was gonna make his way to the pitch and enter him.

    Swansea struggling. This Europa lark defo seems to hurt teams <whistle>

    Laudrup looks as beleaguered as Pards did, where are all his fan boys now? (I still reckon he is a good manager)

    To be fair, most of the goals you conceded this year were from one away game.... Against a team who just so happen to be scoring an average of 5 a game at home... We got stuffed there too. In fact, the only way you've been conceding for fun is against all the big teams (I suppose you'd blame Hughton for not motivating them enough, or his tactics, rather than the pathetically weak minds of players. I actually physically saw their heads drop at 2-0 vs Man City... What manager has got a hope in hell when the team just give up?). Every other game has been nicked by a goal either way.

    Every single member of the bottom 10 has a negative goal difference.

    But no, go on, get him sacked. I guarantee you, it'll be the worst mistake you ever make.
