    So, with all the talk about possible new signings being chased - Bennet/Austin/...Ameobi:emoticon-0110-tongu - are we all happy with the possibility of cash being flashed?

    Don't get me wrong, it's an exciting, heady time and all that. But we're near the top and holding steady already. Trust in Lambert and the board, of course, but would 2-4mil come close enough to guarantee a top two finish and the justify the outlay?
    A little while back it was all about reducing the debt as part of a seven-year plan. And we all seemed happy with that.

    So, cautious and frugal or risky business?
    Any thoughts out there in NOT606Norwich land?

    I'd like to think we wouldn't take that risk...

    Nope.
    And I'm crushed that I'm not famous.
    Got anything useful to add?

    We could spend, but then if we don't win promotion, we're stuffed for next season, and some of our squad really seem to be peaking at the moment. Lets thrash Palace and that should give us the momentum to keep our run going with some trickier games coming up.

    Best scenario really is some desperate Premiership side like West Ham, Villa or Fulham make Taraabt an offer he can't refuse, and we can watch QPR slide down the table. If Boothroyd can get injured again, Cardiff will struggle too.

    What do you think about the sacking of Peter Grant, do you think he was given enough of a chance?
