Norwich City vs Oxford Utd (Away) Saturday 10th August.

[morty]

Not a clue on the starting lineup, but probably not too far from who started in the last friendly against St Pauli, which went so well...

Used this as my match pick, so will be going along. Only possible changes to lineup could be Cordoba in at CB and the new lad Doyle involved somehow. I'm going for an optimistic first away win of the season.

The third kit is released this evening. A fair chance we may wear it tomorrow as Oxford's kit actually clashes with both our home and away!

 

[morty]

Hmmmmm

We are so lucky having a superb player like Hanley. Flicking to Rom football qccasionly, I know which one is better

 

[Nigellee33]

Good Luck, Thorup. You're going to need it with this fan base. League one season tickets on sale from Christmas. Lolol

 

[gerryinromania]

Well Mr Thorup, that really won't do. How on earth did he manage to pick that team?. At least he made changes to try to get things going. Some of the old brigade should feel ashamed. Forson was someone that tried, and for me,was the top Canary. We have wantaway players refusing to play, yet happily acceptin the pennies, we've got two new players, already injured, that bodes well. Just hoping that Thorup was maki8ng a point with his selection. Very hard to give more than three players marks above 4

 

[morty]

Just home, my God, that was just dreadful.

Where do you even start with that? Hanley and Ward, awful. Hanley's crude attempt to win a free kick gave them the first goal. Ward made mistake after mistake, Gunn looked a nervous wreck stood behind those two! The new lad Doyle from Man City looked tidy enough, and quite a unit, he can play CB too, so watch this space. Nothing ticked in the midfield, so consequently nothing much happened up front either. Idah actually looked okay when he came on, but Forson was the pick of the bunch today, looks like he enjoys carrying the ball and trying to make things happen. We'll soon knock that out of him and have him passing back to the keeper in no time!

Jonny Rowe. Jonny f**king Rowe. You weasly little shit. To train all week then do that on the morning of a game, well sorry, there is no excuse for that. On the back of one bid from Marseille, that hasn't even come close to meeting our valuation. Honestly, a very poor decision from him because there is still plenty chance he will go nowhere. The crowd chanted "f**k Jonny Rowe" at the beginning of the game, and rightly so.

Big changes needed for Saturday, Thorup has the cup game to help him decide. I hope Cordoba is fit soon...

Ward?

 

[morty]

Ward?

Sorry Duffy, no idea where Ward came from

Wasels aren't too bad Morty. I would call him a skunk, they certainly stink the place out..Seems to hav a high opinion of himself after a handful of games, wonder how far that will take him. Can't see the fans welcoming him back. All that rough water last week, just so that you could come back and see that rubbish

He needs to come out and explain himself, or the bridge is burnt. Like I say, all on an offer that we won't accept anyway.

I mean either he knows he's going (and knows more than we do) or he's going to look a bit silly.

But we're in a bit of a sh!t state and can't afford to burn our bridges with him - should a move not materialise. So I think the club may play this one very carefully in terms of how they spin it publicly.

Marseille haven't even come close to our value. And with the extra year triggered on his contract he has 2 years left. I suggest a statement where he apologises to the fans and his team mates, citing the fact that his head wasn't right, and he didn't want to let us all down by not being able to give 100%.

They need to damage limit this, and like you say, we can't afford to sit him on the naughty step.

As I have said time, and time again. Too much money in football. These players are paid too much money to produce so little. Imagine getting paid an average of £25, 000.00 a week (Kenny McClean) to produce that shite. Some of us are not on that a year. Yet, we turn out week in, week out to watch this shite. Obviously, the problem is not the manager. Tired of this team. We are screwed if Sargent leaves. Definitely, league one. The board are to blame. What are they doing with the money. Let the manager manage. They never have.

 

[Nigellee33]

I hope the potential clubs lining up to buy Johnny Rowe are paying attention to the way he treats an employer who goes out of its way to support and nuture his career, only to stab them in the back. His actions speak volumes about his character. Their is no loyalty in football anymore. Just greed and stardom. Maybe he'll go to Ipswich. Now, that would be the ultimate snake in the face. Lol!!
