Damn right, plea not to criticise underperformance.

Bookmarked.

Let’s hope you’re a good luck charm.

But Paddy has said definitely a 4 so here we go.

More I look I think it’s Chrisene in for Cordoba and Diallo and Fisher WBs.

Let’s hope not.

PS - similar to a lot of clubs we all having a feeling what the #ncfc way of playing is but could we put it in words? Would playing that way top being successful?

Perhaps this is all a reflection of what football has become. Money driven, technocratic, where we focus on spreadsheets and deep tactical analysis rather than gifted players and entertainment.

But ultimately and crucially, if we are successful all will be forgiven and forgotten.

Of this confusion.

It will continue to be rocky with the supporters. Nunez adds to this but the main thing is the lack of success for many seasons now. The growing theme for me is that this won’t be pretty football viewed as not the Norwich way which will be a stick to beat them with.

And that change is expensive and will mean dead time as it beds in. As a result I don’t think we will find success this season, it builds to next. This will not be acceptable to a number and flies in the face of what #ncfc have said about aims for this season. Ask Thorup about the dangers ….

The view will depend on what we do.

Blame falls on Knapper from various quarters for various reasons. Ultimately if we are not successful that is what will damn him. But at this midway point my opinion on his biggest failing is no clear template. Thor up to Manning is a huge stylistic change…

Football of last season. That takes time and a turnover of players. It means that players like Nunez don’t fit as he is neither the physical presence, hard worker, organised or dependable type of player for the template.

If he is a success it will be hard to take, but anything less that that…

Boo. This season just keeps getting better.

I was also struck that Vance is as much as a Kremlin asset as Trump.
