    I understand not playing there this week , very wet + city v forest - bears v bath - city ladies Sunday wouldn’t be happy with all that going on my lawn over a weekend 

    At home to Burnley in the 5th round, so perhaps that will be played at AG.

    Out of interest what do you think Fleming and Euell were doing?

    I honestly don’t buy “we are now being coached” stuff.

    Coached to play a bit differently?  Yes.  But that’s very different isn’t it?

     

    “ He’s been a breath of fresh air since he came in”.  Direct quote from Rob Atkinson on RTV today when asked about the arrival of Manning, which I found quite interesting.  Not sure he meant as a criticism of Nige and his team, but that’s how it came across.

    Norwich are 2 points off the play offs in the Championship, the prize of winning tonight’s game is a trip to a ground they already visit every few years where they normally get beat.

    I think anyone expecting Norwich to bust a gut tonight in an effort to clog up their own fixture list after they’ve got themselves back into Championship PO contention is going to be very disappointed.

    This has got ‘upset’ written all over it, if Rovers don’t go through I’ll eat my own nuts.

     

    Impeccable logic Pete, but never underestimate their ability to find a way to cock it up.

    Cant recall,did they have 2 red card offences on another day ignored and did we have a man sent off?

    Seriously, acting holier than though and purporting to speak for the whole fanbase is a silly look.

    Were their comments above "belittling" anyway?

    That is the absolute best they can play, and even then it needed a gift of a goal to win it. We had more than enough chances to bury them across both matches, we just didn't take our chances.

    **** the cheeky Cocknernee chappies but if we ended up in 2 games v Blackpool and it mirrors ours v WHU with similar outcomes our forum will be full of such comments 

    Football fans innit 😁

    Disagree.  When things go wrong we blame ourselves, or more specifically the club hierarchy.  Did we belittle Shrewsbury a few years ago when they knocked us out of the club?

    Lots of of financial disciplinary action to be taken in the Prem yet. Everton, Forest, Man C, Chelsea, maybe more.

    I've no idea what will happen and would guess Burnley don't have much more idea either.

    Exactly.   Nobody does.  So why get upset because the loan doesn’t include a buy clause?  Could be a good thing, could be a bad thing, only time will tell.

    I still think this is good business, the only thing that annoys me a little is that Burnley seem almost guaranteed to come down. 
     

    If Twine performs they way we are hoping him to I just can’t see a world in which Burnely would let him go! 
     

    Either way whether it’s short or long hope his city career starts with a bang, haven’t seen us scored a free kick in donkeys years so fingers

    Christ, I log on here expecting to see excitement but a load of you are moany old bastards when you want to be (sorry).

    It's not the perfect deal or whatever, no, but can we just allow ourselves a little enjoyment sometimes?

    I'm excited so screw the lot of you:

    1. We keep talking about how Manning wants to implement his system more effectively. Well here is a player he knows, who clearly works in his system and will implement and elevate his ideas, and that can only help him and therefor the team out there.

    2. Having quality players around will improve our other players - Tommy will hopefully get more chances, score more, learn more, and increase his confidence. There will be better interplay for players like Sykes and Mehmeti. Dickie and Vyner will get more chances from set pieces... This can only be a good thing even if it is temporary.

    3. I watch every home game at AG. I watch every away game on Robins TV. It has, for the most part, been bloody PAINFUL watching this team for a large portion of a fair few years now. If we now have one more young, skilful, exciting player to watch then thank god for that, even if it is only for
