A man who absolutely no right to be in his current position. I fear for where this club is heading I really do. 

I honestly think Norwich are one of the poorer teams to reach the play offs in recent times. 
 

A real bang average team which should give teams like us hope going into next season. 

Behaviours ……..

Any idea where I can find this if I knew someone who happened to have a fire stick?

Just saw!

It is a little disingenuous to say “Man who developed player into £25m asset and wasn’t given funds to replace him was hurt less by his departure than his successor, who had a replacement funded” - particularly when you saw the germs of the plan that pre season!

Replace disingenuous with absolute bullshit.

It would be quite interesting to see Brian Tinnions managerial stats here - which were generally regarded as a disaster - compared to Nigel Pearsons.

Of course, they both managed us in different divisions, but then our squad would have been equivalently different.

I don't know how they'd actually stack up as Tinnions stats don't seem to be easily found - but I know for a fact that Pearsons were underwhelming.

EDIT - also, on topic, has he not just tweeted a couple of factual references to the season just gone..?

Academy players coming through - true.

Finished higher than we have for several years - true.

Progress..? Questionable I suppose - but factually correct. Of course he's going to look at the positive slant in his assements. 

Next season, with a summer window & pre-season under his belt, is the only fair way to judge LM.

Personally I think he has done OK generally. Certainly alot of work to do & improvements to be made - but there were also some encouraging signs aswell.

Next season will be interesting.!

Comparing Tinnion and Pearson as managers. Yep I was right. You haven’t got a clue. 
 

One a failed manager and a player who spent most of his career in league one compared to one with promotions and who played a part in a team winning the Premier League. 
 

Un*******believable. 
 

Oh it took all of two seconds to find out how much of a failure he was. If memory wasn’t enough. 

That’s how you keep the momentum after getting promoted from League One. Unfortunately we have Lansdown at the helm who royally ****** up our chance to push on. 

Let’s be honest that was pathetic by Conway. To think all the ones we didn’t get during that run and we get that

Absolutely gutting. Football can be sooo cruel. 

I thought in real time he was off so didn’t get carried away when it went. What a moment to just be taken away. The thought of getting to the premier league and dealing with that gets less appealing by the week.

I’m sure I read a story that they were taking 7,000.

Is that right ?

BBC says so. Can’t beat being part of a massive support like that.  

That’s how you finish Sykes. 

Great finish and great scenes amongst that amazing travelling support.

Do you mean Atkinson or Naismith?

Naismith

Atkinson?

Who knows how he is going to return. Robert’s has the shirt for now that’s for sure. 
 

@Mr Popodopolous For some reason I’ve got it in my head we won’t see him again. 

Got forward to good effect too. I do wonder if Manning will persist with a back three next season with Vyner, Dickie and Roberts.

Exactly what I was saying about performances over results at the moment. I’d rather see that today than a repeat off last week and winning 1-0. Encouraging.

Twice we should have beat them this season. Been awful in both games. Another example of not having to be world beaters to trouble the top 6. 
 

Good performance but poor in front of goal.

The standard of officiating is beyond a joke.

Any reason their new shiny stand is empty this evening? 

I thought there were a couple of times where we were dispossessed in own half and luckily got a free kick from minimal if any contact.

Is this really how pathetically reactionary we are going to be now? One disappointing draw after a decent run of form and a 5-0 win in midweek?

I was Manning out when we on an extended poor run. But our form has been much improved over the past few weeks. We are a mid-table squad doing mid-table things. Will we win games we don’t expect to and lose some we expect to win. Our league position is about par for the squad.

We can’t constantly keep changing manager without really strong justification. Right now I don’t think that strong justification is there, and Manning needs time - and the summer - to see what he can really do.

You’ve said reactionary? Perhaps he’s had that opinion for a while and three positive results may not have changed his mind. So in fact you have “ reacted “ after three decent performances. 
 

For the record I don’t care enough either way. Do I think he is good enough? No. Do I think his football is any good? No. 
Do I think the idiots above are more of a problem? Absolutely.
