My late father (2008) told me all about the last time when Norwich were in the old second division and however the fans were more together it was a torrid time which i'm sure us fans of today don't want to see, so please lets do the right thing and solve this most horrible position we are in!

Things have gone incredibly stale and the only way we will reverse our slide in the long-term is some sort of change at the top. It's too late to stop us probably falling into League One but things are only going to get steadily worse if nothing changes in how the club is run.

Spin, lies and deceit. Taking the football club to its lowest league position in 50 years. Enough said. Time to walk out or be forced out for the good of this once great football club

Oh dear what a right mess this club of ours is in and the blame lies squarely with smith&jones and all the idiots on the board. Are any of you so surprised that the callamatous way our club has been run for the last 14 years has resulted in our disasterous situation. Let me explain myself I am a londoner who has lived in Norwich since 1991 and have been a season ticket holder since then, the reason Isay this is because not being local I have a rather clinical view on what to do and how to achieve what we all want so if you like I have a different mindset to a local supporter. This situation would never have festered on if we were a London club it would have been sorted years ago because of the higher profile press and tv coverage that they get. The situation is we are probably 95% certain to be relegated and that is something I just cant stomach. What is needed now are mass demonstrations at the home games when I say mass I mean the majority of supporters which should be in excess of 10000 fans. But will we see action on the terraces or outside the ground I have my doubts because it seems a substantial amount of fans still worship the Chef which is what she is as she has proved time & time again that she and the board just do not know how to run a business let alone a football club. This club is going down the toilet fast. Put yourself in Peter Cullums shoes he is an astute businessman who would be interested in buying our club but not for the Chefs valuation. What would force the price of the club to fall well how about relegation to league 1 but that will probably happen anyway. The other way can only be to make delia and the board feel so uncomfortable that they will bite Peter Cullums hand off. I believe he is still interested in our club but he is waiting for the right time to strike unfortunately thats not yet. After all delia did exactly the same thing when she bought the club from Mr Watling. The time has come to act as a unit and let the club know howwe feel. Can you imagine the negative publicity theChef would get if we turned against them they would have nowhere to hide they would either come out fighting or crawl under the rocks they have been hiding under for god knows how long. While this current regime remains in place there is no chance this club will progress on the field. If the fans want regime change badly enough then it will happen sooner or later.

Whilst we do have to realise that these are extremely harsh times to find investment, we have to try. The investment into playing staff at our once great club over the past decade has been laughable and it is clear that the current board have no idea or long term plan to move us forwards. I cannot imagine us sinking like Bradford or Swindon but it looks like this is a very real possibility.
Please someone, somewhere sort this mess out.

In the last few years we have received some £8m from land sales and hotel venture, £34m from sky, £20m in player sales, £1.5m Watling loan written off, 20k season tickets- the envy of the league, and what exactly have we got to show for it? A crap squad assembled for a pittance and a club everyone knows is going only one way. No more excuses, the buck stops at the top. Time to GO.

I generally agree with this motion – I don't think the current board members NECESSARILY need to step aside, but I feel it is absolutely imperative that the current board revise their valuation of the club to attract fresh investment. I fear it is already too late after we refused to play ball with a billionaire Norwich City fan who wished to invest in the club.

Time to go, you should do the decent thing, you took too long to sack Worthy, too long to sack Roeder and have now made another bad decision in making B Gunn manager when we needed experience. Gunny doesnt deserve this.

Thankyou for ruining my beloved football team. NCFC has always been a big part of my life but this is the first time I haven't felt proud of my club. The lowest point in 20 years of support home and away. Thanks again.
Get out now!!!!!

The board must take the blame for our current position . I cant belive Gunny was given the job on the strengh of one win and to date his only win. It beggers belief ;

The club has been in decline, since we won the championship with no real investment made in the playing staff has only served to put the club in the position it is in now. Also it has shown the true vision that this board of directors have for the football side of Norwich City plc. It comes in a poor 3rd to the many other more important initicitives the board are concerned in. Andrew Cullen and Shaun O Hara, felt their hands were tied by the constant support Doncaster recieves from the board, even when trying to voice their concerns.
Football has changed in the time the board have been in control, and they haven't changed with it.

It's time for a big chane in the ethos of the club...without it we are heading for League Two as well!

Change is needed.
They have got it wrong so many times. Rioch, Hamilton, Walker (p2), Grant and Rioch.

I have been supporting this club since the mid 60's, never in all these years have I known it to be so bad. Thanks

It's gone on long enough now. In 5 years we've seen our front line reduced; Ashton - Earnshaw - Cureton. All because not enough money was re-invested into the squad.

Thanks for the rescue invlovement, but your time has come. Any good you might have done for this club has been undone and then some. Overall has to be the worst board in charge of any football club.
