The Pink un board is just a load of bored office workers spending all day fabricating

rumour and bulls**t stories. They are also obsessed with who had what for lunch , various humourless XI teams and the use of the term POI.

Keep it real and stay WOTB. - that's my motto.

Rumour on Oink'Un board (take 2) (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 26, 12:24:45
- The Pink un board is just a load of bored office workers spending all day fabricating (NCFC) - Snakey, May 26, 12:38:00
- I'm no great follower of football other than us, but Hodgson wasn't exactly deemed top (NCFC) - megson, May 26, 12:31:51
  - You cannot be serious. (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 26, 12:34:39

    - How did i think he ended up managing Inter? As i sort of said, i had no idea he had. (NCFC) - megson, May 26, 12:39:44
      - I'm nigh on certain it'd have gone down very well with most fans (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 26, 12:42:14
        
        Its interesting. Having now done a bit of google, it is bizarre how long he was out of (NCFC) - megson, May 26, 12:47:38
        
        are these Wikipedia dates right then? (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, May 26, 12:59:32
        
        I think that's very naive (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 26, 12:52:28
        
        We'll never know will we? I take your points, and its an interesting debate (NCFC) - megson, May 26, 13:03:28
- I heard this at the time because he's buddies with Delia. Not sure how true, or how close (NCFC) - stringersrevenge, May 26, 12:29:39
  - We clearly weren (n/m) (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 26, 12:30:28
    - We clearly weren't close to getting him if the board didn't even bother (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 26, 12:31:08
      - I haven't read this specific rumour - linky? (n/m) (NCFC) - stringersrevenge, May 26, 12:35:38
        
        ... (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 26, 12:38:48
- I'm not convinced our fans would have given Hodgson much of a chance to be honest (NCFC) - Brandonio, May 26, 12:27:42
  - You think one of the most patient, placid fanbases in all of Christendom (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 26, 12:29:53
    - Yes. So was I. :) (n/m) (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 26, 12:31:49
      - Ah I see, you just post on the pink un, clearly you don't read it!!!! (n/m) (NCFC) - stringersrevenge, May 26, 12:36:25
    - I think Brandon was talking about Norwich fans (n/m) (NCFC) - stringersrevenge, May 26, 12:30:51
      - Indeed. Patient? Good joke. (n/m) (NCFC) - megson, May 26, 12:33:09
        
        Patient is exactly what we are. (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 26, 12:36:45
        
        Nope. sorry, I can't agree with that at all. (NCFC) - megson, May 26, 12:43:45
        
        Hmm. So what should the fans have done instead? (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 26, 12:49:13
        
        No not at all, well not really. My point is the 'focus' of protest (NCFC) - megson, May 26, 13:11:50
        
        It's curious. I felt incredibly detached and even disenfranchised from this club (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 26, 13:16:32
        
        weren't we one signature away from spunking the best part of ?2m on Cotterill that summer? (n/m) (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, May 26, 13:21:41
        
        Except we didn't get him - and ND wrote an article in the EDP about how poor us (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 26, 13:29:46
        
        and unless you're suggesting that ND's article was completely made-up to say that Worthy w (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, May 26, 13:37:32
        
        I think ND's article was a pathetic litany of excuses (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 26, 13:39:59
        
        right, ok, well regardless of your personal feelings towards the man or his articles (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, May 26, 13:47:17
        
        No. What kind of club claims to have backed its manager (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 26, 13:53:50
        
        Worthy insisted on the June and July stuff didn't he? (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, May 26, 14:04:26
        
        But in that case, the Worthysaurus erred by assuming it was all down to him (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 26, 14:27:04
        
        Worthy identified the targets, and it'a hardly surprising that a failed manager would want (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, May 26, 14:37:40
        
        Define "reasonable pot" (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 26, 14:44:40
        
        ?2-3m (which possibly should've been more given 2nd year of parachute and sales but i thin (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, May 26, 15:11:46
        
        haha always a funny read (n/m) (NCFC) - Brandonio, May 26, 14:11:55
        
        For me the main reason we won't down is the players have no togetherness (NCFC) - Brandonio, May 26, 13:14:45
        
        I'm all for building the club from grassroots up (NCFC) - thebigfeller, May 26, 13:18:20
        
        *went down (n/m) (NCFC) - Brandonio, May 26, 13:14:58
- I have not heard that before however, I can confirm that that is definitely true. (n/m) (NCFC) - jafski, May 26, 12:27:00
