Well I expect a lot of changes in the summer. I expect a huge clearout

I expect us to either let players go, or bundle up swap deals with other clubs

I expect offers for players to be accepted as we re shape the squad

When that happens, I expect Hughton to expand on the players he brought here, to finish his own personal jigsaw. And I expect us to play well, and finish comfortably 9th or higher

I base that on the fact that we have stayed up without serious danger, with very poor returns from the players who are paid to score

There are some strange comments about our season at the bottom of the board... (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 11:45:23
- "these sort of posters" (NCFC) - trianglepatch, Apr 28, 12:23:55
  - I actually credited you for the first part, so I don't understand the hysteria there... (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 12:31:19
    - LOL (NCFC) - trianglepatch, Apr 28, 12:46:53

        To be honest (NCFC) - trianglepatch, Apr 28, 13:30:15
        
        Cheers (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 13:32:11
      - WTF? When facts contradict your opinions you're going to get pulled up on it. (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 13:00:26
- One day fans on here will put away the analysis, and simply go (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 11:54:05
  - I have to say, on this subject, there really is no (NCFC) - duke of york, Apr 28, 12:20:40
    - What conspiracy theory? (n/m) (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 12:25:45
      - I imagine the one that people just don't like Hughton (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Apr 28, 12:51:58
        
        I can actually see that coming though (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 12:56:49
        
        actually, using my example, that's exactly why I can see it (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 13:21:16
        
        You seem to think a few post on here sum up the feeling of all norwich supporters (NCFC) - RootunTootunHootun, Apr 28, 15:42:28
        
        And this is aimed at you thinking no one likes Hughton (n/m) (NCFC) - RootunTootunHootun, Apr 28, 15:44:12
        
        At whatpart of the season have we had form like that when people have moaned? (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 13:38:31
        
        Well put it this way CSP, I've already self imposed a ban (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 14:21:29
        
        Fair enough (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 14:33:37
  - The fact that you can't see any flaws within his tenure so far worries me (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 11:58:07
    - All I'll remember from this season, is the constant references month to month (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 12:02:38
      - Never believed we would go down since Wigan at home (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 12:07:28
        
        Kind of goes back to my first reply I think (n/m) (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 12:09:54
        
        Not really. Making us regress isn't good at all. (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 12:13:32
        
        I don't do that at all to be honest. I just don't like the forward situation (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 12:22:36
        
        Ha ha (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 12:26:13
        
        Well of course it can be used. You can't expect the defenders and outfield players (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 12:32:35
        
        Difficult for the strikers to score when we rarely create chances for them (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 12:37:10
        
        I appreciate how irritating this will sound, but I don't buy into the fact (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 12:41:14
        
        Yeah, you're right, that was irritating! (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 12:45:52
        
        Well I expect a lot of changes in the summer. I expect a huge clearout (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 12:49:54
        
        Interesting. What would be a disappointing season for you next season? (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 12:56:39
        
        Honestly? (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 13:00:04
        
        What points tally should we be aiming for? (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 13:02:45
        
        I haven't said it's been perfect (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 13:06:20
        
        I don't think he has been solely to blame either (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 13:11:18
        
        See, I wouldn't have trusted this team last season (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 13:16:46
        
        I love our tactics against the big teams, one of the highlights of the season (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 13:27:22
        
        It's pretty much the reason I've just about quit watching the champions league (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 13:32:11
        
        Oh, and thanks for handling the York stuff well (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 14:31:42
        
        I appreciate the honesty (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 14:35:37
        
        Well I've done it with a few things (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 14:46:38
        
        Hopefully the swing of power from la liga to the bundesliga will change thatl (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 14:58:16
    - its simply frustration at the fact away from home we're completely different set up - and (NCFC) - Cheltenham_Canary, Apr 28, 12:00:26
      - Agreed (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 12:04:21
      - "Lesser teams" - tbh mate, Stoke looked like Barcelona yesterday in comparisson to us. (NCFC) - CB41, Apr 28, 12:04:16
        
        Look at how we set up, no surprises really. (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 12:09:33
        
        So they should the money they chuck about (n/m) (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 12:06:24
        
        but we know their style (shit hoofing) and even at 1-0 down.. (NCFC) - Cheltenham_Canary, Apr 28, 12:17:46
        
        They've spent most of this season not hoofing it about. I think that's why they (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 12:27:46
        
        Stoke lost 6 of their last 10. 11 teams from 18 have left the Brit with at least a point (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 12:23:08
        
        So, to use your assumption, do you think Stoke have a load of (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 12:31:02
        
        no, we should have gone there and had a few shots on fucking goal!!! (NCFC) - Cheltenham_Canary, Apr 28, 12:45:24
        
        We had plenty of set pieces and crosses going in (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 13:01:42
        
        Not just his job, is it? (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 13:05:37
        
        He gave it the big I am all summer because of his goal tally (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 13:12:30
        
        I agree with pretty much all of this (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 13:17:58
        
        No, I just think that right now is a great time to play them (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 12:33:35
        
        They'd just won the previous game away from home (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 12:35:30
        
        They beat QPR. Are you really classing that as a momentus victory? (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 12:39:38
        
        You said it was the best time to play them. They'd just gone away from home, kept a clean (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 12:42:44
        
        They had the same result us as us, beating a shit relegation team. (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 12:49:42
        
        Now if you said Newcastle is the best time to play someone (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 12:43:35
        
        Newcastle have the exact same results as Stoke over the last ten games (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 12:48:18
        
        Forget the stats, think about the psychology of what I posted (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 12:50:43
        
        The point wasn't "there is no worse team to play" (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 12:54:48
        
        I am surprised you're refusing to see that we played a team who had just started winning (NCFC) - pants, Apr 28, 13:03:36
        
        1 game against the joint worst team in the league (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 13:08:22
        
        ^^^ reckon 99% of away fans think this when coming to Carrow Road (n/m) (NCFC) - lurd, Apr 28, 12:26:46
        
        They would be entitled to if we had just lost 6 in 10 (n/m) (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 12:28:08
- Neenaa neenaaa neenaaa (NCFC) - lurd, Apr 28, 11:47:41
  - I prefer 'the truth commision' personally (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 28, 11:50:05
