        not neccessarily...... (NCFC) - Cheltenham_Canary, Nov 25, 13:41:01

    - thats your opinion. (NCFC) - Cheltenham_Canary, Nov 25, 13:37:31

        ? (NCFC) - Cheltenham_Canary, Nov 25, 15:02:40
        
        It's just all fucking ridiculous (n/m) (NCFC) - duke of york, Nov 25, 15:23:28
- decision should not be made (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Nov 25, 13:01:18
- Oh look, it's West Ham all over again, how refreshing (n/m) (NCFC) - pants, Nov 25, 12:38:48
  - Oh look its a Sunday afternoon (NCFC) - ghostof barry butler, Nov 25, 14:05:18
  - but it is going to be this way, if we beat Palace and then get stuffed at Liverpool it (NCFC) - lovely old job, Nov 25, 12:41:53
    - which is absolutely ridiculous of course (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 25, 12:42:59
      - what beating Crystal Palace is unrealistic expectation, if it is we really (NCFC) - lovely old job, Nov 25, 12:44:31
        
        Beating Palace isn't unrealistic, but heaping pressure on our manager after a narrow loss (NCFC) - pants, Nov 25, 12:49:39
        
        Pants I presume you like Hughton as a manager, I was just wondering (NCFC) - lovely old job, Nov 25, 12:59:45
        
        I think long term he brings total stability and quality. Where people see no fight (NCFC) - pants, Nov 25, 13:05:20
        
        I crave long term stability, I just don't think it happens to often these days. (n/m) (NCFC) - lovely old job, Nov 25, 13:21:21
        
        It should at a club like Norwich, and how we ended up in League One should be remembered (NCFC) - pants, Nov 25, 13:45:25
        
        That is true. But, we not playing anywhere near as well as the squad suggests on paper. (n/m) (NCFC) - Pit, Nov 25, 14:06:15
        
        what knee jerk reactions sent us to league one? (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 25, 14:10:55
        
        you know the answer (NCFC) - ghostof barry butler, Nov 25, 14:14:19
        
        Drunk on a Monday lunchtime already? (NCFC) - pants, Nov 25, 14:20:04
        
        haha (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 25, 14:16:37
        
        How did our league position change in signing Earnshaw (NCFC) - pants, Nov 25, 14:19:11
        
        I agree with Pants. Yes, we are pretty crap at the moment (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Nov 25, 14:35:43
        
        not sure how you can have long term ability with a shit manager lol (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 25, 14:38:24
        
        "shit" is objective (n/m) (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Nov 25, 14:40:14
        
        cue a load of pointless stats to back up a pointless remark (n/m) (NCFC) - pants, Nov 25, 14:43:01
        
        subjective obviously (n/m) (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Nov 25, 14:41:10
        
        stability (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 25, 14:38:46
        
        Buying Robert Earnshaw for 3.5m when we had one of the worst midfields and a crap defence (n/m) (NCFC) - pants, Nov 25, 14:13:16
        
        this has all been debated several times, but here are a few reasons (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 25, 13:04:00
        
        we hardly outplayed Stoke West Ham, or Southampton. (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 25, 13:05:31
        
        defo didn't outplay saints! (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 25, 13:09:01
        
        First half against West Ham was dreadful (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 25, 13:10:06
        
        yep the worst first half at home i've ever seen (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 25, 13:10:50
        
        pants moans at everyone for doing (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 25, 13:00:50
        
        cock (n/m) (NCFC) - pants, Nov 25, 13:07:16
        
        Pressure has been built by not beating Cardiff or Villa or Hull, if (NCFC) - lovely old job, Nov 25, 12:54:57
        
        Exactly, i'm afraid that (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 25, 13:06:44
        
        vmt (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 25, 13:09:52
        
        but you are assuming here that our away record can't and won't improve (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 25, 13:09:28
        
        It won't unless we change our tactics and formation - see my review of Sat below! (n/m) (NCFC) - Kirrie, Nov 25, 13:40:20
        
        agreed.. but i think we are changing.. albeit slowly (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 25, 13:43:35
        
        I'm assuming that because this season we have already (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 25, 13:12:56
        
        We do keep the ball OK at times, BUT (NCFC) - duke of york, Nov 25, 13:12:49
        
        yep no creativity whatsoever (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 25, 13:15:14
        
        it reminds me of Southampton at the end of last season (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 25, 13:15:04
        
        Their whole game plan is based on pressing the opposition (NCFC) - duke of york, Nov 25, 13:16:35
        
        Spot on Dukey, was the same on Sat; didn't press when we didn't have the ball..... (NCFC) - Kirrie, Nov 25, 13:44:29
        
        that's something we definitely need to be better at (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 25, 13:20:03
        
        Are you sure you are watching tha same team as most of the rest of us! (n/m) (NCFC) - Kirrie, Nov 25, 13:45:47
        
        I guess people see things differently (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 25, 13:48:43
        
        We aren't doing anything well enough to win away games..... (NCFC) - Kirrie, Nov 25, 13:51:22
        
        what exactly are we doing well? (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 25, 13:49:29
        
        we've been through this already (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 25, 13:50:32
        
        losing away from home? (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 25, 13:53:51
        
        VMT (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 25, 13:47:06
        
        what games are you watching... we sit back in the vast majority of games (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 25, 13:22:44
        
        Hughton has specifically said you can't do that in this league (NCFC) - duke of york, Nov 25, 13:21:26
        
        When did "pressing" become such a cutting edge tactic (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 25, 13:29:38
        
        it's all about pressing as a team (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 25, 13:37:29
        
        Spot on for once, so we don't press and we aren't organised to press as a team - CORRECT! (n/m) (NCFC) - Kirrie, Nov 25, 13:49:48
        
        well, you obviously don't think so (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 25, 13:51:50
        
        Like the Man City game, we let 'em have possession up to our penalty box... (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 25, 13:31:20
        
        And Spurs. I could have looked world class in the spurs midfield that day (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 25, 13:36:08
        
        Eriksen said after the game, he couldn't believe how much space he had (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 25, 13:40:17
        
        I missed it if he said that.. perhaps he has changed his approach since then (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 25, 13:26:43
        
        No, that was quite recently (NCFC) - duke of york, Nov 25, 13:27:49
        
        do you have a link anywhere? (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 25, 13:28:49
        
        It was against West Ham (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 25, 13:30:37
        
        ah ok.. well that's slightly different (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 25, 13:35:47
        
        well... clearly pressing was the way to go because we were total dogshit in the first half (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 25, 13:38:35
        
        how much credit does Hughton deserve for the tweaks he made at half time (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 25, 13:39:54
        
        he made some decent tweaks for once. (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 25, 13:41:24
        
        we started the 2nd half shit so not much! (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 25, 13:40:25
        
        really it was the gift goal that changed the game (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 25, 13:42:16
        
        indeed (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 25, 13:45:16
        
        No, I don't (NCFC) - duke of york, Nov 25, 13:29:44
        
        ROLF (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 25, 13:10:06
        
        we've not picked up any points against the big 6 this season so far (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 25, 13:00:10
        
        Everton? (n/m) (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Nov 25, 13:02:24
        
        he said big 6... (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 25, 13:03:19
        
        Everton or Spurs... We should probably be talking about a big 5 (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 25, 13:04:24
        
        everton could well finish above spurs (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 25, 13:06:41
        
        SPurs ManC ManU Arse Liverpool Chelsea were my big 6 (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 25, 13:03:01
        
        no, that obviously isn't unrealistic (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 25, 12:46:43
        
        I agree, I expect Liverpool to hump us, but it's a legacy of previous matches (NCFC) - lovely old job, Nov 25, 12:49:23
        
        But should he go if we lose to Palace? (n/m) (NCFC) - duke of york, Nov 25, 12:48:27
        
        I don't know, but it could be difficult for him to stay I think (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 25, 13:00:59
        
        OK (NCFC) - duke of york, Nov 25, 13:08:25
- Yes (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Nov 25, 12:37:40
- If we don't beat palace he will go I reckon (n/m) (NCFC) - strap_on sally, Nov 25, 12:34:49
