Because it's a long term plan where hopefully it will mean

Long term, sustained success with a good bulk of assistance for that coming from the academy - young players trained, prepared and ready to play our style. Rather than the way it has been - a couple of good seasons and then back to square one having spunked huge money on gambles of players in the hope of clinging onto Prem survival.

      - If you think that’s where the club is heading, I can’t help you. (n/m) (NCFC) - Waz, Jan 20, 22:40:17
        
        the club doesn't know where it is heading either (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 20, 22:49:31
      - The whole point is to NOT end up with players like Gow and Money on loan (NCFC) - Azteca, Jan 20, 21:03:36
        
        I am 53 I have been going for 48 years, I have lots of patience, I am losing (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 20, 21:18:09

        In fairness it did, I saw Norwich finish 3rd, 4th, 5th and reach 2 FA Cup semis & win a (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 20, 21:38:26
        
        Different era to what we have today. And being pedantic (NCFC) - Azteca, Jan 20, 21:42:34

        Hence why I am willing to give this new approach time (NCFC) - Azteca, Jan 20, 21:48:46
        
        Sustained success is a bit optimistic (NCFC) - CWC, Jan 20, 21:53:25
        
        Which is why there is such importance on us nurturing these players ourselves (n/m) (NCFC) - Azteca, Jan 20, 21:55:48
        
        but we may nuture what we already have but why would young players sign for a mid range (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 20, 22:02:30
        
        Suspect some will join specificlly BECAUSE of our approach (NCFC) - Azteca, Jan 20, 22:04:51

        Let's hope not (n/m) (NCFC) - Azteca, Jan 20, 22:13:01
        
        I completely understand, I will stick with its but its as boring as hell. (n/m) (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 20, 21:51:55
        
        I don't disagree on that - and I've only been to a handful of away games (n/m) (NCFC) - Azteca, Jan 20, 21:53:35
        
        I actually like how we play away it's the fact we can't adapt to play home games in a (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 20, 21:58:06
        
        Tbf to Webber & co they did say (warn us) it would take a few windows (NCFC) - Azteca, Jan 20, 22:01:58
      - How about we give them a chance to rebuild the squad (NCFC) - usacanary, Jan 20, 20:13:38
        
        why are playing Maddison and Gunn then? (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 20, 20:19:23
        
        Godfrey will do well but he will be much cheaper as he is not a goal scoring (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 20, 20:21:17
        
        we will rebuild with cheap untalented players & loans we are back to pre Lambert days we (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 20, 20:18:51
        
        Like Zimmerman and Trybul and Mario (n/m) (NCFC) - Azteca, Jan 20, 21:05:21
        
        Agree with LOJ and Mecagoenti... (n/m) (NCFC) - Lager top, Jan 20, 20:42:45
- Sorry precious, but we were shit (n/m) (NCFC) - Mickdundee, Jan 20, 19:45:51
  - You just don’t get it....it’s not about this season it’s about the future and (NCFC) - BINMEN8R, Jan 20, 19:53:31
    - what does future proofing the club have to do with (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 20, 19:56:01
      - Change of tactics & philosophy and wrong players to suit. (n/m) (NCFC) - BINMEN8R, Jan 20, 19:59:00
        
        what makes you so sure the change of tactics and philosophy is going to work (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 20, 20:05:31
        
        Because financially if we’d have gone all and failed we’d have been up (NCFC) - BINMEN8R, Jan 20, 21:31:51
        
        but they are not the only two options (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 20, 22:33:26
        
        Exactly this (NCFC) - CWC, Jan 20, 21:56:31
        
        actually it was the season before we were in the prem with a decenish squad but a manager (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 20, 22:00:01
        
        True... (n/m) (NCFC) - CWC, Jan 20, 22:29:47
        
        Yes...little option. It’s not this year that’s the problem it’s failed years previously (n/m) (NCFC) - BINMEN8R, Jan 20, 21:37:31
        
        yes prudence with ambition. (n/m) (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 20, 21:34:27
        
        Didn't exactly do the business last season, did they? (n/m) (NCFC) - Azteca, Jan 20, 21:07:36
        
        that's a bit of a simplistic argument (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 20, 21:14:20
        
        So who was the manager to guarantee an improved performance to get us up? (n/m) (NCFC) - Azteca, Jan 20, 21:16:04
        
        that's a bit of a straw man (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 20, 21:20:54
        
        Because it's a long term plan where hopefully it will mean (NCFC) - Azteca, Jan 20, 21:28:50
        
        didn't we have a 5 year plan 6 or 7 years ago nobody talks about that anymore it didn't (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 20, 21:31:38
        
        The plan woeked didnt it? (NCFC) - CWC, Jan 20, 21:47:31
        
        well the first stages of it did but then we ripped the plan up and started again. (n/m) (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 20, 21:52:52
        
        So you're and Mac thingys answer is to extend the 5/6/7 plan that didn't work for longer? (NCFC) - Azteca, Jan 20, 21:36:35
        
        the players you mention, none will be here next season, but every thing is great (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 20, 20:07:09
        
        yep, that's exactly my concern with our approach this season (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 20, 20:14:29
        
        exactly. (n/m) (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 20, 20:19:27
      - our tactics at home are one dimensional, appalling & clueless, today was like every (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 20, 19:58:15
        
        Outplayed every home game this season 😂 (n/m) (NCFC) - BINMEN8R, Jan 20, 20:00:49

        We’ve outplayed several...to suggest we’ve been outplayed every home game is laughable (n/m) (NCFC) - BINMEN8R, Jan 20, 21:35:08
        
        who? (n/m) (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 20, 21:36:00
        
        and by the way tell me what game at home have we had any control over? (n/m) (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 20, 20:08:01
    - well done but don't criticise other people for feeling slightly annoyed. (n/m) (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 20, 19:54:48
