Yes, football is f**ked - and yet you're critical of the club in this thread and you appear to be sneering at other posters for (it appears) repeating what the Sporting Director has said recently.

Norwich City are the antithesis of the ESL attitude but you seem more interested in suggesting that we are part of the problem rather than a flagbearer for doing it differently.
