This Jayson Blair / Rick Wankhorn thing again
I first wondered if he was Waghorn or a close friend due to the know all way he wrote this:
*The great Waghorn/Balls b***hfest
Sorry I'm posting a little late, but Great Neck couldn't be avoided this weekend.
Anyway, here are some facts to consider:
Mick Dennis has written for national & provincial titles outside of Norfolk, giving him the advantage of objectivity over Balls.
The first shot in this great journalistic war was fired by Balls, in a column of Apr 22 last season. Coming, as it did, two days before Waghorn ?left the building?, some might say it was timed to prevent any reply ? which is hardly sporting.
As for journos knowing their stuff, Balls got Louie Donowa and Mark Barham hopelessly confused when writing about his ?most memorable match? (one was black with limited ability; one was white, tricky and played for England). No fan with a decent knowledge of NCFC should be making that mistake, let alone News Editor of a well-respected provincial newspaper.

For what its worth he wrote this a month ago:
*it's all getting a bit complicated
but really it should be quite simple -
if you emailed Neil Doncaster and said that keeping NW would lead to disaster / relegation / an empty Carrow Road then you have been proved wrong and should admit it.
if you ever posted on a bulletin board that Jurgen Colin / Andy Hughes / Dickson Etuhu was the worst player in Norwich history or that NW was the worst manager in NCFC history, then you have been proved (mostly) wrong and should admit it.
if you didn't believe that the current squad / management could turn it around and play good / winning football, then you have been proved wrong and should admit it.
Until this happens I guess the KTFers will feel entitled to have their fun.*
WHOS WINNING NOW WANKER!!!!
