Yeah but

if you have success then you can be "caustic" with the press and maybe players but NEVER with the fans.
As soon as you start dis-ing the fans you are in a world of pain.

Maybe roeder thought he was above us poor little Norwich fans who still thought we owed him something after last years escape. How wrong he was.
