They're just an odd bunch.
14 years since we beat them is more important than -
Us being far more successful
Us having bigger crowds
Us having bigger away followings
Us having a smaller wage budget but still doing far better
which brings to the next point - 21 points ahead already, despite being in league one last season
We have 0 to very little debt whereas they have 80+ million I believe I read?
But 14 years... OK then... [Post edited 21 Dec 2023 12:56]

Blimey, TWTD must get a lot of traffic from Norfolk. Didn’t realize they were all such keen followers of this board. W@ kers, all of them. |  |

There's a couple of proper d1ckheads on that thread isn't there? The mythical fans who said exactly what I want trope gets a good airing too. |  |

Their whole being right now is hoping we fail and not them succeeding!
Hoping we get injuries, Morsy off to AFCON, lack of money to spend. We are so mentally weak we have managed over 100 points and 100 goals in the calendar year. And the idea there is FFP seems to have passed them by as our owners have millions why aren't we spending it! |  | | |

I shouldn't be I just feel sad for them. Always been in our shadow going by trophies, head to head. Europe etc, that the 14 years they bang on about is all they got left.
Said it before but if we don't beat them in April next year, that 14 years could easily become 25 years as we are going upwards and with their parachute money gone next season the only place they are going is downwards so unless we meet in the Cup, could be at least 10 years plus before we meet them in the league again. |  |

Let them have their moment. They are on a high after scrapping a draw with us. Bless them. |  |

One word suffices to sum up the Oink'Un since this season started to pan out and the path ahead became clear for both clubs... desperation.
Sheer, frantic, excuse-hunting, bluffing and blustering... DESPERATION. |  |

"We killed them mentally last week, most of their fans I spoke to this week almost seemed it's inevitable they'll lose to Leeds and Leicester considering they "can't beat us"."
Deluded. Drawing with them hasn't changed anything I think towards our chances in the next 2 games.
If we turn up, I don't think we lose either. | | | |

It’s the classic Norfolk mix of delusion, ignorance and arrogance. | |

"Can't beat us"
Was just a case of 'didn't beat them'. Doesn't mean we can't. Play that game nine times out of ten and we win by a couple of goals at least I suspect, given the dominance.
I've seen the comments about that derailing our season too, all a bit desperate blind hope. I recall Leeds fans saying we had crumbled after drawing two away games. It does seem to me that to football fans these days, drawing is the new defeat. |  |

I find the accusation I’ve seen them band about as being “mentally weak” particularly odd.
Mentally weak teams don’t go on the unprecedented run we’ve been on this calendar year. Last season, it was any slip up could cost us promotion.
Mentally weak teams don’t regularly come back from being behind… mentally weak teams certainly don’t come back to clinch a draw in a big derby game after leading then going behind. |  | | |

It's the sort of extraordinary attribute transference that you only usually tend to see in Belgians! | |

"Blimey, you have a long memory
And it is a measure of how much a 'cup final' this was for you lot ie it might have impacted on your season - for us it was just another mid-season game, though it certainly delivered loads of laughs up her over your failure after so much hype"
How on earth would they know what that is?
I was speaking to a Norwich fan at work and all he had was "14 years" and "when you drop to 3rd and we get 6th you'll be done and we'll smash you". A week ago he was saying that they're heading to League 1 and that Delia and Wagner need to get out - one day they're getting relegated and the next they're beating us in the play offs! Very fickle bunch. | | | |

I knew they were pathetic and desperate but that is one of the most tragic threads I’ve ever read.
They’ve just made up a load of stuff and are now starting to believe it. Too many highlights in there to list.
But one moron made a hypothetical situation that “Kenny” (I’ve no idea who he is either) stuck a chance in the top corner in injury time which has already started our 3 match losing streak.
Apparently we’ve got loads of money? Imagine spending what they have on that abysmal one dimensional team which rocked up at PR on Saturday. | | | |

They've had a manager that went on to be England manager to be fair. |  |

Maybe we could borrow their bus?
I think they have it on stand by for occasions like the anniversary of when they participated in Europe. | | | |

To add to the list, they made a comment that we have borrowed loads of money and will need to pay it back?
As you say, literally making things up. | |

We should parody their song at Carrow Road... "You've won nothing yet Norwich City.."
In an era Reading, Hull, Wigan and Swansea managed a sustained period in the top flight, Norwich's best effort was a yoyo team and were relegated what 6 times.
"Dominance" |  | | |

I've come to the conclusion after all, Innsy, that you are NOT a deep cover sleeper agent for the yellow peril (or if you were you've been turned and are part of the 'twenty' operation XX). My unconditional apologies for any slurs I may have sent your way in the past.
Of course, if you turn out to be Bill Haydon (or perhaps Richard Burton in Where Eagles Dare), I shall have to fall on my sword for the good of the Circus. | |
