I know what your point was. Its pitiful. No I'll show him no respect, he's practically buried my club, fans like you actually make me sick. No, wrong again, he didn't take us out of administration at all, we were already out of it and finances were improving before calamity Evans came along

When will you stop backing him and call his disastrous tenure, his complete abject failure for what it is, how low do we need to go?! League 2? Non league perhaps?!! Wise up ffs!!

Practically buried your club?! Really bluearmy?!
Lol.

Anywhere between 7th and 20th makes no difference really. It's a failure, simple as that.

I am realist and the teams currently above us are better organised, hungrier with more goal threat than us so you don't need to be a genius or a supercomputer to work out we ain't gonna make the playoffs.

Norstanda we were out of administration at least a couple of months BEFORE he bought the club. He has single handedly bought in 6 managers in that time let players leave for nothing that originally cost money sold players for a pittance because we're a pushover, hired Clegg, told fans we were pushing for promotion under McCarthy when mick himself said his remit was to keep us up, somehow made our debt 30 million to over 90 million with 50 million bought in on player transfers so somehow spent 110 million on something clearly not playing staff, banged on about a 5 year plan every season past 7 years so again LYING to fans, taken us to our lowest place ever.... do you want me to go on!?? You MUST be fishing here or a Norwich fan to think ANY of that is acceptable otherwise whatever you do as a job can I work for you please if you're happy with that amount of inadequacy as a boss

Evans 11 years with us have been nothing but a shambolic failure. Our standing in English football speaks for itself. Question is - what are you going to do about it?
I'm more concerned with our current on the pitch situation, there's one man IMO accountable for that, although I like Lambert that's where my attention will turn should he fail to take this squad into the playoffs. Having attended many games this season the standard of most of our opponents has been laughable to say the least.

Cat you're right about the opposition but you must also see that apart from Ipswich the teams currently above us all score goals for fun whereas we can barely put two in the net on a good day albeit once recently. This has to be down to training. This is a product of PL's training team. This is a trademark of his recent management with the likes of Wolves and Aston Villa and further back! Nice guy ! I would rather have a bast**d in charge who won games not losing more than 60%. That's relegation material. 5 years! 5 years! 5 years! I canna believe it ME!!!!

The big worry is who would want to buy this club in the state it is in.would the owner walk away with nothing,I doubt it very much so who out there would take the risk.This club at present is walking on very thin ice.We MUST get promoted this season and then move on from there other than that I fear the worst.
I'm sure many of you won't agree with me but these are just my thoughts alone.I am very concerned about the future and long team destination of this club.☹️☹️

R.I.P........ITFC

Norfolkbluey not strictly true, the teams above us don't all score goals for fun. We have 45, Coventry 46, Wycombe 44, Sunderland 46, Portsmouth 48, Fleetwood 48. Only Rotherham, Peterborough and Oxford score for fun.

The disappointing thing match after match is that we make chances and fail to take them as our so called goalscorers are so poor when we get into the last third of the pitch. Aka Keane on Saturday.

Lets not make excuses - we have become a joke of a Club over the past decade.
The world of Football must be in disbelief as to how far from grace we've fallen - and we did once register forcibly, and strongly amongst the elite of the game.
Far too casual, and too many people prepared to make excuse, after excuse, for abject failure - until this stops things will only get worse.
No more excuses for such sh#te please - all it does is condone the current sad state of affairs.
How we still get 20k gates is TOTALLY UNBELIEVABLE - as much so as our beloved Clubs demise.

Many others have said the same thing....we are paying the price for not having a decent striker...

When you look how many goals players like Brett Pittman and Kiefer Moore were scoring in league 1...we've simply got nobody like that at the club....

We should be ripping this league up....not....

Below a team managed by Joey Barton, what a sad state of affairs...

I think a great season for Evans would be losing in the play off final. Packed FPR for the semi, nice slice of the receipts from a full house at Wembley but no need ultimately to pay the wages that go with Championship status. Lob in £10m from the sale of Wolf and Downes in the summer and 2020 is a glory year in his quest to cut his losses. He'll ship out as much talent as he dares before walking away. This is a single minded, ruthless businessman : there is no emotional investment, which is in keeping with the financial side. I just don't buy the saviour angle : all he”s done is add to the debt. Real investment would be writing it off. As to how a club with our attendance levels, well documented low wage budget (until this season) and huge net income from transfers still manages to end up 60m worse off over the last decade is baffling. Incompetence or BS? Either way, it's not good.

Im concerned...sad days......lets hope we can rally and make the playoffs but its been a season of frustration and lack of consistancy 🐬. Maybe we should have stuck with Mick as its just getting worse Coyb

Frustration and consistency, very well put Dolth! Not forgetting a handful of good performances. Despite all this the ENERGY has returned to PR, get some success and this will continue to build, failure, then it could go flat and very ‘toxic, Dino style!

I reckon Evans must have taken over ownership of this site - someone must be coining it in with all these bl##dy annoying adverts.

By and large I do think ME is by intent a good and responsible owner, but certainly not a generous benefactor, which we would certainly need to scale the Championship if and when we get promoted.

He lives on the dream of producing a team from home grown youngsters with only modest amount of investments.

I guess he has just sunk £5 million into extended contracts for PL and his coaching team.

Whilst my patience is wearing thin, I do think PL is starting to realise the spin is turning flat.

I won't buy into any criticism of him still having alliegence to Norwich hence some fantasy plot that this affects his motivation to want us to succeed.

If we fail this year then we can only wait to the end of the season to change the personnel. We do have some very good players but we are missing strength in certain areas but this should not be difficult to fix. @rugbytomc points out the Newcastle Murphy signing and rightly concludes we need one or two Division 1 tough men to compete in a more combative way just to get us out of this hole.

We have all been seduced by the promise to play football on the front foot and if you are scoring more than you concede hey ho what fun. Well when our goal return is shy then things as we have all witnessed start to turn.

Although I say this next bit tongue in cheek, I think if we had kept Toto Nsiala and played him upfront we would have caused far more confusion and pandemonium for the opposition defence then our normal strikers.

Bishop, Huws often look the part but are sadly wanting when it comes to helping the attack by chipping in some goals themselves. Spasmodically, well perhaps on rare occasions Nolan and Judge look as if they can provide a threat but again not covering themselves in glory.

Downes will be player of the season followed shortly by Garbutt and Woolfy, One or two others excepted, we could almost divide the rest of the squad in two, toss a coin and get rid of one half. I don't believe our performances would be much different and would allow us to promote a few more young players to the squad.

It is though the experienced players who we need to look long and hard at and make some difficult decisions as well getting some better experienced players to allow the younger players to thrive.

For an incompetent head coach called Paul
The writing is now on the wall
He's steering us to
The depths of League Two
And soon we'll have no point at all !

Lambert Out

16 months Lambo has been here ! have we improved in that period of time ? up to date a
Big Fat NO ! But still he has got another 5yrs. to make that improvement, wether he will or not we have got to wait and see ?? have not seen a manager get 5yrs contract ? Klopp perhaps ??
I would not like to see our Fans disappear like you see at other clubs with so many empty seats, Coventrys, Rotherham, Fleetwoods and many more clubs

I remember when Joe Royle took over as manager. In 2002.
He was brought in by Sheepshanks (whom I believe is still the main reason behind the state we are in now) In his first press conference, Joe said that it was made clear to him, by Sheepshanks, that there was no money available for transfers.
This was 18 years ago!!!!!
So how are we still in this same position now?
I know money was spent in Roy Keanes era, however, he left in 2011.
So what has Marcus Evans actually achieved? Especially in the 9 years since his error of judgement with Keane.
We have had no money for over 18 years now, so what have the board actually been doing???
We need investment into the squad, and a manager who actually knows what he is doing with that squad. But it has to start with the board investing money.

Carlgibbs,yes we need a manager who knows what he is doing. But not having one for 12years the poor fans would be shell shocked if we ever got one..looking at Evans appointment s so far I don't think we should hold our breath.

only 5 more years of Lambert [Mr Motivator ] by that time , those supporters left will be hoping to see us get back up to Lge 2.. ,
