A Record Breaking Run Of Inconsistency.

Win one lose one draw one. Yes you’ve got it, the Christmas programme of results mirrors the season to date exactly. Won nine lost nine drawn eight.  In essence the form of mid table mediocrity as defined as you will see in any side any season. ...

Tell Me Why? I Don't Like Mondays

When your only consolation approaching 5pm on a Saturday is the Budgies loosing and the only thing that makes facing workmates on a Monday morning is the poor performance of other local rivals its a sure sign that your own team is not giving you an awful...

A Tale Of Two Cities

Yes I was at Carrow Road last Sunday and no I don’t want to talk about it. Highlight of the day? Breakfast at a Little Chef on the Norwich ring road, enough said. Wednesday evening saw my prediction of a low attendance and subdued atmosphere following...

A week in Ibiza or a day at Wembley? (You don't have to choose just yet)

If Town had managed to hold our for a couple of minutes more against Sheffield United then the validity or otherwise of Jim’s substitutions would not have been put under the microscope of scrutiny by phone in’s, forums and message boards that followed...

It's a results based business.

After ralding ‘The Ram’s’ defence at Portman Road last weekend, Town were subjected to what was more like a ‘ram raid’ in the first fifteen minutes of Tuesday nights fixture at St Andrews. In boxing terms while the victory against Derby County was a...

What Do You Want First, The Good News Or The Bad News?

The bad news was that Town lost on Saturday, the good news is that it was the first defeat in the last seven games.  But given that defeat was against a side rock bottom of the division with only two previous victories this season it was akin to...

From 'Hero to Zero' in two seconds?

Now that the dust is beginning to settle regarding the very momentary indescretion by David Norris in his goal celebration at Blackpool, I feel that a much less reactionary viewpoint on the incident needs to be aired.  In this day and age proffessional...

Ready 'Steady' Go!

If self defamation was the catalyst for Jon Steads resurgent form and match winning substitution against QPR on Saturday, then perhaps the rest of the Town squad should take turns chastising themselves publicly before games. Town were already knocking...

Fortress or Bouncy Castle?

Last Saturday's victory at Home Park against an in form Plymouth side was well received to say the least.  After last seasons pointless trip to the West Countryand others North, South and East, Town's away form this time round has been nothing short...

Sometimes There's No Point In A Point

Going a whole season without loosing a game sounds impressive by any standards. If that statistic though was mirrored by not winning a game all season, the points tally would almost certainly get you relegated. The 'point' I am making is that Town are...

Let's make more noise than the 'Boo' Boys.

Venting frustration at the performance of your team or individuals within it, in a verbal manner has long been the norm for fans at league venues across the country and now growingly at international level.  While having every right to critisise...

Half a league, half a league, half a league onward!

Ok so it wasn’t quite the ‘Valley of death’ though the thousands of Town fans that filled the South Stand may well christen it thus after another fruitless visit coupled with the Premiership hangover ticket price of £30 and the squad is not quite up to...

Heinz Leaves Barnsley Playing Ketchup!

The 'Doom & Gloom' surrounding Saturday's lack lustre draw with Palace on Saturday aswell as the bringing in to question of the Manager's team selection and tactical awareness by some sections of the crowd were put to rest temporarily at least...

Is team selection just a load of balls?

I wanted four, we got two but it could so easily have been six.   Most fans would take a draw away if offered pre-hostilities regardless of opposition, but on reflection we probably deserved more at both St Mary’s and Hillsborough. Two points...

There's only one Jonny Walters! Or is there?

At last a home performance like those we had become used to last season. Half the team at least had a realistic shout for the man of the match accolade, none more so than the fan's man of the season last term, Jon Walters.  Voted player of the year...
