Long and Zaha would be utterly superb signings for this team, even if only on 6 month loans.



Don't see why fellow relegation candidates WBA and Man U would loan us players

Our fans attitudes are laughable.

1) The love in for Malky has deluded their minds in terms of the actual goals of the club

2) Whilst I appreciate what Malky has done for the club I can also appreciate his many faults

3) No we will not stay up in this manner. Norwich created a lot today and when RVW is in form they will start to finish and start to gain results and climb the table. They have done it before from similar points tallies in previous seasons - they also have the experience of being able to compete for the long haul at this level

4) The last team to play this dire ended up back in the Championship - Birmingham City - their stay only lasted so long because they actually had fairly decent target men who could bring others into play and disrupt play - we have Campbell who has the physical presence of a Chihuahua

5) Our fans have gone from 'we cant beat Chelsea and we should not expect points and we'll beat the teams around our level then when he don't like today they say 'we cant expect to beat Norwich at this level at home'. WHERE ARE THE POINTS COMING FROM THEN IN TERMS OF WINS? THIS IS THE PREMIER LEAGUE - 38 GAMES AND NORWICH ARE ARGUABLY IN THE 25% LOWEST BRACKET IN TERMS OF QUALITY. IF WE CANT EXPECT TO BEAT THEM, WHO CAN WE EXPECT TO BEAT? ANSWER ME PLEASE.

Annis a point away at Norwich is a good result. They finished 11th last season and we've got no god given right to win anywhere in this division. We'll play much better than today and lose, but after nine games its still a learning curve. We're tough to beat but definitely need some creative spark, but these things take time

Of all the other newly promoted sides the last ten years I'm sure the stats will be favourable to us compared to everybody else's starts to a new campaign. Plenty of time and room for improvement

:thumbup:

Wez/Annis we just played a team in their third season of the prem and they have spent more money than us.

You keep dreaming boys. It's all about survival. In Malky we trust!

We're not a big club yet. We should be winning lol

This is just my opinion so don't get upset.

Re: Sorry but I feel we should be winning these games

Any body happy with that point needs to watch the full 90 mins we got battered, Norwich ripped apart our left side and Malky takes of our right sided midfielder, Sorry out of his depth and relegation beckons with this style of play.

£35m actually and £8m of that hasn't even been accounted for yet. That will happen in due course. Southampton spent £40m last year and it took them a lot longer to adjust than we have

Sat Oct 26, 2013 5:59 pm

Yes we need to pick up points from the lower end teams but a point away and a win at home is by far enough. Don't be greedy. Yes I am concerned with the ataking side at the mo but a point is fantastic away from home

Cammann boys!

Fussy buggers!

Why do you expect to go to Norwich and beat them at home? We are a bottom 4 team and will be scrapping for points every game, any away point is a good point. What makes you think we are a better team than Norwich very strange.



Because if you can't beat the teams below you, in my opinion your in trouble.

I don't read this forum much anymore. The amount of drama queens here is embarrassing. My point is we've played our first nine games without a striker we broke our transfer record for. I don't overreact and knee-jerk like the many here and it's like you lot spending £13 million on Bony and still not seeing him play. The proof in the pudding of how well spent the money was is when the big Dane has a couple of months start, until then all reasoned Cardiff fans(no here)will give the benefit of the doubt

Any point away from home in this league is a good point. What makes you think that we've a divine right to win these sorts of games?

2 wins out of 9 games and struggling against a bottom 3 team is not good enough in my opinion, but many disagree that's what's good about opinions and football :thumbup:

Fulham, Hull and Norwich we've picked up five away points. An excellent return for a newly promoted side who will be fighting at the bottom of the table.

Pleased with a point away from home against anyone in this league.
The only point I'd make is today our midfield except Gary went missing first half. No pressing and gave them far too much space. Norwich had over 30 attempts! That's just bloody ridiculous. Taylor got light headed if he went near the half way line. What was that all about?
Bellers to replace Whitts on the left for me. Whitts's dead balls were awful again. Never thought I'd want Son of Malky to start, but hope he plays instead of Kimbo next week.

Re: Sorry but I feel we should be winning these games

Sat Oct 26, 2013 6:58 pm

I think a point away is a good result as long as we win the home return games.
The performance is of more concern if we are going to continue this way as we won't always pick up points playing this way.

I think that you need to look at Norwich's HOME RECORD before making a statement like the one above.
Since August 2012 Norwich have played 24 home matches - they have won 10 of them including Man. U. and Arsenal. They drew 8 of them including Spurs, Swansea and Everton and the only lost 6 matches against Chelsea (twice), Villa (twice), Liverpool and Man. City. Apart from Villa, only teams who regularly play in the Champions League have beaten Norwich at home in their last 24 home matches. Do you rate us as a Champions League team? I don't, but I rate us as a mid table team who I'll bet to beat the Norwich's of this world because I'm an optimist ( my heart rules my head when betting ), but I expected a draw.

Sorry Pal I have to disagree, we have to find our way in this League, draw away win at home against the likes of Hull and Norwich and stay up easy and build on it next season :ayatollah: :malky:

Malky don't listen to them, you are no fool like Phil Brown and Holloway that think teams coming up can play attacking football in the first few seasons :malky:

Re: Sorry but I feel we should be winning these games

Sat Oct 26, 2013 8:41 pm

must agree with AA as i feel that our survival will depend on results at matches like Norwich. they, like us will take the occasional big scalp so that will even itself out. it therefore comes down to matches like today and playing 30% possession football means relegation. i have never been a fan of mm as he sets out not to loose and when he concedes he cannot come back.
we played hoof and hope football in the championship and it would appear that he thinks it can work here. it can't

Re: Sorry but I feel we should be winning these games

Sat Oct 26, 2013 8:45 pm

I completely disagree.

When Malky reviewed the fixtures at the start of the season and how the team would get to 40 points, he would have had this down as 1 point. Especially when you consider that we weren't exactly very good today!

i agree, my mate who's a Stoke fan said to me, forget the results from the top 6 teams, any points off them are a bonus, Win your home games, pick a few points on your travel and you'll be alright...Today we picked a point up :ayatollah: :malky:
