On this day in 2024 🗓️ Norwich beat Ipswich in the East Anglian derby! 🤩 Marcelino Nunez scoring the only goal from miles out! 🤩 Tapping the badge as well 👀

You’re 1-0 down in the 92nd minute… 😳 You’ve got a free kick 25 yards… 👀 Name which former player from your club you’re choosing to take it👇🤔

@FabrizioRomano $18m Canadian is less than £10m - he is not leaving for that 😂😂😂

🚨🇨🇦 EXCL: Toronto FC send official bid to Norwich for Josh Sargent worth $18m fee. Negotiations underway as #NCFC are in talks over deal details. Sargent could head to the MLS soon.

I bumped in a few elderly shoe-makers who were spouting off every conspiracy you could think of. What a load of old cobblers.

We asked our 2-year old who another child was in his Tapestry photos. He didn’t know so said, “That’s a badger!” We found that funny and he cottoned on. If we ask him what something is now, “It’s a badger!”. 🦡 I showed him a picture of an actual badger; “That’s a hedgehog.” 🦔

Yeah, this season for #NCFC is going terribly but I genuinely think we will be title winners next season… and we’ll bounce straight back to the Championship.

@oro7777777 Which is why one of my points was that Manning does need to take responsibility and consider balancing the players we have and the system he plays - he’s not helping himself with some of the choices he makes.

@LJK612 Time there is, which is why no more should be wasted. I’m more than happy to give a manager time and am more patient than most (as I was with JHT!), but there has to be something to believe in and get behind in terms of a project

The issues at #ncfc run deeper than Manning not winning as a manger. Whilst many fans want him out, it’s a short-sighted action in my opinion. Firstly, the club have committed to a multi-year long-term plan - scrapping it after 9 league games, no matter how poor, is ridiculous.

@oro7777777 That’s always going to be the goal (I think Webber called it ‘Top 26’ in the country?), and I agree with that target, but they also need to realise that football doesn’t always work that way. Also, it’s still only 9/46 games gone - there is time.

@LJK612 They’ve made their bed though, they said there was no ambiguity last year about the goals and we should be around the playoffs. And that the trend was downwards. Well now the trend is even more downwards and we’re nowhere near where we were told we should be expecting to he

@oro7777777 Oh, 100% agree. We shouldn’t have done it before but we can’t keep doing that as a go-to. We have to accept we will have take the short-term hit if we want long-term success.

@LJK612 That would be fair, if we hadn’t already scrapped a multi-year long-term plan to chase short term results

Ipswich fans will eventually realise that if that’s the way Nunez (🐍) treats a club that showed him so much love, he WILL do the same to them as soon as he gets the chance. Kissing the badge means nothing to him.

Sacking Manning’s a quick but expensive option that just kicks the can down the road, not solving any actual issues. All effective resolutions will take time, but all need to be quickly and meaningfully tackled. We all want our club to succeed. Little by little won’t do anymore.

The fans are not responsible for any of this, buuuuuut they are vital. The last dozen or so times I’ve been at Carrow Road it’s been tragically quiet. Win, lose or draw, playing well or poor, the atmosphere needs to be better. The only noise I tend to hear is muttered complaints.
