Any ITK’s who can find out what Yasir texted to Eales when the camera zoomed in on them during match y’day ? Yasir sees they’re on telly, pumps out a quick text, Eales goes in his pocket, pulls out his phone, reads it, smirks My guess was “new stadium incoming, it’s ours boys, keep the faith”

Why dat ? Keepers just get to chill for 30 mins whilst the outfield players and sub keepers are grafting on the pitch ?

Sounds to me like “fuck off ya daft cunt”

He’d vamoosed when I got there at 1ish Probs went off for a nice relaxing poo before kick off

Is it normal for Pope not to do the pre-match warm up ? Got into the ground much earlier than normal today so watched the warm up for a change, thought Pope mustn't be playing as there was no sign of him on the pitch

We won the game but lost the all important stats duel ? So today’s emotion should be sad, yes ? Asking for a friend

Ask him to solve this puzzle. The chicken is a RW The fox is a CB The grain is our transfer budget The boat is PSR The far side of of the river is NUFC The boat is only big enough to take 1 item at a time. How can he get all 3 across the river to NUFC?

I’d like to know what he thinks about the pedestrianisation of Norwich city centre

There’s so much absolute bollocks floating about on Twatter that it’s impossible to know who we’ve actually been in for and where they’re playing But let’s assume the Olise, Tosin, Guehi and Mamardashvili links had enough in them to be true. All great players but three had more attractive suitors, and one had a club who didn’t want to sell That’s not a failure in identification of great players or players whose fee we can afford, it’s a failure in understanding how attractive the player thinks NUFC are if Bayern, Chelsea or Liverpool also come in for them. And that failure happened 3 times Plus 1 failure in understanding whether a club actually wants to sell 4 times isn’t bad luck, its an ambitious but flawed recruitment strategy

Shitty window If we’re serious about being a top end side then we need much better squad depth My main question is how come we were a less attractive and underesourced club but still identified and landed Trippier, Bruno, Botman, Isak, Tonali, Gordon & Pope. And Livramento, Barnes and Hall aren’t in that bracket yet but are good players for decent money. 2 windows have now gone past without a single player coming in who you could compare to that group What’s changed in our scouting and signing process ? I treat 98% of Twatter rumours as complete lies, but I do get the impression we’re targeting a small number of great players, but not landing them So by default we’re targeting the wrong players

I just told my lass exactly the same but she’s sceptical I can achieve such an ambitious goal

Forest are buying the Gallowgate pigeon off us for £20m

This window was a negative and right now I need two positives. One to cancel out the negative and another one just so I can have a positive

I think you'll find it's at which stage do we stop planetracking ? I've been living in a tent next to Dobbies in Ponteland since the transfer window opened, but will have to move back into my house when the window SLAMS SHUT

I'd add Michael McIntyre to that list And I'd put him at the top of it

Wonder if there's Gooners on a forum screaming bloody murder at each other about why Arsenal haven't forced us to sell Isak to them after Sesko stayed at Leipzig

Agree, if I was CEO and had asked the transfer team to improve the squad this window, I'd be grilling them about what was going wrong in our identification of players who were both suitable and landable. But the point I was replying to was that we'd only pursued Guehi and no-one else. Maybe we did, maybe we didn't, but no-one outside of the NUFC transfer team and some other clubs / agents can possibly know And to be fair to Mitchell he's only been in the job a few weeks so if I was CEO he wouldn't be the one I'd be concerned about yet, if we plan our targets properly over the mid-term like has been suggested, then I imagine his involvement this window has been limited

How do you know we've done that, are you in regular contact with the NUFC transfer committee ? This window has been frustrating, no doubt about it. But we might have tried to land 10 x target CB's and been knocked back each time, by the payer or their club. Unless the answer to my question above is "yes" then you (or anyone else on here) doesn't know what's actually happened that's caused our lack of incoming transfer activity.

Not at all. That's 100% wasn't my point I'm just trying to make people actually stop and think about how many variables have to align to make a transfer actually happen

Pure speculation Maybe he went to Saudi because he's obsessed with learning how to drive dune buggies
