It is funny to an extent - but he's just comparing Premier League clubs. Norwich were a smaller PL club than Chelsea. We're not even on a PL radar.
I hate to say it, but NCFC are a bigger club than us with more resources at the moment - and they have a recent PL history.
Hopefully, they'll miss the promotion race again and the parachute payments run out.
The best thing is for us to stop looking up at NCFC and concentrate on improving our situation.

They certainly are not a bigger club. Their owner may have a fat PL flop bank balance....but being in the PL for a season and then getting relegated again is not exactly evidence of being a bigger club. The only thing they are good at is being a yo-yo Club.
They are still a Championship club however they want to dress is up. and our trophy cabinet dies actually have done notable silverware in it lol.

Yes, I'm tending to agree with Tang on this one Miss Hallam, but that's only because I'd like to go over the knee for a spanking!
I fear Norwich could still potentially become the West Brom or Stoke; once yo-yos but now stable PL outfits. A good season by them and it'll be back on. It's going to be tough though.
But do agree with Tang...., at this moment in history, regarding ITFC & Ncfc, as a fan, there's nothing to laugh about really.
Over to you again, Mick.

I don 't believe they will have a cat in hells chance of going up this coming season and should that be the case thye will find life very tough the following season. That said I couldn't really give a toss about how they do.

Funny in as much as some highly biased ramblings, by an abject failure of a striker, has managed to ignite the age-old 'mine's bigger than yours' debate! Still, not much else going on at present; apart from Marko's obvious disappointment at anticipation thwarted!
