I have to say I completely agree with SJ on this, it's all well and good having a few decent seasons when things go your way but we are and always will be THE team of East Anglia, even though we are having a tough few seasons look back over the last 15 seasons even and you will be surprised which of the Two teams have finished higher up the football pyramid the most, it's closer than you may think.

Are there trolls under bridges in the No-f*ck half of Diss Town?!

Big expectations for Hibs, Wolfie......, I expect the league title.

Slightly lower than mid table for ITFC.

What about the Peking Wanderers? Where are they going to be come May?

most of the trolls moved out from under bridge to blend in well with the Norfolk folk.
I have big expectations for the mighty Hibs this season.

as for the Wolves I'm sort of in two minds, glad Kenny kept his job as he deserves a chance to see how he does with a full squad, I think he actually kept us from going down last year, the big plus is Morgan and Moxey have gone, both refused to invest when they had the chance in the premier with Mick, the players we lost because of our wages structure was Div 2 stuff.
Money doesn't always mean success as history has shown, I always predict we are going to win the league so bring it on.

COYH, Town , and us, lets all have a great season.

as an outsider, when East Anglia is mentioned in football terms, Ipswich Town come first, cant see that changing anytime soon.

Amen to that. Thoroughly looking forward to it.

When I hear the word "Ipswich", I see Mills lifting trophies, I see Reujser scoring at Wembley..........., When I hear the word "Norwich", I see Nicholas Parsons.

Guys, that is funny, but seriously....., I see Parsons, no joke.

"And now. From Norwich. Its the quiz of the week." cue, cheesy music followed by annoying bstd, Parsons.

This is a very accurate account of Norwich City on TV, and its half time with the pundits.

Host pundit: Ok, 1-1 at half time. Peter, thoughts on the first half.
Peter: Well I thought Norwich.............
Me, getting my a$$ off the couch to go look in the fridge: AND NOW, FROM NORWICH...., ITS THE QUIZ OF THE WEEK....., *cheesy music with dance*, completely ignoring Beagries views on the game.

This subject has legs but not prepared to run with it for much further. Viewed something today that was either a genuine scenario or some gimmick that went bizarrely wrong but you could get people in parts of the world such as Memphis or Bolivia who are blind to the activities of English soccer and believe what was presented resembled one of the UK's 'hooligan firms'

The 'stand on a chair with a light ale in a beverage cup holder' idea works to a certain extent, but if this is genuine, then not only have Norwich provided themselves with further embarrassment, but attention must be brought to the number of kids who are clearly not of age to be drinking and (not only) that : no-one in the vicinity even appears to be beyond 25 years of age ?

(This was taken earlier this calendar year at a game with Aston Villa before the Birmingham club's relegation)

Young 'uns, Wolfie? Are you fkn kidding me? They'd ALL teach us a thing or two about the colourful language.

Was in Sunderland only last week on a job, near a hospital and when I was walking back to the car, I heard a woman say, through clenched teeth, to a maybe 5 or 6 year old lad, "Move it, or I'll tell your dad when we get home," ....., to which the "Young un" replied, "Fk you! Tell dad. I dont fking care!"

I was shocked. I just casually smiled and walked past.

I'm going to assume the Ipswich Young Uns will be ok with a few words....... Yes, even you Hallam! :D

My P1 teacher said to me, ......, "Now, Gary......., this is your coat peg here, ok?"
I said, "No it's not ok, Miss"
"Why?"
"Because my name is Mark you fat, ginger cow."

Didn't start off very well at all.
