Budgies getting twitchy lol

They talk about us not beating them for last 15 years. But how many of those years have we actually been in the same division? Can’t beat em if we’re not in the same division. So it’s a bit of smoke n mirrors by the webbed footed ones in my book.

The last time we played them was 10 Feb 2019 when they won 3-0 at Carrow Road.

The last time we won was 19 April 2009 at Portman Road 3-2.

Since then we’ve played them 12 times, D5 & L7.

I think if we held that record we’d be gloating too Liz.

I think it’s long overdue to put the record straight.

Still 14 games away. (13 league & Fulham) And maybe one other game should Fulham be swept aside. (No idea when the LC games QF dates are)

…… but point is, hopefully guys like Morsy can time the bookings accordingly. Could do with the very strongest 11 on Dec16. Get that miniature hoodoo sorted out.

Thing is it’s taken us to go into administration and suffer a near 20 year fall out from that ( often not even being in the same division as them for most of those years, for them to be able to close the gap of wins . Until we fell on hard times, we were lightyears ahead in the shouting rights. So in fact their “ record” during that time is D 5 W7 …. Nothing special in my book , and especially given the bear £bn Sky money they’ve had through their bank account.

Used to provide our winning of the top league, F.A Cup, European trophy etc to their one League Cup 'victory' but guess after so many years forward and time in-between what major use is it now. They've been way ahead of us in terms of accomplishment the last 20 years although just recent, in fact very recent, we may just have surpassed them once again. Can't overlook the whole time also we possessed chairpersons and owners who didn't give a rat's as* while with them at least they had in Delia Smith and Mike Wynn-Jones who would bleed for the cause or give near all to help them succeed.

They got a subject underway or something where McKenna could be a potential target for the Govan Huns. (They're looking for a new team coach.) It's not above bullshit but stranger things have occurred. Kieran's done an outstanding job here with still work to do. No chance in swapping what he's got for a two-horse race in a division most neutrals fail to recognize or can only berate or find disdain in.

Got to say two things here, Saint.

1. I may have missed something but Norwich have accomplished feck all. Many won’t recognise a play off final win when its being compared to a title, FA Cup or UEFA, regardless of the era. Its all relative as they say……. They’ve accomplished a League Cup win as you say, but they’ve done diddly squat recently.

2. Kieron would be off his head if he went to The Newly formed Sevco FC. He must be getting advised to stay well away from that place if any rumours are true.

Surely not. Would be the worst possible move he could make. Loving it though as "genius" Beale has made some mess. He's like a Celtic plant !
Guess McKenna's name is going to come up for every job listed
