The official "Norwich City to 40 points and Premier League safety" thread

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

First topic message reminder :

Here is the place, to discuss all of Norwich's results this season, on our quest to reach that 40 point mark, and Premier League safety.

It starts on the 18th of August away to Fulham, and finishes away to Man City sometime in May

[Marky]

Norwich should sign Kieron Dyer, he'd be perfect.

[GSC]

I hear David James needs work

[NickisBHAFC]

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Safety

[NickisBHAFC]

Jon Woodgate would be the perfect signing for you next season. Turner and Bassong not experienced enough for my liking.

Great win for Norwich today though, few more signings next season and i wouldn't rule out a top half finish!

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Today we played like we were playing in the earlier half of the season.

We've scraped over the line, big summer ahead, need to kick on and improve the squad now.

Hughton and co need to show that the period between Xmas and the end of the season was just a blip.

[Duty281]

40 points achieved, safety secured. Well done Norwich.

Time to build for next season now I suppose.

[Amy]

Norwich just as I predicted last season as one season wonders will be back in the championship next year where they belong.

ahem

2,750 FA Youth Cup Final 2nd leg tickets sold. Amazing support #ncfc

Bring it home lads, cap off the weekend

[westisbest]

So obvious Norwich and Newcastle for that matter were going to win.

Playing against teams who only had pride to play for.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Looking forward to next season now, here's who I reckon will leave over the summer!

Camp - Only a short term thang.
Barnett - Not good enough for PL, quality in the Championship
Ayala - Go lay on someone elses physio table.
Ward - Out of contract, off to Forest one would think.
Tierney - Again another Championship player really.
Surman - Useless
Fox - Seemingly out the door, although 50/50 really.
Korey Smith/Tom Adayemi - Not really sure bout these two, loans again probs.
Jackson - Good lad, but again not good enough

Maybe see Rudd/Steer/Butterfield leave on loans too

[Guest]

Good win for you lads Olly, gutted that we've been on the beach for the last month

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

GO ON THE YOOF!

3-1 UP ON THE NIGHT, 4-1 ON AGGREGATE, BRINGING IT HOME!

"IT'S COMING HOME, IT'S COMING HOME, IT'S COMING, THE FA YOUTH CUP IS COMING HOME!"

[Duty281]

Lump yer money on Norwich to win the Premiership in about five years then!

[Corporalhumblebucket]

We've all felt Olly's pain during the season, and are relieved that his persistence (going to away match at Stoke ) has been rewarded....

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Haha Corporal deep down I was always sure we'd stay up!

Time to build and kick on next season...

[NickisBHAFC]

Olly ill be announcing your new name tomorrow.

Any ideas from anyone, PM me

[Fernando]

In Revenge Norwich will sign Bridcutt

[NickisBHAFC]

Bridcutt can do better than Norwich IMO. However he 100% deserves a Prem club, doesn't deserve to stay with the load of crap at the AMEX.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

At least Bridcutt would get pretty much guaranteed first team football here.

And come on Nando, I was called that before!

[Fernando]

It was a great name tbf

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

BTW can I just point out that I've been spot on with 2 of my predos so far.

Norwich got 40 pts and Prem safety, Brighton failed in the playoffs.

Now for Poyet to leave, and Bridcutt to come to the Nodge, and I'm officially winning the lottery soon

[NickisBHAFC]

No, you said Brighton would end Mid Table before the thread got locked.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

No, you said Brighton would end Mid Table before the thread got locked.

Ok but 4 out of 5 wouldn't be bad

[NickisBHAFC]

Not good enough

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Not good enough

Bit like Brighton's playoff campaign eh

[Amy]

Just gotten in from getting back from London
Great win for the youth team against a very good chelsea team to lift the cup for the first time in 30 years.

In other news the new home kit is revealed at mid day, I hear its yellow and green

[ncfc_Tooze]

So the new home kit is out and as usual its launch is accompanied by a video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0ehqlhfF4s

Picture of kit

Spoiler:

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Love that

[sodhat]

Do you really, or are you just a loyal fan?

The keepers' kit looks ok, but the regular home kit looks like it was designed by colourblind pre-schoolers.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

I hated this past one, far too similar to the one before it.

This one is out there, it's dividing opinion, I like it

[GSC]

Good god that is horrible

[Ent]

It's a football kit, they are hardly the leading fashion item.

Nothing wrong with it.

[NickisBHAFC]

Good god that is horrible

This.

[NickisBHAFC]

Olly your name will be changed to

Ipswich Town fan.

[GSC]

Good god that is horrible

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Well that is boringly predictable

[GSC]

I'd go with 'Being a Norwich fan makes it hard to compensate for small genitals'

[NickisBHAFC]

i like that.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Norwich City FC ‏@NorwichCityFC
TRANSFER NEWS: We will have some player news for you at approximately 5pm... #ncfc #yellowarmy

[ncfc_Tooze]

Someone leaving I reckon Olly
would love it to be signing two though

[GSC]

Or a contract renewal

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

I reckon it's Garrido signing permanently after his loan

[GSC]

The tension is killing me

[GSC]

I reckon it's Garrido signing permanently after his loan

decent guess

[Crimey]

Called it.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Thought it would be.

Good stuff, he's been good this season, good lad as well. Would imagine we'll bring another LB in to replace Tierney and provide actual competition

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Citeh away today.

Doesn't matter, don't really care whether we win or lose.

Just hope it's a good game

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Norwich City FC ‏@NorwichCityFC
. @NorwichCityFC starting 11 - Ruddy; R.Martin, Whittaker, Johnson, Howson, Snodgrass, Holt (C), Pilkington, Hoolahan, Garrido, R.Bennett.

No Bassong, being rested. Our record without him makes for particularly poor reading (15 goals conceded in 3 games lol)

[Guest]

What's he being rested for?
