Mr B.Gunn in as manager at Norfolk's second side ... ?? Well done that board of directors and a big round of applause , it will probably spoil our fun at laughing at their demise and fall into the old 2nd or even older 3rd division...(What stupid names we now have for our different tiers of football) but it may prove the saving of the club as a whole.Perhaps the youth at the club may stand a chance of getting a fair crack at the first team now.
Mr K.Webb... now that was some real sense spoken in the Lynn News yesterday and it had me thinking why didn't he say all of this at the beginning of the season and not when the season is already basically written off. Has he had some big vision or a large board meeting to discuss what is happening on the pitch.I like what he is doing player wise.There is no point in keeping expensive players sitting in the stand or bench warming when you have too many better players in front of them.Ben Sedgemore had to be let go even if we did not have a replacement.His performances and commitment have been poor at best this season.I was a little sad to see Weaver go he has battled hard all season, giving blood when needed and when fit he has done a good job but there are now 4 centre halves in front of him and a couple of make shift right backs .. A real right back is just a pipe dream ..It was a common sense decision to release him.
Andy Johnson... a good short term signing if the guy has any fitness... he could make the difference between staying mid table and getting sucked into the relegation fight ..
Keeping it real that is what it is about,real budgets and real ambitions.... but this league is not as good as the management make out .. There are very few good sides just loads of average sides of which we are one of them... In how many leagues all over the world can you only get the equivalent of two wins from 9 games and still be in the same league position ..To me a perfect illustration of how poor the league is. We should be higher than we are . and the Webb youth vision should of been utilised at the beginning of the season not when the shit is hitting the fan ..He is talking the talk again to try and save his job now....
Praise where praise is due though ..I see the Youth keeper Norris thanking Keith for his help ... well done to Keith for his input and Good Luck to the lad with his England chance...
Bring on the Spartans... now what fuel does my car take ?????
