If the South Stand can hold 3k, double tier all seated with safe standing lower section, that's got to be what, 5k? Yes, but, standing capacity would be reduced... That's the point. I think there would be a kerfuffle if people currently standing could lose out on their places with a reduced standing capacity. They'll get used to it. We're slowly heading towards an all seater Stadium.

Unless it's a double tier. I can't see there being safe standing in a top tier... So it would at the very least reduce standing capacity at the North end of the ground. If the South Stand can hold 3k, double tier all seated with safe standing lower section, that's got to be what, 5k?

I'd never really thought about it that way until yesterday. Is it likely that the Thatchers would be safe standing with the ground redevelopments? I don't think we need worry about that for a while. Personally I'd be leaving the Thatchers End until last. Developing it could actually lower the capacity. Unless it's a double tier.

That entire area will never, ever sort itself out and we should leave well alone and let them get on with it. If we 'let them get on with it' then hundreds of thousands, maybe millions of people will be slaughtered over religious/cultural differences. An even larger number will flee the region and so most of those that are left won't be classed as 'sensible moderates'... Isn't that what's happening anyway? This isn't new.

It appears there are a fair few Norwich fans that don't care whether they lose or win, as they are dreading a trip to Anfield where they have not won in the last 18 visits and that includes a few thrashings. Unlike us who haven't lost at Anfield for over 25 years. Interesting to see whether Norwich players hearts are really in this game. Of course they'll be up for it. FA Cup at Anfield, who wouldn't be?

So, draw after 90 mins, assume we go to 30 mins extra time and then penalties?

The new pitch, so I'm told, cost £250k, to put under soil heating, guessing at £1mil. Think we're pushing the wealth of our new Owner a bit too far. The football league could pay for it with the millions swilling around in their piggy bank. That's reserved for the Premiership.

Yes all clubs,surely can't be that expensive,and obviously only needs using for a month or two a year,anyone got a clue the actual cost of installation? The new pitch, so I'm told, cost £250k, to put under soil heating, guessing at £1mil. Think we're pushing the wealth of our new Owner a bit too far.

It's farcical in the year 2024 that all clubs don't have undersoil heating. I clearly remember a game postponed at highbury as the terrace was dangerous,but the pitch was perfect. Crazy money spent on transfers,but the basics ignored. All Clubs? Including us?

That's got to be a Ref inspection before hand surely? You can't start a game knowing conditions could be like that half way through the game. Unless we're 3 nil down. On the other hand you can't call a game off if the pitch is playable at 7:45pm? What if they did but then it was still playable at 10pm? Although you hope there would be a pitch inspection tomorrow morning and then a further one in the afternoon. Isn't there some sort of 3 hour pre kick off time inspection rule? You've got to consider this is Norwich we're talking about, not exactly just down the road. Plus, isn't it also about fan safety?

Forecast -2c at kick off, -3c at full time. They might start the match but I cannot see if being completed That's got to be a Ref inspection before hand surely? You can't start a game knowing conditions could be like that half way through the game. Unless we're 3 nil down.

Breaking news, let's see if this is as significant as the initial headlines imply. "The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) says it has noted an incident in waters off Yemen. It says a vessel was hit from above by a missile near the Yemeni city of Aden." That entire area will never, ever sort itself out and we should leave well alone and let them get on with it.

If koh Samui is a prison it's a very nice one bags , might be a shutter island type of thing going on though.. Heh heh, you enjoy Chap. All the best.

Have to agree I went to Norwich with my uncle and he said he stood out a mile due to him being the only one in blue who didn’t put in the effort If he’s static and Martin we know won’t run all game, we can look laboured up top Hope he proves me wrong Got a feeling Azza will be off in the next week UTG This. He is utter, utter garbage. He on loan or did we buy?
