    If it’s Dorries, I suggest you open with “Woke EFL trying to cancel Derby County”.  You should probably mention we have a statue that might get pulled down if we get liquidated too ?

    Rumoured to be a dozen wanting out from Old Trafford so plenty to choose from - Ronaldo, Fernandes, Lingard, Martial etc ..... knowing our luck we'll end up with Maguire (or worse still, Fred).

    No wonder he wants £40m from us when they're doing stuff like this.

    I don't actually agree with this, having worked for charities my whole career.
    Many societies are set up to speak on behalf of a wider community than their actual membership, from political parties down.
    The whole point of a democratic vehicle is to allow access to as many members as want to be involved, that way the organisation acheives as much democracy as it can. As it grows it can then do more to reach out to wider and wider groups of people. 
    I think Punjabi Rams have a structure and elections, I know the local supporters clubs do. I suspect most of the other "representative" groups don't, I know for example that this was a role thrust upon our Forum that @David felt very uncomfortable with. And as for the democracy of letting a man with a flag "represent" supporters! Sure Nick didn't ask for that, either.
    I cannot for the life of me understand why supporters want to pour scorn over the one organisation whose very existence is set up to be the very thing that they all want - a voice in how the club is run.
    I'm with @Simmo’s left foot, if more of us had got off our backsides earlier, then we might have been a force to be reckoned with when we were needed. But we aren't  - yet.
     I  have joined because I want to change that. What are you doing about it?

    The best advice I can give is, if you dont want to see silly things said on Twitter, then don't go on Twitter.

    He is nothing like Alonso. He's actually a well respected business man. That type of content? He made a joke on Twitter, he wasn't goaded into anything. It really isn't that deep, you're over analysing.

    I get why fans are sceptical. It’s healthy, especially given the chancers and tyre kickers we've had so far.
    But for those comparing this guy to Alonso - do you not think the admins are doing a better job than Mel at finding appropriate bidders? I’ve not seen anything to show I shouldn’t trust them yet. They'll have already seen proof of funds, reportedly to the tune of £150m+.
    Also, for those questioning net worth, aren't Norwich's owners worth relative peanuts?

    If fans want a sustainable football club you don't need a billionaire. 
    Although being sustainable and competitive isn't that easy, still not sure the patience is there for that kind of model either if I'm honest.
    We'll see, but I think a lot of fans don't actually have any real interest in being sustainable, just frustrated how money has been spent recently and looking to avoid a repeat of the situation we are in now. Understandable.
    The ambition to be in the Premier League is still there, attendances reflect that and I won't deny it, I'm one of them. I want to see this club in the top flight and won't apologise for that. 
    Although the need for a better structure in place to identify the players needed to build a team capable of a promotion push is obvious.
    Mel wasn't a billionaire and on reflection didn't need to spend the money he did, so whilst the idea of a billionaire sounds all sexy and exciting, it's not what is really needed at this club right now.

    Animal is a Ram reacted to BaaLocks in St Clod’s Day   
    As a friend said to me over the weekend "Norwich are going to take your record this year" I wanted to suggest the initiation of St Claude's Day, the date on which no club can undertake (or equal) our points tally of eleven points. Named in honour of a player more symbolic of our lack of preparedness, ability, and commitment than any other (a statement of recognition in itself) in that 07/08 season the race is now on to predict on what day it will fall this season.
    In previous years St Claude's Day has fallen on the following weekends, last season's Covid affected schedule aside it has only three times made it past New Years Day.
    2020/21: 4th March (Sheffield United)
    2019/20: 22nd December (Watford)
    2018/19: 27th February (Huddersfield)
    2017/18: 13th December (Swansea)
    2016/17: 19th December (Sunderland)
    2015/16: 18th January (Aston Villa)
    2014/15: 29th December (Leicester)
    2013/14: 26th December (Sunderland)
    2012/13: 2nd January (QPR)
    2011/12: 31st December (Blackburn)
    2010/11: 27th November (Wolves and West Ham)
    2009/10: 19th December (Portsmouth)
    2008/9: 8th November (Spurs)
    So, on what day will St Claude's Day fall on this year? I predict it will be the fourth time it has made it past New Years Day but I still think last week in February our record will be safe for one more season.

    Bit of credit where it’s due to Steve Nicholson who got his article out before anyone else naming Chris Kirchner.
