Holt reaffirms quit desire

Unlucky Olly

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

I feel really sorry for Norwich, with Lambert and Holt going. There appears to be problems behind the scenes at the football club.

I felt like this on the 13th of May after we had beaten Aston Villa 2-0 on the final day of the season.
Now on the 1st of June I feel like this

[Crimey]

I imagine Holt will end up with Lambert at Villa.

Without wanting to be too pre-emptive, Norwich could be relegated next year. The core of the club isn't been torn out.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

It's not looking good for us or Swansea.

[GSC]

I don't think theres a problem at Norwich persay. Holt wants a payday and Lambert think he has a better opportunity at Villa

[bretmeharty]

Start of a decline maybe, its going to be a tough season.

[Josiah Maiestas]

Swansea will be fine unless their players become too greedy for money, Norwich on the other hand have punched above their weight this season and will probably settle around 14th-16th in the league next time.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Sky Sports ‏@SkySports
Sky Sports understands #Norwich City have enquired about #Cardiff City manager Malky #Mackay

[GSC]

Also heard Lennon mentioned though Celtic would say no.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

So you don't think Swansea have punched above their weight this season? And that they will somehow be fine and Norwich will decline? Swansea are in just as much trouble as we are

[Josiah Maiestas]

Not if they keep the same players, if their players are cherry picked by the big clubs then they will go down, but if not I can see them doing better than you this season. Holt and Lambert is much more important to you than Sigurdsson and Rodgers is to Swansea

Yes I agree Holt and Lambert are more important to us. But I think there is more chance of Rodgers nicking players from Swansea then there is Lambert from Norwich. Rodgers has already been linked with Joe Allen, Sigurdsson, Sinclair for Liverpool

[Josiah Maiestas]

Swansea will charge huge prices like Spurs did for Modric and Bale and nobody will leave for a penny less than they value them.

Norwich City FC ‏@NorwichCityFC
Defender @AdamDrury78 to leave Club after agreeing a two-year deal with Leeds United

YOU'LL NEVER BEAT THE DRURY

[westisbest]

We'll take Hoolahan off you.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

We'll take Hoolahan off you.

Don't think so mate

Wes loves Norwich, he even stayed when we got relegated from the Championship to League 1, don't see why he would want to go to an ageing squad

[westisbest]

Surely he'll miss Lambert to much.

[Josiah Maiestas]

Norwich will go down when faulty Holty gets injured in pre season.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Yeah cos Grant Holt is the be all and end all for Norwich this next season

[Amy]

ummmmmmmmmmm ok

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Can't really see it myself Mrs T lol. He wouldn't be first team here anyway.

This is a bit of good news - http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11709/7835118/Holt-set-for-Hughton-talks

Chrissy Hughton will talk Grant round. I don't think Holt really wants to leave, just his agent as I have said all along

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Norwich City FC ‏@NorwichCityFC
City goalkeeper John Ruddy has signed a new four-year deal with the Canaries, with the Club having a further one-year option #ncfc

Yes Big John

[Amy]

what a legend

[ncfc_Tooze]

According to this Rudd is out of contract in 4 days time
http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/declan-rudd/profil/spieler_74088.html

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Interesting one.

I have always said Steer has way more potential than Rudd but I would be surprised if we let Rudd go on a free. He could command a fee from a Championship or League 1 side. Also seen we have been linked with Butland which would be a great signing

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Norwich City FC ‏@NorwichCityFC
City have signed Scottish international and former Rangers defender Steven Whittaker on a 4-year deal subject to international clearance

[Kay Fabe]

Do you know much ab out the player Olly?

Can be quite decent going forward but isn't very good defensively, can be quite lackadaisicalat times

[Crimey]

Suits Norwich then who last season were decent going forward but suspect at the back.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

That's the way we play. We are a much better attacking team, so might as well give it a go rather than try and defend which we are pants at tbh

[Crimey]

I agree.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Crimey as a Pool fan you have experienced our shocking defending in your 3-0 win at Carrow Road. Elliott Ward literally defended like a schoolboy that day.

But then you must have enjoyed Grant Holt's header at The Kop as well

The thing I most remember from the game was the sheer number of times your defenders tried to tackle but it just bounced off our players leg and you were beaten.

What the 1-1 at Anfield?? How you didn't score a second that day I'll never know lol. Ruddy's save from Suarez at the end was unreal

And in the 3-0 at Carrow Road our defenders didn't get close enough to tackle you

[Amy]

Not Norwich news but

Lowestoft town are pleased to announce the signing of Ex England C defender Dan Gleeson from Luton Town.



werent we once upon a time linked with him

[Mat]

Holt has signed a new 3 year contract. Olly has just collapsed in tears of joy.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

BREAKING NEWS: Grant Holt signs new 3 year deal and former Barnsley man Jacob Butterfield signs - more to follow on

[ncfc_Tooze]

Dave Watson has come in as goalkeeping coach
with him being England goalkeeper coach too thats not going to hurt Ruddy's future in the england squad being watched by him everyday

Or it might destroy his chances.

[ncfc_Tooze]

I suppose it may do Crimey

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Applications are out for the Fulham game. Hope I get tickets

[ncfc_Tooze]

going to pick one up and fill in tommorow when I go up

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

£40 it will cost for me if I go by coach!!!! Outrageous

[Thomond]

£40 for transport and match ticket? I would have thought that was pretty good? If it's for the ticket it's a bit high!

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

£40 for transport and match ticket? I would have thought that was pretty good? If it's for the ticket it's a bit high!

Well the coach cost £20 and the ticket is £20. But I am an under 21. And considering my season ticket for Norwich is only £200, that equates to around £11 a match. So £20 to go to Fulham seems a bit steep. Especially when I only paid £33 to go to Arsenal last season

[Thomond]

I paid around €50 to go to an away match with 25 for the Bucs 25 for the ticket bit of a rip. It's usually around €40 to go to away matches as an U-18, which is around £30 I think.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

We lost to Hertha Berlin 3-2

Elliott Ward started

[GSC]

I got a train from London to Leicester for 8 quid

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Surely that should be mentioned in the

'London to Leicester train thread'

[GSC]

make one and I shall. However there was talk of transport to London :P

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Celtic 0-1 Norwich

Grant Holt 89 mins
