Do we think Darkos had a wake up call to how strong this league is?

Hopefully

Might have woke up to our ordinary we are. Don Cellino cannot keep building his own team and then blaming the coach when we lose.lets get back to having a manager he buys the players its his team if he fails the chairman sacks him.

Can't really agree micky. Despite the recent results I actually think we have a decent squad. And of course, managers never buy players, only choose who they want and ask the owner to buy them. I'd be surprised if that doesn't happen with Darko. I'm sure him and Salerno will get together and discuss players they need or want - even the Hock chose some players (apparently)
Agree0

Who did the hock buy.
Agree0
Disagree0
Nobody micky, he was the coach. But he did say on more than one occasion that he had recommended a player to come in, and there was the recent article where a player had said Hock was going to have the say in whether he was signed or not. So it's not simply a case of MC buying every player without consulting the coach

Point away is ok seeing we were battered most of game but still like rabbits in headlights! As I said before if we can stay in touch with top ten till xmas then maybe? But personely we ain't good enough to go up just to come down again rather get it right in this league first mot

Any one of us would have taken a point before the game. We should all be happy with the result.

Any reports from the game? Just looking at the stats 20 shots from NC 4 from LU with stats like that we are not going to win many games, I know NC have just come down and are one of the stronger teams but looks like we got a bit lucky tonight. would like to know how we played . If we lose on sat then its bye bye Darko.

I'd take a draw at Norwich any day of the week! Tony cottee must have had a packet on Norwich to win!

Listening to commentary. Sounds like we are hanging on for grim death. Norwich 14 shots, 6 on target. Leeds 2 shots none on target. Silvestre made a wonder save, Spent last 25 minutes giving ball away. I'll settle for a point as it stands

Tony cottee on ss. Very disappointed we equalised! You could hear it in his voice,!

Happy with the point, hard work to get it I think.

Yes, sounded like we were under the cosh as times, but also think we reorganised to keep them at bay at the end - and the home crowd booed, so we must have done something right

Come on Darko let's go for the throat tonight. Put out a young exciting attacking team and show you are not a negative coach. Give the boys their head and let's get at em win or lose, we are not expected to win as bookies have Norwich odds on and us 6-1. So let's show the doomsayers.

Silvestri, Byram, Bellusci, Pearce, Berardi, Austin, Bianchi, Mowatt, Adryan, Doukara, Antenucc
attacking team he puts out tonight. I am happy with it think it is our strongest. Maybe Austin for cook but that's it.
And before the Warnock fans jump up and down do your research Beradi has better stats much better than SW just because the guy made a couple of good tackles does not make up for the rest of the sh*t he normal y puts out. Beradi make more tackles, more forward yards more interceptions more balls won and makes more passes including successful ones. So SW supporters let's keep your tongue in your mouth for a bit. (in 2h I could look a right person)

Loathed Norwich taking our better players so this one as added spice for me.
Come on Darko get the team working hard and pressing the ball and we may get something!
5 pts from play offs!
5pts from dropzone!!

So. If we go up this year and get how much?? Spend it on a few good players. Come back down. Get the parachute payment of how much?? Buy a couple more good players and be ready to stay up!? Or is the parachute payment on relegation calculated in eds $120,000 comment below! If it is an additional payment, i'm happy to go up and back down as long as the money is spent to make a better impact following year.

{Ed003's Note - £120m is including parachute payments.}
Still worth a bit of skydiving I reckon

Well, don't subscribe to the theory "too soon to go up", I think you have to grab your opportunities when they present themselves. apologies to the other 23 but I think we are the best equipped club in this league to survive in the premiership, can't see us coming straight back down. So, onwards and hopefully upwards
Agree0
Disagree0
Must admit, when I did my post, I'd forgotten about the millions you get if you go up (and if you come down again). I'm still stuck in the 70's
Agree0

Guys it is never too soon to go up, in life if a chance comes you take it as it may never happen again (or not for ages anyway).
It is a bit like saying it is not the right time to have a baby, we are not ready, to young, to poor, to busy etc etc. But if it happens you take the gift as you never know you may not get another chance.
PS just for the record I have a son, prob wasn't right time but what a great journey we all had!
I would take going up (oh the glory) and worry about next season, well next season, always worry about Leeds anyway so may as well do it in the prem!

A word of caution, some of the latest teams to receive parachute payments have been in free fall.

Tough game tonight after canaries knocked off too spot at the weekend, saying that as a team we should have worked on the defensive mistakes we made against millers.
Can't see us winning as my head says 2-1 but my heart says a fiver is going on Dakoura and 1-1 and a point would be a VERY good one :)

Given up predicting Andy! But I would say, I think we are capable of winning any game and I don't fear a stuffing like last season!
Agree0

Perfectly summed up Vid. We can win, or lose, any game these days depending on how we play - and while we are not scoring many goals I'm more confident we won't often get stuffed. (If that isn't a cue for a 9-0 defeat, I don't know what is lol)

Bit nervous about this one to be honest but if Lucy can bag 1 or 2 we may be tonights coupon buster. Hope that's not too negative just being honest!

I was being honest mate and greedy at the same time, Doukara n 1-1 is 66/1 and the bookies have us @ 11/2 just to win which is a great price. If we click we can beat anyone in this league and if we play like the second half at millers anyone could beat us ;)
