How much do these things matter to you as a fan? 10:19 - Jul 12 with 2065 views | WarkTheWarkITFC | Stolen from another forum. Really interesting how much fans disagreed when the points were added up. If you had to allocate a total of 50 points to the following (giving no more than 25 points to any category: - Winning (no matter how it's achieved) - Playing attractive football - Making big money signings - Developing youth players - Being a club that neutrals admire For me it would be: - Winning (no matter how it's achieved) - 10 - Playing attractive football - 20 - Making big money signings - 0 - Developing youth players - 15 - Being a club that neutrals admire - 5 | |

Yep. Football is meaningless without getting the brexit papers signed. | |

How much do these things matter to you as a fan? on 10:30 - Jul 12 with 1961 views | J2BLUE | - Winning (no matter how it's achieved) - 20 - Playing attractive football - 15 - Making big money signings - 0 - Developing youth players - 10 - Being a club that neutrals admire - 5 I'm sure some people put big money signings but I can't see the point. Developing a youth player to become as good as a big money signing is far more satisfying and the fans have more of a connection. Could Liverpool have signed anyone who could become as loved as Gerrard? Noble at West Ham? Madness. I'd be quite happy to see transfer fees crash. I was watching SSN Transfer Show (as up its own arse as you can imagine) and the presenter said "Arsenal fans have made the point to us that if Arsenal can't afford Zaha, Stan Kroenke can and they've got a point". Sickeningly entitled. I know we have the same here with Evans but it is a bit different. Too many fans would be happy to see their club''s future risked to be higher on the Sky 'money spent' table. | |

Being a club that neutrals admire is a nice way to say they see you as harmless! | | | |

Wanting to play the 'right' way is a bonus is you can do it but I'd choose Mick and the Championship over Hurst and Lambert with a bit better football any day of the week as that means we are getting some results and something to actually build on (one way or another). | |

Essentially this, but 10 points to 'developing youth players' and none to 'being a club thet neutrals admire'. | |

Nor could I care less if people admire us, that tends to be reserved for clubs who tap it about nicely but never threaten to actually win anything. Actually it probably comes down to living in Norwich and them being obsessed by the idea that everyone loves them because they're plucky underdogs or something. I'd rather have my own pride in grinding out 1-0's in L1 than earning the validation of PL plastics by losing nicely. [Post edited 12 Jul 2019 11:36]

I'd love to play shlt and beat teams considering what happened last season | |

If we can do that playing semi-decent football with a few kids in the squad then great. But at the end of the day it's the results that matter. | | | |
