With a rocket and hair dryer in his armoury Master Neil may just be what the Norwich doctor ordered

19th January 2015 By Rick Waghorn 2 Comments

Neil is not someone afraid to throw the kids in early – which is one, big reason Saints are where they are. And why Master McGrandles might have some fun before this season is out.

What next for Phelan? If not the top job where does that leave Sir Alex’s former right-hand man?

7th January 2015 By Rick Waghorn 7 Comments

Should Phelan prove to be the chosen one, then his arrival was what Adams might have feared all along – that he was a manager in waiting; that Adams himself was a dead man walking. One more slip and he would be out.

Much to ponder, not least how to retain the hunger of those who still enjoy the Premier League riches

29th December 2014 By Rick Waghorn 21 Comments

The argument against Norwich is that they are seventh due to an inexperienced manager whose squad is under-performing given the ‘obvious’ talent that sits in that dressing room.
And yet there are vastly more experienced managers than Adams sitting in lowlier positions.

Adams breathes a sigh of a relief as Howson’s lone strike takes all three points at the DW

6th December 2014 By Rick Waghorn 1 Comment

“It was a professional performance from the players,” added the City chief. “We got the tactics right – and we got the team right…

City with a fresh mountain to climb and ‘Team Neil’ under pressure from all angles

30th November 2014 By Rick Waghorn 12 Comments

If a rocket was delivered at the break it didn’t fire too many people into life in the second-half. And come the final whistle – as Norwich made it just the one win in the last ten – the reaction of the paying public was wholly predictable.

Phelan or no Phelan, City still offering more questions than answers as two, big points slide away

22nd November 2014 By Tom Haylett 6 Comments

“If we’re scoring three goals at home, we should be winning games,” said Martin afterwards, whose own special strike deserved more than a point.

O’Neil the unlucky one, but just by grasping the short straw shows he is going to be one for the trenches

10th November 2014 By Rick Waghorn 7 Comments

As another international break looms, there is undoubtedly a large degree of navel-gazing afoot. Whether it is common to all clubs in this age of instant gratification and social media outrage, but poison and recrimination is never too far from the surface Carrow Road way.

A twist of fate and Mr Adams finds himself with a midfield combo that may just be the way ahead

2nd November 2014 By Rick Waghorn 6 Comments

It is funny how such slices of ‘luck’ can play their part in potentially determining the course of a season. Equally, it is a risky business running to snap judgements on the back of one game.

In the digital age how do you take your #NCFC news? PC, laptop, tablet, mobile? Mind if we join you?

MFW has chugged along like the rest of us for the last eight years, recording every click, purchase, impression and occasional invoice. Eight years worth of local online advertising data. Enough to demonstrate there is still money in local advertising.

Grabban provides breath of fresh air and Adams deserves credit for spotting the desire of one on the up

1st September 2014 By Rick Waghorn 5 Comments

How do you replicate Championship-style hunger in the golden feeding trough of the Premier League – without resorting to the kind of pay-days a Loic Remy would demand to travel up the A11 on a full-time basis?

Filed Under: Column, Rick Waghorn

Still early days, but too much more of the same and for how long will the Faithful keep faithful

11th August 2014 By Rick Waghorn 4 Comments

Getting back into the Land of Milk and Honey at the first time of asking was never going to be easy and, to my mind, today’s events might serve as a ‘welcome’ reality check for anyone who thought otherwise.

Filed Under: Column, Rick Waghorn

In the second tier football remains a simple game. And if the players play for Neil, maybe, just maybe…

5th August 2014 By Rick Waghorn 2 Comments

City fans can sleep easy knowing that no-one individual is going to single-handedly rip them apart with football off a different planet – making the ‘investment’ of say £100 in a day trip to Anfield worthless in the space of ten, first-half minutes.

Filed Under: Column, Rick Waghorn

Arry did the deed by using those who had been there and done it. Adams may not have that option

27th May 2014 By Rick Waghorn 9 Comments

Harry built himself an Old Lags XI. Literally in the case of Joey Barton. And Richard Dunne is no angel. He has had his moments. But was the rock upon which Rangers’ return was built.

If Adams’ Class of 2013 can deliver him a goalscorer, or wonders can be worked in the transfer market…

24th May 2014 By Rick Waghorn 6 Comments

Given what awaits in Adams’ in-tray in terms of player exits, every day that passes with a whiffy apple sat in his Colney barrel is a day that the club can do without.

The lessons to be learned from 2013-2014… Lesson One, Mr Chairman: Leave your brain at home…

3rd May 2014 By Rick Waghorn 12 Comments

They have been way too sensible for their own good. And, I suspect, that’s going to be a hard charge for someone with the clear business acumen of an Alan Bowkett to swallow. He has to learn to leave his business brain behind when he walks through the door of a professional football club.

Does City history need to be re-visited on the back of events at Villa Park? Where has Lambert’s Midas touch gone?

17th April 2014 By Rick Waghorn 5 Comments

Here’s another question. If Lambert and Villa were to part company this summer, which of the two men would be the first to be re-employed? Who would get the bigger gig?

Filed Under: Column, Rick Waghorn

If City go down, what’s the charge to be laid at the board’s door? Last sane people left in the asylum?

20th March 2014 By Rick Waghorn 10 Comments

To succeed in the English Premier League, you have to take your business brain out of gear; forget everything that 40 years of commercial life has taught you and throw enough silly money at someone and someone’s agent to make this thing work…

The heart of a scrapper like Andy Hughes may be the injection Norwich need right now

12th February 2014 By Rick Waghorn 16 Comments

He might not have been able to do this – or that. He might more often than not plant the ball in Row Z when it came to that or a simple pass. But if the next three months in the life of Norwich City Football Club can be likened to a bar room brawl, I would put a pound to a penny that Andy Hughes would be one of the last men standing…

With Foxy and Wessi centre stage Hughton has some big calls to make in the days ahead

5th January 2014 By Rick Waghorn 11 Comments

As Gary rightly points out, you put a Fox in against a first choice Fulham with a Parker or a Sidwell in yer face for 90 minutes and he hasn’t the muscularity to shrug one or either off and then play the telling ball.

Filed Under: Column, Rick Waghorn

With January almost upon us Hughton would be well advised to put a Parker or a Nolan on his shopping list

31st December 2013 By Rick Waghorn 4 Comments

Nigel Worthington’s last move in the transfer market was arguably one of his greatest – Dion Dublin had character seeping out of every pore. Now look at Fulham and Scotty Parker; West Ham and Kevin Nolan.

Not a #NCFC window for the ages … instead, one that’s likely to only include ‘outs’ http://dlvr.it/Sj2B30
