Look at the table. We're 13th, and unbeaten for 11 games, without speinding on new players. And it't mostly down to Roeder. I’d hit upon this thread by mistake, and found it quite amusing.

Not just because of the ever increasing influence of money on teh game, but because of the inevitable hasty sacking of managers that is associated with that influence. you now not only have a huge gap between the top 4 and all else. you now have a widening gap between the mid-table sides in the premiership and those in the bottom 6. doesn t bode well for the prospect of interesting competition, or good football to watch. what is going on at norwich is scary in that it reflects what the previous post said, that “football outside the big 4 is dead.” the cost of getting relegated, and teh consequences ,seem to be getting more dire with each season. it seems inconceivable that 3 seasons ago norwich were in the premiership, and now they will have to fight to remauin in the championship. leeds perhaps a better example. how is it possible for these nasty declines to take place?

The reason I felt that Roeder was reasonable in his comments on this occasion, was because the player in question - funnily enough, ex-West Ham - was out of the door the next day. In normal circumstances managers should not single out players for criticism, but, in his present condition, John Hartson aint a normal circumstance... Fair points, bad history.
