    Ricoh Arena - parliamentary debate

    I bent his ear about it 15 months ago when he and I were speaking at an event together in Bournemouth. He was a bit surprised to be asked about it on the south coast. Anyway his view at that time was broadly that the council would rather the club went bust than they should deal with Sisu.

    Baker praises Carsley before Pressley arrives...

    How many times do you hear a Man Utd player refer to their boss as "Fergie"? A player referring to the manager as "Carso" in public definitely connotes a lack of authority. At the very least it shows that he, and the players, knew that Carlsley was not going to be the next manager. Baker was...

    Confused by new signing

    Fisher and Waggott opened negotiations for McGoldrick when Thorn was in charge, signed him when Shaw was the caretaker manager. Carsley may have been given a veto role in whether we sign a particular centre back of those available, and he might have a say over McDonalds recall- but don't read...

    Dan makes it onto football focus

    All a bit ironic that he's being held up for ridicule by the very radio statio and the very commentary team who 2 years ago failed to notice that a Palace goal against us had been disallowed for 40 minutes last season and continually said we were losing when we were drawing.

    Video Video : Norwich 1 Coventry 3 FA Cup 3rd round 1999-2000
