'The day we got our club back' etc

Actually I can understand this sentiment.

For the last five months at least Norwich City has been run by Glenn Roeder. He has shipped out those he didn't like, including one of our all-time greats (Hucks) and one of our favourite sons (Curo). He has brought in a staff of his own with no City connections (mainly recruited from his own failed past regimes) and blindly insisted that he knows best and inferred, in my opinion, that those of us who have learned what we know about football from events in Norfolk over the past however many years, actually know nothing.

What that has led to has been last Tuesday night in all its aspects.

Yesterday we had a true City man in charge. We had Cureton (whose name Roeder could not even bring himself to say on Tuesday night) back where he belongs, we were without the so-called 'best staff in the business' milling around making the players feel tense, pressured and uncomfortable and we got an old fashioned Carrow Road atmosphere and performance.

The crowd made a lot of noise, backed the team and had a good time. Isn't that what our club used to be about?

So yes, maybe we did 'get our club back' in a sense.
