  1. I mean if ever the writers of Partridge are looking for new material...
  2. https://www.edp24.co.uk/things-to-do/20816040.revealed-norwich-beat-milton-keynes-become-home-alan-partridge/
  3. I vaguely remember Coogan saying in an interview he wanted it to be somewhere fairly inoffensive. Newcastle, Liverpool, Manchester, etc are "cool" sort of places with a fairly territorial population, so it wouldn't work. I think he toyed with Devon, but Norwich is generally though of as a bit bland...
  4. Can I just shock you? I like Norwood, in spite of what I said earlier... Not even I'd compare him to that Wembley '94 sitter missing, own goal scoring, penalty missing, shit manager muppet...
  5. Or Radio 4 cassettes from before the TV show, if you've got anything to play them on...
  6. There's a spoon in the bathroom, but I've no cause to use it...
  7. Given he was on Gogglebox once and it turned out he didn't know who The Clash were, I'm guessing they didn't win...
  8. I almost wish I had never discovered it, so I could discover it all again. You're in a privileged position. You're about to discover probably the last timeless, genius of a character...
  9. It's hard to say. If every Latics fan went, it'd probably be about 10k. If we get there, I'm intending to get as much family/mates with an interest along as possible as it's a one off. If everyone did that, we'd probably hit 15k+..
  10. Tip of the hat to Paddy. That Paul Beavers consolation v Gillingham a Latics Mind worldie..
  11. I haven't seen anyone say it's a lie, I don't think... I haven't read anyone (certainly in this thread) moaning about him not celebrating or changing his Twitter picture either (neither of which I give a shit about, FWIW). That just seems to be the go-to response anyone comes up with anytime they don't like Norwood being criticised.
  12. Is that what you read that when Eastenders isn't on?
  13. Aw, it's great banter.. I forget what a sensitive bunch the Norwood fan-boys are. As said elsewhere, gentle disagreement does some to have been and gone on here. A shame..
  14. You are right, there. He's got to play the game a little bit though - even if he couldn't give a shit about collecting the award and he did have an important appointment. "It's not a case of "not being arsed", I had an important appointment to attend, so apologies to those concerned" sounds better than "Don't bother picking me for man of the match in future, if that's going to be your take".
  15. Agreed, but then everyone played well yesterday.. there's been plenty of games where he and the rest of the team haven't been. If he's guaranteed to get 20 again next season, then fine. Hopefully we'll get as many penalties (which do count, blah blah blah - but must professional players should score most of the penalties they take..). As I say, something has never sat right. Some people see it, some people don't..
  16. Had an important appointment at 3:30, accordingto his twitter. Doesn't want to be considered again, if it's being suggested he can't be arsed.. Stats can't be disputed and a talented player, but something has never sat right about him here. Wouldn't be surprised - or too disappointed - if both parties agree a parting of ways in the summer...
  17. Lundstram Man of the Match for me. 9/10 performance. A different player. We were the better team and deserved to win. Created more chances and didn't do a lot wrong.
  18. If the players are struggling with motivation, there's something seriously wrong. They can still - unbelievably - be history makers this season. Get the club their first promotion since 1991. It'll probably be the only (or last) time in their careers they can achieve something.. They just have to give their all for the next 8 (hopefully 11) games and then they can be pleased with themselves, enjoy their summer and get contracts elsewhere on the back of the promotion, if they so desire...
  19. Feeling a bit more optimistic today, but can see us doing something daft like going 2-0 up and end up losing 3-2. Play a spine of Hudson, Hobson, Sheron and Fondop. Pick names out of a hat after that..
  20. I'm not sure that's a thing anymore.. Feels like it'll have an air of predictability about it. 0-3.
