Chris Martin – ‘Let’s start a new run’
I couldn’t have put it better myself.
For in the wake of our first defeat since October, I know I’m certainly not hovering my hand over the panic button. Monday morning always brings City chat with like-minded collegaues of mine, and we were all very much in the same mind-set; It’s a blip, it was likely to happen, let’s move on and forget about it.
Now, it’s all about the bounce back ability. (Ahh you gotta love Ian Dowie. Or not actually.)

Ok, so the defeat at Millwall took the gloss off it a bit, but it’s important to acknowledge that pre-match, Paul Lambert was again named League One Manager of the Month, after City claimed six wins in as many league games, during the month of January.
City started the new year with a 1-0 away win at Wycombe, followed by a 3-1 home win against Exeter. Then came that convincing 5-0 win at Colchester, before a ten-man City fought their way to a 1-0 win at Carrow Road against Brentford. Next came Walsall, where a late fight back secured a 2-1 win, before City finished the month, with a 2-1 win at home to Hartlepool.
Also nominated were Millwall’s Kenny Jackett, Geraint Williams of Leyton Orient, and Swindon Town’s Danny Wilson.

There was much interest today surrounding Asian businessman, Tony Fernandes – who is boss of F1 team Lotus - and a potential investment into our club.
The connection? well, the Lotus factory is based in Norfolk – Hingham to be specific – and Fernandes is believed to have visited Carrow Road on his trips to the county. Mike Gascoyne, his technical director at Lotus, was at the game against Hartlepool in Saturday, along with the BBC’s F1 presenter Jake Humphrey, who himself is a big Canaries fan. (so let’s put 2+2 together and make?….)

£23 million debt. It’s the situation that City find themselves in at present, but rather than shirk the questions surrounding it, the board have instead come out and given a very honest explanation of finances. It makes for interesting reading too.
So….what exactly has been going on?
BACK IN 2003.…
We start back in the 2003-04 season when City had £2.7 million in cash in the bank and debts of £18m.
Since then, the club has generated £43.475m in ticket sales – 40pc of which are subject to some kind of concession or other.
