[edit] NPOV dispute

Added the NPOV dispute because I'm concerned that this article is slowly turning into a soapbox for disgruntled Norwich City fans. Wikipedia articles are not the place to voice frustrations about a manager, there are fans websites for that. Wikipedia articles are supposed to be fact-based and neutral point-of-view.

Absolutely agree. I started this article some time back and hoped that others might add insights into Worthington's earlier career (which, as a Norwich fan, I know little about). However, people just seem to chuck throw-away jibes on the end rather than adding anything worthwhile to the body of the article. 69.140.65.251 03:18, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Also in agreement. About a third of this page seems to be publicity for the Worthy Out campaign. A few suggestions:

"finished a massive 13 points off the play-offs" - remove massive, add finished 9th place?

"time he barbed comments" - I believe his comments were to call the fans left in the stadium true supporters rather than attacking those who left.

"but most online supporters' forums are almost unanimous in their opposition" - remove this altogether, there are numerous debates on the subject at present with both sides.

"capitulation to Preston" - put the 2-0 score, rather than capitulation.

"dire performances during" - POV?

I've made a few changes, made it less POV, and I'll remove the notice for the time being until someone else adds it back in. Any comments? Budgiekiller 20:00, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Much better. --Dweller 22:08, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Coolio. So what now for the poor old budgies? Even the Town have overtaken them in the league...!! Budgiekiller 18:57, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
