I don't think people are annoyed because we didn't win today or Vs Man City - it's down to the other results going so badly against us that the situation looks far bleaker than it did. Was always going to be a hard ask to survive, but today's games have made things harder by 10 fold

I can't see anything better than a 5-0 win to Liverpool. Get that done (and the FA Cup), and really knuckle down to blitz some points from the remaining games in a final fight.

We've got to remember we are likely to get thumped versus Man City and Liverpool so I think the look of the table after those games will be a good measure of our chances - whether those around us pick up lots of points during those games. Beating Palace tonight will be amazing but it might look tricky again after those two super hard games

That was a superb series. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Completely unrelatable to the modern game though in all but the basic rules.

Insightful. Thanks

Those taking the photos there are their "fans" getting into our areas. Can't think any Norwich fan would want to do that

I particularly enjoyed the Man Utd tourists behind the goal with all their phones out recording it, because watching it later on a tiny screen is obviously better than real life, only to find a brilliant miss. Can't help but laugh at them really.

Do we know how long he might be out for, if at all?

Not good enough. Farke out 😁

Exactly right. I think to simply assume we'll get promoted next year is arrogant and unrealistic. The champs is such a tough league with most clubs being vastly richer than us. Yes, we might bounce back, but we're just as likely to finish bottom half as we are top 6

Too soon? 😉

It's the nature of the beast I'm afraid. Fans won't and shouldn't put up with this dross we've been served up for so long in the Premier League. We're absolutely entitled to react unhappily and sarcastically if we choose to. Dean Smith, Webber and the players are paid the big money and to lecture us about our reactions is taking the Michael out of us. Not a good thing for him to have said here.

Just can't see it being as easy as that. We've been "gifted" the chance of a quick Prem return, and fluffed it, as we know. To be given another chance seems unlikely especially as the Champs is such a tough league

I think we are already of the mentality that it's our ideas against the rest of the Prem, and we do give the proverbial middle finger to the league. That's where it ends though. We stop well short of actually proving we can be of that mentality and still compete, sticking it to the others in the league by actually giving them a game and getting some points. I'd love us to shut the hating media etc up, but the only way to do that would be to perform on the pitch. Then, and only then, will the ethos we want to live by look commendable.

Quite possibly. It's the first thing I thought of when I read that initial message 😁

The Chinese - a great bunch of lads

Not so sure. The rule is that a yellow is issued when a player takes their top off, not specifically if that happens to be after they score a goal.

I absolutely love how you use the word "only" when describing 40k per week. I think that sums up how insane wages are in football 😆

Prem games are being postponed so there must be a criteria. I hope to hell we meet that

Agreed. It must be factored in. Feels like we don't ever have much luck on the injury/covid front. Should have done more but we probably can't compete with that starting 11 against any team in the Prem

Now Kabak is out, and assuming nobody comes back for the weekend, is there a number of players out that needs to be reached for it to be put off? Feel really worried about our options now for the December period, at least.

They're just expressive words used at highly emotionally charged moments. Offence is in the eye of the beholder maybe in this case because some do and some don't mind it. I'd draw the line at knowingly swearing in front of children, but adults should really be able to take it for what it is and not think too deeply of it

This was my fear also. A win being vital as the next two are probable loses. Puts us back where we started potentially. A win tonight, especially with our 1 man advantage, should really have been the reality

No we didn't. Only showed any sign of wanting to score after Newcastle themselves scored
