And jolly glad I am too. I know we are rural folk , but with hot and cold running water , and a comprehensive sewage system , there really is no excuse for such behaviour. 🚽

Another fact is that we’ve lost 13 prem games in a row .

The idea that fans can force a majority shareholder (s) out is cloud cuckoo , Pig. The only way is to buy them out . And that is only if they wanted to sell, which they do not. Fans could lay siege to Carrow Road for the rest of time , and Delia wouldn’t sell. History suggests that we have a stable club that is well run. I’m happy with that side of things however 13 successive defeats suggests that we don’t have the players to stay up. We don’t have the players because we can’t attract players here with relegation provision and a limited war chest. Our style of play wins the the Championship by miles but doesn’t work so well against Prem sides. This seems obvious to me already but if the management decide they cannot change a system then what can anyone do? It could be too ingrained in the players . Watching Max and Williams playing so high yesterday at times looked like suicidal football to me . But I’m a canary that sits shivering with nerves and fear when I watch so there isn’t much I can do , and I ain’t going anywhere.

Complete cobblers isn’t it? At no point in any universe was it anything other than a stonewall pen.

I think Farke and Webber know what they need. They just cannot attract the players. “Come and play for Norwich. We are favourites for relegation and will insist on a relegation clause “. Our targets are also the targets of other clubs. We are not alone in employing data , European contacts and generic scouting networks . Everyone knows our defensive set up isn’t premier league quality . What we do about it isn’t quite so easy.

Slightly OT BBC are between a rock and a hard place. They know their MOTD audience is still white and male , and of a particular era. I doubt anyone under 30 sees MOTD as a go to source of football insight . So they stick with Shearer et al. Shearer is painful to watch. A dinosaur from a period which is mostly irrelevant. It needs a massive change in format . The idea that you watch 5 mins of a game then spend 5 mins padding talking about it (when everyone knows they haven’t watched every game) is guff.

He’s got his golf clubs , trolley , and extra shopping in there too. No bother . “There's a total of 504 litres below the parcel shelf of the Qashqai – almost but not quite as much luggage space as you get in the Ateca and Karoq” Whatcar.com

I’m not surprised. Very generous boot space. TG should be rightly proud .

No way has he got a Qashqai.

It might have been when you started typing CC. I hope you are adding a bacon sandwich to that coffee. I know I am ! 👍

Not much on today Cambridge?

I would ask Simon for his comments on the relegation dog fight in Div 3. Simon may not have the experience , nor indeed most posters on here , as you would need to be a hopelessly bad team to be involved , but any light to be shone would be welcome . Perhaps counsel could be taken from some Div 3 clubs not involved in the dog fight - huge clubs such as Morecambe, Wycombe and Accrington Stanley .

I tend to watch MOTD when we win. So I haven’t watched it for a very long time .

This does cheer me up. Many thanks Dylan 🙏

Me too. Wouldn’t be surprised if they sack him during the international break though.

I wonder if Arteta will be in charge by then ?

Can only assume you’ve been on the sauce . “That penalty was easy to see from a fan's perspective in the stand as it's easy to see their feet relative to the ball as the ball is clearly in front. If you're a few feet above it as well, then double it.” is a spectacular use of words that in some parallel universe may make sense 😂🤣 Probably best to just finish off the bootle, Old Friend , and go and sleep it off . (it was as stone wall as you will see all season)

No it isn’t . I got it right from a lot further away than the ref. I’ve seen it once . So did everyone else I’ve spoken to. From all four corners of the ground .

You must have been facing the station.

Mike Milligan sat near me today #justsaying

For the record I thought Jones looked like a rabbit in headlights . Overruled by the linesman in two throw ins in the first half , which was extraordinary. The pen was stonewall but he dare not give the decision (until made to do so by VAR) . Reffed the percentages . Managed to get the “get to your feet” signal quota on Williams but not on Maddison . This is a direct instruction from POGMOL following the Euros by the way. Won’t see him doing big games for a while . Will do as many chumps as prem . Long way for him to go.

If Ben Pearson is the answer , I have no idea what the question is .

I’m afraid today Leicester were not the best of anything . They were poor . Gifted two goals by losing the ball in the wrong areas. Decent enough finishes but they won’t be given that many chances by most Prem Sides - and they were weakened by injury at the back. Leicester took two chances , we spurned two chances (Sargent and Idah) . Games like today are crucial to get points to stay up.

Beating Watford is now a must win game . Already . In September .

Stop press . Rochdale bag an equaliser and Col U slip to mid table . The old Binners will feel nicely at home .
