No defence. No mental strength. No promotion.

[Keith Scott 243]

Newcastle showing us how it''s done. That is all. Actually just like to add, ''Russel Martin is good at this level'' ''He''s just a scapegoat''............

[Herman 9,691]

LOL. Keith Scunt[Y]

[ricardo 7,328]

Foolish to deny a problem that has been obvious all season.

[Buh 0]

Great to see you morons back

[Crafty Canary 495]

Yep, nothing wrong with our defence that blinkered fans can see.

[hogesar 9,606]

Welcome back Keith. Missed you.

[Feedthewolf 4,844]

I doubt anyone is happy with our defending this season on the whole. But why would you ONLY post when we fail to win if you''re a real fan? Keith Scott supports Ipswich Town, it''s so blindingly obvious.

All those weeks of pent up happiness,let it out old son.

us ?

I think you are a few days early

your game against them is Saturday

[Buh 0]

Tin pot Keith Scott and his two brain cells

And no, this is isnot admission that I am "blinkered" to our defensive problems,its confirmation that you are an idiot.

[Yorkshire Canary 118]

There is a fragility about this side but they are a decent side and getting results more often than not.we are challenging imo for second spot and every chance of hanging in there

[K Lo 221]

How many league games have Norwich comfortably won this season ?

If Huddersfield win their game in hand against PNE Norwich will drop to 3rd.

[Clint 221]

We''d have a better chance of hanging in there if we didn''t attemp to throw away every single match though. We have the points on the board but we do not look convincing at all.

Clearly our defence needs working on, but we are on course for 95 points as things stand.I get that we don''t look convincing, and if we keep leaking goals then our results might tail off. But the flipside is that if we can sort the defensive frailties out, how good would we be then?!We''re on track.

Don''t worry about Huddersfield they have had a great start but small squad and no cash they will run out of steam Brighton are the ones we are scrapping with for second place.

If my Auntie had balls....

Not as chairman, obviously.

[Tetteys Jig 830]

Only 4 sides have conceded more than us...

[Tetteys Jig 830]

5 even, but still...

What twaddle, we are barely a quarter of the way through the season

ps we drew at Fulham, could you remind us all how your wonderful Newcastle got on there

[nutty nigel 7,506]

Only one has a better goal difference?

Still......

[Yorkshire Canary 118]

A quarter of the way through the season gives a good indicator. Huddersfield have been fighting relegation the last few seasons when they get a few injuries they will tail off like Barnsley have done. Expect villa to climb the table. Brighton just missed out last season and are just as strong.

[Rudolph Hucker 0]

I really don''t get the doom and gloom.

One of the reasons we concede goals is because we push our full backs forward and attack. If anything our problem is failing to turn superiority into goals because when we let one in we are suddenly under pressure.

Okay, so Fulham came back but this was a game we might have lost before but we didn''t because AN didn''t go defensive and sit back as he had us do at Newcastle. This strategy almost saw us snatch a winner. Give him some credit.

As for mental strength how about beating Wolves away after coming off a shattering result? And how about dealing with expectation?

The biggest surprise to me this season is the number of teams there or thereabouts because there is another large group who are very poor.

Overall this is a result I would have taken before the game and I look optimistically forward to the weekend when I expect most of the top eight to win again.

[Jim Smith 2,314]

Not giving him any credit at all for that. Awful second half performance. He is completely incapable of managing or influencing a game once it is underway.

[Rogue Baboon 0]

Amazing. It used to be a defeat that brought them all out. As we have been on a good run, a decent away point is enough now

[Feedthewolf 4,844]

Great post, Rudolph.

[Rudolph Hucker 0]

Had we lost the lead but came back to equalise the mood would have been entirely different.

True, but there''s a fine line between non-comfortable wins and the thrown-away points. There is clearly a weakness in the Norwich squad that gets explored. Even Rotherham had a go at 2-0 down.

I''ve just seen that in recent games, QPR beat Fulham 2-1 at Craven Cottage and Bristol City also beat Fulham 4-0 away. In that context, 2-2 was a poor result.

I''m still spitting feathers after Norwich''s Newcastle result.

[Rogue Baboon 0]

Fulham also beat Newcastle at home though?

Some it''s clear where our problems lie then isn''t it...

or perhaps you think our defence is sorted then.

still...
