Feedthewolf 4,844 Posted October 18, 2016 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yorkshire Canary 118 Posted October 18, 2016 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clint 221 Posted October 18, 2016 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yorkshire Canary 118 Posted October 18, 2016 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rudolph Hucker 0 Posted October 18, 2016 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 Posted October 18, 2016 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rogue Baboon 0 Posted October 18, 2016 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
