As long as you pay a premium price for an armchair at Carrow Road, Delia won't mind if you are as quiet as a mouse. Maybe I got that wrong, I meant Zoe.

The Raptor 1,227 Posted January 5 Why pick on the snake pit? I've just got 3 tickets dead centre at the back of the lower river end. Where are their regulars? I suspect as others have said that alot of people move round during these quieter cup games and use it as a chance to try out other seats or sit with others as indeed I have.
