[quote user="Dr. Ink"]Scunthorpe winning at Derby. Puts the scum down a position.[:D][/quote]

 

Thought Scunny were ahead of Ipswich ??

[quote]Lambert duly has asks Holt why he didn''t shoot himself...

A bit drastic commiting suicide...[/quote]It was even more suicidal laying it off to Lappin though!!

[AJ 1,218]

10 minutes to half time, Lappin good cross in, Nelson with the firm header but keeper equal to it, diving and holding onto it.

Gone a bit quiet now, Exeter were in good voice a moment ago, around 300 fans they have brought with them which is quite a surprise really!

[AJ 1,218]

Holt in on goal, lays it off to Hoolihan, holds it up and lays it off to Adam Drury who must surely score. But somehow the keeper is equal to it, and Drury''s wait for a goal continues. Fantastic save.

I''m really encouraged by the number of shots on target. Bound to get a second soon!

Tony Cottee is at the game reporting for Sky, he says its all Norwich but he''s impressed with Exeter.

[AJ 1,218]

Nelson header again from a Lappin corner, inches over the bar. A second goal must surely be on the cards soon?!

[Shaun Tilly Lace 0]

Come on, City. Bag a hatful of goals!

Yes cmon Norwich lets get another before half time [:D]

[paul moy 235]

Lucky not to concede there..... PHEW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[AJ 1,218]

Forster made an absolutely fantastic save from a deflected diving header from fleetwood. Exeter pushing Norwich back, Forster is a rock.Russel Martin clears it off the line with Forster beaten.

Apparently Marshall making some good saves for Cardiff, so says Paul Merson on SSN

[AJ 1,218]

The ball comes in and meets a well timed Lappin run who tries to loop a header over the keeper but the keeper saves. Could have probably brought that down I think.

[paul moy 235]

We really should have been at least three up by now. As usual we are making our supporters nervous.

[AJ 1,218]

Better well built apparoach ending with Lappin who drags his shot wide. Fancies a goal this afternoon I think that lad!

[paul moy 235]

Scunthorpe now 2-0 up at Derby

[ca 1]

Wonder if WAY got to the game, she was stuck in Dereham last night surrounded by 11 inches of snow and was appealing for Huskies and sleighs [:D]

C''mon Wycombe, they''ve had 8 shots at goal compared with Leeds only having 6

CMON YOU YELLOWS [:)]

[AJ 1,218]

Half time whistle goes. A second goal would surely kill a game which Norwich have completely dominated off.Exeter look dangerous in patches, but that could be down to a few slippy moments from NorwichWell on course and thoroughly deserve our lead, and a chance to get a few more points ahead of Charlton.

Funnily enough, yesterday there was a news item that showed Huskies pulling a sleigh through Thetford Forest.

Reckon WAY must have got to game City Angel or she''d be on here. Lucky (?) for her...

I''m so glad I stayed put. Snowing big time here. My footprints from this morning totally covered by snow now so must have had 2 inches since 10am.

[Woman in the Stands (WITS) 0]

Just showing PL receiving his MOTM award. Speaks of confidence. Credit to the lads. He''s delighted with the progress so far.

[AJ 1,218]

[quote]From Jenny at Elland Road, via text: "Most fans chose not to boo

or cheer Beckford - who is wearing gloves by the way. Very indifferent

feeling here. Some boos but generally hushed. Unfortunately Leeds

suffering an FA Cup hangover, despite the goal."[/quote]Interesting! Chance of a slip up?

[Woman in the Stands (WITS) 0]

Cottee says it''s all Norwich dominating second helf opening minutes. Smith made a good run...

[AJ 1,218]

Norwich bombarding Exeter...

[Shaun Tilly Lace 0]

Let''s hope we can make this dominance count.

[AJ 1,218]

Once again Holt is too nice and doesn''t go for goal. Good approach play so far, but no end product. C''mon city, lets put it to bed!

[yoda 0]

the longest without a goal at home for a while

[paul moy 235]

I hope that Lambert changes things soon. Exeter now making three subs !!!! 

[B-ru 0]

stewart and logan ruddy scummers!!!

give them hell CR!!

[AJ 1,218]

Marcus Stewart (37 years old!) comes on for Exeter as part of a 3 man substitution to try and win the game. Richard Logan (Ipswich youth product) also comes on.An hour gone, Norwichs till bombarding the Exeter goal, often doing a bit too much...Surely a change will happen soon for Norwich?
