OK I''ll start it off as I''m off shortly to wander down to CR.(fortified with my lunchtime Peroni)We have a good record against Birmingham so I fully expect to take all 3 points today.

1-0 down but all over them

Typical Norwich, playing badly and conceding early. The football is absolutely dire.

How ARE Ipswich doing btw ?

[Well I Never 0]

We are obviously watching different games.

Russ Martin got off with a huge penalty claim against him when he brought down Donaldson, having been caught for guess what? Pace, of course.

I have claimed again and again, he is a liability. When will people understand this?

I understand that all these aimless long balls, misplaced passes and looping midfield headers must be exciting to the stream-watching plastics. But us real fans are disgruntled in our seats at Carrow Road.

[city-till-i-die 7]

So if you cannot get to the game for what ever reason it makes you less of a fan ?????

Really.

You massive Dlck

Lool. I have probably been to more Carrow Road games this season than this Boss Drum fella.

Can see Jonno getting a red, not quite enough creativity in the middle and wes losing the ball a lot. Would like to see V-O-O for Jonno and Murphy on for Wes at half time

Take a quick pic then and post it for us just to prove you are at Carrow Road.

Yes, that''s right BD, NCFC only have 26000 real fans.

Birmingham are very poor. Norwich should be capitalising but are poor themselves. Grabban having another torrid time.

[damn that Ralph Coates! 74]

don''t worry everyone - we will start in the second half as usual and score 3 to 4 goals.....

Yep just as I thought, no pic. Who''s the plastic?

[damn that Ralph Coates! 74]

actually if we win this 4-2, Neyul is the new messiah

[Syteanric 1]

Birmingham are poor but we have been even worse this half!time from an Adams Roasting at half time I think?

[Syteanric 1]

got what we deserved 1st half...

Norwich are truly abominable. Wave after wave of exactly the same routine down the right wing. No exciting flowing football today.

[Well I Never 0]

We started out looking bright but after their freak first goal it''s all gone downhill. We''ve looked more and more awful as the game has progressed.

Agree re Hooper.

[Syteanric 1]

don''t think it requires half time subs but a huge refocus in the dressing room. first 15 minutes of the 2nd half are vital.. if we can score we''ll turn it round and win.

As much as I would like a roasting to be successful, surely there is only a certain amount of times you can give a roasting at half time before the novelty wears off and makes no difference.

Fingers crossed for a much better second half though although I feel Brum will now double park a bus.

Whatever happens from here on in, this should be the last time NA starts with the current lineup. The starting eleven can''t expect to continue digging themselves out of a hole. Time to see if other squad members can perform a ninety minute match - the strength of squad affords Adams plenty of fresh options.
