Watching on iFollow. They have done a job on Coutts and Fleck all game. It feels like we are down yo 10 men because the ball isn't sticking up front and we don't have enough men in the box when it does go in. We need some luck in the 2nd half if we are to score..

Looks like we are playing with 10 men as Evans is playing.

We've got into some decent areas inside the box, if we had Billy's movement in there we'd have scored by now.
 

the ball must have only been in play for about 4 mins out of the last 15. so frustrating. scrappy foul after scrappy foul, subs, bookings, time wasting. The game has just been killed off.
 
this has to be the most frustrating 30 mins of football I've seen in years.
Norwich have completely killed the game off since the 65th min with time wasting, faked injuries, scrappy free kicks. Well done to them, but fucking hell, only 6 mins added on for what has been about 15 mins of stoppages.
If theres any justice we'll score in last second if injury time.
 
Did we play good or bad today? Hard to tell from the comments i've been reading so far. Obviously we lost so we wasnt that good but the scoreline sometimes doesnt tell the while story.

Was the loss purely down to the lack of strikeforce or was there other reasons?

Frustrating being over a 1000 miles away every saturday.
 
Played well but absolutely nothing up front which I suppose was expected. Nothing that dampened my hopes for this season.

Their keepers been at it since the 23rd.

Weren't at our best but we were far better than them, created our own problems for most part and midfield were a bit out of sorts giving ball away a lot

That said we dealt with their shithousery well, 100% deserved a point at the least, a fit striker the difference in this one

Played generally well, got into some good areas, had 3 clear good chances where we should score at least 2 of those. They had one chance on target and scored.

We didn't have enough up front, Ched is a waste of space and wages. need to get rid of him in January and use that money on a better option.

The problem was the way the game was killed off from about the 65th minute. It pretty much ended there. The time wasting, faked injuries, bookings, subs etc. just killed the game off, the complete last 30 mins was just a waste. The ref added on 6 mins and then their keeper probably took 3 of those mins to take 3-4 goal kicks.

The sooner football brings in the 60 minute clock the better.
 
6 points from 3 games in a week, 2 which were away. Onto next week with some fit strikers (hopefully).
 

Their goal came against the run of play and it changed things.

That is all.
 
We improved in the second half – quicker, fewer errors, but unfortunately this was counteracted by Norwich upping the gamesmanship. And we fell for it hook line & sinker. Ultimately we didn't trouble Gunn for all that pressure.

We did get one piece of luck, that being that neither the ref nor assistant spotted Coutts's off-the-ball hand-to-face that led to the 2nd player rolling around on the floor needing treatment. Had a perfect view of it in front of the South Stand – he was already on a yellow, and luckily will still be available for next Sunday.

Lastly, how stupid that a week after deploring the bottle-throwing at Sunderland that some of our fans do the same and add in a coin too.
 
i thought we played well today, we coped well after 1st 15mins once we had got used to Norwichs klopp style geigenpressing that 1st half. created alot of chances & were very threatening but what really irrated me was why were constantly trying to walk it in. its was brooks i think 5 before half time, 6yds out free just volley it & 1-1. but for some reason he had a touch then chance has gone

the referee didnt help himself, he really lost control in that 2nd half too stop start foul for everything, yellows like they sweets. im quite surprised both sides stayed with 11 men & you know its bad when officials need a escort of the pitch. but Norwich didnt help the referee. made his job much tougher because there are ways to win. i thought all germans were efficient. but norwich have found a manager thats an exception, because ive never known 1 German waste so much time. we were still playing at 5pm but if utd had won like that id be embarrassed having resorting to cheating, time wasting & other dark arts. like 23 who im amazed didnt leave on a wheelchair. with all things he claimed he had "broke"
