Read Roygbiv 's view from and one interesting comment that stood out was how the crowd turned on Billy Sharp's bit of aggro.
Dean Smith said something similar.
The Norwich fan thought Sharp initiated (or at least revved up) the incident to get the crowd involved. If he really did (and I'm not so sure) then that's a great bit of game management... if he didn't, then maybe it's something our players should start doing because it works. It's seemingly the only thing that does work with our crowd!
I was at the back of the Kop yesterday and the atmosphere reminded me a lot of that Derby match a couple of seasons ago. A few refereeing decisions went against us, the players got wound up, the crowd got riled up and we turned defeat into victory.
It was great yesterday and reminded me of how it used to be under Warnock. Not chanting loads necessarily but raucous and hostile.
Shame McBurnie didn't bury late on to send us all away smiling but it was an improved performance overall.
Osborn was busy and looked a threat, Norwood was fantastic. Ndiaye and McBurnie had huge impacts when they came on.
Take away the two giveaways goals and we were the much better side.
Desperate for some reinforcements to arrive at the back now though. Basham needs taking out of the XI as he's become a liability.
Anel and Egan had similarly poor games, though you'd let the former off as it was the first he's had.
