Thanks Roy.
Well reading that they just don't seem able to grasp the basics of football, focus on the wrong things & take copious amounts of salt with their meals. Message for them, it is not just a free for all when the kick off takes place, a team needs a plan & a picture of what you are attempting to achieve, players with the intelligence to carry out instructions, a real desire to compete & a heart to change things if they are not going your way. Happily we have all that in spades, so suck on that you six fingered fuckers.
 
Sheff U didn’t even need to be that good, one cross and Hanley/Godfrey dont mark their men and they score an easy goal.

and that has been their problem ALL season - they are a decent team and play nice football - absolutely rubbish defence - and include the full backs also. Full backs are nice going forward but we found loads of space around Aarons. He'll go in the summer, but some defensive coach needs to do a fair bit of work with him.

UTB
 
"Four minutes stoppage time after a player has spent three minutes rubbing his head for no reason and both teams have made three subs? "

Playing football the Norwich way ... lol

Their first fake injury was four minutes in. On top if that, the ref only added one minute despite the fact he was down for at least 90 seconds.

Re the goal and marking, I think McBurnie did a terrific job dragging both defenders with him leaving Sharp unmarked.
 

Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong but... what's this thing about us having rich owners? Am I missing something? We just spent the money that you get for being in the Premier League 🤷‍♂️
Quite, Ben
They conveniently forget the money they spunked in previous seasons in the Prem that has led to them being far more prudent with this promotion.
They conveniently ignore the fact that we have recently spent 6 years in the third tier having to sell our best academy products at reduced rates to keep in touch with expenditure.
They conveniently forget the way they shithoused 90 mins of a game at the Lane after going ahead early doors with a display of the most flagrant time wasting I have witnessed for many a year.

That’s why the saltiness displayed in these comments is all the sweeter 😁👍🏻
 
Love how the difference between us now we are staying up is because we are rich lol

Conducting a detailed root and branch back-to-basics stripped down analysis of the fundamental reasons, I have concluded:-

"it's not fair"

Are all Norwich fans 8 years old?

And the decoy run of Basham to create the space for Lunny to size up the cross because it took a defender away from him so Lunny wasn’t closed down.

Yes indeed. Someone yesterday thought that the commentator had misidentified Lundstram as Basham, but he was actually calling out Basham's run down the outside. Just great movement all around.
 
Got to say Norwich fans have surprised me, I never had them down as a bunch of mardy no marks, by winning league they got more money than us. The difference is we invested it in players where as they have either sat on cash, or paid off the "tally man", I honestly think they love their little homely club tag.

They rely too much on Pukki and I do think they'll go down, at season start I thought they'd do quite well but seem happy with sporadic good wins against Citeh, Leicester and just losing to Liverpool. If they can raise their game against these clubs why do they rip the fans off by being dross the rest of the time.

They're a weird bunch arent they!

Norwich are the most sterile club we've ever had a rivalry with, it's only because of our shared journey over the last few years and if we hadn't, we'd have no reason to have a rivalry at all. They're just too normal. They seem to think they're so civilised, which is just not what football is for. Seems odd to me.

"Not sure I’d like to watch that each week" - yes because being in 6th place, on the brink of european qualification, is much worse than being rock bottom of the premier league.

Oh how I wish I was a Norwich season ticket holder right now. o_O

Jeez.
Think you're being a bit harsh.

Pretty decent comments for the most part and let's face it we're not short of fans with weird opinions ourselves.
 

Farke Watch
I’ve noticed this a lot, and during match highlights on MOTD, with Farke when he is on the sidelines. He regularly has an index finger under his nose as though he is sniffing something on it to comfort him. God knows what it is?

Here’s an example. Anyone else notice this and have an explanation as to what it might be?
