Norwich City (A) - Post-Match Thread

[Inter Me Nan]

Redknapp very bitter tonight

It warms the cockles of my heart.

 

[come-on-barney]

Tell you Redknapp is going to cry soon

 

[Chris B]

That penalty against United or Liverpool and there’s no debate. Clear pen.

Disgusted of Eccles is back!!! Don’t worry not at our team/club but at the Blooming Bimbos Crowd (BBC in case it wasn’t clear)
Since when have they gone out of their way to put the score and the goal timings and assists followed by : Penalties Missed very prominently as a column? I don’t ever remember that before!!
But of course it’s City let’s make sure we’re not praising just denigrating! The little weaselly so and so’s!

I always think of the speech in Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar when I read reports of our matches.
“Friends, Romans, countrymen lend me your ears…I come to bury Caesar not to praise him….. the evil that men do lives after them THE GOOD IS OFT INTERRED WITH THEIR BONES”.
They just can’t praise us without the knife wound can they?

GGGGRRRRR. sorry Mods and Ric, sorry folks!

Our strongest front 3, two of our strongest midfield. Plenty of fanny wipes in the pre match exposed..

Maybe it was the news about Jack off.

People need to trust Pep, he works with the squad everyday and know's what it is capable of.

Some saying the team he picked wasn't capable of winning this game was laughable.

We took control after their early pressure then dominated the rest of the game and in the end we were very comfortable.

Well played City.....and the blues go marching, on, on, on!!!

I couldn’t agree more. It sounds like an after the fact statement but I actually really liked this line-up figuring Norwich would go over the top In attack and defend narrow. Great match for Ake and Walker and Sterling and Zinky had space all match too. And it enabled us to give some obvious starters in Lisbon a break.

Just love our sense of comic irony with some of our chants. “Is this the etihad” when carrow road had gone flat as a flat thing! Chant of the day from a brilliant vocal away support. Oh yeah a fine, fine result too there.

Redknapp very bitter tonight

Taking the full length of the Dipper Dick tonight, actually embarrassing his viewpoint. Sticks out as he is normally much more balanced/decent. I suppose that’s the effect of the cult.

 

[Phil1]

Hope some of the soft arses on the prematch thread before and indeed up until half time have found a dark corner to sit in and reflect on their silliness.

Lack of faith in this team still astounds me.

 

[Lavinda Past]

We certainly do. Always said that. But what baffles me is where are they when we play at home as you could hear a pin drop at the Etihad? I just don’t understand it‍

City fans have always been better at away games, even back in the wildest Maine Road days. The Etihad doesn't lend itself to atmosphere, particularly in afternoon matches - the split levels kill it. If the redeveloped North Stand is a single sweep of fans, it'll improve 100%
