We’ve never taken 9000 away in my lifetime

Some notable efforts at Forest , Anfield and Man City but not 9000

You will be fine

5000 or close to wasn’t  it 

I can’t recall exact numbers but I think Forest might be the biggest in my years

I’ve been wondering how many we took to Forest in the league cup semi and how that would compare to West Ham. Feels like yesterday! But I’ve got no idea on how many of us were there (felt a lot though). I was at the MKD one more recently too and yes that was around 5k. I’ve also just been reminiscing about Rovers 1 City 2 at Eastville as 40 years ago (Dec 83) and felt packed on the terraces that day. 

This sums him up - brilliant

Ipswich top the league. In case you were wondering.

So we want US owners with Ashton as CEO?!

Should have equalised 

Playing well now

Liz Truss timescale?

Lettuce see

He maybe a decent manager or prove to be one in the end but it'll take time and within a few weeks after we lose at West Ham, the season will to all intents and purposes be over.

Perhaps we’re concentrating on the cup and will win at West Ham!

I take it you’re not with virgin?

Yes not with virgin (on Sky) - both red button and app are fine (can also watch from recording if want to rewind for replays although pic quality not as good)

Anyone else's red button not working?

Working fine for me 

I never understood why he left Sunderland. 

Gerry Gow 70s for me.

Weimann saying how he's been playing with pain in recent games, and he's only just getting past that

I did think that it would be something like that - I recall Pearson saying it was something Weimann would need to play through. Explains why he hasn’t looked the same since his injury.

No trains for the home games against Watford on 20 january and Leeds on 3rd february at Parson Street

Thanks for the heads up re 3 Feb (I was aware of no Parson St on 20 Jan but not that one.)

Sorry. I’m a Nige fan. But the idea he installed a culture of winning is demonstrably not true. Culture of hard work. Culture of togetherness. Culture of good people. 100%. But we only won less than one out of every three games when Nige was manager. 

Agree. I didn’t see anything wrong with Manning’s interview. He’s rightly p’ed off that the players have thrown away 3 points initially and then 1 point at the death. It’s soft from the players and if he was happy about that I would be more worried.

Did we hear booing at the end today?

Inevitable after a late loss but trying to think of when we were last booed off at FT.

Boxing Day I would think.

I don’t want Manning gone, but I never wanted him in! Pearson should still be here. I want the board gone. Manning being unsuccessful shows the boards complete incompetence.

Manning was bought in to move the club forward. He had everything in place to do so according to those who decided he was going to be our saviour. Until this happens he will get criticised by me and others.

That’s precisely what the OP was saying though - impatience. I didn’t want Pearson sacked, but no-one can reasonably judge whether Manning will be successful or unsuccessful after just 4 games.

Weimann hasn’t been the same since his injury. Wonder if he's 100% right. Surprised he didn’t make way for Bell. Cue winner from Weimann!

Said at the time, that job will do enormous, enormous damage to his managerial career. 

I feel LJ jumps into the next job too quickly. I always thought Gary J did the same (Peterborough and Northampton after us) so perhaps it runs in the family.

Sorry if been covered elsewhere but my brother sent me his season ticket for todays game and it still says against Birmingham , any idea how to update it ?

Do you mean that he’s used the forward individual ticket functionality, clicked the Norwich match to be sent to you,  and your email from the club is saying Birmingham? (Surprised if that could happen so perhaps something different?)

Russell Martin remains a bit of a chippy tosser. Saw it linked on Twitter.

Blimey that’s something else! Obviously not feeling loved! 

Judging by some of the comments on here, some fans think we should change  manager every 3 games. Talk of a worrying pattern after just 3 games is laughable and, frankly, weird.

Naismith was a hamstring, Sykes was just a tactical switch I thought.

Sykes had an injury or cramp according to some on here. 

Wouldn’t rule out 1-1. Apparently they haven’t kept a clean sheet at home this season. Hopefully they get jittery towards the end. 

Our passing is so sharp. Tommy should have scored there.
