Talking of dark arts, how is that Voodoo curse that i put on Ipswich working?, and DH i hope you are taking the piss about letting Liverpool take our top 6 spot?... They will blow it tonight
Some might say Holt was a master of those 'black arts' at least a season ago!! Have a good evening, Budgies!!
When I saw it looked accidental, and then the commentator pointed out the N'Zonzi only had his hand up anyway to appeal for something or other, no intention in that one anyway.
Dear oh dear. Ok, not our best performance, but a spirited fightback nonetheless. It's a measure of how far we've come that we expected to win this. Blackburn are, despite not being on top of their game recently, still a good team with some good players. It should also be remembered that they have been established in this division for the last ten years. So, no mugs, then. I would have liked a victory of course, but I still have a lot of faith in this team.
Hello, just got back in. At the start of the game I would of taken the point, but once I heard we where 3-1 up I'm a little disappointed with the final score.
Just got in from the game. Blackburn were very good and very very strong. They were able to just walk through our midfield at times, particularly towards the end. Although blackburn are down at the bottom of the table, they were certainly fighting for everything, and I'll be surprised if Kean gets sacked after that. Overall, a good point gained, but tbh we probably didn't deserve it.
A very boring game in my opinion, especially the first half. Don't know what you're on about ICHB, I was very worried given Blackburns result against Newcastle. But we looked like the team that played 120 minutes mid-week. Typical that when I post statistics on how well Fox and Ruddy have been doing, see 'saturday morning statistics,' they do badly!
Fox didn't do badly wonky. Ruddy wasn't terrible he was poor, but not so bad, and I'd say he's allowed a few mistakes after the start he's made.
Fox had a few poor corners compared to what he can usually do. He was very quiet. Perhaps badly wasn't quite the best word but neither were great. Ruddy should not have conceded the second today. Oh also the ref didn't know what he was doing today! Yet to see the penalty decision as I was at the wrong end and both Blackburn and Noreich had plenty of decisions that went against them. Also, Bennets yellow was very harsh.
Sorry DM, but with Norwich pressing late on, the last thing a player should be doing is standing inside his own penalty area with his arms out like the angel of the north statue. Arms by his sides and it gets waved away, but he didn't do that. I can't understand how we can pass and move like Barcelona in the first half - and Barnet reserves in the second ??
IMO at least 50% of penalties given for handball are not penalties,the ball just hits a hand and the player conceding makes no effort to play the ball.Today's was one of those.Interestingly people who were saying that it evens out over a season are starting to be proved a little bit right.Holt went down easily for the free kick that led to the award.Robinson went the right way and it had to be placed hard and pretty much perfectly to go in.It was.you can rely on Holt.
Had to laugh about bennetts booking, was harsh but the plank on final score said he was lucky to stay on the pitch lol. Let's move on and hope for a better performance next week against villa.
