Norwich City FC (First Team) v Southampton FC (First Team) Football League Championship Referee: England, Darren Assistant Referee: Burt, Stuart Assistant Referee: Cook, Dan Fourth Official: Busby, John He did the 4-4 draw at St Mary's so we're bound to get a penalty or two.
On another note tried buying Walsall tickets earlier but the website not applying my ST discount. Anyone else had similar issues?
No great surprise. I feel sorry for Ross (he must be gutted), but not for the club. Crazy for us to sign him when we did.
Tbf, there were no other options for top quality, proven championship strikers that had already worked with the manager...
I imagine such a glaringly obvious choice would have been considered too simple for our recruitment department who really wanted to showcase their genius credentials. At least Piroe didn’t go on and strengthen a direct rival for promotion or anything….oh
My gut feeling at the time and still now is that we did go for Piroe and he chose Leeds over us, and Stewart was our second choice. All the PR and media stuff about us not being interested in Piroe I just don’t buy. obviously the plan was for Stewart to be fit again in November or whatever it was and the goal scoring load be carried by Adams in the mean time, which hasn’t happened. To really cement our place/challenge the top 2 we will need another striker in Jan I feel. Be a big risk to just rely on the ones we have staying fit and keeping form up. It feels like we haven’t scored that many goals but in reality we probably have, just maybe not as many as having 200% possession a game would make you think we would score
