    Only saw bits of the game today and def wasn't our best performance but loads of character shown again. I normally focus a lot on the performance but at this time of the yr it's just about grinding out the results, rest up and go again

    A gap is forming between the top 4 and the rest, just got to keep on the tails of the 3 ahead of us and who knows what might happen

    Yep, credit to Adil. I havent rated him much at all, but he has shown up last 2 sub appearances. Long may it continue.

    always looks a goal threat when he comes on, can’t see why he’s not utilised more

    I would keep him, doesn't take the huff and just gets on with his jobs. Helped us enormously today down the wing

    .Wilson needs to turn a corner or he will be benched. Overall game isn't great and his finishing has completely disappeared.

    Got to be honest, I didn't expect them to be so devious. Even from the first minute they were throwing themselves to the ground.

    I’ve just had a look at the amount of cards given out. Would the FA look into that? I guess what I’m saying is that the ref was a bit card happy.

    He completely lost the game when he failed to book their player for pretending he was elbowed.

    Isidor was poor today.

    needs a rest I think he runs himself into the ground however second half he was pointless pressing and that’s just silly

    Mayenda looked really good up front again and I’d be tempted to put AA/Poveda in and him up front

    I’m not going to call today’s performance poor. It wasn’t a great football display but in a dirty stop start game in horrendous conditions we came out on top.

    referee lost control we said at half time there’s be a man sent off. Not surprised it was cordoba either he looked a scare at the back all the time, him and Duffy are poor

    haway the lads.

    He was honking today. Really poor. I don’t think he’s anywhere near as good as some make out

    Chances are there’ll either be fines for lack of discipline or the ref will be punished

    It’s the FA so we know which one it’ll be

    He was battling with Sainz to get control of a loose ball on the left edge of our area, trying to shield it while his weight was going backwards and seemed to jar his knee.

    Ive never seen a Norwich team with that attitude it stunk from minute one and, the ref just helped them ..7 might be skilful lad but he's a cheating **** .
