    Interesting article from today's Independent.

    http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/...norwich-into-very-solid-citizens-8373817.html

    "From last year, when they were very attacking under Paul Lambert and throwing the kitchen sink at teams, they've gone more defensive and controlled, more solid. But it's still bringing the results and I think the fans are happy with that." 


    This fan is certainly very happy knowing that we only need to score one goal to give ourselves the chance to win a game - I agree it's not good for the nerves, but if we can stay up because of it, then I'll take it!!!

    I agree; it's a good article, and I think that the photo of a bemused Ryan Giggs in pursuit of our Wessi should be in a caption competition!

    Yes, we were always thinking 'would we score more than the other team'. Apart from the games against Fulham, Chelsea and Liverpool, we have looked quite solid.

    The trip to the Liberty will be a good test next week - especially after their result yesterday!!!!

    we seem to be at a state now where if the opposition score first we draw the match, and if we score first, we win the match. much safer on the nerves than last season.
