    Who can capitulate better? Norwich City or the England cricket team?

    SURELY we can't afford to keep Hughton? All this squit about leaving his sacking until the end of the season will be too late? We need at least a dozen points from the last 10 games to survive. This seems to be beyond us.

    In CH's post-match interview, he's admitted to giving up at half time. Ridiculous.

    It is very apt that the alarm is going off as Hughton speaks on Radio Norfolk

    That is a fecking travesty. I might have been all endorphined up last w/e after that victory, but ffs, giving up is not part of the mantra at half time. Twit

    Hughton has this wonderful ability to win games when he absolutely has to so I fully expect that you will beat Stoke next weekend. I hope this is a crumb of comfort!

    I CANNOT believe that Hughton has said the game was over at half time. What kind of ****ing motivation is that? So angry right now. Yes, we were likely to lose but for the manager to throw in the towel with 45 minutes left? Get him out of my club.

    Note the lack of Hughton supporters on here tonight?
    Speaks volumes after we came out last week to commend CH after a decent performance against Spurs?
    We will NEVER progress to the next level under this clueless manager, the Redmond for Elmander sub/ swap summed up how out of depth he really is.

    Do you think Lambert or Holt, the two stalwarts of our success over the last four years, would EVER have come out and said a game was over at half-time? It was our never-say-die attitude that got us where we are. I cannot believe what Hughton has come out and said.

    Fair enough - but think of the fans, the people who shell out a fortune each year to see the team. Do they want to hear that?

    Norwich 1 - 4 Middlesbrough after 80 minutes. Norwich 4 - 4 Middlesbrough after 90 minutes.

    Giving up at half time is inexcusable. You can think whatever you like as a manager but to transfer that negativity onto your team is ludicrous. It's the managers job to motivate the team and send them out to perform in the second half.

    If he did actually say that then it should be grounds for dismissal !
