A is for attitude
B for belief,
Both must be right
To help cut out the grief,
C is for closeness
Within the whole squad,
D to dig deep
When we feel under trod,
E is for effort
And energy too,
F for the fight
Which must again shine through,
G ´s for those goals
We´ve been missing of late,
H for some heart
When we step to the plate,
I is for icy
The look they should get,
If at any time
They should just forget,
J for the jugular
Where we should aim,
Which leads to K
To kill off any game,
L is for luck
Which any team does need,
M ´s for the manager
Who they must heed,
N is for niceness
Throw that overboard,
That sort of luxury
We can´t afford,
O is ourselves
We too must dig deep,
P ´s for our Premier place
Which we must keep,
Q is for quality
Which we have signed,
R to recover some
That would be fine,
S is the setback
We all know we´ve had,
Our New Year jitters
Are often this bad,
T is for thirteen
The games that remain,
U for those under us
And in more pain,
V ´s for the volume
Of noise in our stands,
W the war
We´ve now got on our hands,
X -rated it could be
From now on in,
Y for the youth
Who might just get a spin,
Z ´s for the zip
We want back in our step
To hopefully celebrate
This survival alphabet. OTBC - INIT
 
I Hope you're right RBF because right now I think we're more;

A is for awful
with all the ballsups,
B is best off out,
of both of the cups,
C is for crapness
of the whole squad,
D for Dead lazy b'stards
Less grass have they trod,
E is for emnity
the meek surrenders provoke,
F for the f#ckup
Like O'neil at Stoke,
G ´s for those gonads
We´ve been missing of late,
H for the humiliation
On our recent Villa date,
I is for icky
the brown stuff we're in,
J is joke of our form
If looked for our positives are thin,
K is for kooks
Delia drinks Sherry in her own way
L is for losing
whilst in our negative sway,
M ´s for the manager
who's run out of ideas,
N is for nouce
sadly lacking between the ears,
O is for over
at villa the fat lady sang,
P ´s for our Premier league bubble
Which burst with a bang ,
Q is for quality
so little we've seen,
R is on the road
no points have there been,
S is for Suarez
things could have been worse,
5 goals from Liverpoo
20 would have perpetuated the curse
T is for thirteen
more games to fail,
U for under performing
our defence has been bad,
V ´s for the vitriol
on social media its sad,
W the wasted chances
Our strikers have had,
X - is for Xenon gas
as inert as our players,
little ole Norwich
living up to the naysayers
Y for the y'army
all out of song,
Z for the zeppelin like
turning circle of Sebastian Bassong

I like yours better OTBC

Bah!
 
I saw this a moment ago:

Norwich average 2.71 points/game when they score first and just 0.22 when they concede the opener

If true then we better pray for an early City goal! (Even if its not true, an early goal would be rather welcome from us for a change)

Bah!
 
<applause> for both efforts and unfortunately, I can agree with both alphabets. Let's hope we see more of RBF's in the remaining games!!!!

What's that like compared to other teams though? I would have thought most teams struggle to get points when they concede first
 
To add insult to injury with our bad luck, it turns out that Villa's opener was actually an own goal by Klose...
 
Agbonlahor, remember when he was picked for England? Jeez, what were we thinking.
