    Rules is rules they say.

    Watford defender Miguel Britos is still considered on four yellow cards after his double-booking in yesterday's Stoke City defeat.

    The Uruguayan was given a first-half yellow for talking back to referee Bobby Madley, in one of three petulant dissent bookings given to the Hornets during the game.

    He was then shown a late red as he needlessly tugged down Xherdan Shaqiri with the Swiss star going nowhere on the break from a Watford corner, hampering the Hornets' attempts to get back into the game.

    But the FA have instead wiped out his fifth yellow card of the campaign, and will simply face a one-match ban for his red card.

    However, it does also mean the defender will also be suspended for a game the next time he picks up a booking, unless he is next cautioned after December 31, by which point the five yellow card ban system is cast aside.

    So he will be banned for Man C away then after getting a 5th booking v Everton!

    Yes - although that could prove to be the silver lining for Ben Watson.

    Fella's: it might be a bad list but it is also an unjust list. Petulance is one thing, but FFS we ain't half seen some w*****s in the middle this season.

    Canarydave will be insufferable - U18's losing 0-3 to the Canaries in the FA Youth Cup. Three goals in eight minutes before half an hour's play... :(

    Went (as did 550 others) on a very cold night.

    Norwich were very good - we weren't.

    Simple as.

    I see the BBC documentary has been scrapped for now.

    The 1st programme was about our medical team - which hasn't exactly had the most impressive record this season!

    (Still on in the USA though)

    Suspect the recent allegations about us and football in general hasn't helped..

    I enjoyed it too - was a bit surprised at the number of pizzas consumed after the match.

    Kaboul's fashion sense was a tad odd - not as bad as Capoue's pizza box hat though. <laugh>

    Prödl, Scott Duxbury and Filippo Giraldi (scout?) at the Fans Forum.

    Under 18s losing 3-1 in the Herts Senior Cup - not really sure why we bother entering!
