    Are their any fans of the Tories? On sky he was sitting directly behind our dragon but only the rich PM was mentioned

    Another great week for us. Plymouth were pretty abject and never good to watch a team sit so deep. I suspected alcaraz might get the chance to put one in the corner and that was a wonderful strike. lovely football. Watched the Leeds game after and I'm surprised by how they have fallen off, their forward line just not looking sharp at all. Enjoying watching us again.

    I just watched the game with Derek McInnes. I'd love to regale you with his thoughts on our tactics and disposition but we were both pished and basically shouted at the TV quite a bit.

    Plymouth looked quick on the counter. If they had been more potent we could have been in trouble.

    May it continue to be so in a Saints shirt. I don't have a problem with that. Last season we were embarrassed!!

    We could try the "give us the 3 points to stop Ipswich going up" card.

    As long as we're ahead of them and at least 22 others at the end of the season, that'll do. However I'm enjoying the fun of The Championship!

    Wagner had half their first team on the bench at Millwall today. Norwich fans very unhappy as they consider Millwall a much more winnable game than the one against us.

    If we had allowed them to have a bit more possession they had the ammunition to score, especially on the break, but we were far to miserly to let them have it.

    Feels like not a happy ground for us generally too. If we do get through that one then l can't see us not equalling the record against Wednesday

    A few times they cut straight through our midfield, which was worrying. We missed Downes.

    Is the record just league games?

    Think it is just league games as ran September-December 1921 and the FA Cup 1st round was January (beat South Shields 3-1).

    Jos is such a great guy. We were lucky to have him.

    It's a question which I've been wondering the answer to.

    If our existing record contains no cup matches because we played no cup matches during that period, then I think it's legitimate to include cup matches. It would mean that our existing record is an all-competition record (despite only including league matches), rather than a league-only record (ie one which ignores cup matches).

    Which means Walsall to equal and Sheffield Wednesday to beat? Should we not lose to Norwich of course, which we probably will now.
