    It’s getting sickening as the bias towards the opposition is every single game

    The pronunciation of “Tie Mon” is doing my head in.

    I still prefer this commentary to the snorefest we get on Swans TV though.

    Decent half for the first 30-35 minutes and some decent chances. We needed to take one.

    When we're outside their box we knock it about and struggle to get a ball in, when they're up our end they're running through the defence and taking pops at goal. Norwich didn't look dangerous until that last 10-15 minutes but then they're making chances for fun.

    I don't expect Luke to respond tactically (surprise) and they'll fancy finishing the job now.

    It’s starting to feel like we are in free fall - squad not good enough, Manager not good enough ….

    Why not pick a side and adopt a playing formula that seeks to work to the strengths of Vipotnik for 2 or 3 games to see if we can find a way to score regularly?

    The existing style is not working as we haven’t got the players nor the quality of coaching.

    Vip's an out and out 9. If we're trying to play "wingers" and overlap, stick him up top and put crosses in at every opportunity. In the right side, with decent service I think he'd be pretty effective (at this level). We're rudderless and toothless currently.

    I also think it'd be worth trying Eom centrally as a 10 in front of the midfield. Anything's worth a try right now as we're going nowhere. Then again, Luke doesn't appear up to it.

    Well that sums us up - equalise and concede within 60 seconds….

    How much space are we giving this guy - almost identical to their first goal <doh>

    I think we will need more than three: 47 - 50pts usually required to stay up<cheers>
