Way I see it, there are no stand out teams in the division. Most teams only seem able to string a couple of good performances together. Given the finances of Norwich coupled with PL experience, I still fully expect them to be up there at the end of the season. Positive for us is that when even having a poor outing, we can still get points at places like Norwich
All good points but wouldn't worry at all about games looking difficult on paper. Were losing games that look on paper like we should be winning and getting good points from the seemingly more difficult ones. Most teams are in the same boat except the Wallies, who dont look capable of beating anyone now.
You are probably right, and Derby are perhaps the closest thing to it at this time. They could have easily folded this season, having lost in the play-off final, but they are back to where they were last season, putting a run of wins under the belt. Don't get me wrong, I am not taking anything away from the Leeds performance. They did what they had to do, and that was to stop Norwich from having an easy time of it, so full credit for doing so and getting a point out of the game - even if was not easy on the eye for the Leeds following Alas, every team that visits Carrow Road is doing the very same - it's gonna be a long frustrating season I think.
Yeah good point! It's just this looks like the most difficult run we've had so far this season. This league is the most difficult league to predict in the country. I think we will get points from it but not back to back wins which is what I think we need at the moment.
Ah the good old racist card. Just as comical as the chelsea player accusing the ref of racially abusing him. Utter bollox, I'm sure if the wops, taffys, micks/paddies and jocks(to give a few examples) were to complain to the ref regarding racial derogatory remarks aimed at them on the pitch, then we'd have an incident in nearly every match.
Shako a good few years ago me and a couple of Millwall mates joined a pub football team, there were 2 Geordies, 2 Mancs, a jock,a Scouser, a paddy and 2 black blokes, we all got abuse especially one of the Geordies as he was ginger.
There was an Albino that used to live on the Aylebury Estate early 80s - now that poor sod had no chance. Was a black man with white skin, had ginger afro hair & pink eyes.
Unbelievable. Boxer loses fight, then knocks out referee... [video=youtube;qLE77n4h4-g]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLE77n4h4-g[/video]
[COLOR=#292929 !important]Police arrested six people at last night’s football match between Norwich City and Leeds.[/COLOR] [*=left]Email [*=left]Print Five were detained in connection with “an incident of disorder” in the bar area of the Jarrolds stand involving Leeds fans. Police said a smoke bomb was set off in the bar area during half-time, and they also dealt with minor incidents of disorder involving beer and food being thrown around. Police arrested five men aged 18, 24, 26, 31, and 53, in connection with a number of offences including drunk and disorderly, being drunk in a designated sports ground, and assaulting a police officer. A 50-year-old man was detained outside the ground at about 8.20pm after he became aggressive when being refused entry because he was drunk. The man was given a fixed penalty notice for being drunk and disorderly. Chief Superintendent Bob Scully said: “The match was a largely peaceful event and this isolated incident involved a small minority of supporters in the away stand which was promptly dealt with.” There has been a history of trouble surrounding the fixture, with sporadic skirmishes before and after the March 2010 Norwich v Leeds United clash. At the time, Norfolk Police said officers were “on top of the situation”, but some Norwich fans criticised the decision to allow Leeds fans to leave the stadium at the same time as home fans. In 2010, there were reports of confrontations between fans before the match on Prince of Wales Road and outside the ground immediately after the game, and police said they made “six or seven” arrests. Police had also been called to Dereham to deal with “rowdy behaviour” after 200 Leeds fans arrived in the town before the match, with one coach breaking down nearby.
MASSIMO Cellino’s trial over a second tax evasion charge has been delayed again after the judge in the case abstained from hearing it. According to Italian media, Dr Sandra Lepore has stepped aside and will allow a replacement to hear Cellino’s trial having previously convicted Leeds United’s owner of a separate tax offence. Lepore was due to rule on that allegation but has already overseen the case of Nelie, a different boat which Cellino was found guilty of failing to pay tax on during a hearing in Cagliari in March. he League’s board could attempt to bar Cellino for a second time if it finds that his offence in the Nelie case was deliberately dishonest, though Cellino’s conviction in that instance will be spent under UK law in March of next year. The League’s rules on owners and directors do not apply to spent convictions. The trial was due to proceed in Cagliari today but Lepore has removed herself from proceedings to prevent a conflict of interest.
Load of fuss about nothing. The ironic thing is if Jerome had called Bellusci a wop bastard it wouldn't have been considered racist. And as for stopping the game... The world's gone mad
