    The Canaries are only the sixth team in the history of the Premier League who have not recieved a yellow or red card in their opening three games.

    An isn't 5 the record? Allegedly, Neil Warnock got rid of Leon Cort as he didn't have enough bookings for a centre half, apparently he is suspicious of a centre half that doesn't get booked....

    A stark contrast to last season when we conceded a penalty in each of our first five games, as I recall <yikes>

    Art one point I thought we were trying to break that record this season. But didn't we get at least two red cards in the five opening games conceding penalties last season. One for barnett against Stoke and one for ruddy against Chelsea?

    Indeed we did, I think that we have personally done well to avoid any cards as its not like we haven't given away free kicks, a penalty and got stuck in.

    It was always said that the first season, newly promoted teams seemed to get hit harder with cards and decisions. Perhaps it really is true!
