Alex Neil has certainly seen the whole Norwich City spectrum in his first two weeks, so as Rob says, maybe it'll do us good in the long run. The Bournemouth game was not typical of us this season. Cardiff was. Brentford saw us at our worst. Crazy to write him off after two wins and a defeat but he's going to have to get a response at Birmingham on Saturday. If he doesn't I fear that's probably going to see us drift for the rest of the season. I can't quite understand the criticism he's taken for his interview either - he was spot on in his assessments. The players need to know that they've been on easy street and it won't be tolerated.

I don't think it's about the 'assessments', Supers, but the fact that he chose to do it so publicly and given his commitment to honesty, he might have discussed the preparation and tactics for the match as part of the problem. Lambert rarely criticised players in public, if at all. It would seem that Neil sees this public confrontation as appropriate, but only time will tell whether it's effective. If it is, few will complain. We all hope there will be a response at Birmingham and we get back on track for a play-off place, but automatic promotion has all but gone now.
 
Tbh I don't want us to go up this season, we'd be ripped to bits in the Prem.

I'd prefer we got as far as the playoffs and if we go up I'll not be upset but equally if we don't go up I'll be happy.

I don't know about tinkering what we could really do with is getting key players back from injury so we CAN field our first 11 (whoever might be in that now)

I don't blame AN for Brentford you don't expect someone to get things right from day one in the job, we're all human after all (well most of us)

I wonder if there are some who think they're too good and don't need to put 100% in after reading that article in the Archant rag?

Be interesting if we're going to sign anyone?
