Hands up! I give in! White flag waving!
Bloody Martin Tyler on Sky yesterday suggested Norwich are punching above their weight.

I for one will not or would not have been happy to finish 17th. Just cast your minds back to the end of last season and the stupid scrap at the bottom of the Premiership, anyone could have gone down, some stayed up by other teams winning or drawing or goals scored, or some other obscure means FFS. Would any of you be really happy in that senario? We've been relegated, it ****ing well hurts, and I don't want to be anywhere near that situation again no matter what the circumstances. We are where we are because we deserve to be there, it's not luck or a fluke, but the problem with that is that expectations are on a par, and so they should be. Why supporters assume that we will be relegated or survive by the skin of teeth is quite astonishing, especially as most of the post's on here are in the positive. Great manager, great set of committed players, great support, great CEO, why not great expectations?
I was dissapointed with the Wigan game, it was the result more than anything, the performance wasn't brilliant, but the commitment and effort was there, so you have to look at it as a reasonable score line. I thought Surman had a complete stinker, and Croft's wasn't on his game, Hoops lost the ball too many times for me, but on the whole the team tried. I would just like to add at this juncture, that Morison looked a different player from his last few games, I just wish his header had gone in, it would have given him a bit more confidence.
I have posted on another thread, that I lost count of fans making comments like, "if they're going to play like that I'm not coming again", why would they think or say that? I've seen worse this season! But it is what the expectation level is, simply because of our performances and league position. I don't think people should be berated for having expectations.
Redruth, I think you made a lot of sensible and valid comments, I think us older supporters see things a little different to the younger ones, but we are ALL fans, right?
