    I don't think Gunnar fits that bill after his last few performances!

    Medel would have been one the last players to take off & he looked a very unhappy bunny.

    Luck? We worked hard all game and got a well earned point! Apart from the dodgy goal at the end which wasn't given, that was lucky!

    And a possible penalty that Norwich had a good shout for, seen them given.

    Yay! We didn't lose! Marshall is quality, something we already knew.

    Yes, very lucky!

    A bit of inspired goalkeeping, and packing the box helped mind, but a 2 or 3 goal margin would not have flattered Norwich today.

    Any points picked up on the road are bonuses. I feel quite happy with a point. You can argue that Norwich deserved to win from stats (can't really disagree <laugh>) but they didn't. Luck or no luck.

    Happy with that. They battered us first half but Marshie kept us in it. We had a couple of good chances too. Good tactical changes evenef it up second half. Nearly a bizarre end again, phew. Glad for a ref with some common sense. Mr Taylor please note!

    It was a goal Bridgend. The referee had no real reason to disallow it as he did play the game back into action. Two wrongs do not make a right.

    Looks like we are a very lucky team. Hope it continues into the next few games. <laugh>

    Hand ball has to be intentional though.

    We seemed to get our game plan backwards today. Would have thought start solid and then open up.
    Knew we had a really tough game today over the moon with the point. Our record at Carrow road is ****. When a brilliant striker scores to win a game that's class when our top class keeper makes saves its luck. We aren't afraid to let people shoot from distance because of Marshall, it's part of the way we defend.
    Norwich should have won but don't excuse their poor finishing and dismiss our top class keeper by calling it lucky. They've had an issue scoring this season.
    Points like that will go a long way to helping us stay up.

    Above all else, this is what is getting on my bloody wick! We just didn't look like scoring, and I dare say if you were outplayed by most other teams in the PL, they way you were today, Cardiff would have been well and truly beaten, and that is a real worry for me as a Norwich supporter. We should have strolled the game, we didn't and ultimately only have ourselves to blame <wah>

    Get a life. Both managers have said we would have walked in an equaliser in if it had stood.
    Only thing allowing it does is shaft the people who correctly bet the 0-0.

    Just watched Fer on SSN he said he meant to do it. Wanted to win. What a prick.

    Maybe, but goals change games. If you score maybe you go on. Maybe you settle a little and we respond. We were rubbish 1st half. 2nd half our plan was working and you needed to score to change the pattern.

    True that goals change games, and I reckon had we scored 1 in the first half, a 2nd would have followed quickly unless Malky made the changes after the first goal. The way Malky set it up for the 2nd half though - sheesh, he would take a point on 46 minutes, hence he tried to flood the midfield and play a 4-5-1. The only positive I can take is that we still dominated the 2nd half, and of course the negative is that we can't bloody well score!

    He didn't break any rules. Survival in the league is more important than some punters £10 bet.

    A point away at Norwich is a very good result, Did we get lucky or did we defend resolutely and Marshall do his job.

    Malky has his game plan and is sticking with it if the other dont score you dont lose, 1 point is better than none
