    When that cheating bastard dived in our box, did Luke try to get him back to his feet by pulling his hair?

    Their goal looked just like the one we conceded against (I think) Stoke with the Keystone Cops defending.

    Our throw ins are still poor.

    I wish we would pass quicker rather than letting them get their men in position before we move forward.

    We don’t deserve to be in front but surely we will improve for the second half. Lots of our players seemed under par this first half and Norwich are getting all the loose balls going to their players. Frankie noticed they were getting the ‘rub of the green’ and you just knew we would end up getting more bookings than them. Maybe Onion should kick somebody in the face as that seems to be acceptable.

    Anyway, let’s hope RLB sees what we are doing wrong and sorts it out for a storming second half, Poveda coming on (89 minutes)

    Moving the ball slowly is our biggest problem, it stifles all creation.

    I love that Jobe is always the first one into a confrontation to defend his teammates (or boss)!
