Norwich City v Sunderland Monday 26th September 2011 KO 8.00pm (2am here Sleep deprivation again!) As always please predict the score but as from this week I am introducing a new dimension - Guess the Penalty time! Guess the time of the first penalty against Norwich City. 10 points if you are within 5 minutes of the time the penalty was awarded (scored or not) 5 points if you said there was going to be a penalty and there was but not within 5 minutes of your guess. 5 points if you guess there will be no penalty against Norwich City and there wasn't one awarded(shock, horror) I'm going for a 3-1 win for City with no penalty.
Because we are Norwich fans! No point being pessimistic, and we are not being disrespectful to Sunderland, most of us have a great deal of respect for Sunderland, what with the 'friendly cup' and your manager being an ex captain of ours
A quick note to Sunderland fans - you are welcome to return week after week to participate if you wish
I may just do that mate. Always had a soft spot for you lot, I think it comes from when I lived in Watton. I was living there when we played you in the FA Cup semi. The morning of the game I was just off to the pub (RAF Watton) to watch the game when my then missus demands a shop run. So off I pop to the local shop like a good little boy. Anyway I was resplendent in my Red and White top and looking forward to the game. I pulled up at the shop and as I was going inside I noticed two coaches pull up. Needless to say they were Norwich coaches on the way to Wembley. (You boys were a proper force back then) I don't think I have ever bought a pint of milk so quick but I didn't need to fret. No bother, just a few looks as if to say "What the **** is that Mackem doing here" That said, I was wondering the same thing.
