What the hell is he playing at and how the hell did you spot it?!

We have some of those types here. They’ll say something like, “My mom is from Coventry and my dad is from Norwich. I grew up in a house divided so I support both”.

weird to go in public like that.

Similar in Lesta. You’ll hear ‘My dad, uncle, grandad, cousin, and second cousin all supported the Foxes. He was such a nice bloke I couldn’t refuse’

Great play by City, our forwards need to stop panicking and take some control and the goals will flow. Thought EMC was outstanding just need him to get in the box with the ball at his feet and we will get penalties like sweets

By some distance Norwich's tactics yesterday were the worst I have ever seen in all my years. They deserve to be relegated if you ask me. Appalling!

Let’s just say their shirt colour is pretty apt

A lot of those shots we had were blocked. Shows how resolute their defending was.

ultimately we had 28 shots but 4 on target.

we played really well, deserved to win. But to say they didn’t defend well is a bit misplaced. They came here knowing we were the better side and played to nullify our threat.

I’m confident we beat Leicester next week. If we can cut out the defensive mistakes,be a bit smarter in the opposition box - I think we can push the top 2

Never include when we hit the post as a shot on target which makes the stats look poorer than they actually were.

Wonder what happened to Benny Hill.

Biggest Crowd in the Championship.

If someone had said that a few years ago, they would have said you're having a laugh.

Criminal, what the hell do we have referees assistance for.

more of a pen than Wright's shout, Frank should complain about Gavin Ward and refuse to have him again, like Cooper did about Stroud a few years back. He was dogshit yesterday again.

So, straight after the game the first reaction was relief about the late equaliser fairly rapidly followed by frustration about not getting the win.
With the perspective of a day or two though, I have to compare the match to the one against them the year we came back to Cov from Brum. As I recall, we were 3-0 down after about 15 minutes and although we got a couple of goals back, we were totally outclassed.
On Saturday, the tables were completely turned. We were dominant and but for some poor finishing, dodgy refereeing and (to be fair) excellent defending, we could have had a QPR like result.
SHFWR!
