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👍

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.

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!

Haven't been on here since Saturday so only getting chance to comment

I am a big believer that most of the time in football you get what you deserve, but if we hadn't have got a goal on Saturday it genuinely would have been a complete and utter travesty, I do not buy all this Norwich were excellent at the back, we still carved out 28 chances if we had our shooting boots on we would have racked up QPR numbers

A big and historically good footballing side like Norwich City setting up like that against us we should be taking as a compliment - I could not watch that every week, dire
