Yay, am home for this, and I can't tell you how much I am looking forward to going...

Sounds like Attansio has defused the tennis ball protest for now by shelving plans for the minute, and I suspect they will re-emerge when we start winning.

Saw a snippet where Sarge was sounding pretty pissed off at his lack of service, it will be interesting to see if Manning picks up on this veiled threat of "start feeding me or I'm off in January".

Just looked and Hull are 8th, Christ.

Was hoping the axe would have fallen by now on Knapper, Manning and Webber!

I think the Duffy situation is interesting.

MA clearly thinks he should be in the team.

LM and BK obviously don't.

If he's back in the team it looks like MA has called the shots and undermined LM.
But if he's not back in the team and the shitshow continues MA will be questioning why his advice hasn't been heeded.

If a return to the team coincides with an upturn in form then questions will be asked why he was ever dropped.

And so on.

Hmmm, not sure about that. Seems pretty negative.

Not convinced by the selection. 2 of 3 centre backs have played very little football. A huge pivot away from the Topic / Medic formations of early season.
Mattsson has spoken well in the media and seems one lad who seems up for it, which has been a surprise given he is the newest recruit. I like the talk. Need to see it on the pitch. And to be honest, talk is talk and it's now simply about results.

If we do go 1-0 down then I still think the crowd will show their feelings even after the owner's visit.

Before I saw the team sheet I felt strongly that we would get a win today.

Kvistgaarden and Forson back on the bench gives us an option or two.

Massive game in the sense of the shape of this season.

Should be starting them though.

If, and a big if...we can actually perform in two halves they are still good options.
Should be two up really. At least I don't feel we're watching a relegation team.
Mattsson, Makama, Schlupp look good. Most of the team do in fact.
Quietest I've heard the ground.

We can't perform in two halves. Half time talks seem to fail every time. Same pattern in this game as for most this season. Keep doing the same things and you'll get the same results. Pity they don't look at those stats.

Having seen the usual 45 minute team today and the same old result. Does Manning not know that one of the accepted definitions of madness is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result or outcome? Play with a back four in a four-four-two and see if something different happens. It can't get any worse, With the other two horrendous errors in our own penalty area not punished, it could easily have been four-nil in the second half. If Mark A's USA reputation is based on building a great baseball stadium, his acolytes at CR will be able to build what they like, the seats will be empty , as many of them were today. Alienating your loyal fan base is a recipe for disaster. Speaking of which (disasters),which is the exit door for Manning, Knapper and Zoe Webber? And how soon?

Sounds like LM knows or feels like he's done, just waiting for the pay off.

He’s changed a team of also rans into consistent winners. Brewers divisional winners again this year and in the final four for the ‘World Series’

Norwich long term future is in decent hands providing he doesn’t Continue to allow idiots to think they can treat supporters in an off hand way. It doesn’t work like that in England, that he is learning.

The immediate issue is Mr Manning treating supporters in an off hand way

The bloke is convinced that he can win consistently playing the utter bore ball he does. The frustration of what is served up permeates from the crowd to the players, who are just waiting to go a goal down.

Start with the pitch for now.

Oh dear, a losing streak like this is hard to turn around. I am pretty sure that LM is partly at fault. But I am very sure that BK has been massively incompetent. How the fuck is this gormless twat still getting paid.
