  1. Agree, the substitutions and reaction to going behind made all the difference. Until then there was a lot of awful stuff, slow passing that was easily read, Vestergaards “pass” leading to their goal was so telegraphed by his stance and slow motion everyone in the stadium could see what he was going to do and sure enough it was intercepted and we were in the s**t. Sloppy balls behind the teammate , killing any momentum and progress, risky balls when numerous players had committed to forward runs, a lack of movement, a lack of wanting the ball and wanting to take responsibility at throws and free kicks in particular. Ayew was never threatening to go beyond his marker, it was a constant dead end. Mavididi tried to stretch them and go beyond them, DeCordova-Reid was playing on the front foot, always looking to hurt them with positive forward balls, trying to make something happen. Maybe it was the situation of trailing then drawing and of running out of time but it was an onslaught incomparable with the previous 70 minutes. The one constant was James, gave his all for 96 minutes .
  2. Just submitted a poster for the Norwich tourist board:- “Come and see Carranza and Daka score goals at Carrow Road today. Norfolk Enchants”
  3. He’ll look like man who’s never played there. He doesn’t understand the angles and movement required. He has no signs of being a quality finisher. He’ll be caught offside all game. He’ll have no understanding with the wingers or no.10. Which in summary makes him on a par with Daka and Coranza, so GERRIMIN !
  4. Yep, I like the idea of a front three of Monga, Mavididi and Fatawu. Let them switch and rotate as often as they like as long as opposition full backs still get tracked. Could be like the Harlem Globetrotters on acid……or the Keystone cops
  5. And it’s Norwich “Couldn’t hit a barn door with a banjo this season” 2 Leicester “Seventy Million Pound Subs Bench” Nil.
  6. I can feel the beginning of a “Four Candles” sketch coming on!
  7. It’s a tough call, my shout in the summer was to offer Danny Ings 1 year but so far for Sheff Utd he has no goals in 8 games. We should have been in a position to poach someone who had a good championship season last season but finances ruled that out. Were left with a flop, a veteran and essentially a trialist. Best hope if for one of the youth to come in but can they get double figures in their first season?
  8. I remember in the 80’s Bananarama used to look a lot like the girls who worked at my hairdressers, dress like them and similar hair and make up etc. I had a dream that they worked there, Siobhan was washing my hair and Keren came over and asked if I’d like any “extra services” in the back room. Couldn’t believe my luck, Coffee and biscuits from someone I had a big crush on!
  9. The last remaining of the holy trinity - Mario’s, Granby and Grimsby’s. There was a time at School (Lancaster Boys) where due to industrial action by staff refusing to cover lunch duties we had to leave the site and fend for ourselves. It was Grimsby’s most days, Fish cake, beans and chips with half a baguette for about £1.25! Went back about three years ago, prices had changed a bit and the food was barely lukewarm. Always remember a mate with mumbled / slurred speech asked for Salveloy and chips. They brought a couple of chips over on a tray and held them in front of him. He said “What’s this?” (Actually “Whashish”). They replied “You said Let’s have a look at your chips”! I’m left with one favourite chippy in Sheringham, that looks and smells like a proper chip shop, served by a guy who looks like he’s been out all night catching the fish himself and one in Caister too. Worlds gone
  10. But damaged and to the wrong adddress!
  11. 7th in championship, might get in play-off’s might not (5th year running ) The rest of the family members at the club become more prominent but Top is still at the top. Rudkin still has the compromising photo’s of Top so of course he’s still here too. Choudhury, now grey thin-haired with huge beard, playing centre half and captain. Jakub in goal, Silko Thomas in and out of side. Luke Thomas obviously rubber stamped on the team sheet for the next decade / eternity. Soumare is Filbert. Monga but folllowing a couple of bad injuries didn’t achieve the fee we needed, “just” 45 million or so. Nelson went for 40 million. Potential ? Finley Vardy is breaking all goalscoring records at Schoolboy level, running very very fast. Briggs established in first team. New manager of renamed “The King Power Foxes”, Ben Chilwell is making Cooper look popular. Hot dogs are delivered by automated drones (no change then). Seagrave sold to Nottingham Forest, we’re back at Belvoir Drive . Rumours of new stadium at Saffron Lane Athletics site accelerate beyond me having a recurring dream that it happens one day. Half time “entertainment” is an ABBA-esque 3D Hologram show of Showaddywaddy / Englebert / Kasabian / Rustie Lee.
  12. Can we source one with a retractable roof? I want to include Vestergaard but the words “Vestergaard” and “Mini” (bus) don’t fit well (and nor would he)! One of those Zoo / safari trailers perhaps .
  13. Are we nearly there yet sir?
  14. We needed to occupy them in their half for more than ten seconds a time, that’s the best way of eating up time not sitting in inviting pressure until the inevitable happens.
  15. But it wasn’t a goal scoring opportunity - it was Mavididi going through
  16. Was just slating Mavididi for messing up the previous break and then that happens! It should help. Should.
  17. What is this strange concept of which you speak
  18. Yesss, Fatawu avoids a red. Gerrimm away from the bench just in case!
  19. Got enough notepads there guys, it looks like a waiters convention
  20. I knew it. Begovic, infamous time waster of years past falls foul of the new rules
  21. I need another 7 pints!
  22. I think “Skipp” does it, a metaphor for “anonymous ambling bloke who looks like a stressed 45 year old plumber in a football kit”
  23. How much longer…..until we see Monga ?
  24. But what a goal it was, well worth the other 49 blanks and every penny of his salary since then
