THIS GAME “DAN” BE WATCHED LIVE LEGALLY AND ILLEGALLY
Well here it is folks, it’s the top of the table clash that no other table can top unless it’s the same as this one and both sides are called Swansea City and Norwich City. And that’s a fact. Norwich are top of the league and have been mustard this season. Canary great Ernie Colman would be proud. It’s one of those games where once you get the top off the aroma will assault your taste buds like bird food. We are not trying to bull you here Tommy.

Norwich is the second county town of Suffolk near Ipswich, which is also in Suffolk but a far cleaner place than its local rival. In fact when Norwich was in Norfolk they hated it so much they moved to Suffolk. I went to Norfolk once. I didn’t stay there. They are also referred to as sheepshaggers' but of course their basic ability is lacking, the initial torment, the gaze into the eye upon capture, free sliding trouser zip, tentative but firm touch and almost leisurely movements means that Norwich have neither the training nor general mastery in sheep procurement and management. It’s a shame, but you can’t fake the truth.

Morris looked the most tired in injury time, doubled over hands on his knees. Maybe this 'no subs' thing is the right idea after all.
He remained aghast at the No Pen decision for his stonewall pen.
But, yeah looked out of puff

Solid performance despite having weaker possession stats. Hourihane looking very leggy last 10-15 mins and Lewis was blowing hard too. Both still need to get up to speed with fitness.
Telling that Cooper wasn't confident to make a change in midfield late on but if he'd had Smith on the bench, he surely would have.
Needs to rotate the squad a bit more or we'll blow up like Norwich are at the moment.

He's a big lump to be flying up and down the pitch, looks quick enough though, he'll need a few weeks to get up to speed, Championship is a hard league to jump into from another Countries football league, feel sure he would have scored if he hadn't been fouled, it was clearly a foul penalty all day long. I'm happy to give him a pass for a 2/3 weeks
Excellent win. What a strike by Hourihane for 2-0. We let them have the ball in the second half but they didn’t do much with it. Very creditable win and excellent performance. Well done the lads.

Needs to get up to speed, he was exhausted or seemed to be, too far off their defenders, which Ayew pointed out to him on several occasions. But no complaints from me, apart from the obvious penalty not given.
I was impressed with him, good touch, fast, running off the ball.
Good addition.

Bang on. The silence is golden from the interloping detractors. ' Cooper Out-ists' should hide, for quite some time please.
Cooper's post match interview, class. Just like our performance. Clear, concise, calm, collected, fluid, humble, professional. A Winning performance.

Did anybody hear the commentator claim that our short, weak, non commanding keeper got his 16th clean sheet of the season.
They were talking nonsense most of the game to be fair. Hinchcliffe makes it all up as he goes along. Don't think the half time punditry was any better.
Morris runs like DJ but probably twice the weight on him.

He will be fine, coming on trying to make an impact in a short time looks like he can be a threat when he grts upto speed. CH has struggled as well, mind you 3 goals has helped him. Wondering if our new pitch is spongy and playing heavy as Norwich looked very tired as well.

Well down Mr Cooper and our players. Outstanding.
If i recall correctly it was Curt and Leon who picked Mr Cooper. Great job by our club legends ðŸ‘ðŸ‘💪
Hourihane looks one hell of a signing 🇮🇪💚
Indeed. The whole club seem to be pulling in the right direction now. Long may it continue. We have created a situation where it is ours to throw away now. Hopefully we can keep it going and maybe even have a crowd to cheer the lads on at the end.
You have mission in life to hold out your hand,
To help the other guy out,
Help your fellow man.
