I'll be watching this. Haven't actually seen Norwich play other than the home game this season, so interested to see just how good they are.

If Tranmere play like they did against us I expect they'll get thumped. However they seem to have a nack of picking up the odd surprise result (ie. Southampton not long ago).

Pitch is in an AWFUL state after heavy rain all day.

need norwich for double with west brom 15/8 enhanced double with paddy power come on the canaries!

 

[jordanseagull]

Disaster start!

 

[sam86]

Oh wow!

Another penalty. Fraser Forster off. What a start.

Very harsh that, looking at the replay. Forster bought his arms in, certainly made no attempt to bring Moore down, I don't think.

 

[jordanseagull]

Never a pen!

"Sacked in the morning.."

 

[jordanseagull]

Holt....what a miss

Norwich are currently 16/1 on Bet365. Worth a couple of quid.

 

[jordanseagull]

Tranmere really are shit. 10 men Norwich have already hit the bat and had a goaline clearance.

 

[Mackenzie]

3-0

 

[We're the Stripes]

And yet it's now 3-0 Tranmere.

This is actually getting rather funny.

Shocking decision, blatant handball.

I have a Norwich supporting housemate so I am hoping to send him several mocking texts later if they end up losing. Still haven't forgiven him for covering the house in "Norwich 2 Brighton 1" posters for me to discover when I got home after the game in Feb.

Shocking decision, blatant handball.

What he said. Every time you think you've seen the worst piece of refereeing in recent times, somebody comes along and 'betters' it. What the f*** is the point of having a ref and a linesman looking at the same incident, where every single player, and all the fans, see a blatant handball, if they're going to fail to see something every other person in the stadium had seen? It beggars belief, that call. If a player doesn't perform, he loses his place, perhaps is released. A manager loses his job. Where is the accountability of the officials for such utter ineptitude?

The worst thing is, if Lambert complains about it too strongly, he'll get punished when it's the ref and lino who should be being suspended - from ALL football, not just bumped down to inflict their incompetence on a lower league - and forced to undergo a retesting of their abilities by the the FA.
