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.

My feelings exactly, they do seem to be giving Cantwell a lot of space.
All good at the moment though, I just hope we don't sit back and defend 2nd half (my heart couldn't take 45 minutes of defending).
Snap, hope we can add to the lead, with them having to come at us a bit more, hopefully before 60/65 mins and then give Morris a runout and see what he got for 25+

We aren’t at our best and there’s no reason for it. Norwich are good but nowhere near as good as Brentford. A few passes astray for us - nerves maybe ?
Poor shout mun. We have for the most part been the better team. Played some of our best football all season, composed, calculated and a joy to watch.
Their midfield 3 are keeping them in the game. An excellent balance with Cantwell a real menace - THE missing piece on our jigsaw which MGW woulda filled. With a MGW we could win this league.
If Lowe gets a goal, the shackles will be off.

Let's hear from our armchair experts now as to who, when and why Subs should be made.........
Hindsight is such a wonderful thing, from an armchair, post match.

“A Steve Cooper masterclass so far” says the commentator.
Quite right.
Not just for the work on the pitch. Our fitness seems far superior to theirs. Cantwell looks like he used all his energy in the first 45mins and now struggling to cover back. We look as strong as ever in workrate.

this was a tongue in cheek post to those who love to Cooper bash
Yeah, I knows. Just accentuating your good point.
Ok, I'll go first - Morris for Lowe

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.
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.
A great believer in taking anything you like to wherever you want to.
