good point but no luck at all. blatant penalty missed and numerous deflections in the Norwich box all fell the home sides way.
having said that our final ball was shocking. Rothwell was impressive tonight

Yes my thoughts too. Given the disruption and injuries away against a team who are good at home that’s a good point. I’d take a point Friday too. Fingers crossed Gruev not out long.. I just pray injuries won’t cost us this season..

That’s 2 blatant pens now we’ve not been given which would have won us the game (Burnley the other which I think we’d have gone on to win if got) refs are shocking at this level

Farke got some criticism on socials tonight for his subs but I can’t see what else he could do. He needed to wrap gnonto and Ramazanni in cotton wool, the are our only hope for goals at present and are vital for Friday

Probably a point gained overall. The subs killed all the momentum

We all have the benefit of hindsight, but I would have been tempted to maybe just pull Joseph for Bamford and let the rest play the game out. We were looking the most likely team to win it and Piroe especially gave the ball away time and time again putting us under pressure. He showed in his cameo why he should never be near the starting line up. The ref was all over the place with his decision making and that didn’t help us. I thought we looked better with Rothwell on for Gruev, more forward thinking and more penetration. We’re still not getting past teams down the flanks which limits us offensively, and to go nearly 160 corners without scoring is a joke really. If we find too many ways to not score goals it’s gonna make it difficult for us. A point’s not a disaster, but Friday’s result will give it more context.
