SNSUN

There are quite a few Norwich streams... (Gets coat before backlash...)

I always use the Royal Oak. Granted it gets busy in there, but that makes for a better atmosphere. Shows the lunchtime games too so a good place to go to early enough.

Would be a cracking signing, far better than had we gone for Sinclair. For me we were short creatively even before Puncheon left, now we really need at least 1 reinforcement in this area. Moses would be a top signing. Hopefully we can pull this off, or at least try and bring in an AM similar to his quality.

I told Bearsy he had a small penis. He didn't like it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HqfQ67aTv_I&feature=player_detailpage

I bet Mayuka's been desperate to do his dance for us - and a long time he's had to wait too!

Would we ever truly trust Turnbull with the CB position in the Premier League? I feel that's the one position where our Academy players will struggle to get a game in the first team. Ergo, of the photo above, I reckon it'd be Turnbull that will be the "Terry Cooke" of that photo.

Terry Cooke? EDIT: Yep.

It's good......but it's not quite Carling.

There are many TOTW but seems the one the OP is talking about is stat based by Opta. http://sport.uk.msn.com/football/premier-league-team-of-the-week-27-august-2013-122321#image=1

? JWP got in the Bleacher Report's TOTW fwiw.

Relax, even Notts County scored against Liverpool. We're just giving the Barnsley faithful something to cheer. That should be the kick up the bum we need to go on and get 6.

He already has some. You can't see that they're arseless chaps from the front...

They're never truly happy though unless they're planning something evil. They're an evil species. Look at how evil they are... ...so fwiw they deserve to be punched. *So that photo isn't one of our family parrots, but demonstrates perfectly how evil they look. They crouch down like a velociraptor. See? If Pompey win the JPT (which they won't), I would definitely smack them. I wouldn't, however, smack a velociraptor. :-)

I still partake in the art of Polly-bashing, but with our continued rise up the leagues they've been a lot more jovial these past few seasons!

Oops, wrong log in! ;-) So I utter: "Congratulations good neighbour upon your marvellous success in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy!" Then the ruffian from Portsmouth was heard to say "Forsooth neighbour, for it is one more trophy than you will win this season." Regrettably, anger overcame me and I muttered "While you are most correct good sir, I can take some small comfort that my wealthy team purchased Italy's International striker and are now enjoying the fruits of his labour whilst you attempt not to soil your knickerbockers over whether our former striker David Connolly gets injured." I am ashamed to say I made the poor chap cry... Better?

I be all like "well done Skates" and they be all like "more than you lot gonna win this season" and I be all like "you right bruv, guess I just make do wiv watching Italy's national striker bang em in that our millions of pounds bought us while you try not to crap your pants over whether David Connolly gets injured or not" and they be all like crying and ting.

I've longed to touch human flesh for years... then last night it finally happened.

In a way I'd rather it didn't get worldwide press. It's bad enough the top English clubs know how good our academy is (and repeatedly try to buy its products) without the whole world cottoning on. (If they haven't already...)

Very winnable, but equally very loseable as Norwich will be all the more determined to get that first win. The wife and all the in-laws (Norwich fans) will be going to this one, and I'll be stuck at work (as usual) so I really hope we pick something up. I'd take a draw, but while Norwich are learning how to integrate their new signings into their team, it's a good time to play them to pick up all three points. I heard Norwich described as awful against Hull. This pleases me.

...and some people were stuck at work while everyone else enjoys the B/H. Don't forget the shift workers! :-( ;-)

I would love to see Isgrove in this one and see what he truly has to offer. Before Puncheon left, I thought we are an attacking midfielder light, and now he's gone I think we're two AM's light, but this is Isgrove's chance to show he can be the answer for one of those AM spots. For the other, hopefully Pochettino and Cortese still have an ace up their sleeve. Can there be any result other than a Saints win here? Well sure, which is why I hope we don't make wholesale changes. Something like: Davis Chambers Fonte Yoshida Clyne Morgan Cork Isgrove Davis JRod Lambert Subs: Gazzaniga, Jos, Fox, Wanyama, Ramirez, Lallana, Mayuka. Do we include Osvaldo or give him another full week working on training with his new teammates? Coming up with a team for this shows we're starting to have a good squad. Resting everyone who started today, our team would be: Davis Clyne Yoshida Hooiveld Fox Cork Davis Isgrove Ramirez Guly Osvaldo which would beat most sides in the Championship IMO. (Isgrove's unknown contribution aside...) I think we'll see a team more akin the the former than the latter though.

3-1 Home win

I don't think we're going to "smash" anyone this season by a big scoreline, but I do think we'll win MOST of the games we're expected to win, especially at St Mary's. We're stronger defensively than we were last season and now we have Osvaldo, hopefully we can put away some of the many chances we create. To that end we should win tomorrow, but Sunderland are so unpredictable at the moment with all their new signings. Lawrenson asks on his predo league whether Di Canio is a genius or an idiot. I'd suggest the latter, but with all those new players, they should be fighting hard for a permanent starting place. I'm hastily going for a 3-1 win, Lambert to carry on his goalscoring form with a brace and a slammer from Wanyama. (Heh, that rhymes.)
