You're right. Back to watching to see if our lot can become a Dream Team. 

Going to end up a Mile High if this continues. (God that show was shi..........)

With all these tv puns flying around here, I hope I don’t get to see The Equaliser tonight. 

I’m Shaw we’d have scored a second from a corner if Taylor was playing.

With Ryan at left back, and Liam Manning in the opposite dugout, this really is turning into a Family Affair.

Let's hope that means winning both Home and Away.

We consistently have huge gaps between our players (other than the back 3).

When a team hits us on the break, you can see why we are in trouble.

This style will get you slaughtered, on Russell Martin proportions, when you dont have better players than the other side

Obviously intending on using Taylor this season then. Him and Matsuki coming on. Interested to see what Matsuki does, he literally didn't touch the ball when he came on the other day.

[Farmer Saint]

Fraser!

[Colinjb]

WEE MAN!!!!!!!!!!

 

Are we sure Russell Martin isn't already in charge at Carrow Road?

Wee man, good start to the season for him.

Hope we don’t see too much of Holby Bishop in our penalty area next month. 

Will Still will feel like he is in El Dorado when we beat Portsmouth

Appropriate the Archer(s) scores on a night of soap opera puns

Fraser!

[AlexLaw76]

Hilarious defending 

0-2

[macca155]

Wee man

[John Boy Saint]

Tidy

[sockeye]

Fraserrrrr!!

[saintant]

Wee Man! He's deserved that.

[obelisk]

Play it forward to runners. Fraser gets on the end of it. 2-0.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Fraser!!!!!!!

 

Good reward for his hard work. 

[OttawaSaint]

Yesssss! 2-0!

[Saint Matty 76]

Player of the (incredibly brief!) season so far. Didn’t see that coming.

[Saint NL]

Great stuff.

A nice through ball, we need more of that 

[waylander]

Comedy defending but good finish

[Midfield_General]

More Martinesque defending, decent finish Fraser, 2-0. 

Fair play to him, he's been good tonight.

I know he's a bit battered but Wood has put some crunching tackles in today.

He has, hope though they don't send him The Bill for all the medical attention needed so far.

[davefizzy14]

Fraser 😊 get in!

Archer and Downs would for me be too similar to work.

AKA both shit?

[Suhari]

Another look at Matsuki then.

And the mysterious C Taylor.

We do have cover if he needs to see some Doctors. 

[SWLondon Saint]

The ghost of Russell Martin haunting Norwich's defence, that was absolute comedy...

[whelk]

Hurry with those Wembley hotels boys

[Jack]

Yeah I’d be booing if my team was losing to us, I think we’ve been awful

Wonder what The Bill would be for that? 

[trousers]

I thought that was an infringement on Fraser in the lead up to the goal but turns out it was only 'alf a fowl(er)

Keep a close eye on the Christmas Fund in the Vic.

Although linking to the British Leyland puns in the Transfer thread, Bill Treacher did the voiceover for the Allegro’s launch in 1972.

Looked off(Brook)side to me

[Saint_clark]

Suddenly moving it quickly and with confidence. Hopefully we just need a couple of results to turn around the mentality in the team. I still really like what Still is trying to implement here.

[obelisk]

That summed up Downes. Receives the ball with an opening to his right. Doesn't see it and instead plays it back where it came from putting Saints under pressure.

[Farmer Saint]

Charles should have scored.

Amazing what a bit of belief can do.

Oh, Stewart! Lovely build up.
