Norwich with another "fine" win today.

Delia and the fans must be happy.

The latter as long as the former manages to stay off the pitch.

LET'S BE HAVING YOU!!

I think that she was drunk to be honest. Hopefully Norwich can stay up so we don't have another speech from Delia!

No doubt, some of the sherry that should have been pudding bound got consumed.

Yeah, they're my closet 2nd team. Spent five great years there.

Also be rooting for Sunderland now to stay up now that MO'N is in charge.

Norwich is a beautiful city. My folks are originally from there, and although I was born here, I try and visit my relatives every couple of years. Most recently I saw them play Bristol at home and Hull away in March in the Championship. They've got a good bunch of travelling fans.

Yeah, the whole of Norfolk is beautiful IMO with fens, broads, ancient woodland and great coastline. Just like a mini-England with their own culture, speak and way of life.

Went there also a couple of times the most memorable being a mid-week, league 1 game against Swindon in 2000ish who were well adrift at the bottom of the table and staring relegation in the face. Me and a friend decided to go and bolster the Swindon away support (from 24 to 26, actual number). With about 10 cops surrounding us.

Swindon won 2-0. I think they might have won 5-6 games all season!

Still have a lot of good friends there, been 5 odd years since I was back.

I guess you haven't heard of the new rule where you are allowed to clear off your line using an elbow?

Actually, neither did I.

or the new offside rule where you have to be 5 yards onside for a goal to be allowed...

or the Shawcross rule where he is allowed to pull players down in the penalty area

Sir Chris Hoy (4 times Olympic Cycling gold medalist) has been getting a bit of abuse from Spurs fans:

Quote:
Sir Chris Hoy on Twitter: "Still getting some rather amusing grief from Spurs fans! On the plus side I've learned some new 4 letter words today. #FoyNotHoy. Just for the record 1) I don't need glasses and 2) I do not lead a double life as an English Premier League ref. That's Chris Foy."

Hahahaha! RT “@chutneymutt: #Chris Hoy, not only are you a useless c**t of a referee, you also support Stoke.”

Suarez's racism hearing begins today. Should have news of it pretty soon.

'Arry, the wheeling, dealing basterd, got his wish!

Both Manchester clubs are now in the Europa league while Spurs have, *air quotations* crashed out...*/air quotations*

That might be a huge stroke of luck for them.

I don't know if they purposely crashed out

but when VdV is left out of the squad and Modric/Bale etc. don't even travel to away games he's not exactly going for it

I have no problem with it, at this point the regulars would have started playing and it would have taken it's toll, the youfs got some experience in Europe which is a good thing. If they weren't pushing for a CL spot I wish they would go for it

I never understood why the Evertons and Villas of the world never made a push to win it, they would have a good shout and it's a lot more likely than top 4 for them
