    Joke Commentary Yesterday

    It has to be unexpected to be funny (not claiming I'm funny, but I try). I read Jimmy Carr's book 'The Naked Jape' many years ago - it's a really good analysis of what makes jokes funny. And he's the master of the one-liner.

    Joke Commentary Yesterday

    I quite like the fact that someone mildly incompetent like Clive can make a career of watching the game for free every week and talking. It gives me hope that I might yet, even as I approach 60, become an astronaut.

    Dabo

    Yes, I agree. We can turn down low offers now. How much do we reckon? Could be as high as £10m IMO.

    Actually, let's get rid of all the emojis. They express nothing that cannot be perfectly well communicated with words. And we avoid the confusion that I experience every time someone posts that their foot has been stood on. <winky face emoji>

    I'd like to see this emoji's :ROFLMAO: title changed to "someone stood on my foot". Nick, you have my sign off to make the change.

    Dabo

    I reckon Dabo is gone in the summer. A good season in the championship and he'll attract large bids from lower teams in the Premiership. It'll be the same as always: "We cannot stand in his way". If Robins is smart he's already scouting his replacement.

    Please don't let's ruin this thread with politics. My fault entirely, but my intention was taking the piss out of thinking that a local commentary would be neutral - actually nothing to do with politics.

    January transfer window

    I'm generally happy with the squad. I like Allen but I reluctantly accept now that he's not going to prosper in this league so I'd be happy to see him exchanged for someone young with potential from the lower leagues (or Walsh). And also maybe exchange Baka for the same (but a powerful, tall...

    Party Political Broadcasts are the same - completely biased and no balance at all... it's all about how great their party is and how rubbish the others are. It makes me so cross.

    Looked to me that Wilson also got the ball and then their player fell over Wilson's sprawling body.

    He was offside a lot. He wasn't terrible but didn't do that much... however whilst he was on Norwich had most of the ball. Maybe.

    Well done City. Cannot help thinking that if we'd played a full strength side, given their injuries, we might have won that - even with their dodgy penalty.

    If I wanted to gaze at Delia Smith for 30 seconds I'd buy her bloody cook books. We missed Walker's goal midweek because they were showing something else. Terrible editing,

    These replays are pissing me off. Just show the fucking game. EDIT: the long still shots of people watching the game are pissing me off too.

    Shocking penalty decision - the ref cannot possibly tell what happened from where he is stood. City look much better in the last 15 minutes and it's great to see Dabo back at his best. Why didn't Allen go down? We continue to be far too naive.

    My sister's husband is a Norwich fan. We were supposed to be making a weekend of it in Norfolk... shame.

    He got back on track after 5 minutes or so. I reckon Oggie turned him off and on again.

    Player Ratings

    He gave an update on the Sheff Wednesday score and then seemed to be stuck in a loop. I reckon Oggie wrote something on a piece of paper for him, because he then randomly said Cardiff when talking a about a player.

    Incredible result that. Playing against the 22 men of Cardiff and Sheffield Wednesday and we still manage to win.
