Ha! Norwich wearing an away jersey. I remember then getting slaggings for that on Fantasy Football back in the day. "Who would they wear it against? Brazil?!"

Fahey playing the holding roll atm for Birmingham. Good practice for the Trap system.Quote:

ideally he would be playing higher up the pitch. Why curb his natural instincts?
Not sure I understand the meaning of your post, but I think you mean they were playing in green?Quote:

It is pretty unusually to see a premiership team wearing green I can't remember it ever happening before but that probably says
more about my memory than reality.
Incidentally with Wolves wearing orange all you needed was the ref and lines mean wearing white to complete the Irish flag!
It's mentioned here.

Perhaps they were making a hint to Trap about Wes?Quote:
Norwich are wearing a green kit for some unknown reason.
They did have green in 2004-2005 though

Liverpool have had a couple of dark green away kits down through the years.Quote:

Torquay also
So you're all saying Fantasy Football lied to me?!
Part of me has just died inside...
I think Cambridge United also wear yellow jerseys, although they play non-league football at present.
Nice assist there from Hoolahan to set up Norwich's opener. Bursts in to the box on the right side, pulls it back to Surman who is standing at the 18 yard line with a chip, and Surman blasts it in to open the scoring
a chip or a crisp?Quote:

I can't see him making the starting XI in a 4-4-2, but I think he'd be a shoo-in if we played 4-5-1.
I'd probably have him on the bench.
If Trap was less loyal I reckon Fahey's place would be most under threat. McCarthy still has work to do to make the plane.
Whelan, Andrews, Gibson are all certainties if fit.
Fahey very likely, McCarthy good chance, Hoolahan deserving but unlikely. Fair assessment?
I'd take him. That cross was sublime. He has an engine on him as well which should appeal to the Trap. He's not one of those flair players who can't be bothered to track back.
Anytime I have watched him, he almost never tracks back. Still, I would still have him in the squad as his decent form has gone beyond just being a purple patch. Although I wouldn't start him (it's too late to move away from two defensive midfielders), I would use him as an impact sub if we were chasing a game.Quote:

Goal Hoolahan...Simeon Jackson chips in a little cross from the left side of the box, Hoolahan nips in front of Caldwell and lifts the ball over Al-Habsi on the volley from about 6 yards...1-0.
The operational word in that goal is that defensive statue called Caldwell, but even if Caldwell did actually move his foot a few inches closer to the ball, there was a 50/50 chance of him slicing the ball into his own net.
Wes did well to stick his foot in but that has to be a prime example of the most inept defending ever seen by a centre half.
