Good result, bit boring but I think that's the championship to be honest. It's just low quality optimistic football at the best of times. At the worst it's comical errors that decide things.

Enough positives to take from that. Looked fit until the end, gave it a go in the second half. Thompson added stability in midfield. Johansson excellent again. Just didn’t fall for Cannon but he’s getting opportunities. A fair result in the end.

Enda outfield MOM for me
A bit more composure last third. Terrible ball by Cannon when we had 2 runners in on goal.
Better side after Thompson for Burger
Wilmot with a couple of important blocks
Great saves from Vic

Decent Point. Thought we were excellent second half. Such a shame Gallaghers out as are our 2 DMs as we’d be a match for anyone with them in. Bit frustrating with the final but kept at it. Far easier on the eye now. I think we would have been better with Gallagher was missed.

A win mid week and maybe we can think it’s turning around A big win and two draws, plus conceding only two goals, would suggest that we have established a platform from which to push on. I always feel that a draw or two after a bad run helps to press the reset button.

Coming out of one of these international interruptions and grab a tie with Norwich - I'll take it.

Building blocks are looking good. A win midweek and it cements this as a good point.

For sure Gally would've probably given us thet extra edge to win in the second half and the injuries are worrying BUT how many would've gladly taken a point before the match? Shame we didn't grab a late winner but positives to take. We came out fighting second half, kept energy levels up, didn't drop our heads and injected some atmosphere back with the supporters. We've got to stay patient, stick at what we're supposed to be doing, stay confident and move on to the next game with a positive mindset...and the players have got to do the same

I saw a lot of similarities to the Swansea game today.
The first half they were all over us, another Johansson special kept us in it. Second half we were asking them a lot of questions and Norwich seemed to run out of ideas, giving possession away cheaply and we were winning nearly every loose ball.
We desperately need to get some steel in our midfield to set the tone straight from kick off and dictate the play rather than relying on goalkeeping heroics as we're not going to keep getting away with it.
There are building blocks there that can be worked upon, I just hope Pelach sticks with it and manages to find the balance we need.
Overall I actually enjoyed the second half, the players are clearly buying into what Pelach is asking of them and showed the grit required at this level.

Despite the fact that I thought they were poor second half I think Norwich will be fighting for atleast top 6 this season. They had the vibe of a team that could go up a gear if needed, that's the kind of aura we need to try and emulate.

Thought we were poor first half and lucky to go in level. Second half we were excellent and unlucky not to win the game. Very encouraging that we are finishing games stronger which is a sign the players are getting fitter. Decent result against a decent side, now to follow it up with 3 points against Brizzle.

I am impressed with him. Opinions eh..... everyone has their own. I think he's great in so many ways. Just that when he's RW on a 4-4-2 he's missing opportunities to really torment the opposition by only cutting in. He must be easy to mark just show him the outside

I was bored shitless for long spells tbh. We are basically too lightweight in midfield and upfront. It's a real pity that Gally couldn't get a decent run in the team. Burger has developed into a right fanny.

Good point better energy and structure and signs of decent coaching and collective spirit . Squad looks horribly thin and clearly we miss gallwgher terribly as feared we win today with him and get more legs and rotation out wide , but in terms of getting to 50 that’s a decent point and ideally we get at least another Wednesday despite their improvement today .

Much better 2nd half but still not sure where we are going as a team, we’re not a possession based team, not a counter attack team and I can’t discern what we really are. For the first time in a long while we had a plan. Willing to mix going long as we have 2 up with playing out. Even under pressure first half we had a passing shape to move from back to front. Burger and Moran were able to get into space and Bar and Million found space as inside forwards. Our defensive shape was also much better from the front. Long way to go but it feels like we might have a real coach for the first time in a while. Certainly welcome to see us be the better team second half and fitter.
