Karius Trippier Schar Lascelles Livramento Bruno Miley Willock Gordon Isak Barnes Subs: Gillespie, Krafth, Botman, Burn, Longstaff, Murphy, Almiron, Harrison. Non-playing matchday staff: Howe, Tindall, Hall.

The Mainz keeper, who looks like Karius, has just done a Karius.

You can hear Howe praising Tino in the “Toon in Training” video today. I’d be staggered if Tino wasn’t a good trainer, he seems a really down to earth grounded kid, and Trippier is basically his mentor. If he wasn’t putting the effort in then he wouldn’t be on the pitch.

Pretty sure the Durham chairman said a few weeks ago that Saudi’s had expressed an interest in owning a Hundred franchise. Be great if that was at Durham with the added bonus of mackem fewm thrown in.

Phil Giles being discussed https://x.com/deeebeee1988/status/1759674490550706468?s=46&t=El8GynjsImMyo-gea2gO0A

I did find it funny that Winter was raving about his database of players as if somehow it was Ashworth’s property. Nah - any work you do whilst at a club is property of the club. You don’t get to take it with you when you go.

Illegal schmelegal.

Be absolutely staggered if we don’t include a clause regarding they can’t bid for any of our players/staff for a certain period of time.

More than happy to release him immediately if they also withdraw any of their votes that restrict our trade through FFP

Dubravka Schar Lascelles Botman Trippier Livramento Bruno Miley Longstaff Gordon Isak Subs: Karius, Burn, Hall, Krafth, Ritchie, Barnes, Willock, Miggy, Murphy. Pack the centre of the park, keep it tight and use pace of Gordon and Isak on the break.

Everyone keeps saying the midfield is shite but then raves about how good Bruno and Miley are. So basically Longstaff is shit

May as well not be here. What a waste of a season for him and us.

If we stick him against Saka next week then it’s basically hanging him out to dry.

Out for 3 months

I’d be staggered if a condition of his departure isn’t that they don’t attempt to sign any of our players for the foreseeable future.

If you’re blowing your load on a striker then it needs to be someone younger with sell on value.

Money will talk, eventually. They can slow it but not stop it.

If he goes then he goes. Just a bump in the road on the way to the top.

3-2! What a game

2-2, Asprilla pings one in from 40 yards

Stick him on gardening leave for 12 months unless they pay us £50m.

2-1

My 7 year old daughter has decided she’s a Norwich fan because that’s who her Grandad supports she’s gone to her first game at Carrow Road tonight and they’re 2-0 up after 30 mins so she’ll be buzzing. Will have to temper her expectations mind as this is the best it’ll ever gets.

So glad we didn’t go for Tielemans like. Every time I’ve seen him he’s been shit, and he’d have wanted daft wages and a 5 year deal no doubt.
