Norwich were without 11 players for city game yet only 3 that started against us started against city showing how much of a reserve team it was. All this talk of us now being able to beat city is a little bit cringe. Let’s not take anything away from the players, Norwich reserves are still decent Championship side but Tuesday night is far more important. Let’s see how many turn up for that.
Are you seriously suggesting that (for a few days at least) Crawley Town are not better than Man City...? you should have your stripes removed Tiger... shame on you.
I have done a quick assessment (my 1st was based on recall during MoTD) and there was 12 (twelve) Norwich players who were either in the starting XI or on the bench for both matches (Crawley/Man City)... twelve... and that disregards the ineligible Roberts.
You know... the 1st match where we beat Norwich and the other match where they beat the current holders of the Premier League title, FA Cup & League Cup winners... with their reserves.
See off Stoke and we might even get a chance to face the buggers ourselves.
C'mon, lets be 'avin ya...!
Like I said all a bit cringe. Well done for finding the bold button.

Actually... Pure old-skool hypertext Tiger.
You can cringe away in your feline way, but how many times do we get to laud it over those Premier League big boots...? And how long will it last...?
I will make the most of it while it is there and even - dare I say it - actually enjoy a cup run plus a decent attendance or two...!
We are better than Man City (for the next 24 hours at least), hey-ho what is there to moan about...(?).
Pah...Crawley Town are better than Man City, the evidence is undeniable...
...well, six of those "Norwich Reserves" featured in their win over the team that won the three senior domestic trophies last season (another stayed on the bench & Roberts was not permitted to appear)... surely, more than enough to satisfy the most forensic analysis of our claim...?

I spoke with a Norwich supporter after the game and he assured me that most of his Team were regulars that won them promotion last season.

So called Norwich supporter was talking rubbish, only regular was Zimmermann who was using the game for fitness. Sure it was a Norwich fan? I’ve included the lineup and appearances from last season....
Fahrmann (new signing), Byram (new signing), Zimmermann (39 starts first game back from injury), Klose(23 starts),Heise (debut), Amadou (new signing), McLean (15 starts), Roberts (new signing), Srbeny (0 starts), Vrancic (14 starts), Idah (debut).
Still a fantastic result for us but that lineup would get nowhere near promotion from Championship, let’s not kid ourselves.

I'm not really sure what point you're trying to prove here. You clearly can't take a joke (or understand humour at all). And you seem to want to suck all the joy out of us beating a Premier League side (whatever team they put out) and going on a cup run for the first time in what seems like ages. Stop bleating on about Norwich - they're out. We're still in the cup. See if you can crack a smile at least.

The record books for ever more will still show the score as Crawley Town 1 Norwich City 0
I did say it was exciting times ahead so I don’t see that as negative at all. Was just being realistic, but to keep up with forum humour, yes we smashed the all conquering Norwich Championship side (confirmation from bloke down the pub) and we would also smash best team in the world (confirmation from forum fantasist). I feel much better now. <b>note children, excessive internet use can damage your mental health</b>

you can only beat whats put in front of you we did that so be happy for a change
If Norwich didn't field their best 11 that is entirely their own fault
...and we would also smash best team in the world (confirmation from forum fantasist)...
And our own Mr. Missog confirms with absolute authority, that a Norwich match-day squad with 12 players from the match-day squad of their defeat against us, NEVER REALLY beat Man City on Saturday...(?)
Pathetic Tiger, maybe you're the fantasist who has spent too much time curled up licking your HTML tags...!

Lol! How do you do them bolds?
By not desperately employing pathetic distraction techniques... go on, give it a try sometime...!

Distraction techniques! You never answer a question just waffle rubbish because you have nothing better to do. This coming from someone who said myself and cioffi were idiots because only an idiot would suggest a 5ft 10 midget could play centre back! Who’s the idiot here? <i>Do you do italics as well?</>

YES - successfully too and now you are desperately trawling back through history as a distraction...
...hey-ho... I personally believe it is idiocy for a player lacking in physique, to be played at Centre-Back, particularly when they are clearly struggling for fitness & it did not take Cioffi very long to reach the same conclusion...!
Anything else you want to revisit in your desperate attempt to appear credible...?
Back to basics: You appear to think that we should get better attendance for league matches against the likes of Cheltenham & Mansfield, than for a cut-price cup game against Premier League... erm... "stiffs"... is that right...?
