Cool

I have finally surfaced from the pit.

We have a overcast sky but rain is on the horizon, apparently

A cool, wet day up here this morning. I heard a few cars sloshing through the puddles early doors, so didn't rush to get out of my pit

You can’t beat a good view with a nice bag of fish and chips, making me feel hungry now...

To be fair, with a recent promotion and limited resources, it was always going to be a struggle for Norwich, but when relegated they may just bounce back. The Championship is a difficult league to escape from, apart from downwards, but some teams do manage it. My own Club, Burnley, did it 4 years ago, and look where they are now, with even less resources than Norwich. Anyway, once a afn always a fan - I have been supporting Burnley for over 60 years, and remember them being one match away from dropping out of the league at one stage!

Courage, mon brave!

I think if you don't get back up from the Championship in the first two years after relegation - it gets much harder, with a strong chance of going in totally the wrong direction. Middlesbrough are a prime example - a couple of near (ish) promotions (one denied by Norwich!) and now they're in a dogfight to stave off the drop to League One

I used to prefer Football to Rugby Union, but then it changed from a goal scoring game to a goal preventing game, and became somewhat boring, just like F1, but I still watch all three.
