In his interview after Charlton away, Darnell was asked about the pen and he said "I felt a touch" and he went down. Other Championship fans are berating us as cheats.
Well, when we were in the Prem, that's exactly what the established Prem teams do. They feel a touch, they go down, they get a pen. We were naive. We didn't do it.
It's something, one the details, we have learned form our season in the Prem. It's not nice, but it is part of the modern game at Prem level. You feel a touch, you go down, you get a pen. Just another reason we are better prepared this time. |  |

the fact Town have had the 4th highest number of yellow cards in the Championship this season indicates that we are not "too nice". Distasteful as it seems, we are probably adept at the "tactical foul" & while the laws of the game encourage it, teams will continue to do it.
Our players have also been cute enough to avoid collecting a second yellow. |  |

The way Norwich players were throwing themselves to the ground early in the derby at carrot road this season was just embarrassing for them, but ref fell for it and they "won" a large number of very cheap freekicks, but didn't like it when the ref started giving then to us. Which I think helped us get the penalty, as in the contexed of freekicks given in the game, the penalty was not that soft.
It is just an every day part of modern football, feel a touch and go to ground, in or out of the penalty box. |  | | |

I am so looking forward to VAR - not.
Gone will be the spontaneous joy of celebrating a goal the instant the ball goes in. One reason I’d have been slightly less upset if we hadn’t gone straight back up. |  |

As a side note, I'd love a rule change such that when a penalty is awarded for a foul on a player, the penalty must be taken by the player fouled. |  |

Would be interesting watch if that player unfortunately broke a leg in that moment.

While that is the reality, it's not a great way of looking at things, if we're all honest. |  |

Norwich fans have a short memory.
They didn't mind Grant Holt rolling about cheating for pens. |  | | |

Do you reckon our 3rd goal would have got passed VAR? | |
