The Norwich City owner takes questions and comments from supporters.
Another week, another week of much hand-wringing at Carrow Road.
Five defeats on the bounce have left Norwich well, less than bouncy, and head coach Liam Manning with surely very little wriggle room.
Not the case if you listen to owner Mark Attanasio, who this week gave his full backing to the embattled boss.
“There’s no plan to sack Liam. We hired Liam because of his record as an English football coach,” the American told BBC Radio Norfolk this week.
Manning admitted he had had a “good honest chat” with Attanasio but the time for talk is surely over, after all, defeat today would be an unthinkable sixth in a row at home.
Hull City fans must be watching the goings-on in Norfolk relieved that for once the domain of managerial chaos is somewhere else.
Sergej Jakirovic, appointed in June, is their third manager since the somewhat puzzling dismissal of Liam Rosenior in May 2024 but this might be third time lucky for the Tigers.
The Bosnian has led Hull on a five-game unbeaten run which has pushed them to within goal difference of the top six.
So, can the Canaries start to fly or will they feel the Tigers’ bite?
