The video which has since gone viral is a testament to the dreary brand of football her side have been dishing out after getting promoted from the Championship with the club looking set to be relegated once again.

Norwich City failed to capitalise on the man advantage they had on the day with the visitors going down to 10 men Newcastle United after Callum Wilson converted a penalty.

Ciaran Clark had received a red card just nine minutes into the matchup after his challenge on Pukki. The side found much needed reprieve though after Billy Gilmour’s handball which saw the hosts take a lead on the day.
