And yet I was gobsmacked at the PNE at the near silence

After we'd gone ahead very early, were playing really well and battering them. The atmosphere was dire.
I'm no fan of Smith and certainly not enjoyed this latest poor run in any way and he's right to be criticised as is Webber for his recent signings, but I also accept the fans vocal support hasn't been good at Carrow Road. It's seemed good on away games.

A few people said a while ago that maybe fans have lost their enthusiasm for *another* crack at the Championship or have become complacent. Maybe there's something in that
