I read it as Stoke having got an absolute rocket at half time

I bet they came out with ears ringing, and then put a lot more effort into it second half. Combine that with the fact that we do have quite a few injuries (Sarge obvs the biggest miss) and there isn’t much on the bench to come on and really change the game. Not really that surprising we struggled second half, but thought we dug in and held out well. It was all very un-Norwich though to grind out a 1-0 like that. But I liked it.
