What, The Metamorphosis?

Well then you'll be discussing the major issues at Carrow Road in no time:

On Gary Doherty: "His... legs, pitifully thin in comparison to the rest of his circumference, flickered helplessly before his eyes."

On Chadwick's injury: "No matter how hard he threw himself onto his right side, he always rolled onto his back again"

On a conversation had with Neil Doncaster: "The stresses of selling are much greater than the work going on at head office, and, in addition to that, I have to cope with the problems of travelling, the worries about train connections, irregular bad food, temporary and constantly changing human relationships, which never come from the heart. To hell with it all!”

On Peter Thorne, before his departure: “He is not well,” said his mother to the manager, while his father was still talking at the door, “He is not well, believe me, Mr. Manager."

On Doherty again: "However, after a similar effort, while he lay there again, sighing as before, and once again saw his small limbs fighting one another, if anything worse than earlier, and did not see any chance of imposing quiet and order on this arbitrary movement, he told himself again that he could not possibly remain in bed and that it might be the most reasonable thing to sacrifice everything if there was even the slightest hope of getting himself out of bed in the process... He preferred to remain in bed"
