It's all to do with expectation

I live in a strange world I think that as the best players in the country play for England, they should, at least once in a while, play some decent football.

This is clearly an opinion which is rubbish, but where watching England is concerned I am an eternal optimist,

With Norwich my expectations are set considerbaly lower. A win and a decent game is a bonus. Plus I have the consolation of they enjoyment of a few beers on the train to Norwich from London and back again to keep my spirits up.
