“Very poor” – These Norwich fans react to MOTD coverage
Norwich swept Newcastle aside on Saturday to pick up their first win of the Premier League season.
The Canaries were dominant throughout the match and were well worth the three points, with Teemu Pukki scoring a hat-trick.
This led to a number of fans tuning in to BBC programme Match of the Day to watch the highlights on Saturday night.
Some fans took to Twitter to comment on the coverage…

Nigel isn’t surprised!
Twitter: No sign of the intricate passing and movement by #ncfc on #motd just how Newcastle messed it up, what a surprise (@NJTjust)
READ NORWICH VERDICT
Considering they have to go through seven games in their busy schedule and had a Newcastle legend as one of the pundits, it is no surprise to see them focus more on Steve Bruce’s side than Norwich.
Sometimes there just is not enough air time for them to say everything that needs to be said, which clearly frustrates some viewers, but there is little they can do due to the time constraints in play.
