Norwich City fans were left frustrated by their defeat to Wrexham, but it wasn’t Canaries supporters who were flooding the replies on the club’s post-match social media posts.

Liam Manning’s side lost 3-2 to the Championship newbies on Saturday. Jack Stacey put Norwich ahead at Carrow Road, before Wrexham hit back three times with Josh Windass scoring twice and Ryan Longman getting a goal in between the former Sheffield Wednesday ace’s double. Jovon Makama bagged a consolation goal in the second minute of added time.

The Canaries sit 14th in the table as a result having now lost three, won two and drawn one league game. In four home games in all competitions, Manning has overseen four defeats, conceding ten goals.

Manning joined Norwich from Bristol City this summer – and Robins fans certainly aren’t shying away from saying ‘we told you so’.
