My second/third goal debate with Slayer was about Bishop being at fault, not Norris.
I stand by my opinion that Norris was at fault for the second goal. A goalkeeper should not just stand on his line and let a cross within 3 yards of him go across the goal, and if he does he certainly should not stand and watch the ball being put in at the far post without making any move towards maybe saving it. I'm talking as an ex-goalkeeper here and I would not be happy if I had done that at Sunday league level. IMO it is his worst bit of goalkeeping all season so far.
You may be willing to let him off but I very much doubt either he himself, or the goalkeeping coaches, will be doing so when they analyse the game.
