Half-time: Norwich 0-0 Owls

Paul Sturrock's post match comments:
"It's swings and roundabouts. I've been to games where we've walked away with less than we should have got but for a change my team listened to me."

"We were disappointed with the start. Some of the chances Norwich had in the first half were Sheffield-made. Our defence was like 'pigs in space. He (Agbonlayor) gave us a different option. When you're under the cosh, to have him around to slide in down the channels is a great benefit. He's a young laddie but he showed some guts and did all the right things."

Nigel Worthington's post match comments:
"We have just got to roll our sleeves up, dig in like we have in recent years and come through it. I've got good players here and it's just not rolling for us at the moment and we have got to make it roll. I'll be strong. The important thing from my point of view is that my job is on the line here and I will be working damn hard to make sure I retain my position."

"The pressure will be no problem. I've been in football a long time now and I can deal with that."
