The Whites were due to fly to Norfolk from Leeds Bradford Airport but a plane skidded off the runway while landing in heavy rain and the airport was closed, forcing the cancellation of the squad's flight. Farke and his men then boarded a coach and were delayed in arriving in Norwich on Friday night, but he was determined not to let it become an excuse. 'It was tricky yesterday after a stormy night,' he told LUTV after the game.
I wanted them to be on it and told them nothing takes away, I want to win these three points, it doesn't matter what the circumstances are, we don't need any luxury. In terms of preparation it was not perfect but maybe we want to go a bit old school and to win three points is a good feeling.' Farke's main concern was that no one at Leeds Bradford was injured, insisting the inconvenience was very much a secondary concern.
