I have a feeling it will go all the way.

5 pen takers???

Based entirely on vibes:

Can hit a ball cleanly: Wright, Godden, Simms, Torp,
Should score but might try something stupid: O’Hare, Palmer,
Technically sound: Eccles, Sheaf, Kitching, Kelly, Allen, Binks,
Questionable ball striking: MvE, Thomas, Latibeaudiere, Collins,
Lock up your barn doors: Bidwell, Dasilva, Tavares.

I’m nervous for tonight. We should beat them, especially if they field a weakened team. We will rest a couple which i think is a mistake. It feels like one of those games where there is now plenty at stake and we could bottle it, although last season should reassure me that we are no longer such bottlers.

That’s your perspective and absolutely valid. I heard songs all game and every time Norwich started a song, we countered it. I wouldn’t say we were awesome, but I wouldn’t agree we were quiet either.
We weren’t quiet. It was loud and fairly constant. young lad behind me was starting songs off all game. Bit noisy really ;)

Should be a decent game tonight. I’d imagine both sets of players could be up for it as they know the winners have a great chance to play in the FA Cup quarter-final.

Very funny but MVE should be in first category and probably Eccles too. Would also put Allen in penultimate category.

I wasn’t sure about MvE. His set pieces say yes, but he has a very particular technique and general vibes that say he might Dabo it. Eccles would side foot it bottom corner every time. Proper midfielder well taken pen.

Apparently they have sold 2.5k for this. Assuming the point grabbers turn up, which they usually do.
Decent turn out.

To me he’d go for a panenka, bunny hop or try to absolutely twat it top bins.

Simms is gonna miss a pen isn’t he? And Wilson is gonna get nowhere near any of theirs

I thought we were poor against Norwich and have been for quite a while now - especially away.
Really? In December & Jan, we won away at Sunderland, Sheff Weds, Mboro and got a point at Leeds. We only lost at Ipswich (prior to our run) and Norwich on Sat.
I thought we looked decent going forward against Norwich, but looked wide open at times when they came at us, especially 1st haf. That's a concern for me, seeing as we have Kitching out tonight and on Sunday.

I think point grabbing is a bit of a myth to be honest - everyone said people were just buying for the sake of it for the away game but it was still full

Intrigued to see the away end at Plymouth.
