Since Manning was sacked the home record is much better. P6 W3 D1 L2.

Some of us could see what lampard was doing. Lot of vitriol on this forum that day I remember. From fans now loving lampard lol
Other results won't affect how we approach this game.
Really need an away win otherwise it can start affecting the players confidence. Win here and I think we win against QPR
Snap your hands off for 4 points from the 2 away games. We'll flatten Oxford at the CBS and would be going into Boro at home in good shape.
Correct but most of the whole season statistics people keep referring to are to do with a different manager.
Lets be objective here, and not try and slap backs, but that result at Norwich and particularly the Portsmouth result was pretty poor.
I miss the games where we’d be a bit nervous beforehand and then at least 3 up before halftime.
I think we should go back to this.

If we don't want the playoff route then this is the type of games you have to win, no excuses. Player for player we are a better team.
I’ve always liked Frank, I’ll be the first to admit though a few of these players were rubbing me up the wrong way and I thought they were a soft touch
Fair play, their turnaround in a year has been remarkable and the Norwich game really seemed to be the sliding doors moment
Norwich home record is poor.
Since 1901, versus teams that start with "C" or have "City" and played on a Monday and on a waxing crescent moon on years that end either "2", "4", or "6" (but not "8"), they've won only 1 game drew 0 and lost 10.
It's happening, boys. Believe again.

Not sure what you have planned, but Monday night I was just going to watch the game sitting on the sofa and not cook anything, so as long as no-one else leaves the grill on in the house, I think I'll be fine.
He'll approach it as he has the last few games. We've got decent attacking options on the bench so he won't be too concerned about that. Just hope they're not as uncomfortable as those games were for long periods.
Results went our way today feel we go for the win like we have in most games all season!

Thomas and Torp will come back in from the off I would’ve thought, aside from that I think Frank will it keep pretty much the same.
If it were me I’d be tempted to see if BTA can start the game as opposed to Rudi, but I don’t think Frank will go that way.

Time to break the Carrow rd Hoodoo and go 11 clear of third
5'11" and he looks about 12 on his Wiki page. Kevin and Perry springs to mind!

Sorry, too obscure... a failed attempt at a double pun on his name: amass. I know Latin puns are not crowd-pleasers but hoped someone would get the "big fella" attempt.
Your way too intelligent for this forum!

I tried so hard, it would have scanned better as "I love him". But then he'd have to be called Ammo.
Thank you.
People arguing about a back five are not seeing what I'm seeing , or maybe I'm wrong.
Despite having two wingers the full backs both push up so are really wing backs. So that the CBs can cover wide, Grimes drops back to cover them.
With Rudoni sometimes drifting out wide we have only Torp (or Eccles) to defend the midfield which the opposition can overrun.
With the formation we play we can't afford both FBs pushing forward at the same time

Dasilva doesn’t out as far forward. We play a 325 in possession with Grimes at the back Dasilva and Torp in the middle and MvE wide right.
What an opportunity to go 11 points clear of 3rd. That would be huge at this stage of the season and what better team talk for FL to have, other than said opportunity and how they can take any pressure off and create some real distance again.
Be okay with a draw, but really think we can win this.
