£3.40 parking at the Q-Park in Norwich City Centre after 3pm, 15/20 min walk from Carrow Rd if anyone is driving and unsure where to park

2-0 Goals from Wright and Torp , fancy us to get a penalty too

Some perspective is needed. In our recent ‘poor’ run we’ve only had 3 results which have dropped us below the points required.

Away draws at Birmingham and Ipswich would have been acceptable and the home defeat to Ipswich was down to tactical naivety and a bit of bad luck.

One away win every 3 games whilst maintaining the home form will see us in the top 2. I’m confident there will be at least 3 away wins with a few draws thrown in.

Didn’t realise Boro play Norwich on Saturday

Big pressure on Wilson tonight.

Big pressure on Wilson tonight.

Yup. Those half-time oranges don't just cut themselves.

I know most club specific forums are generally quite bullish about their own sides chances - But Norwich seem to be confident of a statement win tonight having had a flick through theirs

Think we lose tonight. It’s Norwich. Maybe cos it’s fucking miles away but we never do well there.

We’re not losing to a team in 20th, it’ll be tight but another 3 points,

With Ipswich losing I’m hoping the players will see this as an opportunity rather than a pressure game. I’m feeling a draw is likely.

 

[quinn1971]

Need to be a bit more positive, not 1 of they’re players gets into our team, just match them for effort and we’ll be fine, i did say it’ll be tight but hoping we score a few, 5-3 classic

Big pressure on Wilson tonight.

Nah Wilson is out with a broken toe. Weve just done an emergency recall of Collins

Madness. The last bit that is

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Fuck it, whack Rudi in goal.

That will work well with his poppin shoulder

 

[Tommo1993]

Fuck it, whack Rudi in goal.

Knowing him he’d probably be stood closer to the corner flag

A few people have mentioned they don't really care for this fixture and don't know much about their manager with his time with us. Firstly, I think it must be the age because I have always loved our games against Norwich and used to love the trip out there. We've had some memorable games including the great 5-4, which is still one of my favourites. Growing up in the 60s and 70s Bristol and Norwich were our equals and the games were always enjoyable. If I could choose any away game to go to it would be this one, but I'm working today, so can't go.
As for Clement, met him a few times and I was impressed with his feelings towards the club, not sure but I think he joined the old players club and has attended over the years, I yhink, not 100%, but he always speaks highly about us. He joined when having a foreigner was still seen as being exotic, as we had quite a few scottish lad in the club then. Will we be singing one of our own to him tonight?
Think it will be entertaining but we will be too strong for them - 2-0 to us.
