It would be great to have top 6 secured before the last game on the 3rd May

sell out, party time in the sun.

I think 11 more points and it’s ours.

I think the best result of the day (apart from ours) is Middlesboro losing. They are the team I was fearing, but now 6 points behind us

First time they've won three on the bounce at home for quite a while I think.

Some great results today for us leave us in 5th despite the loss last night.

Norwich head coach Johannes Hoff Thorup told BBC Radio Norfolk:
"The players definitely think we can give it a late push and based on that, we needed a win.
"Knowing that we will be without a left-back for probably the rest of the season was one of the reasons behind the different approach because last time we played against West Brom, (Tom) Fellows on the right side created problems for us.
"When you decide to have a five in the backline instead of four, you probably lose a bit of intensity in the first line of your pressing game and that's what we had to accept and do what it takes to be compact as a team.
"At the end of the day, everyone just wants to see us win so we do what is necessary - it's not my favourite kind of football, but I'm not that stubborn, not to do what it takes once in a while to get a result."
West Brom boss Tony Mowbray told BBC WM:
"I thought the team played extremely well, as good as in my time here, with the control that we had.
"Norwich are a good team with some special individuals but we generally kept them pretty quiet, their keeper was forced to make more saves than ours.
"There's lot to be pleased with but what matters in football is the result at the end of the day and we're all left frustrated and disappointed.
"Sometimes you don't get what you deserve in football and we definitely didn't, it was a cruel day for us."

Aside from Sheffield United, Burnley and Sunderland, pretty much every forum is in meltdown.

There are four or five teams now vying for those two last PO places
