Cardiff will beat us, they are playing so much better, we're just scraping by at the moment. I wont be too disappointed, we've made a cracking start to the season.

Probably fair to say you called it right there. Didn't see a 3-1 victory, but a good result none the less. Booking for Bothroyd means he's out of the swansea game next week though, so that's going to make it even more difficult. Still only a draw for QPR so city top of the league! biggrin

Good comeback from the Canaries this week and we didn't play too badly last week against Cardiff. I wish we'd stop giving soft goals away. Our keeper, Ruddy has cost us 4 or 5 at least this season already.

Anyway, Milwall away Tuesday night, we never do well there. Cliff, how are your boys playing? You seem to be struggling after what was a promising start? Is Morrison playing or is he injured at the moment?

I would just like to say.....


....GET IN YOU MIGHTY SWANS!!!!

Surely, now, the footballing world might start taking notice of us given we have not conceded a goal since September 28th, we have kept a clean sheet against QPR (supposedly running away with it) and now have showcased our talents on the BBC by making a team, who have been made a dead cert for promotion to the Premiership, look distinctly average on their home-turf.

Special mention to Alan-Super-Tate - if you cut that guy in half you would read 'Jack-bd' like a stick of rock.

We outplayed our bitter rivals in a game that we were going to get a slapping at (according to the Welsh media at least). Bellamy showed that he is still an irritating, petulant child, Chopra couldn't handle Little Joe and resorted to trying to break his leg instead. Six clean sheets on the trot, four away wins on the trot, included in that is a draw with the top team and win against the second team at their patch.

'We all dream of a team of Alan Tates' bow

Bout time this was bumped.

A couple of big loan signings made yesterday, Ramsay to Forest and Kirkland to Leicesert. Quite please Norwich got Lansbury, but only for 28 days.

Great win by Palace yesterday over Doncaster. Looks like the scoreline could have been higher for them. Anyway, looks like they are settling down with all of the new boys in the team, lots of them teenagers. Great to have Ambrose and Danns back, they make a huge difference from the perspective of experience. As usual, Zaha was sublime and only 19 years old. They've played very well against the better clubs of the division, so let's see what happens next Saturday at Leeds - that will be a tough one.

Quick bump for this thread

QPR are running away with the league and i can't see anyone catching them.

Cardiff have been on a very bad run, but Bothroyd should be back this weekend and hopefully Jones can strengthen in January.

Leeds have been on a great run since Cardiff tonked them at Elland road, but will get the chance of revenge next week.

Forest, getting better and better

Swansea, Meh!

Leicester, can see them making a charge under Sven. Plus will probably spend in January.

Preston have sacked Ferguson and apparently Sir Alex has recalled 2 of his players in protest.

Burnley have sacked laws....

Sheffield utd have appointed Mickey Adams. Good luck to him.

Not a bad side, who can pass it around. However they have no one who can score, they could have played all week and not scored. Truelly the worst team in front of goal I've seen at The Den in a long while.

He is also trying to cancel the season long loan of a third player, and now Stoke have also recalled the 2 loan players that they have at Preston.

Probably not a good time to be a Preston fan, but it is funny looking in from the other end of the M55 when your a Blackpool fan.

Speedy recovery to Greg Cunningham, 4 months out with a broken leg after a horror tackle from a Hull player.

Sounds nasty, hope he makes a speedy recovery , thats from a Norwich fan.

A very happy Norwich fan as well, what a win and what a run we are on. Those boys are running through walls for their manager, they never know when they are beaten. We have assembled a decent squad for this level and have proven we can beat anyone on this league. With 22 games to go, if we could get around 38-40 points, i think that may be enough for automatic promotion.

Boro away on Monday, and every chance of a win there.

On the ball city...
