Match Thread - Norwich City - St Charles Owl - 05-04-2015
THE LAST MATCH
Another boring game by all accounts which we probably deserved to win but hardly showed the quality to do so!!! Having said that we went ahead in the 86th minute and against a poor Huddersfield team that should have seen the three points wrapped up, but we were unable to hold onto the lead for even 3 minutes and ended up with a draw!!!!! Putting teams away when we have the chance is definitely something that needs to be sorted next season!! One positive was Bus getting his first goal for the club, that is good to see!!
No video as its not been posted anywhere so I thought I would simply stick up a video of Charlie Adam scoring for Stoke at Stamford Bridge from about 60 yards out!!!
THE MATCH - MON 6TH APRIL 2015 15.00 GMT
Oh Fluck, now we have to travel to arguably our hardest away game of the season, down to Norwich. I like Norwich, my mum is from Norfolk so have always had a soft spot for them but I also admire them as a club!! They always seem to do things the right way, and seem to have always done so, still I always want to beat them!!
This will be the 51st meeting between the teams and our record is W22 D14 L14, so we do have a decent record against them. They are currently on good form and find themselves in 3rd place just one point off the auto spots and two points off the top place!! For me they have to be favorites to grab one of those two places!! This is a game that should see us get hammered on current form, but we have not lost to them in the last 10 games, winning 8 of them, so history tells us that this is actually the easiest game of the season for us!!!!
Earlier in the season we fought out a dull 0-0 draw in a game I can remember absolutely nothing about!! So I watched this video and it was one of those games where we appeared to do very little aside from Westwood making a number of top draw saves!!
CLASSIC MATCH
Last match of the season, a game we needed to win to stay in the Championship. We went behind early but goals from Deon Burton (2), Ben Sahar and Leon Clarke saw us run away 4-1 winners in front of the highest crowd in the whole championship that season of 36,208!! This match was also memorable for it being Dion Dublins last professional game and when he was subbed just afte the hour he received a rousing ovation from both sets of supporters. Classic stuff!!
POTENTIAL LIVE STREAMING SITES
Each game I will post the links to the websites anyone mentions on the thread. That way its easier to find the potential threads rather than scrolling through all the posts on the thread to find the ones where a link is posted. Lets see how ths works.
Cricfree Football - stole this one from Larry on the Rangers board.

THE TEAM
I am hoping that after Bus scored against the Village he will get a start in this one and for me it would be up front with May, just to see what we have there. Rest of the team is pretty much picking itself at the moment.

Back to score and scorer for this one, defeats are allowed, no copying so please put our score first in your prediction to make it easier to see who you have winning!!! As a bonus please predict the time of the first substitution for either side, usual BBC minute will be the time used, closest to it wins, copying is allowed for this as I will not have the time to add the predictions to the OP.

Cheers SCO, seems as soon as my back is turned you throw a match thread up!
I expect a right pasting from this, Norwich have found their feet, have a hunger to get back in the Prem. Our lot are going through the motions.
