Cheers, but don't rest your hopes on us too much!

Don't rule out a surprising result in this game. Norwich can be exceptional on their day, but there is also a weak vulnerability about them at times. They will be expecting an easy three points and a few goals, but if you keep it tight early on in the game and don't let them create too many inroads, their fans will quickly get frustrated.

I'm going for a 1-1 draw.

With no recognised right back unless Chambers is fit we need to loan another one,Jimmy and Muzzy out for along time. Lets hope Brian Stock, Copps, Billy maybe and Brooker are fit to at least have a bench.
So I cannot, but hope, see anything but another loss, Norwich score more goals than Swansea. By the way our Fans are more frustrated at this time with 13/14 injured professional players. It is ridiculous!!!

I can't see how we can have any chance of any positive result at Norwich, we are struggling to even put out a team. Unless we get 5 or 6 players back we will see another hammering.
This injury problem is unreal, something is drastically wrong with our fitness/training methods.
The most worrying thing were SODs comments that he could see we were in a false position even when we were winning games.

i think that's more refreshing than worrying, just one more bit of proof (as if we needed any) that he's an extremely intelligent manager and sees further than results and is totally realistic about everything.

I would go with that, if Sean had said we are in a false position & should be further up the league, then I would be worried. One thing we should take comfort from is he knows exactly what he is doing, & if he can get us out of this slump, with a little bit of luck with personnel, he will.

Agreed 100%. I was carried away back around Xmas, thinking we were on the verge of a play-off run. O'Driscoll (assuming he's not just putting on a Wise Old Man With Hindsight act) knew then that something wasn't right.

He's had a brilliant record of getting half way through the season and calling the right calls to sort our season out. He clearly has an ability to remain dispassionate about our form (either way) and see the calls that need to be made.

I do worry now though that the momentum is too much in the wrong direction. Even if we had a fully fit squad tomorrow, it'd be a hell of a job to get us firing again immediately. Personally, I'd snap someone's hand off if they offered us three poxy wins between now and May. That will probably be enough to keep us up, but at the moment, I don;t see where they are coming from.

Think we will lose this battle ..............but not the war. In SO'D , JR and the team I trust.

[Rios]

As this is one of the last grounds in the division I've yet to tick off I booked train and hotel months ago thinking it'd be a tough ask but we were capable of getting a result...

....never mind it'll be just like old times!  Small away support, pretty much certain to get beat and a long way from home... can't wait!

Willing to try anything at the moment even down to lifting the barricades and allowing Philsky out of London
