    So tomorrow afternoon sees us take on 3rd place Cottagers and DF confirms that Hanley and Tettey are both fit, but Hernandez has a hamstring problem and Leitner could return for Villa.

    Sky Preview -
    Norwich winger Onel Hernandez has a hamstring problem and will not feature in the Easter schedule, which starts with the Sky Bet Championship visit of Fulham.
    Defender Grant Hanley will be available despite returning early from Scotland duty because of shin splints, but Wales forward Marley Watkins will be assessed after travelling back from China. Midfielder Alex Tettey, though, is back in contention following a foot injury, while forward Nelson Oliveira is fit from his calf problem.
    Fulham will continue to monitor defender Tomas Kalas. Kalas, who had been out with a hip problem, travelled with the Czech Republic for the China Cup, so will be assessed.

    Manager Slavisa Jokanovic reported has no other fresh injury concerns ahead of the trip to Carrow Road. The Cottagers will be out to extend an unbeaten run which stretches to 16 matches which has seen them climb to third in the table.

    Pretty good starting 11 - let's hope we don't concede in the first 10 minutes!!

    Match stats: NCFC 39% procession 4 shots on goal 0 on target. Pity the season doesn’t end today.

    Looks like a bad first half. Fulham are arguably one of the best sides in this league at the moment. Will be hard to get anything from this game.

    2 shots on target all game. At home. Jesus.

    We need so many attacking players in the summer. With no money, that's going to be interesting/not happening.

    Happy Easter Norwich fans!

    Failed to take the chances (mostly half chances) we had. Got punished by a very good Fulham performance.

    Fulham are a great side, and will do that. Us failing to take chances is the standard. Was always going to be an easy Fulham win.

    I actually thought we played quite well and Tettey had one of his best games.
    I'd love to see Murphy be on the bench for a couple of games.

    I thought we looked good for the first 20 min of the second half. Then they scored <doh>. Klose misjudges those high crosses just over his head. I've seen him do it many times, and it's hard to jump when when your leaning back or back peddling.

    I think you're being a little hard on Josh. But I would agree his decisions weren't very good again today.

    Josh was my biggest disappointment today Srbeny worked hard and so did Nelson when he came on

    I enjoyed being there and watching the lads <cheers>

    Sadly, a very easily predicted result. If there is progress it's hard to see, Fulham are good but to fall a long way short against them at home shows that we are a mile away from becoming a top team in this division. We can only hope that: a transfer window, a fit squad (If we can ever have one!), something to play for and more summer training time has us bridging the gulf between us and Fulham. 1 win in 9 doesn' feel like progress.

    Bah!
