    Norwich City v Leeds Utd
    Saturday 28th April 2018@3pm

    PLEASE KEEP MATCH DAY THREADS ON TOPIC
    Good Morning / Evening

    We are nearly there!!!

    It's the penultimate game of the season, and we're away at Carrow Road on Saturday!

    After 44 games, only a +2 goal difference keeps Leeds on a higher pirch <doh>

    Surely Heckingbottom will stick to the same XI that coughed and spluttered their way past clueless Barnsley last week.

    According to Jamie Clapham, Pennington had a good game at right back.

    O'Connor and Jansson looked comfortable at centre back (apart from Paudie's OG).

    Pearce has a good chance of making the left back slot his own if he can continue his good form.

    Have we seen enough of De Bock to make a judgement call on the Dutchman?

    Pearce or De Bock?

    Phillips and Viera will be under pressure from a fit again Forshaw. How if either should give way?

    Have we seen the last of Anita, Lonergan, Lasogga, Sacko, O'Kane, Ekuban, Weidweld, Berardi, Dallas or Cibicki?

    Which of the above should get a reprieve?

    It would be interesting to compare the players that started on the opening game of the season, and compare!

    I think we’ll fluke a win

    I’ll justify that prediction in due course <yikes>

    I think we'll struggle with 2 right backs and no left back, a bit unbalanced that.

    I always want a Leeds win but once again, the end of the season can’t come soon enough. I started the season with so much enthusiasm and high hopes, now I have the same despondent feeling I had when we were relegated. It kind of feels like a relegation season.

    I’m hoping some of the U23s get a game, allow Lasogga an early return to Germany, he isn’t good enough and the agents of O’Kane, Anita, Sacko, Felix and Lonergan should all be called in and told find your player a new club, they have no future at Elland Road

    Ell said Pearce has good chance of making RB slot his own, I assume that’s the point

    <ok> got you now,was thinking we don't have a right back,never mind 2,will be a good test for both fullbacks,as Norwich like to run at defenders.

    All I can say is Pearce must be a bloody good left back to make the right back spot his own as well <ok>

    I gave an opinion relating to the match so how was I off topic in any sense of the meaning.
    You on the other hand have made 2 posts 100% off topic and bucks should make an example of you.
    Coming back to the match at least we don’t have to watch them beat us with our own players any more.

    Spot on as usual top man, some people don’t know their left from their right!

    Off topic but where are our knowledgeable posters, WJ, Forza and even OLOF?

    Norwich brings back memories of last season when Jansson scored a thumping header & jumped into the away end, he was within touching distance as our fans went barmy <party>

    Well you choked early so it's a pointless match.

    If there are any Irish people travelling Republic of Ireland Superstar Wesley Aka Wessi Hoolahoops Hot lips Will be playing his last Norwich home game.

    You would think a testimonial would be more suited after a decade of service between L1 & the Premier league plus Euro heroics ...
