    I am not surprised at all.

    Phillips got himself sent off, missed 3 games and his teammates have filled in for him very well.

    Clarke is still young and developing and has been shown to give us more coming off the bench than he does as a starter.

    Both give the manager options to change the game, if necessary, later.

    as people have stated roberts is no winger.so all he can be playing is second striker.pablo out wide does not give us much pace at all.

    I’ll certainly be happier if we’re scoreless at halftime and spring Clarke from the bench. A real potential game changer

    Roberts is playing the no 10 midfield playmaker role which allows Pablo out wide

    Hate to see that. Often seems to work in reverse

    Gives Sky something so they can make excuses for Norwich, without mentioning our injury woes.

    Will make a change for them to mention us, let alone make excuses for us if we lose.
    Normally the only mention we get is something like........ "Oh yeah. Norwich were the other team on the pitch" <laugh>

    As for the result today, as long as we don't get hammered, I'll be ok.
    A draw would do me. Just can't see us getting more than that somehow.

    Good luck for the rest of the season.
    I'd be more than happy for us to come 2nd to you at the end of the season.

    Stuart Attwell is going to be the Referee, he has officiated at one Championship Game this season, Sheff Weds v Hull a 1-1 draw, 11th August. He is from Nuneaton and generally refs premier league games but has in the past had some issues.

    We have issues with Sky for quite a few reasons and as every game goes by it seems to worsen.
    I'll reciprocate the best wishes, although I think West Brom will get 1 of the top 2 places, tonight's game could go a long way to determine who gets the other.

    I’m personally torn on the sky thing. On one side I’m delighted Norwich game is on tv as I couldn’t organise suitable flights but that’s their fault. On other hand I’ve flights bought fo
    Milwall game hoping sky don’t switch it. If they do, not for the first time, there will be an empty Ryanair seat on the day

    I think the main issue for fans like yourself is the lack of notice. In Holland and Germany games are chosen months ahead,there tv games after Christmas to end of season were scheduled in November, that's why they get so many overseas fans atend, knowing they can make arrangements in confidence.
