It's an early Kick off for 10th placed Norwich (47pts) as we visit Rovers who currently occupy 6th (51pts)

City's recent form (W D L D W) - 8 points from 15 vs Blackburn's (W L W W L) 9 points from 15 looks like two teams coming together for what most of the bookies are calling as a draw.

However, Ewood Park has been a happy hunting ground for the Canaries and we haven't lost there in seven outings (6W 1 D).

Cantwell may well be injured for this one, so our once feted midfielder may once again look on and wonder what might have been...

Last week's poll on whether we would reach the Play offs was 66% in the nays - will the outcome of our last result and Sargent's rallying call change any 606er's hearts/minds?

Knapper reckons we are about where we should be, given all the changes that have occured in the last 12 months - good read on the BBC about his current feelings

OTBC and cheers to all.

Our early kick off results make a good read so fingers and toes crossed-all 24 of them (according to people outside Norfolk)
 
Press conference today very early in the week!
  • Last weekend was our 18th midfield combination
  • Mclean, Nunez, Sainz and Sargent haven't featured in the same team since October! <yikes>

Like the bookies I can't see past a drawer myself, they've let in an average of 1 per game.
Now I've said that we'll probably stuff 5 past them to make me look like a plonker!

Just saw this on the head to head bit of the BBC’s preview and it is really telling about our season…
