    Saturday 3:00pm
    Sold out away end -wow that is impressive 8 hour round trip.
    Gerard Struber v Liam Manning who will come out on top.
    Bristol City are defiantly playing better away from home at present.Can our new gaffer get one over on our old gaffer.
    Norwich fans are wanting Manning gone and if they lose on Saturday I reckon it may we’ll come true.

    I would say under the current circumstances Norwich having not won at home Bristol City have an excellent chance of picking up points.

    We say: Norwich City 2-1 Bristol City
    While Bristol City have shown enough in recent weeks to suggest that they will continue to be difficult to beat, we cannot ignore Norwich's home form. The Canaries may have struggled of late, but they have our backing to edge this contest in the closing stages.


    James Ray
    “There’s no hiding that both sides could do with a win here. Three points against his former side would be a Norwich City fans.

    “The boss hasn’t hesitated to point out how he recovered from a bit of a rocky start at Bristol City, and rightly so in my view. He’s gelling a new group together and that will take time, especially with injuries doing no favours.

    “The Robins have looked more cohesive and dangerous under Struber. They’re unbeaten on the road too, while NCFC have lost all four.

    “As such, I’ll be backing an away win, marking an unhappy reunion for Manning.”

    Prediction: Norwich City 1-2 Bristol City


    Harry Mail
    Norwich City boss Liam Manning is already under pressure. If NCFC lose here, more heat will be turned up on him.

    “It has been a poor start to the new season for the Canaries. They have been too inconsistent and haven’t been able to find any rhythm yet.

    Bristol City started well under Gerhard Struber but have since seen their form slump a bit. They are winless in their last four outings.
    “The international break has given the Robins time to rest and recover. I think this one will end up a draw at Carrow Road though.”

    Prediction: Norwich City 1-1 Bristol City

    Can’t see anything other than a loss I’m afraid. With our present fit squad I think it’ll be a tough afternoon, especially once subs are introduced. We need to have a decent lead before we have to resort to the bench imo

    City have an historical ability to end things be it ..........
    ending a winning streak / losing streak / or a manager's job [ last team they played against before the sack! ] etc /etc ............ a draw or win could for them would be a + however a loss could be!!!!!!!!!!!

    We have been really poor this season, especially at home.
    Welcome to Carrow Rd, a long trip for you.
    Well done to sell out your allocation

    We’re unbeaten away from home this season but I think that’ll come to an end this afternoon and you’ll have your first home win

    I have a feeling we will come to Mannings rescue today…..
    All our midfield is in the sickroom.

    Canada is tuned in now and I think we may have problems here due to lack of good players. Tough day ahead?

    Does Mehmeti understand the offside law?

    A dull first half and we are still in the game but as I see it we aren't asking any questions of Norwich.

    Nothing for me, I’ve been openly critical of him on here, and I have seen nothing again today to change that view.
    The ref has been poor, really inconsistent.

    He is probably our highest paid player he needs to bring far more to the pitch.

    Vitek has done well on a couple of 1 on 1s, something O'leary will never excel at.
    Hats off to Vyner for trying in midfield but he's not up to it. What's worse is it means Struber has to play Tanner in Vyner's position.
    I'll be more than happy to come away with a point but our season isn't going anywhere with Tinnion's useless striking misfits and no midfield till Christmas.
