    A result that has gone our way.

    Aston Villa 1-2 Liverpool

    It could have been worse for us as Villa took the lead in the first half.

    Stokie,

    More likely the other way round we'll end up with the crap still left, while the players with some skill will be the ones sold on. There are more twists and turns to come this season yet, but we need a results against Villa and some urgency in our play more like the first couple of seasons.

    Top result for us today.
    It makes next weeks game a must win for Stoke. If we do manage that then we will have a 7 point gap between us and even with our poor run of results that will prove too much for Villa to catch us with 6 games remaining, especially with the massive goal difference.
    What I fear however is that TP will try to ensure we don't lose. That would be a bad way to play as Villa look good when they are given a bit of space and time but when teams get at them, they look insecure at the back.

    What is a must however is that we get behind them next week. There has been so much negativity recently that it will start to have an effect on the atmosphere and thus the players. We need to be vocal and show the players we believe they will win.

    I feel that anything other than 100% commitment from the players and the crowd will be baying for blood. A loss against Villa and there will be riots!

    "Look how far we have come" - we are now relying on others losing to not get relegated! What a sorry state of affairs!

    I've not seen the Villa game as yet guys, been out for a meal with the missus and heard the result and Northern.

    We need EVERY single player to be up for that game otherwise we're stuggling IMO. IF we won it that in itself may be enough. Either way and I said this to the wife earlier. What worries me is that Clueliss will set up (not to lose) which at HOME IMO is fooking suicide. Let's hope I'm wrong and we just go for it.

    After seeing the game on MOTD, I think we can take them but as Potts says the team has to be up for it. Liverpool gave them plenty of room yesterday which we won't and they left gaps at the back that even Whelan could pass through so i'm optimistic.

    It is easier for a blind man to pass through the eye of a camel than it is fo Whelan to pass water.

    Are you lot getting nervous? We (Norwich) seem to be playing like you and getting similar results.

    We all saw this coming last season and a little before that! We're CRAP right now no other word for it. I ONLY hope that we've beaten the Villa before we play you guys... Our run in isn't the worst but, it could be a lot better. Home vs Utd and Spurs??? Saint's, QPR and Sunderland away.. yeah Pott's is worried. Let's just say, I hope Norwich are worse than us, we could''nt score in a whore house and Stokie's, Whelan can not play football no mind pass same with Shotton.

    Plan C let's play with nine men, at least we might keep the ball more.
