    On a happier note, both Feed2all and Cricfree are showing possible streams for today's match. Only one link showing so far, so it may end up a false promise, but should be worth a try at least.

    Feisty old game at the Etihad. Who knows which way this is going to go! Entertaining watch thus far!

    <doh> Yes, you're right Dave - it's 'Checkatrade' which is under 21s, but we're allowed a few of over-age players.

    Well, I expect we'll see Hoolahan and Jerome back in the starting 11 next Saturday!!!! <doh>
    Edit - Who needs Gayle - we had 5 different players on the scores very today and that was what we had 2 seasons ago and what we'll need to keep us in the playoffs!!!

    I've seen a couple of tweets about a tragic event at Gorleston FC today but all I can find is that the match was abandoned with 4 minutes to go!

    Anyone know what happened?

    But why abandon the match? Sad though that is, the game could have continued!

    Any particular reason why?
    Can't think of anything they may have done to Norwich in the past.

    The year we both went up they had twice as many penalties as any other team and they had more opposition players sent off, the vast majority of which were rescinded.

    Callum Wilson,s deception of referees makes Hoolahan look like a saint!

    Perhaps they got the ball and men in their opponent's box more often <whistle>
