    Back to it after the international break. Liam Manning has had plenty of time to stew over Norwich’s current performance issues as well as form a plan to defeat his old team Bristol City.

    Bristol got off to an impressive start in the Championship this season and remain unbeaten away, however they too are on a winless streak (4). Norwich’s issues are well known but a home victory would go a long way towards settling an increasingly hostile fanbase.

    Cordoba’s injury means a shake-up at the back with Medic likely to return. Kenny and Mattsson are looking more settled together but there’s still an argument to see more of Jacob Wright. Main question mark with fans appears to be how Manning gets the best out of his attacking mids, in particular with Jurasek and Crnac. Only Vlad, Darling and Sargent have played more minutes than Crnac this season without a great deal to show for it.

    Anyway, keep your fingers crossed for a first home win of the season. I think we’ll need more than Suffolk’s positive vibes for this one!

    Last season we were on a long undefeated home run and they beat us. This season we have not won, or even drawn, at home and they........?I

    Table turning time.

    I have a feeling things will get worse before they get better.

    Bah!

    Hopefully someone is relieved of his duties. Probably the kit man though.

    He won’t be, what sense would there be to remove him immediately after an international break when a new coach could have come in and had a couple of weeks with the players. I think he will have until the next break which is end of November to ge the team going

    Looks as though Mahovo has picked up an injury over the international break as he drops out of the squad for Springett

    No sign of Fawa. Does anyone know of any other possible links? I know it's masochistic but I want to watch us play.

    EDIT: It just appeared. Not available yet, but it's on the list at least.
