Norwich travel to Bristol on Saturday after playing against 12 men last time out at Carrow Road.

New rules stipulate that the referee will be AI appointed and offer bland, objective outcomes to happenings on the pitch.

We currently sit above the robins by dint of superior goal difference.
Following their 1-0 victory at Carrow Road in October, Bristol moved up to 6th in the table, and we dropped to 20th after our sixth consecutive home loss.

What a turnaround. PC has been an absolute marvel!

OTBC and here is to a great game at Ashton Gate.

Injury updates from Suffolk I presume? (thanks in advance)

Out:
(CB) Shane Duffy - building fitness

It's worth remembering that Duffy was an everpresent last season. Just because we've moved on shouldn't diminish that. He kept his part of the contract.

I wasn't having a go at Duffy Rick - I was just suggesting that the Club are using his 'recovery period' as an excuse for his non appearance. Apparently he turns up for all training sessions but doesn't get involved with the match day squad. He turns up when required, causes no trouble and gets his money every month. Suits him and the Club - good luck to him!

He looked to be involved with the squad yesterday going by pictures put out by the club.
It is also noticeable that he is more often than not in attendance at home games.

That’s said I think time to move on from him.

He trains with the first team squad but he never travels with the match day squad or attend the pre-match routines on home games.

PC on where we go from here:

“We're on the right path, because we're competing with all of the teams fighting for promotion but it's about small margins with this young team to make them better and we are not there yet. I told you the last couple of weeks also, after good performances, I want more. There's more potential out of this group, but it's a lot of young lads who still need to learn certain things, and they're hungry and they're ambitious, and we will do that the next couple of weeks and months. So that's a working point for us for the next couple of weeks, and also towards next season, to raise the levels with the players available in the building, and also with new players who can add quality there.”

Referee in charge will be Ruebyn Ricardo, who was in charge of our 2-0 win over Sheff Wed, and Bristol City's draw at home (2-2) and loss, away (2-0) to Wrexham
