    Let's be brutally honest here.

    Things are not so good at the moment, in fact we are staring relegation right in the face.

    This board is divided because of the managerial issues, players and board. I am from Essex originally but have lived in Norfolk for many years now and one thing I have noticed about the people who support Norwich and actually people from Norfolk in general is that when the chips are down they stick together and get through it.

    Now Hughton is gone it is the time to stick together and get behind the club, players and manager and if the worst happens hopefully together we fall.

    Don't forget that norwich has come a long way in the last 4 years and this should not be forgotten and going forward we are in a good place.

    Were better together and let's not forget what a great city Norwich is, not just the football club.

    I can't talk for the home crowd kemp, but all of the away fans today were great and got behind the boys
    Totally agree with what you are saying about the board too
    We're not down yet, it's looking grim yes, but there's twists still to come in the final few games

    Fulham have to play Spurs, Hull, Stoke and Crystal Palace. I pencil it down as L, D, L, D
    Norwich have to play Liverpool, Man Utd, Chelsea and Arsenal

    Don't think anyone would suggest we will pick up a point let alone keep it to 0-2 vs. Liverpool
    Man Utd are a mixed bag, maybe hoping to avoid Europa League, always a chance especially now that Rooney is out. Reasonable chance for a upset?
    Chelsea, could be an Aston Villa/Crystal Palace result. Perhaps the Title will be wrapped up? They will play us after a bruising week and a half (Champions League Semi, Liverpool, Champions League Semi). Slim chance of a draw?
    Arsenal...4th CL spot could be sorted and gone by then. FA Cup next week, so they will play it safe, especially given the overwhelming desire for a 1st trophy in 9 years. Reasonable chance for an upset?

    Chins up lads, proof today that we were playing better!

    we can do it, we really can, i believe that... if we could all predict the obvious results the gamblers amongst us would all be millionaires... there are many twists and turns left yet and we may even see one of the teams above us drawn into this yet, my gut feeling tells me an upset is coming..

    To put it simply, if you couldn't get a point against Fulham, why would you get anything from Liverpool, United, City, or Arsenal? There's a difference between blind faith and delusion.

    My only concern is that the players looked devastated. Snodders in tears, worked their arses off most of them. I wonder whther they can pick themselves up again

    Cheers guys, you're still giving me some hope!

    Whatever happens in the next few weeks, we'll be fine. We're a well run club with, contrary to media belief, one of the best CEO's in the business, a debt free balance sheet and a loyal and sizeable fan base. Here's hoping for some exciting results to cheer us up over the coming weeks.

    Well, Arsenal were rubbish today. Fancy that one for starters. It's definitely not over yet, despite the negativity on here.

    I'm a little down, but not broken. I've seen it all before.

    Plus, I'm well into a second bottle of a rather fine Burgundy, so feck off! <laugh><ok>

    I'll give you a point against Arsenal, maybe...possibly a point against Moyses Man U (but I seriously doubt it), you'll get nothing from Liverpool or City, they've both got too much to play for...


    Enjoy your Bergundy, my friend!<cheers>

    I still think we have a chance with Man who.

    Because they are trying to avoid a Europa spot, Rooney has got turf toe and they have nothing to play for. Oh and Moyes is crap.

    That's just a small part of his problems <laugh>

    They're really not the team of old though, it's doable.

    Good job we're not playing City then really!

    But, if we were to take 2 points, that puts us four ahead of Fulham, with (until Suarez says otherwise) a superior goal difference. Fulham would therefore have to win both their home games (I can't see them getting anything away at Spurs or Stoke).

    Just need 4th place sorted ASAP, so Arsenal play the youth team against us to rest players for the FA cup final, and I guess a Man City win at Liverpool to try and kill off the title race a little.

    Palace are looking a tough nut to crack right now as well? And it's a London derby?
    Watching that game yesterday Fulham looked poor, yes I know we lost to them, but let's face it Lady Luck got injured & didn't return ! Even there manager has come out and said they were lucky!
    I agree totally that we've got two posibly four points left in us.
    I can't see Fulham beating Spuds or Stoke away, Hull will have players playing for a cup final place so shouldn't be no mugs either, then Palace. Will they be safe all ready and don't turn up? Or will they continue playing as they are right now?
    Lots to play for yet lads, don't give up till the big lass is handed the mike!

    This speculation is nothing more than that until any of us feel confident that someone (anyone) is going to actually put the ball in the opposition net! Right now I have difficulty believing that is going to happen again - ever!

    I'd rather be a Norwich fan than Sunderland or Cardiff!
    Fulham fans? I guess they are absolutely convinced that they're staying up now - could a bit of over confidence slip into the minds of the players? Maybe.
    I think this is far from over, I think 2 points will be enough for us and although you wouldn't predict a win for us in any of those four games on an individual basis, we do still have 4 opportunities to get that unexpected win.
