So tomorrow evening sees us try to get back to winning ways, after 4 consecutive draws when the Florists visit CR.
DF in his presser says that Edwards is closer to recovery and Jarvis could feature for the Under 23s against Fulham on Wednesday.
Could be a good game, as Florists are on a decent run.

I don't really know what our team is or how we play. So it's so hard to predict, like every game. I'm guessing we will score between 1 and 0 goals. If we score 2, we will probably get a rare win. Every single game, when I am asked what do you recon we will do today. I just say "could be anything, as long as it's low scoring". I always got a feeling about a result, but now, I don't feel positive or negative about anything. I know we will fanny around and not have enough shots, and not score many goals. We will probably sometimes keep their goals down to 1 or 2. Leaves very little margin for error when predicting a result.

Here we go. The ripper of own goals from Polston and a flap by Gunny Snr.
This was in 1991, Florist also beat us 1 - 0 in the FA Cup and 5 - 1 in the reverse league fixture that year <yikes>
(Intro is a bit long and tedious but it gets going)

Zimmermann is a doubt for tomorrow.

Who is our back 3 then? Hanley, Klose and.....Franke? No, Martin? No, Godfrey? No.

Maybe Raggett might get a chance! Unless there is a former German 5th Division player who doesn't have a club at the moment. Then it will be him.

Edit: Jesus, had to look at our site to see who we have left at CB to pick, and for a laugh, looked at the strikers. They are calling Watkins a Striker. So we have "3 strikers in our squad" instead of the 1 actual first team striker we actually have.

Maybe we'll go with Pinto, Hanley, Klose, Lewis? But Reed has been playing as a RB so maybe he can play at the back too? but I'd like to see Raggett have a chance.

I would like to see Raggett, too. Another goal-scoring centre-back :emoticon-0100-smile. Seriously, he needs some playing. Otherwise DF should have left him at Lincoln City.

Raggett in back 3 ,with Pinto and Lewis as wing backs.
Tettey and an other in middle,Nelson,Madders and Murphy for me
 
With our chances of reaching the playoffs so small, if Farke sees 3 at the back at home as the way forward then, he should definitely give Raggett a run out (He's not suspended after his red card is he?). I personnally think against anyone but Wolves 3 at the back at home is excessive and plays a large part in our low goals tally.
I'd drop Murphy too, make it clear his current form is unacceptable, if his attitudes right, bring him on from the bench for the last 34 seconds (Any earlier would be ridiculous!) Hanandez needs more game time to get up to speed but looks promising anyway.

Bah!

4-2-3-1/4-1-4-1, with Leitner the bridge?

Bench: McGovern (GK), Pinto, Husband, Zimmermann, Vrancic, Watkins, Hoolahan.

WOW, Sir Benny starts and Basil not even on the bench!!
Still not risking Pinto to start.
Let's hope for some early subs if needed!!!
 
Hmm......Dunno about that line up. Has Srbeny done anything in his minutes? Really hope he scores tonight. He needs to. Pinto is a strange one, and no Nelson, even though he's our only real striker. Murphy's form has been really poor. He needs a good game tonight too.

Fingers crossed, but god know which "Norwich" will show up

COME ON YOU YELLOWS!!
 
Got to be either a late injury or a tantrum from Nelson, if it were tactical he'd at least make the bench.

I'm really hoping it's a late Injury.
Agreed FML re Murphy and he needs to put on a really good show, as several others have said. I'm quietly confident that we'll put on a decent performance, but Florists have been on a good run of late.

Well by all accounts, he is not involved through disciplinary issues. He's not injured. We'll hear more from Daniel Farke after the game. [HASHTAG]#NOliveira[/HASHTAG]
