I´m not sure this will be a cruise
Even if they´re still feeling the blues,
From that 0-6 game
They were tough to tame
First time round, to give them their dues

I remember they made us look poor
That night and that the 3-1 score,
Did not really tell
Just how very well
They played, which we shouldn´t ignore

But since then we´ve gone different ways
So it should be one of those days,
For three points at home
In the Delia Dome
But this game can still always amaze

Especially this league above all
Where no game is easy to call,
So hope for the best
But be prepared, lest
They don´t just obligingly fall

Watch out for some after-effect
From a side just recently wrecked,
Two games on the spin
9 goals have gone in
And none in return, so expect...

...them to fight and scrap constantly
And not give us anything for free,
But here in our joint
It would disappoint
If last week´s point, this time wasn´t three. OTBC

Hi RBF - these are the very games to worry about! When you're expecting a nice easy game, it can turn round and bite you know where

 

[royalbarclayfan]

Yep, these next two are definite potential banana skins.

Doncaster are without their 3 best and only goal threats. I honestly can't see us doing anything other then winning this game - it would be like us playing without Holt/Hoolahan/Lansbury!

 

[royalbarclayfan]

You´re right Marsupial they have been hit badly by injuries, but I´ll still be happier once it´s over and the three points are ours.

There's a thread on 606 with a link to a Donny's site, saying they want the game called off because they've only got 13 fit players (http://www.drfc-vsc.co.uk/index.php?option=com_kunena&func=view&catid=999999&id=142746&Itemid=97)

Just imagine, if you could get a game called off because you couldn't field your strongest team, the season would last forever!!!

Heard this morning on Radio Norfolk Doncaster tried to postpone the game but Norwich have confirmed the game WILL GO AHEAD!! OTBC!!

Hope Holty, Hoolahan, Lansbury, etc bag a few goals each in a convincing win tonight

 

[Dangerous Marsupial]

I'm not expecting a big win, maybe 2 - 0. Though, maybe Wilbs can get off the mark.

Well, you guys where right to be so nervous... massively disappointing result today, but we are only 3 points from second still. Not sure how to fell about it to be honest; it undoes our hard work vs Leeds - we'd of been better losing there and winning here! Our playoff place isn't looking very safe anymore, it's that tight. No more slips like this though, and I still believe we can finish top 2! Barsnley have just sent out a warning in their match vs Leeds if you ask me.

Marsupial, I think the result last night was a lot down to the Leeds game on Saturday. They certainly sounded tired and uninspired from the start, and there´s no doubt that Saturday´s game took it out of them physically and mentally. I don´t think it´s any coincidence that Leeds also dropped two home points yesterday, in a game they would be expected to win. I fancy we should see a rejuvenated City this Saturday, whether that´s enough to win, I don´t know, but I reckon we may see a couple of new faces from the start (Surman and Jackson?)
