Iâve been watching the Canaries for some 10 years now (yes, I know a mere âwhippersnapperâ!!) and would just like to say how impressed I am with some of our performances this season and if any indication were needed of how weâve progressed, then I think we need look no further than the game against Chelsea. Not only did we prevent them from scoring â thanks to a mixture of brilliant defending, excel lent goalkeeping (Iâve always been a fan of JR) and the £50M man being on a woeful run of form; but we also created chances of our own (though not according to MOTD with their âunbiasedâ pundits) and should definitely have had a penalty.
I accept that there is still a LONG way to go, but Iâm becoming more and more confident that weâll still be playing in the PL next year. Why â because of our manager and his willingness to change the team and formation each week and having players of sufficient quality and skill to be able to carry out the changes. The â12th manâ in the shape of the massive support from the crowd both home and away has an important role to play in cheering our team on to achieve what only a few years ago was beyond our WILDEST dreams.
There are no âeasyâ or âmust winâ games, but if we can at least avoid defeat to the teams below us, then weâll be OK.
Will 40 points be enough to stay up â who knows?? As can be seen from yesterdayâs results, anything is possible, though the gap between us and 18th is increasing, so letâs hope it stays that way or at least doesnât diminish rapidly.
Whilst Iâd like us to finish in the top 10, Iâm also a realist and as PL often says, â17th will do very nicely!!!â

A pace or two outside the box!
