    Hoping to still be doing these in January, Saturdays game sees the start of the festive period of games, we face Huddersfield at Carrow Road.

    Norwich City host Huddersfield Town in their final Sky Bet Championship fixture before Christmas on Saturday (KO 3pm).

    Jonathan Rowe scored a brace as the Canaries drew 2-2 away to Ipswich Town in the East Anglian Derby last weekend.

    News from the presser was good in the injury front, no new injuries reported and everyone except Sargent back in training, with Josh set to join in on Monday. Gianoulis has recovered from the knock that kept him out of the Ipswich match.

    The Opposition

    The Terriers sit in 21st place in the Championship table, sitting two points above Queens Park Rangers who occupy the final spot in the relegation zone. A late penalty from Delano Burgzorg earned Huddersfield a point in their recent league outing away to Millwall.

    One to Watch
    Delano Burgzorg

    With five league goals to his name, Burgzorg will be one of the main attacking threats for Huddersfield. A product of De Graafschap, the 25-year-old had later spells with Spezia and Heracles before joining Mainz 05. He joined Huddersfield on a season-long loan in August.

    Head Coach
    Darren Moore

    Succeeding Neil Warnock in September, Darren Moore is into his fourth managerial job. His first role was with West Bromwich Albion, before a spell with Doncaster Rovers. In March 2021, he took over at Sheffield Wednesday and guided the Owls to promotion from League One in the 2023 play-offs.

    Positive vibes!!!

    ON THE BALL CITY!!!

    NEVER MIND THE DANGER!!!

    Quality thread as usual buddy.
    I think it's about time we gave someone a good hiding.
    This is our chance, I fancy a comfortable win here.

    I think this will be an interesting test of our mentality after all the energy expended at Ipswich can we return to a normal league game, put in a good performance and win

    Mighty Ipswich are losing 0-3 at HT at Leeds. That would close the gap a bit.

    Leeds whipped Ipswich 4-0 - I have a feeling today is going to be a good day.

    Is the team a secret? Not published on sky or here. Will check Philippine tv, they may have it. Sarcasm overload.

    OK, from the pink, Gianoulis is back, Hernandez starts, Gibson and Hwang on the bench. This is not from Philippine tv folks, it is real.

    Is Barnes injured, or just being rested?

    Any streams?

    Actually, no DD input so far. Rely on him, and others, for streams.

    Onel offered nothing of note so far, as expected, needs hooking for Idah at HT.

    Anyone got radio Norfolk on? Any ideas who's the lady on co-comms?

    She plays for the women's team and I think her commentary has been good so far. Not the usual cliche comment we get from ex male players.
