    Norwood got under 15 minutes didn’t he? Apart from his lack of fitness he’s done alright for us given the terrible service he’s had.

    Definitely time for Jackson to move on for everyone’s sake.

    Jackson:frightening pace but couldn’t trap a ball to save his life,get rid!

    Norwood:just frightening,really needs to control his aggression,always seems like he’s a red card waiting to happen,also get rid!

    I'm a fan of Norwood, defenders would hate playing against him and his goal scoring record for us is very good considering the lack of chances we create and team he's played in. The big question mark is his fitness as he's pretty much spent 90% of his time with us injured. I think he could lead the line in a Paul Cook team and lead the press.

    As for Jackson, very overrated striker. He's like Danny Haynes with out the raw explosiveness of pace which actually means despite being very quick he's easy to manage for defenders

    I think Jackson, pure and simple, has had a horrible time at Town - and Cook has been absolutely vile to him - and probably can’t wait to move on.

    There’s a difference between being a hard man and being hard to play against.Any defender with an ounce of savvy can see how easy Norwood is to wind up to the point where any other attributes he has disappear behind his red mist.

    Probably fortunate we lack savvy defenders in this league then as he hasn't been sent off once for us :emoticon-0110-tongu

    Jackson is surey a outbound deal waiting to happen. Norwood is on his last year so I expect he’ll go at the end of the season esp if we go up because he’s not a championship player. ‘****erer’ my new favourite word.

    And probably pisses the ref off, which doesn't help.

    After the past few games if we can keep Norwood fit I think he could be a key player for us. He occupies defenders which creates space for others and given the attacking talent we have that could be key. Plus he's a good player to lead the press

    I think Norwood has realised he is no longer the big fish at Ipswich so when he get a chance to play he is too gung ho and a red card liability.

    He’s a great option to bring off the bench. Piggot is a better player but we’ve got all the right options up front to change our tactics and that’s his role. Probably last chance of playing at a club at this level so he needs to enjoy it while he can?

    He’s had a decent strike rate for us in a side that creates very little. I still rate him as competition for the starting XI.
