    It is indeed how it works, what I really meant is that our refusal to let him play shows intent that we want him at the club and it would be foolish to have him cup-tied

    Just seen this by Melissa Rudd and she reiterates what many on here have been saying since the window closed - "Jerome is a player who often bears the brunt of criticism, especially after missing gilt-edged chances like the one with just the goalkeeper to beat in the ninth minute on Saturday. There are plenty of fans though who point to his work rate and lack of service as to reasons why he has only found the net once in the league all season. When you look at his contribution this campaign though, it’s easy to see why Jerome frustrates. So far from 24 attempts at goal he has averaged one shot on target every 133 minutes played. Astonishing when you consider City play with a lone striker. Is it any wonder the team have struggled for goals when the player highest up the pitch hasn’t been able to test the goalkeeper at least once per match and two-thirds of his attempts miss the target? It would be completely unfair to lay City’s goalscoring problems at the door of one player who has scored some crucial goals during his time here, while others are guilty of missing chances too in the past month. It’s more of a sad indictment of the lack of strength in depth Norwich have in the squad that Farke has little option but to play Jerome given that Marley Watkins provided very little threat when given a rare chance to start against Wolves."

    I am sure Morris and Godfrey are on a season long loan, which cannot have a recall clause I believe.. Replace Reed with Phillips and give Abrahams a tryout.

    GE - this was buried in the OP - "Early news from today’s presser - DF confirms Godfrey, Morris, Adams all have a January recall option. Lincoln & #ncfc in discussions over Raggett's FA Cup involvement", so we MIGHT see then back in the New Year!!!!
