    A draw would be a great result tomorrow
    But only if three points we can´t amass,
    And shouldn´t in any way cause us sorrow
    If that indeed is what should come to pass

    But so we keep up our recent momentum
    It´s crucial that this one we do not lose,
    So HMS Canary, on the Wensum
    Can continue on its promotion cruise

    Against a team of Watford´s firepower
    If Captain Neil can plot a winning course,
    It could turn out to be his finest hour
    And suggest that we yet will be a force

    But sometimes on our passage there´ll be water
    Too dangerous or difficult to breach,
    At such times when neither will give a quarter
    Then stalemate is the best outcome to reach

    Now I´m sure Neil will work to be victorious
    In each remaining port on our journey,
    But there may be some, not totally glorious
    Where one point still may be as good as three. OTBC

    Some canny rhymes at times there RBF, but wonderfully crafted as ever. I would certainly take a point as you suggest, but if we go with that intention there is a good chance that we may come away empty handed. The draw at Derby was the result of a fine attacking display and I think that will be the gameplan tomorrow with hopefully the additional points.

    Nice one yet again RBF. This is a difficult one to predict with the Bookies putting the best odds on a draw, with Watford and City on about the same odds for a win. I wouldn't settle for a draw now, but I wouldn't be that disappointed with one either. Three points would be wonderful though! OTBC!

    This will be a real test for us, Watford have a sloppy defence but are capable of scoring lots of goals so this has got 0-0 written all over it!

    Terrific poem RBF <ok>

    I absolutely agree THURNBY, we mustn´t go with the intention to draw, but I almost took it as read, that with the little we already know of Mr. Neil, that would never be on his agenda. ;) Can see this one being very close indeed, they´ll want revenge for the earlier 0 - 3 , and we´ll want to keep our good run going.
