Must win, 6-pointer blah blah blah...

Storming 4-2 win with Bent, Gabby and 2 from The Zogster

Sitting in the Trinity for only the third time since 1974 - do they allow swearing?

A must win game.  The effect of a defeat on the confidence of the team (and the supporters) could be devastating.

These days and for a long time now, I have not been confident which Villa team would turn up.  It has been a long time since I thought guaranteed 3 points.

The one thing that could swing it for us is PL experience.

Hoping Jenas is going to be fit and Ireland can displace Heskey

Confident we will beat the Canaries and whereas my heart says a comfortable 4-1 win my head says it will be a slightly more stressful 2-1 win

Draw. They take the lead first half, we get one back second, and then spend half an hour farting about and not breaking them down.

spot on. I really hope Jenas comes on and I'd like to see us with some actual technical skill in the midfield.

I can't believe i'm worried about playing Norwich at home, or how it important it is for the confidence of players and fans.
I'm hoping for a straightforward win, i'm expecting a nervy 2-1 win where we are desperately holding on. Or a draw because we failed to desperately hold on.
