To be fair Norwich were just outplayed tonight, Robbie Brady had a stinker for them but like ourselves they have a few on their books that are former players at this stage, Naismith and Jerome to mention two.

Bit of an average side in truth which we saw during the week. Huddersfield by far the better team, fearless in posession and breaking with speed and intent all game.

We look a dog awful kick and rush team in comparison. I expect our wage bill is many multiples of theirs to make matters worse.

watching Norwich v Huddersfield at the moment, Aaron Mooy (baldy midfielder) totally dominating the game for Huddersfield in midfield.

would be a great signing for us to partner his fellow Aussie Jedinak in midfield.
He was noticeably the pivotal point of their midfield when they played at our place and is the ideal type of player that we need, but as has been mentioned Huddersfield is only a parking place until he returns to Citeh. To be fair to them, they only have 16 players on loan.

The Huddersfield side who we battered senseless under the feckless RDM?

I remember Huddersfield actually battering us for most of the second half and the bald midfielder dominating play. Their equaliser whilst fortunate was fully deserved.

Leicester down to 10, Vardy sent off, and 1-0 down. I wonder if anyone had a bet on relegation for them?

I changed one of my FL strikers yesterday. I couldn't decide whether to bring in Negredo or Defoe. Negredo has already scored twice today. Guess which one I chose.

Looks like an assist from Defoe so far today.

Johnson puts Preston in the lead. Did he ever actually make an appearance for us  ?

Bloody Sheff Wed with a last minute penalty. I cashed out 5 minutes too early.

9 points off the play-offs now. We desperately need to string some wins together.

'Fun' fact. After 17 games, 16 sides have already matched our points total from last season.

Amazing what a win of one win in three does in this division. Feels like we well off the race for promotion again

An awful day for us.

Pretty much every result was the worst possible for us.

The Rags miss an open goal in the first minute, hitting the post.
