Norwich 5 Huddersfield 0

Was at the match last Saturday and after a goaless first half was disappointed that Norwich had not scored even though Huddersfield were down to ten men!
Then on came Nathan Redmond and it all changed with him scoring one goal and creating two others as he sliced through the defense in the way that only he can!
Norwich have not scored 5 goals in just one half of a match for many years!

Norwich are seventh at Christmas in the championship. Do you think they'll make the play offs this year? The championship seems even closer than usual!

Well Boundngag, I really don't know as it depends on what impact Alex Neil will have. Since he has taken over they had two good wins but lost last Saturday following a questionable penalty awarded for a foul that on replay seemed outside the area!

They are currently eighth.

Gills have managed to climb out of the relegation zone so anything is possible have faith.... is "lets be having you" Delia still calling the shots there?

Gillingham are now 17th in League 1, 7 points off the relegation zone and 5 points off the play offs. Maybe they could mount a late promotion challenge, now they have Justin Edinburgh as manager? Was Peter Taylor really that bad a manager? To think, he once managed England!

Norwich are 7th in the Championship, 3 points off the play offs. It looks like Norwich stand as good a chance as the teams around them of landing a play off spot.

Arsenal, on the other hand, are 6th in the premier league, 2 points off of fourth spot. Given the lame performance against Spurs on Saturday, it could be a struggle to make the top four this season. I was pretty optimistic after we beat Man City too! Last season we won the FA Cup, at the start of this season we signed Alexis Sanchez, we won the Community Shield and yet now it seems we're going backwards again! Until Wenger leaves, guess this is all we can expect.

That's a good question John. Delia is seen regularly in her box but how much influence she now has is questionable.
Her money certainly helps!

Norwich City 0 Wigan 1

After the outstanding performance on Sunday when they won against Ipswich Town by 2 goals I had great hopes for this match.
Boy, was I wrong !
We had superb seats but had to watch a sloppy performance with endless bookings. Yes, the ref and linesman made some questional decisions to the chants of "you don't know what you're doing" and worse !!
If we had won we would have been second but now drop to fifth again.
Why can we not be consistant!

Gill went 9 unbeatedn till last Sat, but won again on Tuesday. From being one point above the relegation zone before Christams, they are now 3 points of the playoffs!

Still, being realistic, I wont hold out too much hope until it looks like a real possibility

[boundngag]

Gillingham now look safe from relegation for this season, with an outside of reaching the play offs. It's a good time of the season to come into form! If Gillingham don't make it this season, it looks like they'll have a good chance next season. Justin Edinburgh, despite his dubious playing past, seems to be a good manager. You know, if they make the championship, maybe even I'll start to go. If prices are reasonable, of course!

Norwich bounce back up to Premier League

After their 2 nil defeat of Middleboro at Wembley Stadium Alex Neil has been successful in his quest for Premier League status.
Goals came from Redmond and the leading goal scorer this season, Jerome.
It was a cracking performance by Norwich watching on Sky and I look forward to seeing them play at Carrow Road next season.

[boundngag]

Hopefully they will perform well! Norwich seemed to come good towards the end of the season, while the other teams petered out a bit. I think they had one of the best squads in the championship and so maybe they will build on that in the summer transfer window.

Norwich City 0 Sunderland 3

I was at this match on Saturday which Norwich had, in my view, got to win to stay up.
Thrashed 3 nil is not the result I wanted !!

[John]

Our team are having an absolute mare at the moment so I feel your pain

[boundngag]

It is a shame. Norwich have played well quite often this season. It's actually quite similar to the last time you were in the Premier League. Some clubs are a yo-yo club for a few seasons, before they go on to establish themselves in the Premier League. Of the other teams going down, Aston Villa look quite likely to continue to struggle as their owner still hasn't managed to sell and I think if Newcastle go down and Benitez leaves, then they could struggle as well. So I think Norwich would be in a fairly good position to come straight back up.

Norwich 4 Watford 2

Despite a cracking match last night Norwich are to be relegated from the Premier league AGAIN !!

All too little too late I am afraid!

Don't think Nathan Redmond will hang about in the Championship as he has shown some real talent last night.

Rumour has it that Delia may even sell up !!
