[Albion] Norwich - Time To Get Our Mojo Back

[sydney]

no doubt this game will stink out the MotD studio, last on, 3 minutes tops.

0-0 and they just show the Narwich coach reversing out of the car park.

Very much a double-edged sword this one..........all going to go very toxic if we lose with a poor performance

Home win,and the 15k left in the stadium on 82 minutes will erupt causing mutterings of oh fiddlesticks, we've scored why do they always do that whilst we're stood in the bus queue.

It's time for The Fishy

My results put us only 3 points above safety but in 15th. Everton go down. But, there are 12 games involving two teams below us playing each other, 6 pointer games. If I had time I'd do some calculation showing exactly how many points each team could get based on these games and what in reality is a 'safe' points number. May do this later.

If the Albion were a boxer, the team would have glass boots instead of a chin.
My mojo will recover when we beat Naaaaarich

The most overly developed girl in my primary school would show us her bra for a Toffo.

What did your last rolo get?

I can see us throwing away clear cut chances in front of goal and ending up drawing 1-1.

 

[Reagulls]

I only had time to do the Brighton scores and let the computer do the rest
I have us at 14th on 41 points...lose to all the bigger teams and hopefully get a couple of wins/draws from Norwich/Leeds/Wolves



10 Wolverhampton 38 +4 57
11 Southampton 38 -10 47
12 Crystal Palace 38 -3 43
13 Newcastle 38 -21 43
14 Brighton 38 -10 41
15 Leeds 38 -34 38
16 Brentford 38 -17 37
17 Everton 38 -28 29
18 Watford 38 -34 29
19 Burnley 38 -25 27
20 Norwich 38 -53 20

AS others have pointed out, given the form table, no reason why we should "expect to win" and Norwich will also look at this as a game they can get points from given our form, home record etc. Definitely a game we can win, and an early goal would help the atmosphere without a doubt, but sadly I suspect it will be a struggle and the atmosphere will be "tense"! Bed-wetters and Lickers alike will troll out the same arguments whatever the result.. (a 5-0 win proves nothing - its only Norwich FFS vs. A GP masterclass, give him to players to do this more regularly ; a 0-5 reverse : GP has to go vs. Give him the tools, the players are shot, this is the PL FFS; a 0-0 draw variations on the previous... I shall stay clear for a day or two if it doesn't go well!!!

Hopefully the break will have done the players a favour. The players needed a change of scenery and a change of voices in their changing rooms. Alexis Mac has spent a few days training and playing with Leo Messi - that's quite a step up from playing and training with Solly March!

For once I'm going to have to agree with you on a football related topic.

Very similar - I had us in 14th but on 37 points and a GD of -10 with Everton (28), Burnley (26) and Norwich (19) to go down

I just entered one result - Norwich winning away on Saturday - and it had us finishing 13th. with 40 points!

It isn't the Toffo's we wanted to see a picture of, it's the over developed girl in your primary school who . . .

You want to ogle an eleven year old?

 

[Acker79]

I don't think our place in the premier league rides on the game, so in that sense, it's not a 'must win'.

Having said that, I think as far as mood, momentum, etc, it is. If we come back and lose or even draw (at home, against the bottom side with one foot in the championship) not only will fan reaction be more toxic, the team will continue their downward momentum, the break did nothing and the run will never end*. A win and the break did us the world of good. It's a reset point, we can face the rest of the season with renewed positivity, the monkey is off our back, we can play more freely etc.

(*- intended as an example of the hyperbolic rhetoric the negative result would engender, rather than a prediction of forever doom)

As she is now is what l meant!

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Pitiful state of affairs that the club's season-defining game rests on somehow trying to scrape a win against Norwich f*cking City

 

[GT49er]

Hmmm ..............................................

 

[Weststander]

Season and career defining.

A loss will see a mass demo from the 234 home fans still left in the Amex at final whistle, with another 14 in a lynch-mob waiting for Potter (P45 in hand) in his Mercedes-Maybach to leave the car park.



Whilst a win will see 17,227 in delirium.
