Unfortunately we pay the top teams to much respect. We defend and inevitably get beaten. We should play as though we have nothing to lose a bit more and we will pick up the odd win.

Completely agree, a "shock" win against one of the top teams would turn the table in our favour. Three points on Saturday could be critical too as we need to put even more pressure on those below us at the earliest opportunity.

I think this weekend is huge for Fulham, they are playing lot of clubs down the bottom in their run-in and a win away to Cardiff could be a great moral boost. Sunderland beating cup finalist and still on a run in the FA, how will that affect them? Plus their games in hand, will start to stack up. Saying that

I think it will be out of

Cardiff
Norwich
West Brom
Fulham
Palace
Sunderland

Norwich's run in has become a cliche of 2013/2014. Their last four games are a nightmare, but I don't think it's forgone that they're down.

Prior to their final four, they have the following games:

Southampton
Sunderland (H)
Swansea
West Brom (H)
Fulham

That could easily be 10 points.

However, what could be more telling was how they dissolved after Benteke's wonder goal. Reminded me of our game vs Fulham. If they can sort their confidence out, they could yet be a threat. I think the board's decision to stick with Hughton is based in the run above. Another hammering to Southampton and I think he'll go.

I still think it's premature to write anyone off with a quarter of the season still to go.

 


Wife beating may be socially acceptable in Sheffield, but it is a different matter in Cheltenham

Norwich could easily get 10 points alone as you say which would give them the 38 points I forecast.
As someone else said - you can't write anyone off with so long to go.

Norwich could easily get a win against one of the big teams and if they got 10 points by the last four games that would see them easily safe. I think WBA are our best hope.

Also don't we Have City and Liverpool in our last four? Our record would suggest they are defeats.

It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses.

Costs a lot on the back of a shirt !
Norwich paid £8.5 Mill for him in the summer but he has failed to deliver.

norwich got huge problems, looks like my early (beginning March) outside punt of them landing up in bottom three could soon hit reality with fulham having a bit of a revival.

norwich remaining fixtures are:::

fulham v norwich
norwich v Liverpool
man utd v norwich
chelsea v norwich
norwich v arsenal

I cant see norwich getting another point
