Could do with Little on the right tonight. 

I mean, you're certainly persistent.

Just dont think he's quite done enough yet to deserve a start with Fammy available.  A useful sub if Fammy and Bobby are not working and another opportunity to earn a start.

Would prefer to see our own players given an opportunity rather than a loanee.

I kind of agree, but we have a fee agreed for Woodrow already so if he does well he could very well be our player. Therefore I'd rather he got an oportunity to show what he can do at some point and I think we are better off thinking of his loan as a 1-year trial.

I guess he means clear cut chances.

When my German's as good as his English I might be afford myself to be more of a pedant 

I am actually able to count to 10 in German so clearly, I'm in a good position to be critical.

Farke knows

Apparently, we didn't have a single chance and were camped outside our box? Very onesided view of the game. And what exactly is a 100% chance? 

Found this from their pre-game predictions

They are eight games unbeaten in all competitions. Let's not make it nine. My Bristol Rovers supporting friends are desperate for us to stop them in their tracks. Come on City. 

View from the Norwich forum:

That was woeful! Their keeper didn’t even make a save! We have become more boring to watch than we were under Hughton! 

A decent draw, I suppose, but feel a bit numb upfront as we don't look like we're going to score when we attack. 

Bristol havent really created that much either, can only remember Gunn making one decent save all match.. pretty poor game all round.

Decent result well done boys

except that pass forward should have been collected by Reid who is not quite up to his usual high standards today.

Fair point, I'm being a bit harsh just showing that its sometimes his final ball that lets him down. I'm a huge fan though. Going to be a great player for us.

Great play form COD

A great example of what COD's strengths and weaknesses. Drive forward bursts past a couple of Norwich players, plays a pass to a Norwich player, runs all the way back to win the ball back again.

My sum up: Norwich have had the better of it, but we have been decent. We’ve looked dangerous and had chances. We have also had a good amount of possession. 

I’d say 1st goal will make a huge difference if we get it the game would be there for the taking.  I'd give Leko a little bit of time on the left 2nd half see if he has some joy but otherwise, we need to swap him out. Think Taylor could cause them problems with his movement - so if we wanted to be really brave you could swap him for Leko push Brownhill right and have Bobby in behind a front two of FD and MT with Smith sitting and PAtts on the left. (although that's probably a bit gung-ho for Norwich away!).

On a side note, the atmosphere is terrible. City fans are making some noise but Norwich are virtually silent awful support.

Their number 19 having a real strop

great play form pats to get a corner

I don't know if it's the sound on my feed but it sounds really flat. Hardley any atmosphere and in truth it hasn't been a bad game.

Leko getting no change out of their full back

Don't think we've really got him on the ball in their half yet.  

Edit: Break in play and LJ is having a good chat with him.

Norwich  hit the post

Another corner.

Norwich number 11 looks to be their danger man...

That would be Murphey

Probably should have found Fammy from the cross he had managed to get free.

Good chance worked for Jerome he puts it wide.

COYR!!

Some views from the Derby forum:

Absolutely pasted. 

Lucky to be 4. Hope you're a quick learner Gary because you're serving up some utter crap! 

Bristol city's players are still going now, where the hell have ours been all afternoon. No character yet again, no fight, no desire, no energy.

Best team won, complete ahnilation s**** happens, enjoy it when we win and accept it when we lose (that's what being a Ram is clearly all about) 

Thrashed by a better faster more skillful side
