Norwich City 3 - 4 Derby County

Carrow Road
Norwich
1500
29 Dec 2018

Tough fixture against the Canaries fresh from a remarkable come back against the dogs. We had a creditable draw against Norwich in October after another annoying defeat against Bolton in the previous game.

Comment count on the match thread is now directly correlated to the effort that the players put in on the pitch.

Ahhh!! that match in Yorkshire on Boxing Day.....mmmmm......actually we did alrightish but once again we were the architects of our own downfall. And we conceded first again. To me and this is almost the 'Derby way', we do not have the nous to play differently during a game. You can almost predict what is going to happen.........and invariably it does

BJ must be favoured to face his old club after coming back from biting but TL is still an injury doubt and will not feature. We have a semi-crisis with full backs but the only prediction that I will make is that the back four will remain the same as the one that started at Bramall Lane.

And will Griff and Ang meet up? Will Ang get his car washed?

Hopefully the confidence boost will see us push-on successfully in 2019?

Interesting that a Carson punt to Marriott resulted in a Norwich goal, but the same move later led to our winner, (and how did Nuge influence our fourth [Frank's words], he was no where near it as far as I can make-out)?

I think Frank's making a case for Nuge, so he can put him in against Boro
He is a legend, however....

Clearly Nugent drew the other centre back who might otherwise have covered the space towards the other side of the pitch. Absolute genius by Nuge.

Last gasp Carson save was;

"Todd Cantwell had a shot tipped round the post" according to the Independent website:

Well that was an unbelievable game! I was traveling down to my friends in Cannock, so I got Radio Derby from Sheffield. I thought we were going to get a right tanking but fair play to the team they kept going!
Any truth in the rumour that MM got lost on the way to the toilets & found himself in the electrical room with a pair of snips in his hand?
