Doncaster v Norwich City match thread

[ron obvious 1,502]

Can''t see the subs here, so I thought I''d post them:Rudd, Hughes, Jackson, Fox, Johnson, Lappin, Askou.

[Rudolph Hucker 0]

Is anyone else wondering why we changed a successful formula?

Is Tony just an impact player?

For me Lappin should have started and we should have stuck to our usual slow build into a game whilst wearing down the opposition ready for a change. How do we change offensively from here?

0 - 0 is never a bad half time score for Norwich so why not be patient?

I really hope I am wrong. Come on Tony and come on City!!

Seems odd to abandon a system after only 25 minutes but there seems to have been absolutely no pressing. Letting Donc control the ball and shoot from distance..

Yes I wonder that every time a winning team is changed, why fix it if it ain''t broke.

I had the same thoughts. Lappin is a solid away from home and Macca can be an impact player. Oh well we shall see.

We will win 3-1, at least Binners are losing[Y]

we are starting to get in to it a bit more now, need to keep closing them down

[norfolkbroadslim 223]

Have we switched back to the diamond?

Someone needs to stick one on Coppinger!

[/quote]More or less. Mac on the left, Korey on the right, Wes and Crofts in the middle in their usual positions.

I hope so too, but i do feel weve over achieved slightly so far this season so a defeat or two wouldnt suprise me.

A win''s a win''s a win in my eyes, we need points on the board as we did last season, however they achieve that I don''t care lol

Much better.

[/quote]Seems to have woken them up a bit. Mac is often anonymous and always was when he started last year. His pace is great late in the game and he may well come good tonight, but it''s a ballsy change to make, especially away from home. Contrary to the belief of some, the diamond isn''t broke.

I was worried about having so many luxury players and it''s been the case, only Crofts & Smith to disrupt the Donny pasisng.

[WeAreYellows49 0]

Well at least the scum are losing 2 -0

[norfolkbroadslim 223]

Barnsley equalize against dirty Leeds, Binners losing 2-0 [:)][Y]

[Rudolph Hucker 0]

I wonder if the reason for going more attacking with Tony and Wes in the side is the form of Grant Holt.

Holt looks a shadow of last season so far so maybe Lambert is trying to get him more supply?

[lincoln canary (& Golden Coppel) 0]

I think Hughes should have started instead of Mac. Much better at keeping position and not as gung ho. Macca will only ever be an impact player off the bench, especially away from home.

lol don''t think I''d like to be the players at half time [:S]

[city till i die 0]

dont worry we are a second half team!!!

[norfolkbroadslim 223]

HT 1-0[:(]
