Sounding like Naismith is struggling with a hamstring, which is a pity as he has impressed me in recent games.

I would have thought that Dijks will start, Wildschutt maybe more likely to if Naismith is out?

pretty certain that Dijks will start, if Naismith is out we do have options there in Wildschut, Josh and Prithcard, so thats not too much of an issue, though personally after the last few games, I'd like to see Josh come in for Jacob, also I'd expect Jerome to retain his place, I think he's done enough the last couple of games to make Nelson start on the bench following his suspension

Dijks and Wildschut into the starting lineup in place of Brady and Naismith

With Naismith unavailable no surprise that Wildschut gets the nod.

Just hope we are not taking any risks with his fitness. Thought I had read he also has a hamstring tweak.

I think he played about 20 minutes in the cup game. Generally you don't risk hamstring injuries, so would assume that he has fully trained this week.

Team looks good. I thought Ja Murphy might lose his place but hopefully he will make me look silly for thinking it. Other than that, hoping neither of the new boys has a bad game and goes the way of Canos, Pritchard, ...

Another big game. Can we reverse our disastrous away form? If we can it may indicate that we might just have turned a corner.

Hope the new lads have good games.

Never dull being a canary fan!

Corner turned?
In most other situations I would be inclined to think possibly, just possibly we have. Compare our outlook after this result with feelings walking to the Wolves game which was just 15 days ago. Poles apart.

Tonight we can enjoy looking at the top of the table and considering the possibilities. Feet on the ground our margin for error is minimal - but we have given ourselves a real chance.

Not having that corner turned, but most of the supporters are now looking up the league rather than down so that has to be a good thing.

There's been a noticeable change in a couple of things Neil's said in interviews past couple of games.

When talking about high pressing teams, he's now said use a long ball to counter it,and his comments about defending have altered too.

My opinion is that's a good thing, let's hope he is learning to use appropriate tactics so we can see out games in a professional manner. Time will tell if it's a lesson he masters, let's face it, we will need it next season if we do get promoted.

AN certainly seems a lot more relaxed now the pressure is off a little.
