Just got back from the game. Initial thoughts...
1. Watford will probably win the league so let's keep some perspective. I didn't expect much out of tonight prior to the game.
2. Norwich - lots of huff and puff but short on quality and physical presence (I include the welsh pastie monster in this, he didn't add much tonight but maybe will against weaker opposition).
3. Best players - Taylor, Croft, and Martin (who looked well up for it and something more like what we saw last week - Id' play him from the start). Shackell and Brellier not bad. Chadwick OK as well.
4. Rusty - is he good enough? Great engine but poor first touch and can't pass. I know this may be contentious and I'll not fault him for effort but he just doesn't look good enough.
5. Semi - an obvious attacking threat with his pace but didn't seem to want to use that tonight.
6. At least we are showing some fight now - we had a good go in the second half but never really looked like we were going to take anything from the game. That in itself after the last few weeks is an improvement.
7. Referee - prize t**t.
Plymouth - massive game. We have to pick these teams off if we are going to get out of this rut.
