SuperDerbySuperRams Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 These are the sort of games we always seem to lose after a good run. Leeds looks that way too. Hopefully things have changed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadioactiveWaste Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Im with my arsenal mate sat in the west stand. Norwich have been good but looking knackered with an extra half hour to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ninos Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 A true test of how good we are. If we come through this with 3 points then you’ve got to believe something is happening. Lose and it’s basically indicative that we aren’t a top team in this league - yet. Think Johnson will return to the starting lineup and Russell and Tom will keep their spots. Guessing Winnall or Nugent will get the nod up front. Not averse to Martin but dude can’t score and prob won’t score. I’d prefer Thorne and Ledley with Johnson as the three centre mids but Rowett won’t pick Thorne to start. I’d also like to see Baird or Max Man in for Fozzy whos just so random in his distribution. And the sooner Luke Thomas gets promoted to the first team the better . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrowram Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Hopefully after a tough two hour game Norwich will be well tired with groin strains and calf strains all around. They got a few bookings too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admira Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 The extra time means Norwich have played three and a half hours of football since the Rams finished against Sheffield Wednesday. That has to give us the edge fitness-wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archied Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 I would go for Carson wisdom. Keough. Davies. Forsyth Thorne. Ledley Johno lawrence. Vydra. Russell with vyds interchangeable with nugent or martin if ball retention up front is a problem but that's one very solid away side with pace up front to catch them on the break Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They got a few bookings too! Norwich played well last night. Was a performance away at a strong opposition that i think Rowett would have admired for large parts. But they lost and will be knackered and perhaps a comedown after two big matches v up switch and arsenal. Norwich number 9 last night was like Martin at his best with holdup play.

kash_a_ram_a_ding_dong Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 I do agree that this will probably be a litmus test of where we are....Norwich are a good side who should be able to properly test our defence and stretch our midfield. Will be interesting. Expect an unchanged line up and will do until we lose 60 nil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree this is the moment to stand up and be counted. They're sixth and we go above them if we win (though probably won't enter a playoff spot). I hope we put in a performance. If we win I will be foolish and start to believe. Draw and the jury's out. I'm a great believer in playing people against their former clubs which would give Johnson and Martin a spot and make us more solid. In that case I'd rest Huddlestone and Nuge. Winnell will be back on the bench after not being allowed against Wednesday. Not sure who drops out but am sure Luke Thomas won't get a spot. And unless we sell Anya and Weimann in January he won't anytime soon apart from maybe the FA Cup third round. And based on his consistently excellent performances in the U23s it would be deserved.

VulcanRam Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 I don't buy this "they played in midweek so will be tired" rubbish. These are professional elite sportsmen. Expect a hard game at a ground we rarely do well at, and on the predictions thread gone for an optimistic 0-0, which will be a very good result. For me, Johnson in for Huddlestone and the rest unchanged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edinburgh ram Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 I’d go with this Carson wisdom Keogh Davies Forsyth Ledley Johnson Lawrence Vydra Russell Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A tricky game, yes, but I’m struggling to see how a win means something special is happening and a defeat makes us not a top team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
