Brentford - away - lost 1-2 - L1
Wycombe - home - won - 5-2 -L1

Norwich 0-7 Walsall
Asps willy nilly and jockey are attempting to wind Big Baz 1 up by hiding his big baz beers on the willy wagon and and saying nasty things about big baz 1`s hero. Big Baz has his revenge by slamming asps on the car roof , making jockey tap out and cutting willy nillys george clooney style beard off.

Another 5 - 0 defeat against Norwich.

Nil shots on target.
Nil corners.
Nil attacking intent at all.

Delia to go on another "Were ar ya?" rant and all 151 Walsall fans to be woken up from the boredom induced slumber.

5-0 Norwich with Mcsporran making his debut for Walsall.....oh sorry wrong year. Feels like Merson is still in charge :mrgreen:

Norwich will win this easily, maybe they need the cricket scoreboard.

Norwich 22-0 Walsall. Parkin to miss 23 penalties.

Still having nightmares after witnessing the birth of the Merson "experiment" at Carrow Road.
No appetite for another borefest/embarrassment so I'll save my cash.
2-0.

Team for Saturday (based on assumed injuries and international call-up):

Gilmartin

Westlake
Smith
'The Beast'
Richards

Jones
Mattis
Bradley
Taundry
Nicholls

Byfield

SUBS:
GK
Parkin
Deeney
Till
O'Keefe
Sansara
Weston

In a five, Bradley could do better; we can't score with 2 up top, so try Byfield with Jones and Nicholls supporting out wide. The problem seems to be we can't get a stranglehold on the centre of the park; give Bradley a go and if the game goes out of our reach, give O'Keefe some much needed game time.

Let's face it, with Gilmartin in goal, Norwich's newfound form and Walsall's inability to score, surely we should try to experiment slightly with midfield because Mattis and Richards ain't workin'. If we lose, at least we've shown a bit of invention (not many Walsall fans would EXPECT 3 points, though I'm optimistic).

If we're chasing the game, just lump balls up in the last ten mins for the Beast and Parkin and Deeney (you never know, Lambert might play the Aussie in goal out of sympathy) :lol:

I'm making the trip (all 5 miles of it!)

We're gonna get lamped out of sight. This lot have turned the corner. You thought the Merson experiment was bad...............

I cannot take the stick I'm going to get at work on Monday, and can feel man-flu coming on already.

Mystic Partridge say 5-0 to Narge.

Just had a quick look on a norwich fan site (norwichcity-mad)

http://boards.footymad.net/forum.php?tno=400&fid=191&sty=2&act=1&mid=2124721744

One question..
"Bonus Question - Which side will have more shots on and off target combined?"
What a stuid question :lol:

I think a nice simple 3-0 defeat should suffice.

Wish I could be there, but the missus wants to go to Edinburgh instead.

Incidentally looking at the fixtures, why do we always play Yeovil away on a Tuesday night?

Was just thinking, anything less than a total whalloping and we'll feel as if we got something from the game!

1-1 is dead optimistic, mind you. :wink:

We will lose 5-0, but " At least we will have some attacks" Then we can all blame the 5-0 defeat as the game which relegated us.

Hutch to go.

Norwich 2 Walsall 0. Mattis to have a weak shot in the 89th minute.

Tinned and Jolly Johnny to turn up in a battered 1972 Nissan Sunny, which infuriates the home fans :|
