I am really looking forward to this game. An early Saturday evening game under the floodlights at a sultry Carrow Road after a day on the beach at Cromer catching crabs and feasting on locally caught fish n chips.

After our last two unlucky games Rovers will be well up for 3 points on the road. We were unlucky at Burnley thanks to a nailed on penalty being turned down by the referee; if that had been given and BBD scored I have little doubt we would have gone on to crush our 6 fingered friends. As for the Preston game we were clearly the better team and we dominated action only for a few divots and lumps in the pitch cruelly working againt us to deny what would have been a well deserved victory. That is football for you - such a cruel game as Rovers fans are well aware.

Our ace Head Coach (the Danish Messi) has been leading training and singing practice this week. I have little doubt that our starting 11 at Norwich will put the Canaries to the sword with a wonderfully tuneful rendition of ‘Silent Night’. As for the football J ‘Smurf’ DT as he is naughtily known as by Rovers staff has been strutting his stuff and practising his sickly smile for the post-match Press Conference’: ”we had zee game in zee palm of our handies, sadly the players duz not listen to me pruperly and they continue to frustrate the fook out of me.”

I will be travelling down with the hordes of Rovers fans for this game. I intend to stop for some crabbing at Cromer and to meet by the seaside with my jolly old Rovers friends Blue Kate and Carol ‘The Chest’ Vorderman. They won’t jointly share a bed with me so Carol will be on the beach and Kate has promised to put on her sexy party dress for a quickie up the Prom.

After a frolic on the beach and a poking on the pier it is off to sunny Norwich to watch the Rovers perform. Norwich has few claims to fame apart from producing Coleman’s Mustard (now imported from China) and some silly street names. One of the street names that comes to mind is ‘St. Gregory’s Back Alley’; I am not sure I would want to be up there after a couple of shandies.

However we must not forget the famous Delia Smith, the doyen of Norwich City and Queen of the Sherry Trifle topped with Blancmange and Angel Delight. Never mind Kate or Carol the real reason for my visit to Norwich is to sample a pair of Delia’s firm dumplings; I prefer mine with a dribble of beef and onion gravy. I suggested this in an introductory email to Delia and she was not happy.

Delia Was So Angry With BB She Threatened To Do This 😳😱

In his usual fashion BB managed to talk Delia around with his famous sweet talk. He explained his culinary expertise and that he was author of both Hot Asian Cookery and Cooking Brazilian Style. She was so impressed that Rovers no1 fan now has the promise of a seat in the Directors Box and following the game a private 1-1 demonstration of how to dress like a chef.

The game itself should be a hard one. Rovers need to well drilled and continue slipping it across the back but this time with a bit more urgency. I predict another Rovers masterclass (or should that be Master Chef?) and unless we curry favour with the referee we could be in for a spanking.

4-0 to Norwich

Peace & Love at Christmas - Happy Holidays

I see Drog is playing spot the mistake in the match details again, it's about time he started offering a prize. :)

As for the game, the head says a spanking but the heart says a big reaction from the boys and a 2 - 1 win.

Think we should let Delia do the pre match pep talk....... LETS BE HAVIN' YOU.....

If we don't improve on the last two matches I fear another Fulham score, six or seven nil. If they do manage to get back on track although God only knows how and even then I'll go 3-0 to Norwich.

Sadly going 3-0 Norwich we will be outclassed on and off the ball and Rovers will be guff to watch, I am that confident I will be giving todays game a miss a first in almost 2 years of not watching by any means.
