Upping Their Game- Norwich City 2 Watford 0

Things still look a little iffy. Three games to go, six points clear but everyone at the bottom end is upping their game.

Maybe Danny Rose is a secret agent after all.

I played around on the BBC predictor site after the result today. It does us a slight disservice in that it omits our game with Coventry so you can only ever end up with us playing 45 games when everyone else has played 46. I couldn't quite come up with a set of results that would send us down but we were only escaping by the skins of our teeth.

Saturday is going to be very tough. I can't really imagine us getting anything out of it. If results go against us down at the bottom we could find ourselves having to up our game against Coventry. If we don't, who fancies an uncomfortable afternoon watching Nathan Ellington, playing his last game for Derby before returning to the Vic, trying to send his parent club down to League One? Stranger things have happened although Duke does seem to have rather fallen out of favour since the arrival of Nigel Clough. I wonder why?
