Howard Webb gets the big game for being a bit crap

It was a terrible decision, and now ref Howard Webb has been punished for awarding Manure a penalty for a perfectly fair challenge by Spurs keeper Gomes. His punishment? He's reffing our game against Bongo on Sunday. Crikey!

Royals sink Canaries to set up epic Bongo clash

Well who knew? The drama started on Saturday evening as Bongo FC contrived to throw away a 1-0 lead over Preston and ended up losing at St. Andrews by 2 goals to 1. A lifeline for the Royals especially when their faint hopes of automatic promotion were dealt a blow when Sheffield United beat Swansea by a solitary goal. We had to win at Carrow Road to make Sunday's showdown with Bongo mean something for both sides and not just a 90 minute exercise in party-pooping. To add fuel to the flames Norwich City were on the brink of an ignominious relegation to League One, realistically they needed a win last night to have any real chance of survival.

By all accounts it was a fairly accomplished win for the Royals last night, following on from a similar performance and scoreline days previously at Derby. Shane Long bagged a second-half brace and continuinh his excellent form, both assists coming from a rejuvenated Jimmy Kebe. Delia's mob looked like a side on their way down, but the job still has to be done. So it's come to this, a match we have to win - but it's at home! If ever we needed to 'back the boys' it is this Sunday. It seems surreal to think after such a long run of indifferent form that we could be promoted to the Premier League. The atmosphere should be fantastic, I'm excited already. As long as the boys give it a go I'll be happy. None of the other play-off teams look invincible by any stretch of the imagination, so if we don't get the automatic spot then we should have a lot more confidence than we did a few weeks back.
