Two remarkable things about today's game:

1) QPR didn't score three goals!
2) QPR didn't concede three goals!

I couldn't make the match myself as I was out of the country last weekend, but my parents went and said I was a great game that should never have been 0-0 - they thought 3-3 would have been about right.

Let's hope the next time we meet is at Wembley

Couldn't get a ticket for this one - so nothing to report except those play-offs are getting further away. Good luck to Colchester, it is good to have two worthy East Anglian teams in the Championship.

We're staying up in the Championship - yes after our well earned point there's no possibility of relegation from the Championship this year

Always look on the bright side of .....

I don't like play-offs anyway.

Jim in car crash, but he's OK.

PRAISE FOR RESCUE SERVICES
Posted on: Fri 11 Apr 2008
Town Chairman David Sheepshanks has praised the rescue services and the actions of a driver after he and Jim Magilton were involved in an accident on the A12 last night. The Chairman and Jim were travelling back from London with advisor Charlie Woods and staff member Wolfe Powell when the Landcruiser they were in was hit from behind. The road was closed while Essex ambulance and fire rescue services were called.

Speaking to the Club website, the Chairman said: We had virtually come to a standstill in the traffic when we were hit at speed from behind. I can remember being shoved against the pillar by the windscreen and we've all got bumps, bruises and some whiplash. The car we were driving is a 4 x 4 and is a write off and that shows you the impact. We were lucky we were in a big car like that or things could have been much worse. The car that hit us burst into flames and the real hero of the day was a young guy driving a van who pulled the driver out of the car. He possibly saved the driver's life. The Essex emergency services were fantastic and could not have been more attentive. We were taken to hospital to be checked over and fortunately everyone's okay. The guy in the car that hit us suffered a broken leg but it could have been so much worse. It was a miraculous escape really for all but we are all okay and now the focus is on Norwich and Sunday.

Woah.

Yup, hats off to the Tractor Boys for avoiding relegation!

And bring on Sunday - a sell out too!!!

Just home - whoo hoo!!!! Should have been at least 5-1 though!

I reckon 7-0 - thought Bywater should have saved the Squawkers shot. Marshall was outstanding in their goal - mind you he gets more practice than most behind that defence. Enjoyed Pearce's goal .

Good to see Pablo back, now all is forgiven. The rest did him good he was superb and only spitting distance from a goal.

Some tough games coming up and I think the opposition will be more demanding than the lot we played today.

After the match the managers were interviewed and were asked their ambitions for the rest of this season and next.

Roeder answered first saying that if Norwich could survive this season and stay above the relegation zone next year then he thought he would have done a great job.

Jim said he thought we'd go up through the play-offs into the Premier League, win it at the first attempt beating Man Utd, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool home and away and go on to win the Champions League the season after.

When the interviewer asked Jim if he were being a bit unrealistic, he replied Why? Glen Roeder started it.

ATB Rotf

One game to go

See you all again next year in the Championship

We are staying up, we are staying up.

I hope next year we can retain our home form and figure out how to reproduce it away.

Are we keeping our sponsors (unlike Delia's all stars)?

James - I think the deal with E-On runs out at the end of the year, currently next year's strip looks like this



There is still the outside chance of winning the Premier League next season, but it needs lots of results to go our way.

Jon Walters' late equaliser at Preston in the 2-2 draw coupled with Crystal Palace's defeat at Hull and Watford's home loss to Skunthorpe has kept the top six finish alive. Victory for Town next Sunday will take Town to 69 points and a Play-Off place would be assured if either Watford or Palace lose and Wolves fail to beat Plymouth. Sheffield United are level on points with Town but their goal difference is inferior by two.

Sorry ROTF - it will be the Palace.

You're probably right, Steve.

But we could sneak in instead of Wolves or Watford.

Good luck with Hull Rotf

On 5th May, it is the 30th anniversary of one of the greatest events in British, nay World, history ( read all about it).
