A lot better performance even better to see Hoolahan, Holt and martin hit the target to take their cumulative total of goals up to 60 as we dismissed the challenge of the visitors with a minimum of fuss.  I am left wondering this morning, still,  were we gods or were Yeovil one of the most ineffective teams to grace Carrow Road this season ?

I can't recall Forster having to make one single save in anger, we could have left the field with the score line doubled and it wouldn't have been an injustice,  Holt missed perhaps one of the easiest chances he has had all season, he did the hard part of rounding defenders and keeper alike before shooting wide with the empty goal at his mercy.  Lappin had a couple of terrific shots from out side the area in the second which the visiting keeper did well to save and hold onto respectivly. I took a quick look at the stats; we had a total of 18 shots with 12 of those being on target and 63% of play.  
With family connections in Yeovil I always cast an eye at their reports and follow how they are doing quite closely, but I have  say I was disappointed in them yesterday, clubs of a similar ilk have been to Carrow Road this season and have put up a far better showing, displaying a lot more attacking notions and with a bigger fight in their bellies; on yesterday's showing  I find it hard to believe that they held us for 3-3 draw on their patch. 

Still we were looking to be getting back to our best again passing was crisper and more accurate, movement was far better finishing astill needs a little sharpening (Holty) MacNamee is on fire and at times looks unplayable ; great to have a winger who can cross the ball from both sides of the pitch.  For me yesterday the Man of the Match was Korey Smith he was outstanding, when others looked to be dropping off the pace, he kept going and going; but no-one had a bad game at all.  

With Leeds dropping even more points we strengthened our position at the top of the pile stretching the gap to 7 points and 9 points from third placed Charlton. 
 
Anyone fancy making a prediction at what game we will clinch Promotion ?  See Our Poll on the Left 

Another of Bryan Gunn's signings has had their contract terminated, by mutual consent Australian goalkeeper Michael Theoklitos with immediate effect. Nothing has been mentioned about him for ages after a story where was supposed to have signed for Melbourne, I am surprised he has been kept on the books this long.

The 29-year-old made his one and only full appearance for the Canaries in the disastrous 7-1 home defeat to Colchester United on the opening day of the season before falling down the pecking order behind Fraser Forster, Declan Rudd and Jed Steer. The standard of football between the two Countries must be a wider gulf than many think.   I never saw his one and only appearence thanks to Swine Flu, and I can't say I am sorry to have missed it.

As we suggested  the other day  Read Here   The possibility of this happening;  City are poised to complete the loan capture of striker Stephen Elliott from Preston North End until the end of the season, subject to completion of a medical.



Hope he last longer than the last Preston signing

Sky Sports are claiming that Cody McDonald has signed a contact extension, keeping him with City until 2012. if correct that isa very good move for player and club alike, the lad has done well considering he has been limited by the form of Holt and Martin; he hasn't let anyone down when given a chance.   Nice one Cody MacD 

Ok now don't shoot the messenger just passing on a little rumour that is gathering strength in Lancashire,  according to a Preston North End forum, Striker Stephen Elliot is joing us on loan until the end of the season. 

 Of course this is more than likely a load of spreadable brown stuff, but several PNE fans think it could well be on the cards. he hasn't featured that much for them this season so a loan move may well get him some pitch time, also gives Paul Lambert another option and provide some cover  in this final run in.
