:00:27. > :00:35.weekend but at least posh added a speaks candidly about having to quit

:00:36. > :00:41.the game through injury. I'd give everything to play. You can't. Take

:00:41. > :00:46.a break. Ipswich town legends meet up for a glass of wine. It's great

:00:46. > :00:52.to see players from all different areas meet up, talk, have a laugh.

:00:52. > :00:57.Make or break. After one win in 16, Norwich City need to turn the forum

:00:57. > :01:01.-- need to turn their form around. Good to have you with us. After

:01:01. > :01:04.another weekend of crunch matches, most of our team still can't say

:01:04. > :01:08.with any certainty which division they will be in next season but

:01:08. > :01:12.plenty of talking points for our guests. Delighted to welcome

:01:12. > :01:22.alongside Perry Groves Darren Eadie. Great to have you on. We've got a

:01:22. > :01:23.

:01:23. > :01:28.goal to celebrate you coming onto Darren Eadie! What a magnificent

:01:28. > :01:34.goal! What a strike, great memories. That was my first game

:01:34. > :01:40.back after an love injury. couldn't find one of you, Perry. Not

:01:41. > :01:45.even from a still? Not even. It is one of the most painful decisions to

:01:45. > :01:50.make, when you have to retire from injury. About 50 players are forced

:01:50. > :01:55.into this decision every season. Dave Hibbert suffered an horrific

:01:55. > :01:58.knee injury and he announced his retirement this week. He has been

:01:58. > :02:03.talking to us about his emotional turmoil about realising his game was

:02:03. > :02:07.over. It is the best job in the world and

:02:07. > :02:13.until you come out of it and take a backseat, you don't understand how

:02:13. > :02:16.privileged you are to be a footballer. I had a great season and

:02:16. > :02:21.shrews agree, top scorer, play of the year, everything was going

:02:21. > :02:31.great. There was a few clubs interested, I ended up in

:02:31. > :02:41.

:02:41. > :02:47.Peterborough, which was brilliant. since coming on as substitute!

:02:47. > :02:52.Take us back to that FA Cup match when life changed for good.

:02:52. > :02:58.remember it like it was yesterday. It was a freezing cold night, the

:02:58. > :03:04.picture was quite hard. My body went one way, my legs stayed planted in

:03:04. > :03:08.the ground. I'd tore my Achilles, I was told I would be back in three

:03:08. > :03:15.months. I thought it wasn't ideal but get on with it and get back for

:03:15. > :03:20.a good running. I was listening on the radio, which was worse. I

:03:20. > :03:24.remember my other football friends, they brought him home on crutches.

:03:24. > :03:28.Our daughter was only a few months old. It was very hard. On average,

:03:28. > :03:34.50 players are forced to quit the game through injury every season.

:03:34. > :03:38.Peterborough striker Dave Hibbert is football 's latest medical

:03:38. > :03:42.casualty. It was a real struggle, I am not going to live. It was really

:03:42. > :03:48.tough, mentally more than anything, because it was a lot of work on my

:03:48. > :03:52.own. It is motivating yourself every day, training alone, getting through

:03:52. > :03:57.this programme, and getting yourself in the best possible shape you could

:03:57. > :04:03.be in. And that is how you keep going. You hope you are going to

:04:03. > :04:10.have the opportunity again. How did you vent your frustrations? Probably

:04:10. > :04:14.my partner took a lot of that. And the ones closest to you, they suffer

:04:14. > :04:20.the most because you are not yourself. You not how you want to

:04:20. > :04:28.be. You are angry, you are frustrated. You can't do what you

:04:28. > :04:35.want to do. Yes, I guess they take the brunt of it. There was quite a

:04:35. > :04:40.few moods, things like that, but, yes, so, hard for her as well. We've

:04:40. > :04:45.spent a lot of time apart, I moved back here to be with my family and

:04:45. > :04:54.Dave was in Peterborough, not as difficult for Ella as well. When was

:04:54. > :04:58.the lowest moment? The lowest moment? I would probably say after

:04:58. > :05:05.my first operation. I sat on a machine for eight hours a day, just

:05:05. > :05:10.watching my knee go like that the six weeks. And that was mindnumbing,

:05:10. > :05:13.honestly. I nearly lost the plot. For nearly two years, they've

:05:13. > :05:17.refused to accept defeat. He worked tirelessly with the

:05:17. > :05:23.physiotherapists, he travelled to London and America twice the

:05:23. > :05:27.specialist treatment. But the reality finally took hold. I

:05:27. > :05:32.remember his face, and his eyes in the office. We had had the

:05:32. > :05:38.instruction -- discussion what if. I said I was struggling. This day when

:05:38. > :05:43.he came to me, I knew he decided. He just said, I have had enough. I

:05:43. > :05:52.spoke with my close family, my dad, my mum. Without them, I would never

:05:52. > :05:56.have got to where I have got to. I made the decision. I made it at home

:05:56. > :06:01.after consulting them. I took time on my own, switched my phone off.

:06:01. > :06:09.And I thought that is it. It's the decision which no footballer wants

:06:09. > :06:14.to make. Absolutely not. It winds me up when you see the likes of Arshad

:06:14. > :06:21.in saying he is becoming disillusioned with football. When

:06:21. > :06:26.you want to play and you can't... Things like that make me angry.

:06:26. > :06:30.this game getting more demanding now, more physically demanding?

:06:30. > :06:35.Definitely. There are athletes. It is a lot of demand on the players

:06:35. > :06:39.now. Their game is a lot quicker. The lads are a lot more powerful.

:06:39. > :06:43.And when they are running at top speed, when they are twisting and

:06:43. > :06:48.turning, going into tackles, they are strong athletes now. That is why

:06:48. > :06:51.you are seeing a few more injuries. You are not the first, you will not

:06:51. > :06:59.be the last to go through this level of anguish. What is the message to

:06:59. > :07:02.those who are living the dream now unaware of what might happen?

:07:02. > :07:08.not going to lie. It's been horrendous. It's been tough to do

:07:08. > :07:12.that, have that done at 26 when you've done everything you've wanted

:07:12. > :07:18.to achieve at football, you accepted. But I still had goals and

:07:18. > :07:22.I wanted to do things. But you've got to get on with it. There is no

:07:22. > :07:26.point moping about feeling sorry for yourself. That's reality. That's

:07:26. > :07:32.what you've got and you've got to get on with it. There is a lot of

:07:32. > :07:35.people worse off than me. The thing I want to get across to people is in

:07:35. > :07:40.football you take it for granted when you are there. It is the best

:07:40. > :07:50.thing in the world. The lads in their now have got to enjoy every

:07:50. > :07:54.single moment because it doesn't last forever.

:07:54. > :07:57.Dave Hibbert speaks honestly and eloquently about his troubles with

:07:57. > :08:04.injury. You've both suffered with injury throughout your careers and

:08:04. > :08:08.both had to retire early. How difficult is it to accept? Hugely.

:08:08. > :08:14.It makes me feel quite emotional. It is a carbon copy of what I went

:08:14. > :08:17.through. I finished at 28. I spent eight hours a day on that machine

:08:17. > :08:22.and psychologically it is tough, really tough, because you think you

:08:22. > :08:27.are going to get back from it. He's got a great family unit around him

:08:27. > :08:33.which makes such a difference. There is help out there for him. The PFA

:08:33. > :08:39.are there for him. You are a member of it. You are a member for life.

:08:39. > :08:44.Come to me if they are not helping him. We have got a retreat set up to

:08:44. > :08:49.help all sports set up to help people deal with injury and help

:08:49. > :08:54.cope with that and the fact you might not get that at all. And also

:08:54. > :08:58.to help the family deal with it. Just injury? The mental side as

:08:58. > :09:01.well. The transition of getting out of football, it is a huge problem.

:09:01. > :09:09.It is like coming out of the Army. It is a difficult transition to

:09:09. > :09:13.make. Once it is taking away from you, it is difficult. Perry, you've

:09:13. > :09:18.been there. What is it like when you are told that as it? You think you

:09:18. > :09:25.are indestructible. I got injured 28, packed it in at 30. What you've

:09:25. > :09:30.got to do it mentally, you are in a privileged position, but he's got to

:09:30. > :09:34.think about the eight years he has had. I thought I was very lucky to

:09:34. > :09:38.be a professional for 14 years and not worry what I would have done.

:09:38. > :09:43.You achieved a lot of things. Dave says he hasn't achieved what he

:09:43. > :09:48.would like to have achieved. He's got a lot of things in his head. You

:09:48. > :09:53.feel better. I didn't go and see game's four-year is. I didn't want

:09:54. > :09:58.to do it. I didn't want to see my mates play football. You all going

:09:58. > :10:04.through all sorts. He's got a good family base behind him, which is

:10:04. > :10:07.important. Financially, if you are not insured, what is next? There is

:10:07. > :10:13.one thing the PFA should implement, especially for players in League Two

:10:13. > :10:18.and leak one. Get them to contribute to an insurance fund where you pay

:10:18. > :10:21.�1000 a year where you can get yourself �60,000 worth of insurance

:10:21. > :10:24.so when you pack it in, you have a safety net because a lot of players

:10:24. > :10:29.have got low income coming in so it allows them to maybe two different

:10:29. > :10:36.courses, have a different trial on their life, whereas you don't think

:10:36. > :10:42.of anything past your football career, and, you know... Dave is

:10:42. > :10:47.intelligent, he speaks very well, but losing football is a huge blow.

:10:47. > :10:50.We sent him the best wishes. He would have been cheered by his mates

:10:50. > :10:58.performance yesterday. The great escape continues at Peterborough.

:10:58. > :11:05.Fantastic result. Dwight Gayle was on fire. He sets once in a way. He

:11:05. > :11:08.puts Peterboro 1-0 up. Nine unbeaten, fantastic. They lost 16

:11:08. > :11:12.out of the first 21 in the championship. Their second 21,

:11:12. > :11:20.they've only lost for Mac. Everyone thought they were relegation

:11:21. > :11:23.candidates. But what has changed? We talked about the goalscoring. You

:11:23. > :11:29.get a goalscorer scoring on a regular basis, can do anything to

:11:29. > :11:35.the team. Dwight Gayle. He is hungry, he's got praise. Cassetti

:11:35. > :11:43.brings him down. He waits for him to bring him down. Lee Tomlin, he's got

:11:43. > :11:47.a fantastic free kick. They have taken 17 points from their nine

:11:47. > :11:52.games. They've put it back in their own hands. It is testament to Darren

:11:52. > :11:57.Ferguson. They did the best to let Watford back into it and Darren

:11:57. > :12:06.Ferguson was upset by it. Looking at these goals, they were deflections,

:12:06. > :12:11.so they haven't given them away cheaply. They've got a good record

:12:11. > :12:14.against the top sides against the division. They play Brighton next.

:12:14. > :12:19.Right click openly. The reason Darren Ferguson was upset is it

:12:19. > :12:29.might come down to goal difference. And those two goals conceded, they

:12:29. > :12:32.don't count. You don't want to go down on goal difference. Peterboro,

:12:32. > :12:38.a club with talent but limited resources. Ipswich, however, a

:12:38. > :12:45.different story owned by a multimillionaire with this history.

:12:45. > :12:55.Why can't the players of today match to those of yesteryear? We went to a

:12:55. > :13:00.

:13:00. > :13:04.Ing a we are ready for the Hall of fame dinner and I will be

:13:05. > :13:08.interviewing a few players. It was a new thing whether the wall of

:13:08. > :13:10.fame and I was privileged to be one of the first in it. It is great

:13:10. > :13:19.coming every year and seeing all the new players and their delight

:13:19. > :13:25.when they get picked. When you see the old boy is, all the lads from

:13:25. > :13:33.my kids right through to the guys you played every week. It is

:13:33. > :13:38.fabulous. Fantastic times. We had a magnificent team. Thinking back as

:13:38. > :13:43.a manager it was amazing. It is great to see players of all

:13:43. > :13:48.different eras and make-up and talk and have a laugh. Football becomes

:13:48. > :13:51.secondary, it becomes about camaraderie and Ipswich Town.

:13:51. > :13:58.heart is in the club and you have been brought up in the town and it

:13:58. > :14:01.is always good to come back to Ipswich. We have had so many of

:14:01. > :14:09.these players but look who I have just bumped into, I think you

:14:09. > :14:14.should be doing this job! You a better than me! I am at Portman

:14:14. > :14:19.Road, ready for the game against Hull City. Reflecting against last

:14:19. > :14:24.night's Hall of fame. Alan Brazil, Brian Talbot and Alan Stockwell

:14:24. > :14:30.were all inducted. He was a great player and he deserves to be in it.

:14:30. > :14:35.Alan Brazil, he got a bit emotional last night and that was the first

:14:35. > :14:40.time I have ever seen that. He was a fantastic footballer, a great

:14:40. > :14:44.finisher. Micky Stockwell, I cannot believe the number of games he has

:14:44. > :14:48.played. He was always consistent. He was a good ride back and he

:14:48. > :14:53.deserved it. The three of them deserve to be in the Hall of fame.

:14:53. > :14:57.I am so happy this morning. It is easy to say that you are humbled

:14:57. > :15:01.and all of that but to be voted in by such great people and players,

:15:01. > :15:06.and be a part of that is just fantastic. I am so proud this

:15:06. > :15:10.morning. We had a fantastic night, but back to today, we have Hull

:15:10. > :15:17.City who are a team that are very good. They have been in the top

:15:17. > :15:22.three or four all season and we are expecting a tough game here today.

:15:22. > :15:27.He goes down inside the box. The referee has said penalty. Ipswich

:15:27. > :15:34.Town going for a club record, six consecutive team sheets, he rolled

:15:34. > :15:40.it into the net and there will be no club record. Hull City lead 1-0.

:15:40. > :15:45.Not too far. Chambers kicked it back. Anthony Wedgwood, the

:15:45. > :15:50.substitute! His first goal for Ipswich Town after a two-month

:15:50. > :15:57.injury lay-off. What a massive goal that might be. Mick McCarthy's team

:15:58. > :16:03.are right back in this game. It is Ipswich Town, one, Hull City, one.

:16:03. > :16:06.It is headed into the net by the substitute. It is Robert Koren.

:16:06. > :16:11.They were excellent in the first half but I thought we were better

:16:11. > :16:16.than them in the second. I have no idea what it is going to take to

:16:16. > :16:19.stay up. All in all an excellent weekend. We have the Hall of fame

:16:19. > :16:21.celebrations at but we did not get what the result but we wanted but

:16:21. > :16:26.onwards and upwards for the football club.

:16:26. > :16:30.He is far too good at that job! You are too good at it. Not the best

:16:30. > :16:34.result for Ipswich at the weekend against Hull but they should be

:16:34. > :16:39.saved in the championship. I think they need one more win. Mick will

:16:39. > :16:43.be disappointed with the defending. Wadworth and Cresswell did the

:16:43. > :16:47.close the ball down. They haven't conceded for five games on the trot

:16:47. > :16:50.so he will be disappointed. They have been great down the back.

:16:50. > :16:55.First goal in eight games they have conceded but scoring goals has been

:16:55. > :16:58.an issue for them. When you come in to a club that is struggling the

:16:58. > :17:02.first thing you should do sure the back-up. That is what Mick McCarthy

:17:02. > :17:05.has done and sit it is a great queue to get him there. Within a

:17:05. > :17:11.couple of years I am sure they will be back in the Premier League.

:17:11. > :17:14.was a great crowd as well. Micky Stockwell, Brian Talbot, Alan

:17:14. > :17:18.Brazil be inducted, that was fantastic. When the old players get

:17:18. > :17:22.together they rarely talk about the games they played, it was about

:17:22. > :17:26.what went on off the pitch so it is good to get back and just what the

:17:26. > :17:30.stories. Let us look at the table and see where Ipswich are. 17th

:17:30. > :17:33.position, four points off. Goal- difference is comparable to those

:17:33. > :17:37.difference is comparable to those at the bottom, Barnsley are in the

:17:37. > :17:41.relegation zone. Peterborough are out of it after the weekend games

:17:41. > :17:45.as well so are we saying that both of them will stay up? For you have

:17:45. > :17:51.to look at recent form. In the case of other teams they might have a

:17:51. > :17:56.bad run. Ipswich are on a decent run so they should be fine. We have

:17:56. > :18:01.the fixtures on Tuesday as well. They have got a good record against

:18:01. > :18:04.the big sides so hopefully that will continue. Ipswich and Posh

:18:04. > :18:08.have been fighting the threat of relegation all season but for

:18:08. > :18:11.Norwich City it has crept up on the more recently. Later in the

:18:11. > :18:15.programme we will discuss their slide towards danger and who is

:18:15. > :18:17.going to fire them to Premier going to fire them to Premier

:18:17. > :18:19.League safety? We have got the League safety? We have got the

:18:19. > :18:22.views of Darren and Perry on that coming up but first we will see the

:18:22. > :18:26.action from League One and we will stop with the MK Dons who looked

:18:26. > :18:30.like they would get into the play- offs. There was a great win against

:18:30. > :18:33.Swindon but they fell apart against Leyton Orient. I think Karl

:18:33. > :18:36.Robinson was disappointed because it was one of their worst

:18:36. > :18:41.performances for a while. He said they should have been confident.

:18:41. > :18:44.Leyton Orient were in decent form. Colchester haven't been there

:18:44. > :18:50.recently. He thought the players were a little bit flat. Williams

:18:50. > :18:53.had some decent efforts on goal but that was about it. For yes, Karl

:18:53. > :18:57.Robinson so they deserve to get beat and they were very poor. It

:18:57. > :19:02.was one of those games. They tend to come along at this time of the

:19:02. > :19:05.season and play get a bit nervy. You don't want to get in the play-

:19:05. > :19:12.offs. It is disappointing to see themselves at the 10th in the table

:19:12. > :19:16.at the moment. They are still good enough but they need him out about

:19:16. > :19:21.goalscorer. That is his 16th goal of the season. He is the sort of

:19:21. > :19:28.player that they need. To get yourself in the top six you need a

:19:28. > :19:32.20 goals season. Let us see where the MK Dons are. If they had beaten

:19:32. > :19:35.Leyton Orient they would be a point outside Swindon. They are four

:19:35. > :19:39.points off with three games to go, is there any chance they can sneak

:19:39. > :19:44.into the top six? Their next game against Colchester is huge. If they

:19:44. > :19:49.win their game in hand they go on 67 points and Walsall and Leyton

:19:50. > :19:54.Orient were also fancy getting there so that will be a massive

:19:54. > :19:59.game. They have injuries as well. Yes they miss him. There will be a

:19:59. > :20:05.lot of clubs sniffing around that player. Let us look at the bottom

:20:05. > :20:10.of League One. A disappointing result here. Jeff Hughes just

:20:10. > :20:18.slides in at the far post. The defending was a particularly good.

:20:18. > :20:22.It was a really good team gold from Andy Bond. There was laid -- there

:20:22. > :20:25.was good link-up play. He crosses it and he kept them back in it are

:20:25. > :20:31.one or cry from one. The pitch in been many favours so the manager

:20:31. > :20:35.told them to force it home but they will be very disappointed with the

:20:35. > :20:43.defending. There was a strong header. They should have marked a

:20:43. > :20:47.bit better. It is sloppy defending more than anything. Colchester are

:20:47. > :20:52.a big team and they are conceding from crosses and set-pieces which

:20:52. > :20:55.is unusual for them. Steve image have to clean sheets and a Graham

:20:55. > :20:59.Westley and they did not play particularly well at the weekend

:20:59. > :21:04.and Graham Westley said that himself. They ended up losing a 2-0.

:21:04. > :21:08.This one is a cracker. The great goal from Sam Foley. You would your

:21:08. > :21:14.defenders to close him down a bit better but Stevenage are work-in-

:21:15. > :21:19.progress for Graham Westley. They go 2-0 down and James Hayter makes

:21:19. > :21:22.it 2-0. If you look at both teams, Yeovil are where Stevenage want to

:21:22. > :21:26.be. They are very consistent and they haven't been beaten in four

:21:26. > :21:29.games and that is what Graham Westley will try to do. They are

:21:29. > :21:35.guarantee to be in League One next season. Let us look at the table,

:21:35. > :21:40.they cannot be caught. It is very much a rebuilding job, isn't it?

:21:40. > :21:42.has been an amazing rise in recent years. To get into League One and

:21:42. > :21:46.establish themselves in there for a couple of seasons it is not like

:21:46. > :21:51.they are doing poorly, they are establishing themselves and they

:21:51. > :21:55.have done fabulously. Colchester is a massive game. They have got two

:21:55. > :21:58.home games and they have Shrewsbury coming up with one point in front

:21:58. > :22:03.of them so if they can get one win out of those two then they will be

:22:03. > :22:06.doing well. Northampton's slum continues. A fortnight ago they

:22:06. > :22:15.look like a sure bet for automatic promotion and narrative that of

:22:15. > :22:19.their hands. After three defeats and the latest to York it is a real

:22:19. > :22:24.problem. It cost me about �750 because they were the team that

:22:25. > :22:28.never let me down! They should have been a banker. I went there and let

:22:28. > :22:32.them physically. Ashley Chambers scored between Nicholls's lakes

:22:32. > :22:38.there and it was like a war of attrition. They had a few chances

:22:38. > :22:45.but they were not at their attrition best. They did create a

:22:45. > :22:49.few chances but they have such a run a home. They had been brilliant.

:22:50. > :22:53.They have had their chances in that game but they did not take them.

:22:53. > :22:56.The other teams score the goals are vital moments a matches will be

:22:56. > :23:00.them. The biggest crowd of the season and mental strength will be

:23:00. > :23:04.key for them. It is a shame because it was in their own times to get

:23:04. > :23:08.automatic promotion and now they are fighting. Let us look at the

:23:08. > :23:12.table and see where it is for Northampton. There they are, five

:23:12. > :23:16.points of automatic promotion and they have a game in hand on a

:23:17. > :23:20.Burton. A big fixtures coming up. Do we think they can do it? I think

:23:20. > :23:24.they are all right for the play- offs because they play we come away

:23:24. > :23:28.and Port Vale away and bonnet at home. Hopefully they will have

:23:28. > :23:32.their flip-flops on a. If they are in the play-offs, how will it

:23:32. > :23:36.affect them? If you scrape into the play-offs later on it is always the

:23:36. > :23:39.team that comes from lower down that comes true. If you're

:23:39. > :23:43.expecting automatic promotion it can be a Downer. There is always a

:23:43. > :23:48.threat up front and that is important. That is what you needed

:23:48. > :23:52.in any team. Southend have thought of as well and lost a Cup final at

:23:52. > :23:57.Wembley. It has been a difficult spell for them. I do they may have

:23:57. > :24:03.one for eight games. Phil Brown is going to try and implement the

:24:03. > :24:07.style. That header did created few chances. The Bristol Rovers

:24:07. > :24:10.goalkeeper was in absolutely fantastic Four. Phil Brown will be

:24:10. > :24:14.a habit that they are getting balls into the box but they need to be a

:24:14. > :24:17.bit more clinical in their finishing. He said himself that he

:24:17. > :24:23.made a real mistake taking this guy of, Freddy Eastwood. He said when

:24:23. > :24:27.he took him off the game changed. Freddie had a good shot. He is one

:24:28. > :24:31.of those players that gives you a little spot in and around the box.

:24:31. > :24:34.The car requital game but then he will come in with some of from the

:24:34. > :24:44.top corner. Let us look at the fixtures this way. Southend are

:24:44. > :24:46.

:24:46. > :24:48.travelling to Aldershot Town and a Northampton have a massive game at

:24:48. > :24:51.Wycombe. Southend will be a battle at Aldershot because they are

:24:51. > :24:58.fighting not to get relegated but they must score goals. They have

:24:58. > :25:02.not scored for many games. You need to chip in with a few goals.

:25:02. > :25:06.Fingers crossed. We have often spoken about teams fighting to

:25:06. > :25:10.avoid the drop but until recently Norwich City had avoided mention

:25:10. > :25:14.during relegation talk. Not any more. From mid-October to the start

:25:14. > :25:19.of the Christmas holidays Norwich had gone 10 games unbeaten, winning

:25:19. > :25:24.six of them and drawing for. Since then they have managed just one win

:25:24. > :25:25.in 16, earning 10 points from a possible 48. All the sudden things

:25:25. > :25:30.possible 48. All the sudden things are looking a little bit concerning

:25:30. > :25:37.for Norwich City. I can see a similar pattern of what happened in

:25:37. > :25:40.95 and I was part of that squad. It was just about Christmas where we

:25:40. > :25:45.were doing really well and there we end up getting relegated. It is

:25:45. > :25:48.important to make the players or whereof that. Is important to stay

:25:48. > :25:53.in the financial -- Premier League financially. For that to happen,

:25:54. > :25:57.you get so close, 35 points, it is like playing percentages now. Chris

:25:57. > :26:01.Hughton needs to go into every game with a point but unfortunately they

:26:01. > :26:04.are not going and hanging on to those points. Let us look at when

:26:04. > :26:08.Norwich are. They have slipped down dramatically and they are now only

:26:08. > :26:12.four points off at Wigan but Wigan have two games in hand. The other

:26:12. > :26:17.thing to look at is the goal difference. Goals have been a bit

:26:17. > :26:20.of an issue for them. The it is a huge problem. They are the second

:26:20. > :26:24.lowest goalscorers in the Premier League and that is a answer in

:26:24. > :26:33.itself. They were scoring plenty of goals free-flowing last year but it

:26:33. > :26:38.is all change this year. Those are the top stories. -- scorers. Last

:26:38. > :26:42.season grant Holt had 15 League goals. You look at that and that is

:26:42. > :26:46.a massive relegation form team. You cannot expect them to be where they

:26:46. > :26:49.are. Why isn't run whole doing so well this is an? He has been out of

:26:49. > :26:52.the team a bit which hasn't help but why has not gone so well?

:26:52. > :26:57.have changed the system a bit and it has gone more defensive since

:26:57. > :27:03.that run. The players are not getting forward to make the chances.

:27:03. > :27:08.He needs someone to get the ball in the box. They haven't been given a

:27:08. > :27:11.chance. I am not sure about showing these goals, these were few years

:27:11. > :27:16.ago. What they have to do is at home. They're playing Reading and

:27:16. > :27:26.Wigan and he has to play two up front at home. Whoever it is up

:27:26. > :27:30.front with halt. A why isn't he playing some of these people?

:27:30. > :27:34.have a bit of pace up front and if you have sold one of in your team

:27:34. > :27:38.who is not the best goalscorer though they may score goals and

:27:38. > :27:42.occasions. I just think if they are playing off hold they need someone

:27:42. > :27:46.who will run in behind them and they haven't had that money shots

:27:46. > :27:52.on target in the last few games. Mexes may have a new player coming

:27:52. > :27:56.in who will hopefully make a new difference. He will want to join a

:27:56. > :28:00.Premier League team. I think they might draw their way to safety.

:28:00. > :28:03.They have the three home games coming up and I think there will be

:28:03. > :28:06.quite a change of personnel because this is Paul Lambert's team and

:28:06. > :28:09.they do not play with the same ambition. If you said to Norwich

:28:10. > :28:14.than that this season they would tear -- stay up they would have

:28:14. > :28:19.taken up. Let us look at their fixtures before we go. Wedding at

:28:19. > :28:27.home, Stoker home, Aston Villa away, West Brom at home and Manchester

:28:27. > :28:35.City, we were right that one off. Plenty of people are looking at
