What a win yesterday!!!! My match rating...

Gallacher 6, not much to do to be honest since every Birmingham cross was crossed towards him. Good kicking.

Colin 7, good understanding with Croft in the first half and did a solid job in the second half, but sometimes caught out of position, also the ever dangerous Gary McSheffrey as I expected, did not give many test to him.

Drury 7, some long balls gave straight backed to the Birmingham players but again solid at the back, also good to see him and Hucks before the game outside the players tunnel, good photo with him! Hope his injury wasn't too bad and can come back very soon.

Doherty 8, very solid especially in the air, but still there was too much shirt pulling and on the other day, we may easily conceded the free kick.

Safri 7, used the ball well and did some useful dirty job in the center of midfield, when he switched the ball to the left to Huckerby, it was accurate to Hucks foot or chest, but should have to shoot a bit more.

Etuhu 7, better performance compared with the QPR game, put his foot in for tackle and try to make the run on the left, also, need to shoot more.

Robinson 4, disappointed to say the least, 9 out of 10 balls were given to the Birmingham's player, oh no!!!

Croft 7, hard working and always want to run at defender, just need to have more understanding with Earnie.

Earnshaw 7, work hard for being a lone striker, was not given any space in the first half but in the second half, he was suddenly always found himself one on one with either Jaidi or N'Gotty! Some of the shots were miss kick I think.

Huckerby 9, draw the foul and his free kick made our goal again, how can the board did not offer him a contract? When he got the ball the whole Birmingham defence was hitting the panic button! SIGN HIM UP!

Shackell 9, my Man of the Match again. The only mistake Shacks had made was in about 40 minutes, a miss kick outside our 'D' but their player shoot wide; other time, he was just outstanding at the back! Did some great cover job for Drury and kept last season Championship top scorer Jerome very quiet, also scored the winning goal, ah, right? ;-)

XXL16 10, five years wait was worthy, finally he saw a Norwich City away win! Come on!!! ;-)
