    But first, let's catch up on last night.

    This picture probably sums up the mood of Norwich fans right now.

    On Friday the Canaries had the opportunity to go fourth in the Championship against promotion rivals Huddersfield at Carrow Road.

    But two goals from Elias Kachunga helped give the Terriers a victory which lifted them up to third in the table and left Norwich boss Alex Neil scratching his head after seven losses from nine league games.
