Lewis Grabban: 'Norwich City are promotion contenders'

Norwich City striker Lewis Grabban believes that the team's 4-0 win over Watford makes them one of the "main contenders" for promotion to the Premier League.

Lewis Grabban has said that Norwich City will be considered one of the "main contenders" for promotion from the Championship following their win over Watford.

The 3-0 victory at Vicarage Road lifted the Canaries up to fifth in the table, just six points off the automatic promotion places.

The striker, who scored twice in the win, told the club's official website: "It's the most important result, definitely. It keeps us within touching distance of the top, so it's a positive.

"I don't really know what other teams are thinking, but I suppose people will look at us as one of the main contenders.

"Automatic [promotion] is within touching distance of the top eight, and hopefully we won't disappoint anyone when it comes to the end of the season. It's up to the team who really wants it most to try and grab it."

Norwich have now won four matches in a row in the league under new manager Alex Neil.
