The Pukki effect, weak opposition, Preston support and a top keeper

April 6th, 2019

I have no worries about Teemu Pukki’s dry run and rather than concern myself with that, I’d rather celebrate the season both he produced which the fans have thoroughly enjoyed, he has been truly taken to their hearts of Norfolk.

During this blank run he has continued to chip in with assists but m...

Pukki party, Chris Wilder, Godfrey’s future and wobbling Boro

March 29th, 2019

For me Teemu Pukki is a ‘shoe in’ for the EFL Player of the Year. He is up against superb competition with the other two nominations namely Che Adams of Birmingham and Billy Sharp of Sheffield United. Billy Sharp has just reached the milestone of scoring the most goals in Championship history, howev...

The end of the story

March 26th, 2019

The story so far: Ilford; Swindon; "Bly, Bly, Babes", "Ta Ta Taffees"; Tottenham toppled; Blades blunted; Norwich City of the Third Division were in the semi-final of the FA Cup.

Some extracts from the diary of John (aged 7½)

We drew 1-1 again. Bobby Brennan got an eq...

The new Maradona, ‘Farkeball’, the race for second and Miller time

March 15th, 2019

Emi Buendia has been putting in some man of the match performances in recent weeks in terms of both work rate, scoring and assisting goals. The diminutive midfielder at first glance when joining City looked like a flair player who might get easily knocked off the ball and might possibly disappear in...

Title chase, blips, strength in depth and the run in

March 8th, 2019

Norwich City sit proudly at the top of the Championship table two points ahead of Leeds United, four in front of the Blades and having created a whooping nine point gap against the early season much fancied and star-studded Baggies. If another three can be achieved after Friday's visit of Swansea, l...

Staying power, King Kenny, Psychology and the Lion's thorn

March 1st, 2019

Norwich indeed blew Bristol City off the park in the second half and to be fair have against most sides including the blip away at Preston and whilst losing created 22 chances which would normally complete a winning outcome.

Going back to Daniel Farke's arrival, German methods of training were in...

1959: Tottenham

February 26th, 2019

The story so far. Ilford, Swindon, "Bly, Bly, Babes", "Ta, Ta, Taffees" and on to...

Saturday 14th February 1959

We drew 1-1 at Tottenham so there’s going to be a replay on Wednesday evening and Dad said we can try and get tickets. Mr Smith who lives at number 40 is going to take us down the...

Form teams, weaknesses and who starts?

February 23rd, 2019

Today is another 'massive' game at Carrow Road. A big if, but if Bristol City were to win and also come out on top with their two games in hand, they would find themselves only one point behind the Canaries. With points in the bag, it is a four team chase although the Robins and Middlesbrough can no...

Belief and sinking ships

February 9th, 2019

Belief has skyrocketed following the Elland Road victory. A tough batch of games has seen Norwich City draw with chasers Sheffield Utd, West Brom whilst dispatching Leeds United with arguably the best performance of the season.

What made the 3-1 victory even sweeter was the professional manner in...

1959: Manchester United

January 24th, 2019

The story so far. Having made their way past non-league Ilford and fellow Division Three southers, Swindon Town, the Canaries were faced with the thrilling/frightening prospect of facing the might of Manchester United at Carrow Road on the second Saturday in January 1959.

One seven-year old su...

West Brom, Jordan Rhodes future and team changes

January 18th, 2019

A solid point away at West Brom was my judgement from last Saturday whilst of course I am now desperate to see another City victory.

It's now four games since Norwich City won in the league which is a bit concerning. Having said that most City fans would have taken a point before the start of the...

Christmas, the cup, injuries and who's up next?

January 11th, 2019

Up until Christmas, Norwich City had produced nine wins, two draws and only one defeat with the loss being an extremely unfortunate League Cup away defeat to Bournemouth.

From Boxing Day the return has been only two draws and two defeats, the loss arguably resultant from our first piece of bad l...
