In a game where both sides need points for contrasting reasons at both ends of the Sky Bet Championship table, City travel to St. Andrew?s Stadium for their final game of the regular season against relegation-threatened Birmingham City. And...

Over the coming weeks and months, many questions will be asked of Norwich City on social media and in the many media outlets. Barring the Norfolk Group investing mega bucks into refinancing all outstanding debts, City might – as rumours...

It?s been three years since Uriah Djedje walked through the Lotus Training Centre doors for the first time. Since that day, the midfielder?s stock has continued to rise. He arrived at the club aged 15 and started his Norwich City career in...

Rarely has there been a time of such uncertainty for City supporters, and I don’t talk just of the will we/won’t we make it into the playoffs. (I think we will ? just). But while the focus for the next few days and (hopefully) weeks will...

It doesn?t get more convincing than that! Despite missing out on promotion to league champions AFC Wimbledon, Norwich women are laser-focused on finishing this season on a high and are now only one game away from completing a historic...

City have all but secured a playoff spot. Okay, it isn?t mathematically guaranteed yet but it is hard to imagine a scenario where Norwich don?t finish the job at Birmingham. A three-point lead on seventh-placed Hull is all-importantly...

Even Norwich City couldn’t screw it up from here. Could they" That said, multi-goal swings do occur on the final day. Just ask Nottingham Forest or Bristol Rovers. And, of course, none of us can ever forget Craven Cottage in May 2005 as...

Usually the last regular home game of the season has something of a carnival atmosphere. Bright sunshine, everyone out in short sleeves and, usually, little to play for. Contrast that to a chilly Carrow Road and the promise of all but...

It?s been a difficult time for the academy but the recent performance levels of the U18s team have been refreshing. And over the last few days, they have enjoyed a brief spell of success – beating both Tottenham (2-0) and West Brom (3-0)....

Luke Williams? Swansea City make the long journey to Carrow Road tomorrow as David Wagner?s side welcome the Swans for their final home game of the regular season. A win for the Canaries guarantees them a spot in the play-offs.  Norwich...

It has to have been one of the most prolonged ?takeovers? in the history of football. Except it wasn’t even a takeover. It was merely the approval of a share issue ? one that gives Mark Attanasio and his Norfolk Group parity of ownership with...

The Wagner debate roars on among the City fanbase. After an appalling mid-season run, the German has seemingly turned his and his side’s fortunes around, propelling them ahead of the chasing pack and needing three more points to secure one of...

It’s a conundrum. As it stands both scenarios are eminently possible. It’s looking increasingly likely that we will be in the playoffs, but from there, who knows" The scuttlebutt from ‘sources’ is that the club is £90m in the...

It was never going to be the stroll some were expecting. Having written the match preview and, in doing so, having done some light digging into what makes this iteration of the Robins tick, it became clear they were lively, well-organised,...

Bugger. That wasn’t supposed to happen. Especially when armed with a comfortable 2-0 lead and a level of control that should have deemed it game over. But if there’s one thing we’re good at on the road, it’s conjuring up new...

And then there were three. Games left that is. Unless we make it to the playoffs, and then there will be five? or even six. You know what I mean. But, as we?ve learned from bitter experience, it?s deadly to count your chickens in this game,...

So lads, top that then! With the final whistle celebrations still booming in their ears from Saturday, the players have the unenviable task of trying to reinvigorate themselves physically and mentally for that most confusing of appointments,...

As I mentioned in the comments of Gary’s article on Sunday, the mind-game season is now in full swing. It would surprise no one if, between now and Saturday’s game with Bristol City, both camps bemoan injuries, suspensions, and a raft of other...

If only there were a Championship table based on a team’s ability to wind up opposition managers. If so, we wouldn’t be stressing about whether or not we can claim a playoff place. We’d be prime Leicester City in early January....

It was a bitterly disappointing defeat at home to Southampton for the U21s last Friday. It meant they have won just once since the turn of the year. This result has dented the Canaries’ playoff qualification hopes, as they now sit in 18th place...

It?s only right to start with those three little words: I was wrong. November?s abject 3-1 defeat to the ten men of Blackburn at Carrow Road was a personal tipping point. Wagner had to go. My issues with the club were (and...

It?s been tough for the academy throughout the second half of the season, with the U18s and U21s teams both experiencing difficulties. With a rebuild needed on the pitch, one will also now be required behind the scenes after the head of academy...

Although the wheels of City’s women?s team keep churning, the title will almost certainly be heading to South London. In a pretty unique situation, an unbeaten league campaign won?t be good enough for the Canaries to automatically make the...

Squeaky bum time. We?re down to the stage where each game changes the picture. On Tuesday, City missed a gilt-edged opportunity to put breathing space between us and other challengers for a playoff spot. But Coventry?s loss eased the...

As interminably annoying as international breaks are, they do at least offer the time and space to take stock of where we are, how we got there, and what the possibilities are going forward. Handy really when you have Norwich City-related web...

Following on from yesterday’s 2013 retro column, here’s Ed’s follow-up piece in which he gave us his, let’s call it, ‘Disappointing’ City XI’… *(The piece has been 2024-proofed where possible, but please bear in mind it was...

Since the start of the new year, the U18s have picked up seven points from seven games in the league – a vast improvement compared to the first half of the season where they managed just one win. Their two wins in January and February came...

It’s going to be a long fortnight. Mid-season international breaks are veritable nightmares for editors of football websites that stick to the domestic scene. Even more so when there is no imminent transfer window. So, to an old friend...

Okay, so technically Preston, Boro, and Cardiff are still in with a shout of claiming that final promotion spot, but to have included them would have ruined what I quietly thought was a corny but inspired title. So, sorry Boro, PNE and...

To fully grasp the scale of this revival, it’s worth revisiting what was effectively its starting point. If you’re feeling brave, transport yourself back to around 2:00 pm on Sunday, November 5. No fireworks. Only damp squibs. We...

Here we go. Assuming City can maintain their performance levels at home, our end-of-season fate will come down to whether we improve them on the road. For half an hour at Middlesbrough, the answer seemed to be a clear yes. Then ? well,...

The U21s conjured up a fantastic 2-0 away win against Leeds in PL2 last Friday, rising to 14th in the table – three points clear of the last qualification place. Not only was it a massive result from a league-standing perspective, but it...

The dreaded run-in. We have been here before. Many times. Promotion battles are something the Canary faithful have become accustomed to. The final throes of season 2023-24 loom.  City have nine games left to cement a playoff place....

A new era for the women?s team has officially begun. Fans attending The Nest on Sunday didn?t know what to expect after the club parted company with head coach Martin Herdman a few weeks ago. Would they stick to his principles, which have...

Well, those last seven days in NCFC world were eventful, to say the least? A capitulation in the North-East after one of the most ludicrous red card decisions ever made by an EFL official, leading to yet another away loss – City?s ninth out...

For City fans, those 75 minutes between 2:30 and 3:45 yesterday will take some beating. At least for a week or two. At 2:30, I joined the queue in the River End concourse to purchase refreshment. The big TV screen above me, it read, ‘CAR 0,...

An eventful week in City circles ended with the good news that the red card for Borja Sainz had rightfully been overturned and confirmed that, in the opinion of the FA, Jonny Howson feigned his reaction to get a player sent off.  His previous warm...

I have followed football on all levels for more years than I care to think about and have watched the game change as the decades have passed. I have served as a club president of a State League level club in Australia and before that a...

Rotherham United. There can be no bigger ?gimme? in Championship terms than to be playing at home having won your last five home league matches on the spin, and playing against a team that has lost their last eight consecutive matches and are...

For 30 minutes it was all going so well. David Wagner described it afterwards as “one of our best away performances this season” and for that half-an-hour he was right. Ashley Barnes’ scruffy but effective finish was more than City...

The U21s have had a successful season from an attacking perspective, scoring 36 goals in the league, which makes them the sixth-highest scorers. One player who has contributed massively in that regard is Norfolk-born, Joe Duffy.  Across the...

Rewind the clock to 4th March 2023, and City had just won 3-2 away at Millwall, sneaking into sixth spot in the Championship table for the first time in a while. At the time it felt like a pivotal moment. City seemed to be heading in the...

After beating Boro on that never-to-be-forgotten afternoon in May 2015, City went on to win their next five contests against them, including that memorable 1-0 Carrow Road win in September 2018 that kickstarted Daniel Farke?s first...

Kenny McLean became the latest staff member to bite back ? very mildly ? against frustrated supporters as City eventually got the better of Sunderland on Saturday. On a sodden pitch, another sodding draw was looking probable. But then McLean...

It will be one of the eternal mysteries, not just of my life, but of existence, as to why Saturday?s awful game against Sunderland should have decided me to renew my season ticket after all. I woke up on Sunday morning and felt fully...
