"Hopefully, with a little guidance from me and and a lot of hard work from David, we can see some results." Fri, 03 Jul 2009 01:09:42 GMT http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4752 http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4752 "We have done a lot of groundwork during the summer and, obviously, that was evident when we signed Gill, Jones and Nelson early and now we're hopeful that by the middle of next week that we will have maybe one, two, three, four more faces in place," said the City chief. "And if we can do that then the squad is starting to look solid."

"We have been pleased to work hard with Aviva to help make this partnership a successful one for both them and the club and will continue to do so in the months and years ahead." Wed, 01 Jul 2009 16:34:24 GMT http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4750 http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4750 Neilson now has two weeks to prove that he might be the man for the job as Lilywhites boss Gary Roberts confirmed the player's exit on a trial basis. On contract with the British Gas Business Southern League side, he could - in theory - net the non-league outfit a five-figure transfer fee with the promise of a bigger windfall to come should Neilson grab his chance of a professional career with both hands. Tue, 30 Jun 2009 17:54:13 GMT http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4749 http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4749 "I have spoken to three clubs, two in the Championship and one in League One and hope to firm things up later this week when their managers are back from their holidays," said Gunn's one-time under-study, whose free transfer switch to Ipswich Town always guarantees him a 'warm' reception with the Canary faithful.

"I have played against him when he was at Norwich and he should be a great addition to the squad. "Derby have done really well to get him on a free transfer as I'm sure there were other clubs interested. To get a player of that quality is a big bonus for the club." Fri, 26 Jun 2009 12:39:27 GMT http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4747 http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4747 "We're continuing to look for further investment and although we know it's difficult for people to commit, I'm sure there will be something there - I shall continue to seek support wherever I can," said the Banham Poultry chief, hoping that the worst of the post-relegation blues was now behind the club. Thu, 25 Jun 2009 14:53:30 GMT http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4746 http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4746 "When Leeds came down two years ago, they found their feet straight away and that's the challenge for the three clubs who've been relegated this time," the City striker told the Yorkshire Evening Post tonight. "I know we're going to be under pressure because we're a big fish in this league. The one thing we can't do is be complacent to assume that because we're Norwich we're going to do well." Tue, 23 Jun 2009 21:35:34 GMT http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4744 http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4744 "We have to nurture him the best way we can with his education and training," said the Canary boss, who in one of his many previous guises at the club was Rudd's goalkeeping coach. "Whether that's Darran Lovell in the Academy or previously James Hollman, Tommy Wright, myself and more recently Tommy Wright - [we] all say he has a great opportunity to go right to the top.

"But we have had a lot of interest in Sammy and one or two other players. We'll have to see what is the best thing for Norwich City and take it from there." Mon, 22 Jun 2009 14:46:36 GMT http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4742 http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4742 For some, of course, there is this sense that Norwich are moving away from their 'traditions'; that, by obvious implication, if you slam a six-foot four-inch forward of a Liam Dickinson ilk at the tip of your team, so the ball will follow - it'll be slammed high, long and direct towards Dickinson's head with little or no thought for the demands of the paying punter.

Well that's the view of Future Radio presenter and lifelong City fan, TOBY NEWTON. Fri, 19 Jun 2009 20:16:08 GMT http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4740 http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4740 "If we loan him out, we might want to put him into League One, where we think he will score a lot of goals and his value will go up," said Pearson, claiming that a deal for Croft was also as good as done. "Would he be part of the plans here? It's doubtful, because he would be fifth or sixth choice striker and that is no good for Liam at the moment." Fri, 19 Jun 2009 16:40:03 GMT http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4739 http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4739 "We play all three of the sides promoted from League Two at the start and that will be a good challenge," said Bryan Gunn today. "You would expect those sides to be buoyant coming off the back of successful seasons." TOM HAYLETT reports.

"The club's obviously been having a couple of rough years and it is time now to get back to the drawing board, start again and try to get the club climbing back up again." Wed, 17 Jun 2009 00:02:55 GMT http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4736 http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4736 "When you analyse what he does with the ball, you can't help but be impressed," said the Welsh Under-21 boss, speaking before injury struck. "He has the attributes you need for a modern-day midfield player, he can play a holding role, or can get forward and score goals. Supplement his talent with the self-belief he has, and Owain has got to have a huge future... Already, he's a 20-year-old with the maturity of a 25-year-old. Just imagine how good he could be five years down the line?" Tue, 16 Jun 2009 09:54:21 GMT http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4735 http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4735 "There's been a lot of deep disappointment, but I'm that kind of person - I can't help it - I always think: 'Come on, there's a new challenge here!' said the new Commander of the British Empire. "Let's get back to the drawing board, let's roll our sleeves up and start again. And now, at this moment in time, I'm looking forward to the challenge. And I think in many ways it's probably done us good..."

"But it would be wrong for me to mention names, but I have to say that anybody that I've asked about Norwich City Football Club have said: 'Go there! Take the job - whole-heartedly...'

So we've spent quite a lot of time on this," said Delia. "It might not seemed as if we did; it must have seemed as if everything's gone quiet and nothing's going to happen, but we were beavering away in the background the whole time. And now we've got our man so we're really, really happy." Fri, 12 Jun 2009 13:20:53 GMT http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4732 http://norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/full_article.asp?i=4732 We won't have to endure trips to Portman Road or Selhurst Park in the league next season though the club's now gone and arranged a pre-season friendly at Palace. (I wouldn't have thought a game at a bogey ground was the best way to build confidence, but I expect those responsible know what they're doing...) Thu, 11 Jun 2009 21:51:53 GMT
