City will be looking for their first victory since 30th September (!) when they travel to the Welsh capital to play Championship highflyers Cardiff City, who have the best home form in the league with 16 points from a possible 18. The Bluebirds will begin this matchday seventh in the table, whilst the Canaries sit […]
The Preview: Sunderland vs Norwich City
There have been plenty of City/Sunderland clashes over the course of time and this time it gives MFW the opportunity to engage with a friend of mine, Thomas Weetman, a season ticket holder at the Stadium of Light since 2010. He was kind enough to take time out of his break in the Northeast to […]
The Preview: Norwich City vs Leicester City
City play host to second-place Leicester at Carrow Road on Wednesday night as we look to record a statement victory to add to our impressive start to the 2023-24 Championship season under the leadership of David Wagner. At the time of writing, we currently sit in fourth after Saturday afternoon’s hard-fought win against Stoke with […]
CITY v QPR (A) – THE PREVIEW
Norwich City travel to Loftus Road on Wednesday night as they are hosted by Queens Park Rangers as we look to record a much-needed victory in our hunt for a place in the Championship playoffs. At the time of writing, we currently sit in 10th after Friday night’s horror show at Middlesborough, QPR are down […]
CITY vs HUDDERSFIELD (A) – THE PREVIEW
City will be looking to bounce back from their 1-0 defeat to Sunderland at Carrow Road as they are hosted by relegation-fighting Huddersfield Town tomorrow night. Both sides come into this game with a 1-0 loss in their last fixtures – Neil Warnock’s side falling to defeat against West Brom at The Hawthorns. The last […]
CITY v CARDIFF CITY (H) – THE PREVIEW
Norwich City will be looking to win three successive home games at Carrow Road as they host relegation-fighting Cardiff City on Saturday afternoon. Both sides come into this game with wins in their midweek fixtures – Norwich beating Birmingham City 3-1 while the Bluebirds beat Reading 1-0 thanks to a stoppage-time winner from Romaine Sawyers […]
CITY vs READING (H) – THE PREVIEW
Norwich City play their first game since the inevitable sacking of Dean Smith as they host Reading at Carrow Road tomorrow night. They come into this game off the back of losing to ten-man Luton Town on Boxing Day, while the Royals beat Swansea City 2-1 on Tuesday. The last time we played Reading at […]
Unrepentant and doubling down. No olive branch from Deano
Oh, Dean, you’ve done it now haven’t you? If the post-match comments after the Blackburn defeat weren’t enough, then the ones he made in his pre-match presser this morning have taken Old Yeller (or should I say Old Yellow?) behind the woodshed and put us out of our misery. Except, the misery remains for Norwich […]
CITY v SHEFFIELD UNITED (A) – THE PREVIEW
After the lacklustre performance against Luton Town in midweek, Norwich City travel to Bramall Lane in a top-six clash with Sheffield United this Saturday. Both sides come into this fixture having lost their last game 1-0 – City losing to the aforementioned Luton and the Blades losing to Coventry City. The last time we collided […]
At ease Sarge, your first mission is complete
So, this week has been a bit good for Norwich City hasn’t it? The arrival of Mark Attanasio looks imminent, we’ve won two games in the space of three days, Dean Smith’s style of football has finally become recognisable, we’ve kept our first clean sheet, and gone from the bottom of the league to fifth. […]
CITY v WIGAN ATHLETIC (H) – THE PREVIEW
INTRO After falling to defeat in the Welsh capital last week, City host Wigan on Saturday in the early kick-off. Thanks for that one Sky Sports. Both sides come into this fixture having failed to win their opening game – City losing 1-0 to Cardiff City (more on that later) and Wigan drawing 0-0 with […]
Hello Norwich City? Attanasio calling… I’m on my way
Here we go… again. Following back-to-back pre-season defeats in Scotland to Celtic and Hibernian, and a complete fan meltdown on social media due to these results, there is at least one thing all City fans can now get excited about. As reported by Sam Seaman on The Pink ‘Un, by club officials at the Q&A […]
Welcome aboard Gabriel Sara – please be one of our hits, not one of our misses
Finally, Gabriel Sara is a Canary. Welcome aboard. Let’s hope his stay in Norfolk is a fruitful one … because that’s not always the case. Although Stuart Webber has a list of successful incomings in his five-year-stint as City’s Sporting Director, there is an even longer list of players who simply did not work out. […]
Kristall Mani Ingason: Is he worth the punt?
Since the start of the Stuart Webber era, City fans have been used to seeing the club announce a new arrival and thinking ‘who is this guy?’ But the majority of those players ended up being alright. Teemu Pukki, Emi Buendia and Tom Trybull, just to name a few, were great signings but alongside that […]
With Pukki’s agent stirring the pot, time now for Idah to emerge from the Finn’s shadow?
It’s safe to say Adam Idah was one of the few positives in a sorrowful season for Norwich City. Despite a lack of goals and assists, the Irish international proved why he deserves more minutes for the first team before his major knee injury. With his return to the first team fast approaching, and a […]
