CITY v LUTON TOWN (a) – THE PREVIEW

24th December 2022 By Jamie Lauder 8 Comments

Where to start for this match preview. There’s been a host of excellent MFW content in the aftermath of City’s placid defeat at the hands of Blackburn Rovers, and the Dean Smith disasterclass that followed in his media interviews. Though, despite the cries from thousands – and the empty seats from others – Dean Smith […]

October Loan Update: How are Messrs Mumba, Rashica, Tzolis et al doing?

4th November 2022 By Jamie Lauder Leave a Comment

This is the last full month of evaluation for most of these players until after the World Cup. This is how City’s loanees performed in the month of October. Christos Tzolis It’s been a disappointing month for City’s Greek winger, on loan at Twente. He had a combined 23 minutes in a 3-0 win against […]

September’s loan evaluation: How are Messrs Mumba, Tzolis, Płacheta et al doing?

1st October 2022 By Jamie Lauder Leave a Comment

It’s October! September was a slightly shorter month, with many away or not playing due to the international break, but still lot’s to report on for City’s loanees. Christos Tzolis It’s been an average month for Norwich’s Greek international at Twente. He wasn’t selected to represent his country in the September international break, so only […]

The Attanasio Files: Talking all things MA and MLB with the UKBrewCrew

21st September 2022 By Jamie Lauder 6 Comments

At the end of last week, I chatted with the UK fan club for the Milwaukee Brewers. Unless you’ve been living under a rock and don’t know who the Brewers are, they are the Major League Baseball (MLB) side owned by Mark Attanasio. Last week, Attanasio was appointed to Norwich City’s board of directors, acquiring […]

August’s loan evaluation: How are Messrs Mumba, Tzolis, Płacheta et al doing?

2nd September 2022 By Jamie Lauder 3 Comments

It’s September and the first month of this bizarrely scheduled season has finally run its course. In this piece, we’ll be monitoring the progress of City players who have been out on loan for the past four weeks (and, in some cases, since the last week of July). Christos Tzolis Tzolis has featured in all […]

CITY v COVENTRY (h) – THE PREVIEW

2nd September 2022 By Jamie Lauder Leave a Comment

Norwich City are in fine form. Four wins on the bounce has seen the Canaries rise to second in the league, but Saturday sees a different challenge at Carrow Road. Dean Smith’s side will face off against a Coventry City team who have only played four league matches all season and who currently sit bottom […]

MATCH REPORT: Hull 2, City 1

14th August 2022 By Jamie Lauder 4 Comments

City travelled to Hull desperate for a first league win of the season, with over 1,500 Canary fans packed into the North Stand of the MKM Stadium.  The Tigers’ start to the season was positive, beating Bristol and Preston, before a slightly unsettling Carabao Cup loss to Bradford City in midweek Dean Smith made two […]

CITY v CARDIFF (A) – THE PREVIEW

29th July 2022 By Jamie Lauder 3 Comments

Competitive football is finally back! It’s been over 1,180 days since City fans last saw their team play a Championship away game in person, but that all changes in Cardiff this weekend. Pre-season ended on a disappointing note, with defeats at Celtic Park and Easter Road, but City now look to kickstart their promotion campaign […]

Who can be City’s trequartista for 2022-23?

19th July 2022 By Jamie Lauder 5 Comments

Since Emi Buendia’s departure, City have craved a creator. A player that effectively has a free role, with the sole aim to make things happen. This kind of player is known under many names but, for those familiar with 1990s Italian football (or who play Football Manager), they are known as a Trequartista.  If you […]

Silly season in full swing – with Ryan Fredericks the latest name in the frame

15th June 2022 By Jamie Lauder 5 Comments

Another day, another transfer rumour – this time an incoming. Football League World* have reported that City are interested in fullback Ryan Fredericks, who’s out of contract this summer. Fredericks has a list of potential suitors in the Championship and the Premier League, with Middlesbrough and Fulham both said to be interested, both clubs the […]

Rashica to Schalke? Our restless Kosovan looks keen to return to the Bundesliga

14th June 2022 By Jamie Lauder 13 Comments

Over recent days, transfer speculation has broken out surrounding Milot Rashica’s Norwich City future with a host of European clubs said to be interested, and the Kosovan favouring a move back to the Bundesliga. One of the most interested parties is reportedly Schalke 04, where Rashica would be lining up with former Canary, Ozan Kabak, […]

Dean Smith at 12/1 to be next England manager. Who saw that one coming?

14th June 2022 By Jamie Lauder 4 Comments

Around now we’d normally be soaking up the first full week of games in the World Cup, but instead we’ve had four rounds of UEFA Nations League fixtures as consolation. Whether you agree or disagree with UEFA’s latest international venture, there’s definitely a stigma surrounding it. Some couldn’t care less, calling them glorified friendlies, while […]

The first one through the Colney doors… Mr Isaac Hayden

8th June 2022 By Jamie Lauder 9 Comments

City yesterday announced the signing of Isaac Hayden from Newcastle United, the first since Dean Smith took over back in November. He initially signs on a loan deal, but City have the option to make it permanent, should they get promoted at the end of the season. Hayden came through the Arsenal academy, captaining their […]

What can City fans expect from the club’s new partnership with Coritiba FC?

6th June 2022 By Jamie Lauder 3 Comments

Last Friday, City announced a partnership with Brazilian Serie A side, Coritiba FC. In a quest to gain more knowledge about ‘Coxa’, as they are known, I spoke with Brazilian Canary, Lucas La Torre, and Coritiba fan, and journalist, André Ribeiro. The big question from Norwich fans is, ‘is there any chance of us getting […]

If the US deal comes off, we should expect sabermetrics to play an even bigger role

2nd June 2022 By Jamie Lauder 10 Comments

The rise and rise of the Premier League and the exponential rise of the finances involved, mean it’s incredibly difficult for a club like Norwich City to compete at the top level. It’s especially difficult with Delia Smith and Michael Wynn-Jones at the helm. While they’ve done incredible things for this club and the community, […]

The brickbats have been flying, but here’s the case for the defence of Stuart Webber

30th May 2022 By Jamie Lauder 33 Comments

This article will annoy some – particularly the ‘people with a bedsheet’, as Stuart Webber described them. I started writing this following the release of Webber’s interview with Alice Piper on City’s YouTube channel, where he discusses the failures of last season, and the plan for next. There’s no beating around the bush about what […]

If there is to be a battle to be City’s No.1, who would win it?

18th May 2022 By Jamie Lauder 19 Comments

Tim Krul and Angus Gunn are both exceptional goalkeepers. One has made over 220 Premier League appearances and is a two-time Championship winner with City. The other has only played just a single season as a number 1, finishing midtable in the Championship in Daniel Farke’s maiden campaign. On paper, there seems to be a […]

Why has it all gone so wrong this season for Chelsea and Scotland’s ‘wonder kid’?

10th May 2022 By Jamie Lauder 15 Comments

Upon Billy Gilmour’s arrival, I was excited. In my eyes, we were getting a player who’d been in and around Chelsea’s a Champions League-winning, who has worked under two coaches I felt were perfect for a player like him: Frank Lampard – one of the best central midfielders in recent history – and Thomas Tuchel […]

City’s next generation – who will be next to make the breakthrough?

6th May 2022 By Jamie Lauder 13 Comments

City’s Academy has rightfully received a lot of praise over recent years for the number of young talents nurtured into first-team footballers, such as the obvious ones like Ben Godfrey, Max Aarons and Todd Cantwell. In this article, I’ll be taking a look at the next generation of prospects to come through at City, and […]

Some good, some bad, some mediocre – the hits and misses of the Webber transfers

3rd May 2022 By Jamie Lauder 24 Comments

Over recent weeks, there’s been a lot of scepticism surrounding Stuart Webber and the immediate future of Norwich City. Elsewhere on this website, there are numerous posts about this in more detail, but in light of them, I’ve compiled a list of what I consider to be the best and worst incoming transfers under Webber’s […]
