Still some unknowns, but a landmark moment for our football club is weeks away

17th February 2023 By Gary Field 13 Comments

Norwich City Football Club and general meetings are beginning to resemble London buses. You wait an eternity for one to arrive, and then two come along almost together. On the surface, they probably don’t seem to be of any significance. September’s meeting, which lasted barely fifteen minutes, with less than 30 in attendance, was surpassed […]

An AGM, but not as we know it…

11th November 2022 By Gary Field 34 Comments

Over the years I’ve been to a fair few Norwich City AGMs – the annual opportunity for shareholders to gather to approve the latest set of accounts. Normally, they’re quite staid affairs, with the formal business typically taking less than 20 minutes, often followed by brief presentations, by various people within the Club’s hierarchy, and […]

Silence is golden, just maybe?

7th June 2022 By Gary Field 19 Comments

Friday, 27th May already seems like a lifetime ago – the breaking NCFC news, which actually said not very much at all, aside from the fact that seven American citizens were guests in the directors’ box at Carrow Road at the previous weekend’s game against Spurs. The intervening period has, understandably, been littered with numerous […]

From Milwaukee to Carrow Road – Happy Days ahead maybe?

29th May 2022 By Gary Field 5 Comments

Up until Friday’s breaking news, my personal knowledge of the residents of Milwaukee was strictly limited to one Arthur Herbert Fonzarelli, better known as Fonzie, or the Fonz – a fictional character played by Henry Winkler in the 1970s American sitcom, Happy Days. Now there’s a new name to Google – Mark Attanasio, owner of […]

Like it or not, it really is all about the money

3rd May 2022 By Gary Field 11 Comments

It barely seems a year ago, but we’ve just passed the first anniversary of the ill-fated launch of the so-called European Super League. At the time, my abiding memory upon first hearing the announcement was “just how much money do those greedy b**tards want?” Both the Premier League and the ‘big six’ have always made […]

An AGM unlike any other but with a positive air and praise aplenty for City’s Academy

27th November 2020 By Gary Field 5 Comments

As Norwich City AGM’s go, they really don’t come much different to this; online, with no fans physically present and with Stephan Phillips in charge – was it really two years ago that Ed Balls joked about being on a mission to get Stephan to answer a question? Of course, these are unusual times and […]

What it felt like to be one of the lucky thousand in a socially distant Carrow Road

22nd September 2020 By Gary Field 6 Comments

It’s something of an understatement to say that a lot has happened since the 28th February; nearly seven months ago and the last occasion many City fans had the opportunity to visit Carrow Road. Therefore, last Wednesday morning’s announcement by the EFL that City’s game against Preston North End had been selected as one of […]

A Norwich City FC decade… by numbers

30th December 2019 By Gary Field 2 Comments

As the decade finally draws to a close, it’s worth pondering should it really be described as the stereotypical terrible teens? For context, it’s been a decade that started for the Canaries with half a season in League One, has subsequently given us five Championship seasons, plus four and a half seasons in the Premier […]

Time to stop playing the self-funding card? Always a nagging doubt over what’s next

10th July 2019 By Gary Field 27 Comments

We’re frequently reminded that “football isn’t like any other business.” And, judging how some football clubs seem to operate, you could easily be forgiven for thinking that their respective owners, or CEOs, seem to take leave of any business sense they’ve acquired over the years. Of course, as fans, we don’t often get to choose […]

Final word on AGM: Openness and transparency but difficult decisions ahead for the Board

25th November 2018 By Gary Field 4 Comments

If you’re ever minded to ask the question, when, for a football club, is the best time to hold an AGM, being top of the league, with ‘that lot’ 23 places below you, together with a relatively healthy set of financials in your back pocket, that’s probably just about perfect – if Heineken did AGM’s… […]

No seven-goal-thriller, but Jordan’s hat-trick sees City through to next round of the Carabao

26th September 2018 By Gary Field 13 Comments

MFW’s go-to guy for midweek away trips, Gary Field, delivers yet again. Here are five things that struck him after his Tuesday night jaunt to Adams Park…  Ringing the changes Nine changes (one of the unusual consequences being an increase in the average age of the starting XI – something of a rarity for League […]

Two wins on the bounce for buoyant City and some canny game management

20th September 2018 By Gary Field 6 Comments

MFW’s Gary Field was one of the heroic 919 at the Madjeski last night. He kindly offered us a few post-match observations… Home grown and club developed… It may have gone unnoticed by many that all but one of City’s previous seven Championship match day squads had contained the absolute minimum of seven ‘home-grown’ or ‘club […]

A non-descriptive 80 mins followed by a late flurry, but two big questions remain unanswered

29th July 2018 By Gary Field 31 Comments

As away grounds go, Charlton has to be one of my personal favourites (even if the away end is rather basic). The continuous “bowl” wrapping around three sides makes it a proper ground – the product of Premier League dosh and seven consecutive top-flight seasons in the early 2000s. Better times and, undoubtedly, better owners […]

Hands up if you know your FSF from your SD or your PL Fans Fund. No? Then read on…

23rd July 2018 By Gary Field 5 Comments

Okay footy fans, engage your inner nerd and raise your hands up if you know your FSF from your SD or your PL Fans Fund? Chances are, if given their full names, many football fans will have probably heard of The Football Supporters’ Federation (FSF) and Supporters Direct (SD) – maybe without realising their differences […]

Self-funding or not self-funding? That it (sort of) the question…

8th May 2018 By Gary Field 20 Comments

To be, or not to be: that is the question: Perhaps it’s overly dramatic, maybe even misguided, to cross-reference Shakespeare’s famous soliloquy, which seeks to get to the core question of human existence, with football. Nevertheless, there’s a debate rumbling around the Canary Nation, as we contemplate a third Championship season, this time without parachute […]

We know the financial state we’re in (kind of). But what about our competitors? Gary F takes a look…

4th April 2018 By Gary Field 20 Comments

As the 2017-18 Championship season meanders towards a painfully drawn out conclusion, with Norwich City unfortunately destined for a mid-table finish, the prospect of a third consecutive season a second-tier level inevitably beckons. What will make 2018-19 season different to the proceeding two seasons is the loss of the Premier League parachute payments, as the […]

Minus promotion there’s a double whammy on the Canary horizon. Time for the Yellow Army to brace itself

28th November 2017 By Gary Field 23 Comments

It’s that time of year again, isn’t it – where the combinations of a bad run of form, the Club’s annual accounts, together with the forthcoming Annual General Meeting, that’s left many fans questioning the direction in which the Club is going? Many of my fellow writers have already alluded to the need, in their […]

More positivity for the Y’Army faithful as Farke’s City takes another small step en route to August 5

26th July 2017 By Gary Field Leave a Comment

  As my train trundled out of London, destined for Charlton, I was afforded a few moments of reflection. A lot has happened since my last visit to the Valley back in February 2015. That particular game was Alex Neil’s sixth in charge and arrived a amidst a sequence of 13 away games that saw […]

Stand still in football and you’re in danger of going backwards. But with a pot of finite resources…

28th June 2017 By Gary Field Leave a Comment

June 2017 has been something of a landmark month for the Canaries. Not only has it been the 115th anniversary of the club, it’s also seen the formal arrival of its first overseas head coach plus his chosen backroom staff, four new players (almost unheard of in these parts in June), the end of the […]

Club’s an absolute mess both on and off the field; the evidence is stacking up and it’s damning

6th March 2017 By Gary Field 21 Comments

The Board have recently said that they’re undertaking their own strategic review – the evidence suggests it’s desperately required. It needs a huge dollop of realism, accompanied with an open and honest debate on the Club’s vision and identity. Whether we get that is another matter.

Unpopular #NCFC opinions

- Sara isn’t half as good as anyone makes out
- Josh Sargent is league 1 level
- Tzolis is awful and no better than Placheta
- Nunez is also not very good
- Even though he isn’t scoring currently we are f*cked when Pukki leaves
