PREVIEW

Forget the Brazilians dancing with joy. Forget plucky Moroccans defying the odds. Forget England looking like actual contenders at a World Cup. It’s back to Smithball tomorrow. (*World’s slowest handclap* – Ed). It feels like when you’ve been on holiday, but now it’s back to work, and your job is unblocking toilets. In all fairness, […]

I always look forward to City v Boro, and not just because we have a good recent record against them or because it gives us a chance to rehash that now-famous YouTube clip of that Boro fan telling us “yous is shite”. While all of the above contain elements of fact, my real reason for […]

Saturday sees the travelling Canary faithful embark on the tortuous [no hyperbole here as any poor soul who has attempted it will confirm] trip along the A47, A17, and A1 to the New York Stadium, the home of Rotherham United – now known as the AESSEAL New York Stadium for naming rights purposes. This has been […]

Just one win in eight, and then a confidence boost for Dean Smit and his men came along in the form of a 3-1 win against Stoke. What next for the Canaries? Well, QPR at home – a real test. City will take with them the momentum from the win over Stoke, but an in-form […]

Alex Neil faces his old club for the first time this season as he brings his Stoke City side to Carrow Road. Since his appointment on the 28th August, it’s been a mixed bag for the Scotsman. In his opening 10 fixtures, the Potters have been unable to find any sort of consistency but have […]

A quiet revolution has taken place down Turf Moor way. Where once the Burnley faithful saw hoofing, now they see passing: that extraordinary phenomenon where one footballer uses his skill to pass the ball to another, the idea being that Player B then uses the same technique to pass to Player C and so on. […]

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 […]

By nature, I much prefer to play things down rather than up – probably part of the reason why I only ever made it to the very lowest levels of sports writing – but even I’m struggling to downplay the importance of tonight’s game. A good win and the ship (for a few days at […]

I want to like them, I really do. Watford’s the local team where I live and many friends support them. As foreign owners go, Watford’s are decent on community involvement and support. And, of course, the club has followed a parallel path to City’s in recent years. We should feel some solidarity. There are three reasons, of […]

Okay, not to be simplistic but Preston are the dullest and least inspiring team in the league. These are their results so far: Wigan A 0-0 Hull H 0-0 Luton A 0-1 Win Rotherham H 0-0 Watford H 0-0 Cardiff A 0-0 Coventry A 0-1 Win Birmingham H 0-1 Loss Burnley H 1-1 Sheff Utd […]

Tuesday night and the Championship’s relentless march continues to a town where I lived for a decade, Reading – a team managed between 2019 and 2020 by Norwich City Hall of Famer, and arguably Norwich’s greatest-ever left-back, Mark Bowen.  Our first meeting with Reading came in the 1908-09 FA Cup. The two were drawn in […]

Not many were predicting an early-season promotion charge from Reading and, in fact, the bookies and experts were talking up a right Royal battle at the opposite end of the table this season. But something is stirring down Berkshire way and a home win at the Madjeski tomorrow night would see Reading leapfrog City in […]

The Canaries pick up the post-international break baton against Blackpool at Bloomfield Road on Saturday afternoon and there is a nice little bonus on offer for supporters. For the princely sum of £90 [£75 if you’re a season ticket holder], you have the chance to join Norwich City legend Wes Hoolahan for a pre-match meet […]

City will be aiming to make it seven consecutive Championship victories ahead of the visit of West Bromwich Albion to Carrow Road tomorrow.  After a tough opening three fixtures, Dean Smith’s men have hit a much-needed positive patch of form. However, despite winning six on the bounce, scoring 13, and conceding 4, a fair portion […]

I’m going to kick this one off in somewhat unorthodox fashion by giving you, dear readers, a little taste of what life can be like in the MFW dressing room. When it comes to previews, Gary allows those of us with friends who support our opponents to pre-book these games if we wish to and […]

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 […]

On paper, a trip to struggling Birmingham shouldn’t hold too many fears. But this is Norwich City. And the Championship. Nothing comes easy and nothing gets taken for granted. The Blues may have had a tricky start to the season and may have off-field struggles ongoing but at 7:45 tomorrow evening it’ll all be back […]

The joys of a 12:30 kickoff on Wearside await the travelling Yellow Army tomorrow, the first time we’ve played Sunderland since April 2018. In true Norwich City fashion, we took just a point off them that season over the two games despite them ending up getting relegated. But now they’re back and after a traumatic […]

It’s Millwall time again tomorrow evening as we welcome the lads from South East London to Carrow Road. We might be buoyed by our first win of the season against Huddersfield Town on Tuesday but the Lions will be roaring with relief after that incredible comeback to earn a 2-2 draw against Swansea City. I […]

Tomorrow night’s clash with Huddersfield Town is shaping up now to be an extremely important one for Dean Smith in his Norwich City tenure. After a disappointing away defeat to Hull there are real question marks surrounding the former Aston Villa boss and the direction of travel in which he is taking this squad.  Danny […]
