York Canary

Saturday 22nd October 1994 Norwich 4 - 2 QPR Goals from Bowen, Robins, Sheron and an own goal apparently. I went as part of a school trip with St. Williams Primary and remember the elation of winning. Can’t say I remember much of the action itself though! Despite a father that supported Man Utd (even bought me a united lunchbox!) and most classmates supporting more glamorous teams I couldn’t help, but love Norwich right from the beginning. It was my city, so it was my team :)

Sent back the regular fit shirt as it was so wide at the bottom. Got the player fit one delivered to where we’re staying on holiday and it’s much better. Not like the crazy “muscle fit” shirts some teams do. Definitely loving the look of the new kit

Looks a lot lighter in colour here. Out of interest, anyone bother with these ‘player fit’ shirts? Must be selling fairly well as some of the sizes are sold out already (standard and ‘player fit’)

Good move for him. Clear out a few more like Nelson and hopefully we’ll replace with some more exciting prospects. That will do nicely

Nice

I remember a Gateway/Gateways? on Plumstead Road when I was a kid.. before it became a Safeway I think.. good times. Couldn’t beat that model shop further down the road though

A good watch. Both came across very well and I must say it makes me feel proud to have these two looking after the club’s interests. Very glad that their faith in SW (and then DF) has been rewarded

This has made my day. Nearly cried

Working nights, which in some ways is good as it means I’ll be asleep most of the morning and early afternoon so less time to worry.. unless Norwich give me nightmares, which is entirely possible!

If Carlsberg did football scenarios..

I saw this and hoped the camera would pan to the other party, but no luck. Wondered if it was someone like Boyd who had a couple of run-ins with Max. Who knows

Must say I found it very difficult to get over that Reading equaliser at the death. Definitely didn’t sleep well that night and it still annoys me, but I’m sure the players felt much worse. That equaliser against Wigan has gone some way to restoring some calmness and I’ve got a feeling we’ll see a slightly different lineup/formation for the next game, which will hopefully bring a touch more control and creativity. Feeling positive

Good old York. Most of those transfers have been loans I believe. They certainly need them to start performing or things are going to be very, very bad and they will be moving into a nice, big, shiny new stadium whilst playing non-league football

Alex previously spoke about the Jarvis signing adding pace to opposite flank so I can''t see him wanting to sell the only pace on the right side.

More importantly, in money terms Nathan still has the most potential to be an extremely valuable asset. One decent run of performances and suddenly his value will rocket in my opinion. He''s young, British, a starter and standout performer for the England under 21''s, a Premier League regular, pacy, tricky, decent shot etc. One decent run of form and he will be firmly back in the spotlight and there will be rumours galore. Then if we have to sell him, it will at least be for top dollar.
