Those fixtures are perfect. A few tasty home games and the scum and the scummers away before the end of September and then I''m off to uni in Brighton. I move onto the campus on October 1st, just when we play Brighton away. Peachy!

For sheer emotion, ''Loyal supporters'' followed by OTBC at the Middlesborough game after many fans left. For comedy value, ''You only drink when your driving'' towards Jermaine Pennant was good even raising a smile from the lino.

I sat next to that bloke at Watford,lets just say he was a lot happier then than he is now. If I''ve got that right bloke, he''s got Svennson on the back of his shirt!

+ what cruel f*******s at the ticket office thought to put them in ticket shape envelopes? Sadist everyone of them!

I agree completely, fair play to you for doing that it''s just a shame it wasn''t a week later. I can''t understand the people who sell tickets at hugely marked up prices, how would they feel if it was the other way round? Just want to say can everyone who does go to Fulham sing their hearts out for all the fans who would love to be in your position.

Got a ticket shaped letter through and started dancing round my house only to discover that inside there was just a letter saying I was unsuccesful. I''m absolutely gutted seeing as I put my application in before the Charlton game and wanted to go no matter what there was to playful. I was going to buy tickets from the internet but that ticket office at Norwich said that it was very likely I would recieve tickets so I did not bother. I think its disgusting that people are now selling their spares for £100+ and i don''t want to get involved with that so I guess I''m just going to have to watch it on sky. I''ll stick my e-mail address here just in case but I know no-one will have two spares. Its worth a final try though. E-mail: no_name_2029@hotmail.com Mobile: 07854590023

I''ve been trying hole in the walls all day long but my balance has not gone down. I''m hoping that just takes a while to go through otherwise I''m not ging to be happy. Has your balance gone down if you applied for tickets Peter? 

Just wondering whether anyone has a recieved their tickets through the post yet because i''m starting think the worst? Why oh why could it not just be first come first served. It''s the hpe that kills you!

[quote]Colchester - you could at least put in full team of people contracted to NCFC. Scrap your Mulryne option and put in McVeigh (changing formation to 4-3-3), then it would be more acceptable! Oh, and D...[/quote] Obviously because player managers never work. What an oversight though - I missed out graham stuart. Stuart instead of mullers then.

Right silver fox, i''d go 4                  Ward Eddy  Docherty  Charlton Worthington Henderson  Mullers  Holt    Jimbo           Jarvis  Crowe because I reckon after recent results we should change everything

Just wondering whether anyone knows how this ballot allocation works (ticket office insiders perhaps)? I''m in priority group 3, having missed on group 2 by one stub, and I put my application in before the Charlton game. As i was in early, does that mean that I''m more likely to recieve tickets above those how only wanted to go if we were still in it come the last game of the season or does it mean my pllication is now rock bottom of a huge hugely increased pile after the way the last few eeks have turned?

Charlton away for Palace won''t be easy for them if they need a result. Imagine if we had to go to Portaloo Road on the last day of the season needing a result to stay up. (I know it would be easy cos the binners are s***e but thats not the point!)

A mate voted for Super Matty Svensson before the Charlton game and I think that gamble paid off!

Any thoughts?

Just phoned up the ticket office and they said that it was very likely that I would recieve a ticket as they only game that was oversubscribed before was Arsenal and I got tickets for that one. She did mention the neutral supporter seats being sold in the internet but mates are not keen on that so I think I''m going to just sit tight and pray that I will get the tickets. I will be so ****ed off if I dont!

Just wondering whether anyone knows when the tickets through the club will be distributed and how likely I am to get one in band 3 (season ticket holder category), in the sixth other games I''ve done this I''ve got tickets but will it be seventh time unlucky? I''m getting really twitchy because of the internet sales and the fact that I could miss out on the tickets I could buy now.

The snakepit seems to be the loudest in the first half of games, + we, the barclay are louder in the second halfs. Could this be because the old boys in the snakepit get worn out or has anyone got any better suggestions? Its always the snakepit giving the barclay abuse, as in the barclay we have the away fans to abuse so don''t have time to involve ourselves in what sometimes seems to be a civil war. Lest join forces and just get behind the greatest football team anyone could ever support.

SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.................................AAAARGHHHH

Barclay rejects, barclay rejects o o o o

We''re the barclay, we''re the barclay, we''re the barcaly over here. People have different perceptions of what being a football supporter means which is fair enough, not everyone feels comfartbale with/ enjoys singing at games. Having said this when the chants are simple and easily accesible, everyone seems to enjoy themselves. At palace, the whole ground were demanding that **** to dive and against ManUre the ground was rocking with the ''Easy Easy'' chant. This may be because it is hard to work out what the barclay and snakepit are singing, if it is very wordy.

Firstly, learn to spell barclay properly. Secondly, I enjoy the banter between the stands but as arguably we (block E) are the noisiest part of the barclay, we''re so far away from the snakepit so we can''t hear you and you can''t hear us. We kept delia''s barmy army... youseff safri going for about 20 mins in the second half.  At Highbury, the Barclay were proved to be the loudest when ''we''re the barcaly... we''re the snakepit, over here,'' was sang at 4-1 down.

Speaking bad views, its whoever hit to sit directly behind that pillar in the clock end who I feel sorry for. I hope s/he got a £30 disount on their ticket cos u cod only see 10% of the pitch. Reminded me of the old south stand.

i would love it if he did what he did last season and just said "we will stay up." That would be brilliant even if it does make him a laughing stock.

I also make the odd visit to layer road but it''s just a shame that the games always clash (something to do with ipswich not having games the same time as both norwich and colchester for policing reasons) It really is a big gap between the two clubs and its good to go just to see where we could have been if it wasn''t for Nigel. The game is played so differently at that level so its good to watch a team that just hoof it forwards to tall strikers which is probably why i enjoyed the col u vs west brom game so much! If the U''s can beat the baggies at home, there is no excuse if we don''t.

Whoever start that chant deserves a huge pat on the back. I have never sung a song with so much passion and the OTBC that followed was probably the loudest I have ever heard. Watching the game back on FootballFirst you could hear these two songs over the commentary and see how they visibly lifted the players. When we were at 1-1, 2-1, 3-1 we did not let our voices be heard because I, as im sure many others, was too nervous to open up my lungs. As soon as the fourth goal went in, we all just started to enjoy ourselves and boy, did we enjoy ourselves. I am very proud to call myself a Norwich City fan and I do, sincerely, believe we are up there with the best supporters in the country if not the best.
