Pockthorpe 515 Posted January 22, 2021 (edited) In a particular order for me , at the time Farke. Simply the best for me Brown. Bloody loved the bloke , cried when he left . Lambert. 4-1 and 5-1 . Edited January 22, 2021 by Pockthorpe Reasons why Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HazzaJet 252 Posted January 22, 2021 (edited) In the time that I’ve supported Norwich I would go for: Worthington - got us very close to promotion in 2002, then won the title for our first promotion in my time supporting them 2 years later Lambert - got us straight back up to the 2nd tier as champions, won automatic promotion to the top flight the following season finishing us mid table in the PL, kept our rivals in the 3rd tier for an extra season and might possibly even keep them in there longer... Farke - won the title, and although we didn’t stay up I think this was more down to injuries and insufficient funds not poor management and now looks poised to take us straight back up If I was about 5 or so years older I might put Walker in there - I was alive during his first spell as manager and that UEFA cup run, it's just my Dad didn't introduce me to football until about 1996 (I remember him saying to me "last season Norwich were in the Premiership") Edited January 28, 2021 by HazzaJet 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yellow Fever 3,684 Posted January 22, 2021 Quite a few notables but ignoring any rose tinted modern day specs - Stringer - created the team that Walker got so close to a modern day Leicester. Saunders - Our first big time. Bond - The days of Peters Something like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Graham Paddons Beard 2,351 Posted January 22, 2021 Impossible to say . Rodent was the worst as a person . Deehan, Grant , Hamilton were the most inept . Scumbert would be up there if he wasn’t such a w4nker . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PurpleCanary 5,530 Posted January 22, 2021 Favourite (not necessarily the most successfully but in terms of how they managed, the sense of bringing something different and the way their teams played being a kind of vision) is Bond without a doubt. After him, probably Stringer and then Farke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Ryans Express 29 Posted January 22, 2021 Stringer, Brown, Bond. This is about favourites,so that's the way I've voted,but I suspect the best one may well be Farke... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LaUnionCanary 80 Posted January 23, 2021 Saunders, promotion to the 1st division for the first time in our history. Bond, changed our footballing approach totally. And what a character. Brown, Wembley 1985. Farke may usurp one of these in the near future, but is not quite there yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex Moss 2,165 Posted January 23, 2021 Stringer, Walker Mark 1, and Farke. Loved Worthy too actually, and O’Neill for *THAT* play off final. It’s a shame I can’t include Lambert on that list but so much stuff has happened. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

king canary 7,453 Posted January 23, 2021 Lambert- obviously a **** but gave me the best three years as a Norwich supporter I can remember. Worthington- I was 13 in the 01/02 season so some of the memories from his spell here are some of my most treasured as a youth. Farke- the best times came after I'd already given up my season ticket but still amazing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fiery Zac 1,065 Posted January 23, 2021 Favourites (don’t remember pre Walker): Farke Neil - don’t know if I’m surprised or not that he’s not been mentioned. Loved the appointment of an unknown and even more so his arrival to the club pretty much at half time vs Bournemouth. A wonderful, whirlwind of a half season that culminated in one of the best days out I’ve ever had to a football match. He was very much learning and found wanting in the PL but a really nice bloke to talk to and seemed a very good man manager. Walker (simply can’t put Lambert in there as a favourite because he has shamefully destroyed his reputation. The football was superb and the 3 seasons were some of the best football I’ve had the pleasure of seeing, so thanks but good riddance. Also, Farke has eclipsed the Lambert championship season quite comfortably) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
