CowboyCanary 38 Posted May 6, 2021 Norwich City recognized me as a "fanatical American supprter. I was invited into the dressing room after a match and then to the private club for a drink and introduced to Sir Arthur South. The American Serviceman Newspaper got wind of the occassion and wanted to run a story. Ken Brown tipped off the Eastern Daily Press and they got involved. Ken Brown also gave me Ted MacDougall's game jersey. My son still wears it. I saw many matches from the River End and made many friends. I saw most of the prominent players of the time. In my opinion, the best player I actually was fortunate to watch is Colin Suggett. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sussexyellow 55 Posted May 6, 2021 Suggett is a good call. Key player in that team and overlooked. Great that you have never lost your allegiance but Norwich does that to you.l! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crikey - I'm not the only one who thought Suggett was our best player ! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
