hogesar 9,618 Posted August 13, 2021 I saw at the start of the week there were some tickets still available so quite clearly there's going to be some season ticket holders staying away (as is completely their right, of course). I was just interested in how many on here are going, or aren't going but normally would? I didn't attend any of the 'trial' games last season nor have I attended any friendlies - I was quite keen for my first game back again to be the 'real' experience. Obviously I can't wait, and I'm pretty sure i'll still be happy after the game if we lose 4-0, just to see live football again and hopefully some of the people that sit around me who i've not seen for some time now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vazzza 62 Posted August 13, 2021 Yup I’m there. Even managed to get my dad a ticket this morning too 👍 Leave home at 11.30am to be in Norwich for 2pm, plenty of time to start ‘warming up’ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Petriix 2,834 Posted August 13, 2021 Since getting my second jab a couple of weeks ago, I'm feeling less hesitant. I'm more concerned for my old man than myself but he seems pretty easy about it. It will certainly be weird going to a crowded place and sitting right next to someone for the first time since that Leicester game. I just hope that people are respectful of each other and stay away if they have any symptoms. I'm pretty excited about seeing some live football though. I have no expectations about the result - it's a 'free hit' as everyone says - but I can't wait to see some of the new players in the flesh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canarydan23 4,060 Posted August 13, 2021 I would be going but have a family visit that I planned at a time when fans in stadiums in August looked very unlikely, so gutted to be missing it. No shortage of takers for my ticket though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beefy is a legend 224 Posted August 13, 2021 I'm going, lower Barclay Block C. Can't wait to watch the game with my brother in a packed Carrow Road. I'm not going to avoid doing the things the make life worth living. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thirsty Lizard 3,155 Posted August 13, 2021 Would have been going - but got COVID last weekend so self isolating. 😞 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,195 Posted August 13, 2021 I just cannot wait. Seeing my footy mates, pre match beverages and hopefully some more familiar faces. I think it will be quite emotional, there's been a lot of water gone under the bridge since I was last at Carrow Rd. Let's blow the bloody roof off! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pete 318 Posted August 13, 2021 Sorry cannot make it everyone enjoy the experience, hope we play well. But 5.30 ko causes problems, first train to Cambridge after match 7.30 will be rammed with Attleboro and Wymondham and standing room only, double jabbed but too soon to risk this journey. 7.30 may be too busy and 8.30 could be overloaded, could try later but cancellations to Cambridge connection might mean night on the station. Too risky 3.00 ko means safer journeys. Stay safe avid breeding grounds for the virus. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
First Wazzock 902 Posted August 13, 2021 Unless wild horses mysteriously turn up and drag me away, I'm in. Sadly I didn't have my hip replaced last year, as was the plan. So, I'm going to have to use the old farts lift to get to the top of the Barclay, if it's being used!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dylanisabaddog 4,870 Posted August 13, 2021 I've deferred for a year, such is my confidence that we'll survive. Saw what happened at the Euros and Latitude and decided against it. I've realised that Bill Shankly was wrong about the life and death thing. I shall rely on @ricardowho is the only reporter I trust. I'll be back but in the meantime I'm watching Mulbarton. Not the same standard but they do at least allow dogs. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However like Pete I can not face potentially rammed unventilated trains. So driving and stopping over. Will be an expensive season if I need to repeat that every game! First time back to Norwich since the Leicester game. Looking forward to it. OTBC 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We were crap after project restart but you never know what might have been had we been able to carry on after that wonderful win in the cup at Spurs. I know we won the league but it almost feels as though last season didn't happen. Feels right that I'm watching Premier League football again. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
