Yobocop 1,105 Posted March 15 Greetings fellow Canaries, Big Post of the week returns for a one off Comic Relief special! In this edition of the Big Post of the Week, we're delving into the realm of missed opportunities in headline writing for Norwich City stories. Imagine the headlines that could have been, the puns left unspoken, the wit untapped. For instance, when Lukas Rupp departed Norwich, why didn't the headlines scream, "And That's a Rupp!"? Opportunity missed, I say! Now, it's your turn, Norwich faithful. Share your best untold headlines, the gems that slipped through the cracks of media creativity. Yours in headline justice, Yobocop Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheGunnShow 5,953 Posted March 15 SAINZ MEANZ GOALZ! (any time Borja hits a banger) SARGENT DISHES CORPORAL PUNISHMENT (any time Josh hits the winner) PUT THE KJETIL ON! (cries for Knutsen to become our boss become louder) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheGunnShow 5,953 Posted March 15 (edited) Speaking of past players and wordplays, I'm sure there's something that can be done with Erik Fuglestad and "birdie", somehow, considering that in Norwegian, "fugl" means "bird" (and it's "fuglur" in Faroese). And considering we're the Canaries..... But I'm drawing a blank at the moment. Can't quite wing one. EDIT: That all sprang to mind within seconds of putting the Kjetil on. My brain's ability to free-associate like hell on occasion can catch even me by surprise. Edited March 15 by TheGunnShow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To be fair, their announcer came up with a cracker when we beat them 3-0 at their ground when the lights went out temporarily when the song Blinded By The Light came up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
