Have you thought of joining Northern Canaries ? They''re a great bunch and will know of City supporters living in Yorkshire..........

Contact : Steve Cooke on 07831 315144 or e-mail him at scooke@northerncanaries.com

You can always have a look at the website first : www.northerncanaries.com

Incidentally all the exiled supporters groups are listed in each Norwich City home match programme.

Good luck ............

Unlucky you...

I lived in Leeds between 1997 and 2001.

I was also up there yesterday...  what a dump they have allowed the place to come over the last few years!!!

They seemed to spend a fair bit of money on the City when Leeds Utd were doing well...  now most of the City looks as desperate as the football club has become in recent years!!!

I''m from Hull in East Yorkshire so just over an hour away - There was a bunch of 7 or 8 of us that used to meet up in the pub for every match during the premiership season and my girlfriend works with another one!

Everywhere you turn you can''t escape city fans up here!

Hiya Canarygirl, Yeah I`m a carra exile too. Live in Bingley (about 15 miles out) and work in the geneal infirmary in the centre of Leeds. Been up here for nearly 5 years. Try to get to as many games as possible (work commitments allowing) Def going to Sheff Wed along with a couple of other Norfolk exiles. Would be good to meet up with any other Leeds / Northern canaries before the game for a cheeky shandy or three!!  OTBC

I live in North Leeds near the airport.

Had the same problem with work but have just changed jobs so looking to go to as many nearby games as possible next season.

Would be good if Shef Utd go down, leeds stay up & scunthorpe, forest or Oldham get promoted.

Loads of close matches to go and see!!

I''ve been living up here in Leeds for 35 years since I came to university but I''m Norwich born and bred. I''ve been to many away games in that time with a few highs and many lows, especially that defeat to Leeds on the last game of the season in ''95 which sent us out of the Premiership. I usually go if City are playing in the North and occasionally games in the Midlands. My son [21] and my daughter [18] have been brought up int he true faith and often accompany me. I also have two friends in Wakefield who I sometimes travel with depending on the location of the game. Sometimes I have space in my car, so if you''re stuck get in touch. We will be going to the Wednesday game and will probably meet up with some other exiles in a pub called the Horse and Jockey on Wadsley Lane.
