Woman in the Stands (WITS) 0 Posted January 25, 2010 KentAnd I don''t care that I don''t come from Norwich. At least I support the best football team in the world!If I supported a local team, it would have to be Charlton, Brighton, Ebbsfleet or Gillingham. I''m staying true to my colours Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wroxham Bridge 26 Posted January 25, 2010 Dear CluckI hope your "proper supporter" comment was tongue in cheek, if not please could you argue why the following disqualifies me from being one. Although I have lived in Bristol for the last 26 years, I saw my City first game in 1968, am a shareholder and a Super Member, been a season ticket holder, went to Milan, both cupfinals at Wembley and many games in between (including Fulham away and Charlton away). This season it''s nine games so far and will be watching us against Walsall, Hartlepool and Millwall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Plenty of time to see sense....[/quote]Nah, too late, reckon you''ve lost ''em.Mine had no choice, they were taught just why Man U, Chelski and Liverpool are rubbish from an early age. I suppose you location makes it more difficult.Some lad in my eldests class was having a go at her saying Norwich were rubbish. When she told me I said, "Oh did he? Well you ask him how many times he''s been to see his team play at home. Then ask him what the score was last time they came to Carrow Road"I think she enjoyed educating him.

Branston Pickle 4,138 Posted January 25, 2010 Born and raised in Thorpe, so was always dead easy to get to the ground, but now live in Surrey; still a season ticket holder, though not sure for how much longer unless we move back (I''m working on that one with the Mrs!) - is getting more and more difficult to get back for games.

claud 0 Posted January 25, 2010 [quote user="Wembley_Canary"]I have noticed that, not sure why some Liverpool fans have a soft spot for us but I have noticed it. Maybe because we were part of their famous last day of the kop. [/quote]From what I''ve been told it''s because we try to play atractive, passing football. Liverpool as a club may have had it''s faults, but their fans have always appreciated football being played in the proper way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dave Watson, Mike Phelan, Steve Bruce, Phil Hoadley et al. Does that put you on that side of Poringland or over near St Marys Way where all the footballers moved to when the new housing went in in the mid 90s? As said on an earlier page I''m now down in Southampton aswell!You are right aswell the locals are gearing up for the south coast derby it won''t be pretty!
