I am a Banana 0 Posted April 22, 2010 i have to admit i was once a utd fan (Pups are citys future...norwich) will come and say im chelsea though [;)]this was when i was only 6-8 and was a glory hunter like the rest. then at school we were offered cheap tickets to see norwich vs wolves(i think) and from then on aged 8 I was a norwich fan Getting a half season ticket that year and then a season ticket every year after. and the game after the wolves match I was in the programme as the players celebrated infront of me(that got me hooked too [;)]) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AndyCanary 0 Posted April 22, 2010 My first game was Man United home.. I can barely remember it I don''t even know what year it was.

Murphy and the Bricks 0 Posted April 22, 2010 1983 & I was 10, I''d been to Carrow road a good few times as I was a Liverpool supporter & my Uncle always took me when Liverpool were in town. This time however was different, I had given my mate a pair of football boots that were too small for me as I didnt want any money for them his Dad said he would take me to Norwich game that evening & the rest as they say is history, got a ticket for the next game & so on, been going ever since. Wouldnt give up supporting them for all the money in the world. I have four Daughters Two of which are staunch City fans, one is Liverpool but that fact she has Norwich season ticket think she is slowly turning. The other is the black sheep & supports the scum always has done she & her twin fight like hell over it but no shifting her I''m afraid!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ghost of Davie Ross 0 Posted April 22, 2010 I was 8 when I went to my first game in 1970 against Sheffield United.

Cestrian Canary 0 Posted April 22, 2010 My first game was on Boxing Day 1991, Man City vs Norwich at Maine Road and I was 7 yrs old.

(Northern) Irish Canary 48 Posted April 22, 2010 Palace 1, Norwich 0 - December 1989, when I was 9. Ian Wright scored that day and truly broke my heart.....Proud to say that I was Norwich first ever (home) Premier League mascot in August 1992 when we beat Chelsea 2-1. Met my hero Flecky that day, even though he had just joined Chelsea. Really bad suit I recall, though it was the early 90''s! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
