Canaries for Ever 0 Posted May 23, 2010 My other half ''supports'' West Ham and we live a lot closer to Upton Park but we both have season tickets at Carrow Road and travel. Not sure he could afford West Ham anyway! [:D] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

King Klose 0 Posted May 23, 2010 [quote user="Stevee Wonder"]You guys (and gals) have let yourselves down. What you need to do is talk about Norwich so much they eventually support us. My missus is from Hull, so kinda supported them, but she didn''t really like football. Now she''s a fully fledged Canary...and always wears my old Norwich shirts :-) Get to work converting everyone lol[/quote]Already converted mine. [:P]Taken her to home and away games now she cant stay away lol! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stevee Wonder 0 Posted May 23, 2010 Lol. I took mine to Southampton (2-0 loss) and MK Dons (scrapped a 1-1 draw) last season so maybe i should stop taking her too often. I''ll be keeping the work up this season lol...should be going to a few away games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Muddy funster 0 Posted May 23, 2010 Where abouts in Burnley is she from Mr Chops??? I might know her! Is she late 30''s??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Muddy funster 0 Posted May 23, 2010 Whilst I have let the side down slightly with my Mrs, she is slowly being won around. plus I win bonus points for teaching my 18 month old daughter to touch the picture of Carrow Road on her way into our house and to cheer.....every time......She now screeches at my other half if she doesn''t hold her to touch the picture on her way into the house! Ha - result! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary Girl 0 Posted May 23, 2010 Weird situation with my ex boyfriend in that it was him who couldn''t stand football. He actually tried to ''ban'' me from watching / talking about football. He would even turn the TV off if I was watching an England match, and once tried to tell me that I couldn''t go to matches with my dad, who played for the Norfolk school boys, and was offered professional terms with Norwich City when he was younger.Major contributor to me walking away from that relationship!

Yobocop 1,095 Posted May 23, 2010 Good on you. Sounds a bit gay as well if he can''t stand football, so I agree good you got out of that one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary Girl 0 Posted May 23, 2010 Tell me about it.Apparently he was a rugby guy, although I never actually saw him watch any. It was always quite funny in the pub if there was an England footie match as he tried to act like he knew what he was talking about in front of his mates.I can''t stand blokes who pretend to be something they aren''t. At least be a man and admit if you don''t like something!Anyway, at least now I get to as many Norwich matches as possible with either my dad or brother!

Harry 0 Posted May 23, 2010 My other half had know interest in Football when she met me but has seen the light, she has been to see some City games with me and listens on the Radio when she doesn''t come, I have also converted her 2 lads (9 and 10) who were both born in Blackpool.Her family are Jocks and support Celtic.

Inch High aka Inchy.. 405 Posted May 23, 2010 My Mrs is another who hates football, when I first met her in 1981 I took her to the next 2 games which were Spurs away and a home game I can''t remember and until earlier this year she''d never been back. The only reason she went this year was because we were sitting in the directors box.Her stock answer if asked is "i hate football it''s like watching paint dry" but if pushed she always says Norwich.[Y]To her credit she has never in 29 years stopped me going to or watching football or my other love of motor racing.

slater 0 Posted May 24, 2010 My girlfriend is a season ticket holder at Ipswich Town. We met each other at the first ''Shake Hands for Derby Day'' fans'' football match in 1999 - so clearly, at that time, I didn''t feel a tremendous amount of hostility to the horsey feckers.What changed that was meeting some of her fellow ''super'' blues. I''ve always felt that a lot of NCFC fans'' hostility towards Ipswich was a bit like hissing at the pantomime villain but many of my g/f''s (otherwise perfectly amenable) Ipswich Town supporting friends are obsessive in their dislike for Norwich - could it be that they don''t have much of a life outside of football? That''s when my attitude began to change.Add in their club''s disgraceful episode in administration, their takeover by an evil baron who makes cash from arms-dealing conferences and some rather unpleasant derby day experiences at Portman Rd and I now reciprocate some of that hostility.

Muddy funster 0 Posted May 24, 2010 Yes but Slater, she at least she realises that Ips*** are mostly rubbish. That''s to her credit.
