best away day experiance, not just the result but the whole day. mine was sheffield utd away 10 years or so ago and i got lost in the city, i looked over my shoulder and behind me was blue flashing lights and 2 police motorbikes followed by the norwich team bus, so i followed the team bus straight to uniteds ground, we lost 2-1 that day but was quality. any other good stories?

The playoff final defeat to brum. Brilliant atmosphere, never been to a stadium as big as Cardiff, had the best seats too! The journey home was the best on the tube as the back of the train was over loaded so everyone in there was getting pushed forward and then back - BRILLAITN!

I  really  enjoyed   bristol  away  last  season after  being  asked  to leave  the  bristol rovers  club house as  it  was  for  my  "own safety" I walked  into  town met up with some norwich fans and came  across the annexe which is  used  by the home fans  as well, well both norwich and  bristol rovers  fans had  a great time  singing  songs and  talking  football (its  not  easy when the rovers  fans are  dressed  as  pirates) some   great lads though  the day  was  complete with a  3 -0  win, a  very  enjoyable  day 

was  anyone  else there  at the  annexe ?

I remember  coming out  of  st andrews one tear  aftwe  we had drawb 1-1 and as  the  fans  was  merging  together I was  approached by a  bluenose  of  middle  age and  was  asked   "wheres your  boys  then " he  obviously   wasnt  going  to  ask  them for  a drink all his  mates   were there waiting to jump in  but  thankfully the police came (before I had  chance  to  lay them out lol)

A couple spring to mind, the play off final against brum, the whole day apart from the result was so memorable, when we scored i stood there and thought to myself i''ve never heard Norwcih fans make so much noise.  Also my son at the end who was 8 then had a tear in his eye and i knew then that he had become a real Norwich fan.

The other goes back to the 85/86 season, well two games actually, trips to Carlisle which seemed to take days to get too and looked like we were heading for a ptich on a farm and also at Bradford but at the Odsal stadium where if my memory is right we clinced promotion or went top one or the other.  The camaraderie of the fans on those trips was truely memorable. Also Sir Arthur giving us a free trip for going to Carlisle was a kind gesture

I loved Rovers away, great day [:D] I also enjoyed Brighton last season, nice city, crappy ground in the middle of no-where, good atmosphere, Norwich win from 1-0 down keeping us at the top. What more could you want?

[spencer 1970 214]

me and 2 pals (1 NCFC 1 Millwall (long story)) Man Utd away - our last prem season - we lost 2-1 but the 3000 of us out sung the mancs by far. Probably the best away day for me as me and my pals crashed at my company''s northern accounts office (random I know) on oldham street and didnt sleep for 36 hours due to some rather accomodating manc girls that me & mine clunged at a rather messy night in sankey soaps (google it)...the girls weren''t up for sleeping so we partied till sunday afternoon. then went to the pub. the only down point was we maybe should have tidied up before we left as the accounts dept were not happy bunnies come monday am. dont ask.

,,,oh, and the actual game was ok too. McVeigh scored!? [;)]

Sheff utd, so many pubs

[KeelansGlove 0]

too many to mention

Arsenal 92 4-2 (probably my favourite ever match)

Last game of the 86 season at Sheffield Wednesday so many city fans , I seem to remember there were nearly as many city fans as wednesday fans.

Boxing day Man U 0 Norwich 1

Stuck in traffic after beating Wolves in the play offs and hanging out of the sun roof.

[The Great Drinkell 51]

Barnsley away I think this was the play off year, 4500 of us having bought tickets prior to us looking out of the play offs we win and relegate Barnsley and then one of our rivals loose and suddenly a home win against ?? - bugger I hate old age!  -but Hans Saggers was their keeper and got sent off in the first few minutes. (Stockport i think?)  was all we needed to get into the play offs. We did this then beat Wolves in the play off semi finals with Little WLY scoring the perfect header at the River End before Malky got two.- oh happy days!

Hundreds if not thousands of Norwich fans on the underground crossing London on the way to the play off final, and one poor sod in a Norwich shirt on the tube going the other way lol.

Arriving at the station in cardiff and about 100 or so norwich fans walking out of the station singing on the ball city, only to look up and see about 30,000 brum fans haha.

An amazing day, i''ve watched the dvd over and over. Only i normally stop it after Iwan scores.

[Tangible Fixed Assets anyone? 0]

any day we beat the Binners at Poorman Rd.

Anfield, last game of The Kop.

1-0 Jerry Goss.

It was a fanstastic drunken weekend spent in Liverpool and Blackpool, only spoiled by news of Ayrton Senna''s death.

Good memories chaps, good memories.

My personal faves are the 2-0 win mentioned against Barnsley in Play off season and the 2-0 win at Portman Road where Iwan Roberts scored twice.

On a personal note, had a great weekend in Exeter last year. Got there on the Friday, went out for drinks and heard about Gunny''s sacking. Met up with loads of Norwich and Exeter fans pre-game for drinks in a lovely city (Exeter!) and met some friends who have been good friends for a year now. Had a few more drinks pre and post match and went out in Exeter in the evening. It wasnt a great game, 1-1, but also a baking hot sunny day and the excitement of knowing Gunn wasnt gonna manage us any longer!

Not been to many, best was probably Charlton away last season. Really didn''t expect that to be the day, but was delighted when it was! It was also my kids first away trip.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQb9o2zEomc[:)]

I''ve not done too many but Huddersfield last year was pretty special, more than made up for being at Charlton when we were relegated!

It has to be when I took my Georgian girlfriend to Pride Park, Derby at Xmas 2003 in our promotion season to see her first ever live game. We won 4-0 and she loved it as much as I did !!!  [<:o)]

[/quote]We clinched promotion that day Nolly, I was there as well, had many good away days in the 80''s, did a lot of them in a mini bus full of lads who used to stand at the back of the centre pen in the Barclay.

It was Andy Dibble that was sent off, but yes, a great day, albeit not an away day! Barnsley was ace too

The play-off final was just incredible, result aside. I was fairly young back then, but even games since then have paled in comparison to the moment Iwan put us ahead. Never heard that much noise in my life. A cherished memory.

Southampton/Palace away in the Prem were great for most of the match too, as it felt like we were about to pull off an amazing escape. Late goals in both cost us big time.
