Since the glory days under Worthy,

[NeverBlueSince1902 0]

is this the proudest you''ve been to be a Norwich City fan?

Of course you should always be proud to support a wonderful club like ours but we''ve had some trouble in the past few years...

I have nothing to complain about- and it feels weird!

Nothing to complain about? You Sir must be a Binner!

I mean there''s Lappin, both Martins, Ruddy and lets not forget Delia all to complain about.

Take your choice there''s planty to complain about if you want to :)

Im always proud to be a Naarich fan[Y] Im buzzing on how well we are doing atm[:D] long may it continue

[GenerationA47 746]

Definitely - because pride in current success is added to undying pride in identity.

Although... as they say, we haven''t won anything (major) yet ;-)

I would be if we were coming up to the end of the season in this position. Still early days, with a lot of twists and turns to come.

How right you are Cluckbert! During my ten years in control, and I''m not boasting, just being factual - we finished third, fourth and fifth in the top flight, reached two FA Cup semi-finals and during one season stayed at the top of the first division longer than any other club. Rarely does a club as small as Norwich hold the top spot for so long.

Yes, they were the real glory days for "Little Norwich".

Does not matter what I say, as everyone on here is so clicky - but what Worthy did for this club was beyond brilliant.

A team with no one outstanding (except Hucks and Greeno), one stand missing, limited budget, etc etc

Unfortunatley, everyone got such high expectations, and expected us to bounce back, and when he didn''t the daggers came out!

Cue the abuse...no i''m not related to him or Nutty in disguise

Ahh Colchester not a lover of attractive football or someone old enough to remember the days of Stringer, Brown, Bond, Saunders or Macauley either.

Worthington typified everything that was wrong under Smith''s ''little old Norwich'' regime.....Open top buses for a team that failed in the play-offs.... gushing ''appreciation'' for being allowed to play against the ''big'' teams etc etc.He was a little man working for a little woman achieving very little..........

Things were better in your day Cluck eh ?  It is sad that what was bread and butter to us in the 80s (promotion and relegation to and from the top tier) became the glory days for a younger generation, but we fell out of the top level at just the wrong time.  And you can thank the fat controller for that.

Sadly too many ungrateful ''fans'' felt we had a God given right to stay in the top flight..... which is absurd for a club with such limited resources. I repeat that McNally etc.would give his eye teeth to have the trifling 6 million debt and stack of assets Robert Chase left behind.... not to mention the great legacy of Geoffrey Watling. Delia Smith had the lot and blew it.Now we are seemingly happy to be an average Division Two club ''punching above it''s weight''........ and a tired old celebrity keeping her mug in the papers.
