Best known as editor/columnist for MyFootballWriter but, among many other things, has been an expert Norwich City voice at The Metro and BBC Sport. Is currently co-editor at Dave.Sport and has never stopped being an idiot. A season ticket holder in Carrow Road's River End... so moans a lot.
Ipswich fans will be made up to hear that, two days after the event, it still stings as much as it did at 2:30pm on Saturday. That’s just how it is. Tis all part of the life cycle of a local derby. I made the mistake of bemoaning on ‘Twitter’ that the jibes and gloating […]
Not going to lie. I don’t enjoy them. In fact, during that 16-year run that we so wallowed in, I dreaded them. We were in that little-to-gain, everything-to-lose hinterland, and I didn’t like it. The stress and anxiety would start in the week leading up to the game and not subside at any point until […]
Annoyingly, I cannot remember exactly when my first local derby was. It was at Carrow Road, it was in the 1970s, Trevor Whymark played for that lot, and that’s about all I have. What I can remember vividly, though, is my first away derby. One that I was never likely to forget. I lived then, […]
Norwich’s 2025/26 campaign will be remembered for many things, both good and very bad, but among the former will be the fact that it was the breakout season for Jovon Makama. Having joined City with a reputation as a raw but high-ceiling talent, the young striker exploded into the Championship scene this season, becoming the […]
International breaks are a notoriously twitchy time for club managers. Doubly so when your name is Philippe Clement and your squad is already carrying 14 injuries. Suffice to say, he’ll be relieved when he gets his players back and will be hoping there will be no new attendess in the physio room. Last night was […]
Long after the final whistle has blown on his career, Kenny will always be remembered for ‘that’ moment at Hampden Park. And that’s great. Yet, I still believe there’s time for him to conjure up another equally magical Norwich City moment, akin to that header against Man City. He’s now playing the best football of […]
Philippe Clement may or may not be enjoying the international break, but what he will be doing is stressing over whether those who return will do so with a clean bill of health. Ten first-team and academy players are away on duty, and with over a dozen names on the injury list, there is now […]
Northern Ireland are out of the World Cup, beaten 2-0 by Italy in Bergamo, but Norwich’s Ruairi McConville shone again. The 20-year-old was able to carry the form he’s shown for City on to the international stage and was rated among the best players on the night. Sandro Tonali opened the scoring on 56 minutes […]
Pelle Mattsson scored his first City goal to secure a 1-0 win at Charlton Athletic on Saturday, and the Danish midfielder insists the squad must now prove its ambitions in the final stretch of the season. The Canaries now sit 10th on 54 points from 39 games, nine points off the play-offs with seven games […]
Ten Norwich players have departed for international duty this break. At one end of the spectrum is a World Cup play-off semi-final in Bergamo, at the other are some Under-19 elite-round group games at the other. And at the end of it all is an upcoming headache for Philippe Clement. As he has alluded to, […]
Norwich City are expected to commit “decent money” to signing a new central striker this summer, with the Pink Un’s Connor Southwell also predicting significant squad turnover as Philippe Clement continues to reshape his group. Connor, writing in a Pink Un Q&A on Monday, said he believes Clement wants a forward with a different profile to […]
That Philippe Clement boiled the urine of Nathan Jones was no bad thing. Getting Jones to snap and growl and seethe is part of the battle when you play Charlton. Those who succeed in doing so are more often than not the ones who emerge from games against the Addicks with three points. It’s all […]
