IPSBest 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 F1 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.
Kenny McLean has confirmed he will remain at City next season after the club triggered a one-year extension in his contract, securing his stay through to the summer of 2027. Speaking on BBC Radio Norfolk’s The Scrimmage on Monday night, the 34-year-old captain said the decision was actually finalised during the tenure of former manager […]
All in all, it was a pretty infuriating afternoon, and had nothing to do with not playing particularly very well and getting a little bit battered. Neither did it, to be fair, have anything to do with a Leeds home crowd that is again challenging for the crown of the country’s ‘most smug and self-important’. […]
City’s FA Cup journey of 2026 ended on Sunday as Leeds eased to a 3-0 fifth-round victory at Elland Road. Goals from Sean Longstaff and Gabriel Gudmundsson had the tie effectively wrapped up before half-time, with Joel Piroe adding a late third so kill of any prospect of a late City comeback. Philippe Clement was, […]
Former City keeper Tim Krul has urged the current squad to travel to Elland Road for today’s FA Cup fifth-round tie against Leeds with “real confidence,” citing the form that has made them the Championship’s most dangerous team in 2026. Krul, who became a Norwich folk hero after his penalty-shootout heroics against Tottenham in the […]
You don’t accidentally reach 300 appearances at Norwich City. Kenny McLean has earned every single one of them, across eight seasons, two promotions, multiple head coaches, and at least one regime that definitely should never have happened. Our 34-year-old Scottish midfielder extraordinaire is set to reach his landmark on Sunday when Philippe Clement’s in-form Canaries […]
Former Arsenal striker Alan Smith has urged City to capitalise on Leeds United’s relegation anxiety when the two sides meet in the FA Cup fifth round at Elland Road on Sunday. Smith said Norwich should exploit any complacency or split focus from a Leeds side preoccupied with Premier League survival. His comments come days after […]
EFL clubs voted on Thursday morning (March 5) to expand the Championship play-offs from four teams to six, starting from next season. The decision was reached at an extraordinary general meeting. It is being presented as a move to level the playing field against parachute payments and keep more of the table alive late in […]
We were 23rd in the Championship when Philippe Clement walked through the door. Everyone knows that. Everyone also knows that we’re 17th now. An 11-point buffer from the bottom three with 11 to play feels pretty good considering how rubbish we were all feeling for most of the first half of the season. It’s also […]
There’s a lot to like about Jacob Wright. Philippe Clement agrees. But in this instance, his natural bullishness (which we love) has given way to caution. Speaking to the Pink Un this week, City’s head coach laid out his thinking on the 20-year-old midfielder’s progress, as he discussed the player’s development beyond the current season. […]
Philippe Clement doesn’t do false modesty. But he does do measured bullishness. Asked ahead of Sunday’s FA Cup Fifth Round trip to Leeds United whether his side were capable of competing at Premier League level, the Norwich City head coach offered a response that left little room for doubt. “I believe against every opponent that […]
Thank your god (if you have one) for Philippe Clement, who wasted no time in stopping the rot. Good job too. He had no time to waste. With no thanks to those who steered the ship up until mid-November, but with thanks abound to Clement, Stephan van der Heyden and the coaching team, daylight now […]
Talk of the expansion of Carrow Road has been a thing for years. Many of them. Rumour had it that back in the days of Robert Chase, he had a model of a brand-new purpose-built stadium on the corner of his desk. I never knew if that was really a thing. It’s never gone away. […]
