Another wasted season and wasted investment in a 'project' that no one has the courage to see through.

Football is such a short-term reactive business; strategic thinking? #ncfc don't believe in it!

Start again, rinse and repeat... all a bit tedious.

Shame 💛💚

Great stuff Gary.

I'm falling further out of love & touch with the game & all that it has become at the top levels.

I've been to as many Worthing games as Norwich this season & it's a breath of fresh air.

Competitive, better quality than you expect & relatable... plus I'm home 15 mins after 😉
🟢🟡 Still chirpy Blues... Premier League brutality... & trying to square a circle.

1. Jimmy Case, clear foul. Robbed... Still foomin!

2. Denis Van Wyk on the cover of the BHAFC v Soton programme... a personal favourite.

#ncfc
A fantastic win yesterday for #BHAFC. It's just the 6th time in our history we've reached the quarter-finals. The first was in 1983, on our way to the final. We hosted #NCFC at the 6th round stage, winning 1-0. 3 years later we lost 2-0 to #SaintsFC seagullsprogrammes.co.uk

Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

This is UNBELIEVABLE. Keir Starmer has just handed Donald Trump a letter from King Charles, inviting him for a second state visit to the UK. It’s totally unprecedented, and I was so outraged when I he...

Withdraw the state visit invitation to Trump.

Offer one to Zelensky instead. With bells and fucking whistles.

I guess the most likely way to persuade #NCFC to start engaging with fans on here is a bit of fan pressure.

I went to this 'out there' friendly back in 1989,and have the programme.

The only ever Norwich game that my dad went to with me... he was an Arsenal fan though!

#ncfc
I do have a project in mind to blog/write about my favourite 100 football moments in programmes, magazines etc

While we're on Norwich themes, obviously special guest Leslie Ash is in consideration......

Excellent stuff 👏

The thing is, we've always passed the ball on the ground, certainly back to Brown & Stringer teams, probably Bond, too.

Clearances from keeper & defence were probably a bit more agricultural but those players were never trained/coached as technicians.

Personally, I love it 💛💚
🟢🟡 Wail all you like, they just ain't going to 'get rid' or 'hoof it'!

Tin hat at the ready. This is not going to go well. 😊

For many years, 3rd Rd day was a real highlight of the season, an exciting prospect.

The EPL, TV and money have beaten it down to a minor sideshow or inconvenience that attracts limited crowds.

Few upsets, even against weakened teams and no real competition.

Sigh 😕
🟩🟨 The magic of the FA Cup? Pfft.

Yesterday marked the 80th anniversary of the deaths of this crew when their Lancaster crashed into Worthing beach, apparently trying to avoid the town. En route to Munich, after the incident only one body was recovered. The rest are commemorated @cwgc.bsky.social Runnymede Memorial.
