Did anyone else see Traffs enjoying Common People by Pulp?
If it wasn't him it was someone like him - wish I knew how to add photos!!

Outstanding player!

'Oh no' were my initial words when I saw the thread title! I didn't know Big Dave personally and wouldn't have known him if I passed him in the street, but his newspaper reviews were a joy to behold! He seemed like the type of guy I would be glad to call a friend! RIP Big Dave and sincere condolence...

Good attacking team there - looks like we are going for a win!

I'm disgusted to admit I just did a tiny little fist pump at a Leeds goal. I feel dirty and ashamed.

You may not be alone here! We may need a support group started for our defects

What a corker!! Well happy for him!

Cagy first half as you’d expect. Can see a 1-0 late but wouldn’t want to predict which way yet.

Hannibal for Foster please.

Just back from work so only seen last 15 mins and didn't even know Foster was playing!

By Car It takes 4 hours and 43 minutes (228 miles) to reach Norwich from Burnley via the A1. Car parking is available for first team home matches at County Hall, Martineau Lane, Norwich, NR1 2DW, which is a 10-minute walk from Carrow Road. No pre-booking is available, it is first come first serve. ...

Posted another thread, then saw this one - sorry mods! If anyone going to the match tomorrow is partial to vegetarian Indian food, I can highly recommend Namaste Village on Queen's Road in Norwich.

Got mine as well as also local. I can park my car at work just behind the ground. Really handy for me. I've also managed to bag a free lift after posting on our local FB page about where to park and someone said I could have a lift! Pretty kind these Norfolk folk - just hope he's not a mad man!!! :D

I'm sorry to have to post this morning the sad news that Dave Wynne, who used to post on the board as BigDave48, has sadly passed away.

Yes, heard that yesterday too. Good mate of mine was Nidge. Known him since first year at Walton. Along with Shirty (RIP), used to get bussed in on the Cliviger/Worsthorne bus with all the posh kids.

Neil is my brother and will be sad to read the comments, but I will pass them on for him to act on.

Hopefully, it can be the cou...

In the past, even if you didn't meet the criteria yourself for buying tickets you could still access the ticket purchase part of the site and buy tickets to assign to other people in your friends and family who did meet the criteria.

Do you have a season ticket? You can't access it if you don't have a season ticket, even if you have enough points or Friends and Family with enough points.

Any joy?

Hi

Tried connecting with my mobile on the work network and also the incognito mode, but still no joy!

Guess I will have to use my own device when at work from now on

Thanks for the input all - here's to a good season! UTC!

SurreyClaret99

If trying a different browser doesn't work, it's likely a website Security Certificate issue. Thanks claretskeith - I've just tried Edge and it doesn't work, so the security certificate looks like the issue. Is that an issue at my workplace or an UTC board issue? Assuming if no one else has the err...

Thanks everyone so far for your recommendations.
Going to trawl through them over the weekend and plan a few places.
Many of you have talked about moving there - to be honest this is a holiday come recce too!

Being the cosmopolitan jet-setter I am, I'm off for a break in Northumberland in the next couple of weeks.

When I saw the news about Cork and JBG, for some unknown reason, i started singing 'You'll always be a Claret' in my head!!!

And it got me thinking, what is it about certain players that always make them a Claret, when some come and go and we don't give them a second thought?

Anyone else chuckle inwardly when you see Mainoo who plays for ManU?

Ødegaard is one of the players of the season for me. What I wouldn't give if he was a Claret!

I would be very surprised if you aren't able to get one through General Sale.

SurreyClaret99

Due to one thing and another, I haven't been to a game for ages but was eyeing up the West Ham game as it should be fairly easy to get to from Norwich, but what would be my chances of getting a ticket on the General Sale? Will they have all gone before they get on General Sale?

Feel for Nick Pope - he has been playing well this season. Wish he was still our keeper!
