When I pointed out on here about 5 years ago that Norwich and Ipswich were the true hotbeds of football support in England (and not Liverpool or Newcastle), you laughed at me!I can't understand some people's attitude to other clubs/cities. Who are we to patronise Norwich FFS, with our 5,000 fans to their 25,000?
Norwich is a place that has always been patted on the head by the national media, but they have just got their heads down, got on with it, and as a result have probably one of the best places to live in the country. Less to do than Brighton? If that was true once, I would say no longer, and certainly if pubs are important to you there is no finer selection anywhere.
Plus their support is quite simply outstanding. There as a queue of coaches (for home fans) outside the ground last night from the further-flung outposts of Norfolk that reminded me a little bit of Celtic Park.
So I agree with you. The support at these two clubs has always been first class and the support at Norwich this season has been simply amazing really.
