Sadly, he left ... http://norwich.theoffside.com/canaries/another-small-bite-of-newsgoalkeeping.html Sorry for not updating this page in a while. Many things have happened and I will summarise them as follows. Three players have left the club...Strihavka, Brown and Brellier are gone. Brown was sold to Preston, the other two had their contracts terminated with immediate effect. Pattison (permanent), ... http://norwich.theoffside.com/championship/a-win-a-draw-and-a-cup-exit.html Norwich, Norwich, Norwich. Why can we never drive a stake into the heart of lower league teams, especially when they come to Carrow Road on a cup visit? It just seems a superstition must lurk in the changing rooms, or on the training ground. Thats more likey. ... http://norwich.theoffside.com/championship/another-draw-and-another-poor-cup-result.html Well, a few months ago in the darkest, gloomiest days of Norwich football, with depressing shadows lent kindly by a certain Mr Grant, we would have shrieked and sobbed our optimism away from fixtures such as these. Yes, to a degree, draws aren't much good to us but it ... http://norwich.theoffside.com/championship/two-draws-against-wolves-and-palace.html Norwich started the game very brightly, a hatful of missed chances...then, as is typical with that type of opening, the other team scores a goal from very little pressure.

These games aren't and never will be BUT they have ... http://norwich.theoffside.com/championship/scunthorpe-0-1-norwich.html Jamie Cureton could barely disguise his delight - and frustration- regarding Norwich City's late equaliser against Colchester last Saturday.

Ched Evans scores early again! But, Norwich are now out of the bottom three! Ched Evans scored from a superb Darren Huckerby cross on ten minutes.

He ... http://norwich.theoffside.com/championship/norwich-1-0-sheffield-united.html The survival fight continues, three wins in four now. More cause for belief? I think so. I went to the game on Tuesday night and it was refreshing to see Norwich take the lead in the opening minutes through a slicing pass from Jamie Cureton to new loanee Ched ... http://norwich.theoffside.com/championship/norwich-2-1-plymouth.html
