The New Old Norwich

Glad that's over! What a stinker of a season for Norwich City. But what happens now? Where do we go from here? Is Dad right in saying 15 years on since Darren Huckerby left after 5 years, history could repeat itself with the departure of another key player after 5 years Teemu Pukki? And it's episode 42, so we finally confirm the greatest ever Norwich City Squad for a Premier League season! Learn m...

Another frustrating result against a top ten team, another home defeat, 4 games without a win, the wheels have come off the David Wagner wagon and we ask are we as bad now as the Glenn Roeder days! You might not be surprised by the results! After a great article in My Football Writers, we ask are we too entitled as Norwich fans? Spoilt by the days of Stringer, Walker, Lambert and Farke? And it's t...

3 games since we last recorded and not a win to celebrate! We still don't have our Old Norwich back! After the international break we face Sheff Utd, Blackburn and Middlesbrough in our next 4 games! Not sure we really agree with Wagner that the play offs will be a more exciting way to get promoted - just ask the Burnley fans! And our 'Greatest City' countdown returns - we back talking the best str...

Marvellous comeback win over Millwall and into the play off places! Seems like Wagner's work is paying off for City. And we pay tribute to Robert Chase - former club chairman - who passed away last week. Get in touch on Facebook or Twitter anytime - @JohnCushing_  @PeterCushing1 Learn more about your ad choices.

What. A. Strike. Incredible. But we've been here before and it seems that we're getting slightly carried away. We beat Birmingham a poor team. With a wonder goal that changed everything. Without it? Who knows? John thinks the whole feeling of the club at the moment is a bit desperate. Desperate to to be loved. Desperate for it to work. Desperate for Wagner to be the one. Aren't we kidding ourselve...

After we crashed back to earth and out of the play offs with a bump against Burnley, it seems pretty clear that we need to improve our home form and quickly! With 5 games coming up for the rest of the shortest month of the year we have to win 4 or 5 of them if we're going to be in the play off mix this season (and also because they're clubs in the bottom half of the table!)  David Wagner has a cle...

2 league games, twice scoring 4 goals, back in the top 6? Could it have gone any better for David Wagner replacing Dean Smith at Carrow Road? Not sure even Stuart Webber would've have dreamt two away wins and now another fortnight to work together as a team before the big boys of Burnley come into town! This episode 36 of the New Old Norwich - and after a World Cup, Christmas, Sackings hiatus - th...

"Don't look too far ahead" says the new manager of Norwich City David Wagner - a sort of coming home for the ex-Huddersfield boss, who's once again teaming up with Stuart Webber and others to try and get a Championship club back into the Premier League. But without a win in 4 and yet another home defeat against Blackburn in the FA Cup at the weekend, where's the first win coming from and how? We l...

We called for it two months ago, and finally the axe has been wielded by Webber. Dean Smith has gone with Norwich City still aiming for promotion this season despite being nearer the bottom 3 than the top 2! In this emergency edition of the podcast, we discuss the past 12 months, review the candidate list and ask what's next for Stuart Webber and our Carrow Rd Club. Oh and Happy New Year (hopefull...

Another special this week, looking back at the win over the Swans obviously, ahead to Blackburn and a quick word about England. But we run through some real famous Festive City treats - or not! Looking back at some Boxing Day wins and defeats. Tell us yours - get in touch via Facebook or Twitter - JohnCushing_ or PeterCushing1 In the meantime may we wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy 'Cit...

The REAL football is back this weekend with the Championship and Norwich face a trip to Swansea. But where do we stand right now for the rest of the season? And how many England players have played for Norwich City? Does it count if it was before or after when they were at Carrow Road? We discuss the best of the City players who've graced the three lions over the years in our England Norwich City...

It's Qatar 2022 and the World Cup is in full swing - which means Norwich City isn't! We've the latest news from City, but spend the time counting down our top eight Wingers for Norwich City - with a few number 10s in their too! What a feast we were treated too in the 80s and 90s - are we right to leave out Darren Eadie? Get in touch on Facebook or twitter anytime! Track us down @johncushing_ or @P...

Forget Dean Smith for a minute or that latest defeat to Middlesbrough... Everyone's talking about the Mark and Mike Attanasio interview that Talk Norwich City carried out this week - well done chaps! We review it - in full! And Dad is optimistic once again! 'Come on Norwich!' Let us know what you think - find John Cushing & Peter Cushing on twitter and Facebook! Learn more about your ad choices. V...

They used to say a day's a long time in politics, but it seems the same for football as the most pessimistic Norwich fan I know and love as reversed his decision about Dean Smith! After 7 points from 9, Dad (@PeterCushing1) says he's feeling positive and hopeful for City as we approach the last game against Middlesbrough before the World Cup. I simply can't believe it and entirely disagree! (@john...

During this podcast, Peter Cushing looks back at the stats from 17 games in after relegation under the Neils - Alex and Adams. With the annual report showing some worrying stats in it too, he looks at what happened after the Nigel Worthington relegation. Have a listen but let us tell you it's not looking good for Dean Smith or Norwich City. So we think it's now time to act, time to hear from Mark...

Nearly half way through the month and nearly halfway through the 8 matches, where are City really in this season's Championship? We look ahead before Watford, Luton, Sheff Utd and Burnley to come in the next fortnight. And with Peters, Crook & Phelan can Jeremy Goss force his way into our greatest list? Have your say on Facebook or twitter anytime! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastch...

8 games to come in October - 5 away and 3 at home - with second placed Norwich City unbeaten in their last 8 games, with 7 wins and only 2 defeats all season. What's there to worry about? Where was the flowing football against West Brom and Bristol City? Even Deano admitted it wasn't good enough in front of the Carrow Rd faithful!  The next month after this strangely timed international break (oh...

We said they were crucial 4 days - 2 home games - and six stupendous points! Well done Dean Smith, Josh Sargent, and Liam Gibbs to name just a few! We review Millwall and Huddersfield ahead of the Sunderland game! And as Dad (Peter Cushing) is a City shareholder (!!!) he reveals the plans to release more shares when American Mark Attanasio arrives - and he gets our vote! This is the new Old Norwic...

It's early days, it's August, remember Farke - yep we get it but sitting rock bottom of the Championship the next 4 days with 2 homes games against Huddersfield and Millwall seem pretty crucial! As Dad correctly highlights the club isn't in the same position now - off the field there's uncertainty about the future and on it there doesn't seem to be a clear way of playing? And it's episode 24 of th...

Here we go again then - another season full of hope and optimism!  We're ready, your ready but we're not sure the team's ready!  Find out our pre-season predictions ahead of the Cardiff City match on Saturday back in the Championship once again! And after we confirmed, Gunn Culverhouse Butterworth Bruce & Bowen into the starting XI for the Greatest ever City side we start the mulling over on centr...

Anything seems possible on Fixtures Release Day - but reminder to self we are now in the Championship and need to focus on the likes of Blackburn and Middlesborough not Brighton and Man Utd! But Cardiff and Wigan first up isn't too bad - but as Dad says we have to play everyone twice! All being well! And what impact will the World Cup have - and starting the season on July 30th a long month before...

He's a Premier League and Championship performer, and someone who can win a ball in midfield and be good in either box. To us City fans, the first new summer signing Isaac Hayden could well be Zinedine Zidane if he plays like that! We've everything crossed! Can Norwich really attract an American investor? And with managers, keeper and central defenders chosen - it's time to look at our greatest ev...

Awful way to end the season, that's let's be honest as been as painful if not more so than our previous 4 relegations under in 1995, ten years later with Worthy, and more recently Hughton, Neil and Farke. What next? Automatic return doesn't feel very likely with this squad of players and what about the manager? The Performance Director? The club itself and the owners? Big questions for a big summe...

The penultimate match of the season against Wolves finally ended a run of 5 straight defeats, but should Pukki have scored more to seal a final Premier League away win? With Angus Gunn back in goal against Wolves and Leicester, we ask is he really the future for City? Is he a Kasper Schmeichel or a Paul Dalglish? And it's Episode 19 and we're onto the greatest City central defenders shortlist ......

Off the pitch the fans are revolting literally and Stuart Webber continues to wage war - this time with the local newspapers. On the pitch its 4 straight defeats again! 3 games to go before this miserable season ends again. We review the latest ructions at Carrow Road while also look back at some of the glory days. We confirm our greatest goalkeepers and start the case for the defence, including t...
