My Norwich connection comes from my folks. Even though I was born here, all of my relatives with the exception of my parents and sister still live there. Mum is from Drayton, Dad from up near Mousehold. I've got relatives all over the place there - Sprowston, Costessey, Dereham, etc. Two of my cousins are season ticket holders in the River End too.

So really, I had no choice but to support Norwich. I have been to a few games whenever I get the chance, and even a few from when they were in the Premiership. I roadtripped it from Norwich to Sheffield in 1999 for an FA Cup third round match, which we lost miserably 4-1, but it was a lot of fun. It sure is hard to hide a bright yellow collar under your jacket when walking the mean streets of Sheffield.

All of that being said, I believe that I read somewhere on here that diane_phaneuf has a Norwich connection also.

Norwich signed Canadian striker Simeon Jackson a few weeks ago, even more reason to support them!
