    Congrats on your promotion. It will be fun to see A.N. at CR again.

    We've been to Norwich lots of times over the years, usually staying at Clacton with relatives for weekends, and always enjoyed the matches and the craic.
    We stayed in Clacton on our way to Wembley in '85, so we travelled to Wembley with hordes of Canaries . . . . and even (accidently) parked in the Norwich end :cheesy:

    Do your younger fans know about the Friendship Trophy? and do they actually care?
    I guess we older guys, the ones old enough to have been at Wembley that day, still have some connection though it may have eroded over the years.

    Some will 'cos we've told them, but not many, though it'll be mentioned in the press when we play (probably).

    Canary Dave used to talk about it on his occasional visits to Sunderland :emoticon-0148-yes:
    I was only able to have a pint with him on one visit, but I'm glad that I did :emoticon-0105-wink:

    Having a glance at the Championship sides with Wigan Rotherham and Sunderland joining us .
    Watford and Burnley too, without coming across as too arrogant there doesn't look like that much of a threat .
    Forest or Huddersfield could be dangerous.

    Sunderland may pull off a double promotion like Leicester Saints and Norwich a few years ago.
