    Remember this game well as me and @o-randy-hunt got started on by a 15 year old Norwich fan with terrible glasses walking down Floyd road. He made a right spectacle of himself.

    Good job Simon Church wasn't about or we'd have the boys father on here again!

    Fulham will end up back in the 4th division

    My favourite away game, seen some cracking games there (the 3-1 & 4-0 ones spring to mind) and had a couple of good nights out too.

    Both Norwich and Fulham are decent middling clubs like ours. They support their local team while others around them follow Man Utd and Liverpool.

    People who hate either of them and get tearful over a bit of banter need to get over themselves.

    Reserve your vitriol for the Sky favourites and their plastic fans who f**k it up for everyone else (and Millwall).

    I seem to recall us singing it a few times during our L1 promotion season to the likes of Bournemouth, Yeovil, Orient etc....................

    Norwich away was a nightmare. We were 2up.

    There fans are loud and proud but also knobheads which cancels it out.

    And they have those clapper things, which do not belong at any football ground, ever!!

    A mate from uni is a Norwich fan. The stick i've been getting for the past 3 years has been unbelievable!

    Looking forward to the trip up there next year!

    At least there will be some decent tucker on offer for those who make the trip.

    My nan used to live up there in her latter years cos her daughter thought it best for her to leave Lee and to move closer to where she lived.
    My nan liked Norfolk but never could stand the Norwich fans.
    I remember walking in to a pub with her in the centre of Norwich, it was packed full of Norwich fans who were watching the Ipswich v Norwich derby. Ipswich scored and she started celebrating just to wind them up. We had to get out of there pretty sharpish as it was clear that though they weren't going to do anything to her they might kick my head in just for being with her.

    I remember when we were playing at The Hawthorns, already promoted singing that joyfully to the Baggies….

    I cannot for the life of me summon up any animosity towards Norwich fans. It's Norwich ffs!

    Norwich and Fulham are in very different positions.

    Norwich don't have a mega-bucks owner so - despite the parachute money - are going to seriously feel the effects of relegation financially.

    People need to remember that they are going to be paying Premiership wages on a Championship income so the parachute payments basically cover that shortfall - but you are still left with a big problem of disaffected players on big wages hanging around the squad.

    Fulham are owned by a mega-bucks owner, and though I would dearly love to see them back in League Two that is not going to happen and he will give them more than enough cash to get out of the Championship - he has no choice because he will lose his dough otherwise.

    On the plus side for us they are two cracking away trips, certainly way better than Doncaster and Barnsley.

    Still a pretty stupid thing to do

    I remember the Sheff Wed fans chanting delight at our demise when we were relegated from the Premiership back in 1998/99 season. Soon after that they plummeted down a couple of divisions and of course we had our great spell in the premiership under Curbs. After hearing their fans wailing how a great team like theirs should not be in the third division, I posted a message on one of their boards saying in effect what goes around comes around. The abuse that came back was heart warming.

    I remember us singing it to Millwall in a preseason friendly, safe in the knowledge that the recent Dowie appointment and Hasselbaink signings would keep us in the premiership for many moons to come.

    I nearly gave you a flag there, three abusive words in one sentence :-)

    We did I think. Either that or 4-0 (that might just be nostalgia and old age distorting things in my head though). Hasselbaink scored the first and El Karkouri blasted in a free kick towards the end is all else I remember.

    Reserve your vitriol for the Sky favourites and their plastic fans who f**k it up for everyone else (and Millwall).

    this times 1000000. Much rather would have a conversation about football with a Norwich/Fulham/proper fan of their local team (even Millwall or Palace fans) than some plastic Chelski/Manu/Gooner/Liverpool fan who wouldn't even be able to tell you what borough their ground was in.

    Although it was quite funny that the owner of the worst team in the NFL managed to turn Fulham into one of the worst teams in the Premier League almost overnight.

    Agree re Norwich. Good club with excellent local support.

    Not sure I can class Fulham as a proper team though. Don't think I've ever met a Fulham fan.

    And that statute of Wacko Jacko was cringeworthy...

    Can't blame the fans for that though.
