We are Premier League, say we are .....
A fantastic couple of seasons under Stuart Webber, Daniel Farke and the German influence.
Wages capped, free and minimal fee transfers, academy players occupying 25-30% of the starting lineup, a back line under 24 years of age.
Proof you can achieve the unthinkable as a very small club without big names, big money and big fuss.
Yes we will seesaw but will remain financially sound. I salute and adore my beloved NORWICH CITY FC.

Had the pleasure of meeting Mike Bushell on holiday in Lanzarote, he's a Leeds fan and he was staying in our hotel. Watched the Leeds /Sheffield Wednesday game in a bar, he was in and he jumped out of his seat when Leeds scored. Most of our crowd (wife's brothers) are Leeds fans, after karaoke in the Hotel (and several beers) Mike joined us in a rendition of 'Marching On Together' at the end of the evening........shame the subsequent results went pear-shaped.
Still a chance in the play-offs but I don`t fancy it unless the goal famine changes. Good luck to Sheffield United and Norwich, I have to grudgingly admit they've deserved it, particularly the Blades who kept winning matches when it mattered.
I don’t disagree that the recent form has been a disaster but even if they had won all three games they’d only be in second place and favourites to finish second (although not guaranteed; still needing a win to be certain). Had they beaten Norwich and Sheffield Utd at Elland Road, they’d already be promoted and favourited to finish top.
Losing both of those matches was where the real damage was done!
