Stadium Norwich. The reverse fixture at Molineux on the opening day of the season was a tight, close game, decided by a Dave Edwards header. There was good attacking football from both teams. Fans of my age would remember the great Albion side of the late 70s and early 80s and with the match being close to the anniversary of the sad passing of Cyrille Regis's sad passing, the club used this match to honour that team before kick off. 4.
We came into this game in good form but both sides fancied themselves in a match that always throws up surprises. It was a great day out. Great Yarmouth is not far away on the coast so why not make a weekend of it? Built over an short period of 82 days, Carrow Road was the second largest construction job in Norwich since the Castle, and thus was jokingly dubbed, “The eight wonder of the world”. The Club I found to be particularly friendly and relaxed. As a Blues fan living near Nottingham, I am 126 miles from Norwich. The walk back to the car was uneventful, and having a spot close to the front of the car park meant I was quickly on the road home. In fact since Saints and Norwich were both in League One. I continued my journey home the following morning after a hearty breakfast and arrived home at midday. I hadn't been to Carrow Road for a good few years now. Sportspark has Norfolk's tallest indoor climbing wall, two 25m swimming pools, the Soccerpark, athletics track and our two impressive indoor arenas.
This was probably my 5th or 6th trip to Carrow Road which I enjoy visiting as it usually has a good atmosphere. So it is advisable to comply with the steward requests, although I did find it all rather annoying'. And so it's back to the drawing board for the Reds. Also The Wildman on Bedford Street, and The Lamb Inn near the market with its massive beer garden are worth a mention. When we did get back to the car it was a very easy and quick drive away and three-hour trip back to the south coast. After the match the car park is well marshalled with two streams of cars exiting it, so normally you are not held up for too long. This resulted in a lot of taunting from the away fans. The atmosphere was okay and I had no problem with the stewards etc. Carrow Road is a high grade ground with an impressive presence. We decided to drive and apart from various roadworks it was very straightforward. The players actually enter via the away gate, which is quite rare. Surprisingly (although I didn't have one) I was told that the pies weren't great. David Westgate adds; 'The corner in-fill between the Barclay Stand and the Geoffrey Watling City Stand is affectionately known to Norwich fans as the "Snake Pit!". When we did leave we walked back round to the players entrance where the team bus was waiting. Norwich won 3-2 and were worth their win. The whole atmosphere outside the ground is positive and easygoing. Norwich took the lead just before half time with a very good move from defence to attack and ending with Murphy drilling the ball home from just inside the box.
The stewards were fine and I had a chicken balti pie and a coffee which warmed me up on a wet day. What you did before the game pub/chippy…. There is also a shopping and leisure complex known as “The Riverside” a little further along which has a ever reliable Wetherspoons. The 80 year span without us beating them on their home soil continues. Although Barnsley created a few chances their finishing was very poor and I don't think any player had their scoring boots on. The camera’s were taking pictures of us, on this splendid day.
One fantastic thing which happened before the game was the club welcomed a special guest onto the pitch to deliver the match ball. You do get there … eventually! Very much traffic free. Plenty of home fans around and all friendly. However Nickes.Com can put together your perfect dream trip to see Real vs Atlético live! This led to our fans singing 'Sit down, if you hate Wednesday' instead of the usual 'Stand up, if you hate Wednesday' and 'Sit down, stand up, which did not go down too well with the stewards who in my mind very harshly ejected one supporter from the stadium.

There was plenty of banter flying between ourselves and the fans in the Barclay End.
Comment on the game itself, atmosphere, stewards, pies, toilets etc.. Three kiosks open for food, a special match pie (steak and a local ale) was on, so minimal queuing whilst the other earlyish arrivals watched the lunchtime Premiership match. Allow plenty of time and just trundle along. Comment on getting away from the ground after the game: Oh that was easy………..a 30 minute walk up the hill to my hotel. I wouldn't want to pay another £45 for that view and as a result I doubt I'll be heading back except for an important end of season game. I found the County Hall car park easily (and was only charged £3 instead of the advertised £4). Not for the first time, Blues got in the way of a good day on the drink by losing 3-1.

A boat out on the Norfolk Broads, a couple of nights in a Riverside hotel in Norwich, just 10 minutes walk from the ground plus some local real ale – and a match to watch with our beloved Watford…..

There was quite a fair crowd of Norwich fans as we made our way to the ground but the atmosphere was very friendly and no hassle. Not much! As Wolves fans, we're somewhat used to having our dreams crushed….but there is a pace and quality to this current squad that exceeds anything we have been able to put-together at this level previously. I wasn't the best game. The market was lively and the cathedral an impressive piece of architecture.
It was getting busy when I parked at 1pm, so I would advise you to get there early. Inside a few familiar Wolves faces were already in situ but the place felt more like a family restaurant than a boozer. Final Score: Norwich City 1 Ipswich Town 1.

It is never a quick journey to Norwich, as there is little motorway. This was my second trip to Carrow Road and enjoyed my first trip there. Dave a visiting Birmingham City fan adds; 'In the City Centre then the pick of the pubs for me was the aptly named St Andrews Brewhouse which brews its own range of beers and ciders. The second half exploded into life however. It made for quite a small, crowded concourse, but the fact that you’re all huddled together means you can generate a bit of noise. If you ignore all those wonderful pubs it should take you no more than 10 minutes to walk to the ground. I went by supporters coach which parked up near to the stadium. 3.
