Well...what were we worried about? An On The Ball Norwich City Podcast to enjoy about a game worth remembering, as the Canaries got (another) one over their old rivals Ipswich Town with a 1-0 win on Saturday.
A panel of Steve Sanders (aka NCFC Numbers), Dan Brigham, Zoe Morgan and Ryan Livermore relive the supercharged atmosphere on a memorable day at Carrow Road, sing the praises of free-kick hero Marcelino Nunez, laud Wagner's grown-up tactics, and mention the 15-year run quite a lot.
Plus, the poor man's Paul Lambert and the Ben Pearson tribute act, crying and booing through an enjoyable game of football, and Ryan's quiz goes all Film 2009. Post-derby day joy from beginning to end!

Let's be fair, that wasn't what we'd hoped for. The On The Ball Norwich City Podcast takes stock at the halfway stage of the play-off semi-final between Norwich City and Leeds United, with no goals to speak of.
That didn't stop Steve Sanders (aka NCFC Numbers), Dan Brigham and Zoe Morgan from having plenty to discuss though, with the trio soaking up another electric Carrow Road atmosphere, lauding the return of Dimi and the continued excellence of Nunez, and sweating on the fitness of the probably-absolutely-fine (according to David Wagner's post-match assessment) Josh Sargent.
Plus curries, Call The Midwife slander, other clubs' owners taking our sage advice, and the reasons why we're actually going to bloody do it and Elland Road and make it to Wembley. OTBC!

#156 A tight podcast on a tight 90

Call off the trepidation - the top six spot is booked and the On The Ball Norwich City Podcast can start looking ahead to a date with the ex, as Daniel Farke arrives with Leeds on Sunday for a play-off semi-final.
Steve Sanders (aka NCFC Numbers), Dave Powles and Connor Southwell try and work out what sort of position the Canaries will need to be in heading to Elland Road, attempt to care more about Norwich City's defeat at Birmingham more than David Wagner, and look back at the topsy-turvy campaign that's led us to here.
Plus, referees kissing the badge, pitch invasions, selflessly giving up a ticket, and a healthy dollop of impromptu 2010s NCFC player nostalgia.

#155 A double date with Daniel

You will hear no presumptions made on this penultimate/not-penultimate On The Ball Norwich City Podcast for 2023/24. That's because the Canaries are nearly in the play-offs but not quite rubber stamped yet - with a 2-2 draw with Swansea at the weekend, along with Hull's draw with Ipswich, meaning that only an eight-goal swing in Hull's favour would see Norwich City drop out of the top six.
Steve Sanders (aka NCFC Numbers), Dan Brigham and Ryan Livermore ensure not to break any mirrors or walk under any ladders, as the panel once again pay homage to the magnificence of Gabriel Sara, try and remember the five shots of Duffy, and at least allow Sydney van Hooijdonk more air time than he gets game time.
Plus, Kenny wins player of the season and immediately slips into apology mode, finding ways to avoid next Saturday's game, and a lot of agonising noises over answers in Ryan Livermore's player-of-the-year quiz.

#154 Don't say 'we made it' yet...

It's eight and out for the Canaries, as the On The Ball Norwich City Podcast assesses the game that ended the winning run at Carrow Road, the 1-1 draw with Bristol City.
Steve Sanders (aka NCFC Numbers) bravely soldiers through cold with Dan Brigham and Dave Freezer, as the panel give overdue praise in the direction of Gunn Jr, question the timing of that Sainz run, get the abacuses out to work out what Norwich City need to nail down a top-six spot, and talk through the impact on fans of the new Sky Sports EFL deal.  
Plus, Allan Russell meets Russell Allan, dreaming of Westy on the pitch at Wembley, why warmth equals wins, and the best anecdote involving Mark Barham and a tortoise you'll hear all season... Get it while it's hot!
