There are other reasons. I was born near Leicester, moved around a fair bit as a child, but family roots are in Norfolk, and when I was young I often went to Carrow Road with my grandmother, so have been a Norwich City supporter ever since a very young age. With our showing this year in the championship, it's hardly glory hunting (although the 1993-4 UEFA cup season may suggest otherwise 
)
Admittedly we did have some rather dodgy strikers in the mid-late 80s (you know who you are
)

Having lived in central London for years, the amount of so called Man U fans that would fill the pub (when they had a chance of winning
) used to drive me mad! 
Think we'll be taking some points off the tractor boys next season!

Do you still go?
I am a season ticket holder for 17 years, now go with my son who is 7 so I do not go away any more, but give it a couple of years and he will be with me on the train to Portman Road!

Well what can I say? My dad has been a season ticket holder for over 32yrs. I virtually popped out wearing a blue and white hat and scarf!!
Mind you, I was seriously upset to see my piggy friends get relegated this weekend and then to see W@nker Warnock leave today........
Thirsty? Why not try BLADES ALE. Its very bitter, doesnt travel well, but it goes down a treat!

Robert - Not as often as I'd like since I moved to Berkshire, only made it to a couple of games this season (one of which was the dismal penalty shoot out at Vale Park 
) Still like to get along when I have the chance.

Anyway all dad's family are from Newcastle, mum and hubby both went to uni in Newcastle so that's why I support them.

Dont know if you post on Norwich City Football Club Fans Community - Wrath of the Barclay but if you dont you should give it a try.
It is similar to scoobynet, full of irony, attitude, wisdom and humour. Give it a look.

I saw the light when I moved to Newcastle all those years ago. I may have moved away since but I still support them.

I don't support or like football but I do own a Birmingham City top. The reason I brought the top was because I live near to the Aston Villa ground and have lots of Villa fans parking on our street and tend to wear the top to clean my car on match days. Upsets quite a few people and makes my life all the more interesting

There's only one reason to support a football team, and that's where you were born!

Haven't got a clue about footie but my old man supports Aston Villa.
Its his 65th on Sunday and I've got a card signed by all the players and the manager. Should make his day with any luck

Westham United - season ticket holder.
I grew up in the road where their training ground is, always used to play down there as a kid, get the players autogrpahs, watch Billy Bonds tear up the road in his brown/bronze XJS. A few of the lads in the street got on well with the Groundsman and we used to help him out in the holidays, collecting the ***** from roof of the indoor pitch, used to let us a keep a few of them aswell. We was also allowed to drive the tractor around one of the back fields good old days.
