The NCFC 'best times' since I've followed them have been in three broad sections
85-93
Milk Cup, Div 2 title, three top five finishes, two FA Cup semis and Europe. Our most successful ever period.
01-05
Play-offs, Div 1 title, last gasp rally in the Prem. A relief after many years of dross
09-present
League 1 title, challenging for promotion to Prem. Bouncing back from rock bottom.
Are we currently in the best period to be a Norwich fan? SiH is spot an about the sense of community. We've never had two back to back seasons as good and we've come back from the depths.
The period from 85 to 93 was sustained excellence. We genuinely were one of the best sides in the country - so, in terms of pride and profile, it is unmatched.
But there IS something about our current lot that makes it feel almost as good.
