My Favourite Norwich managers (NCFC) - Cardiff Canary, Mar 2, 04:45:45

  - Sorry I missed your tenure of NCFC best of compiler (NCFC) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Mar 2, 11:27:53
    - Fair. The tenure is jealously guarded and long standing. (n/m) (NCFC) - APB, Mar 2, 11:54:50
  - I should give more credit to Worthington (NCFC) - APB, Mar 2, 10:18:00

    - And also Brown and Stringer (NCFC) - APB, Mar 2, 10:36:32
      - Stringer's football was so good (NCFC) - jamesward, Mar 2, 10:38:34
