First side since our good selves to clinch back to back promotions into the top flight.

What will the rags do now???

Looking forward to going to their ground next season,,, will be a top away day out.

They'll have all that support at the swamp next season...They'll feel at home there.

So they will be playing both games at home then.,,,,or at least it will feel like it.

...welll sort of but...most of the rags fans will probably live nearer to Carrow Road than they do.

Same.

First thing I thought when I saw they had gone up, cracking away day!

"Let's be having you!"

Happy about this, also genuinely hope QPR go up too

I remember Norwich playing in the UEFA Cup against Inter Milan when i was at uni....it's been a looooong time since they were in the top flight. Great stuff.

Well done Norwich. I look forward to hearing;

Your sister is your mother
Your uncle is your brother
You all f**k one another
The Norwich family

Der der der der, clap clap, der der der der, clap clap.....

2005?

Got to give credit to any team who can chain promotions - first in League One and then second in the Championship. They started the League One season with a 7-1 home loss to Colchester too. Massive turn around from Lambert over the past 18 months.

Blimey...I wish....nah must've been like 1993-1994

yep...here you go

Bayern Munich vs Norwich City was a 1993–94 UEFA Cup second round, first leg match, played on 20 October 1993. The match finished Bayern Munich 1 Norwich City 2.

The match, "an apparent mismatch",[1] was a huge upset in European football; it has been described as "the pinnacle of Norwich City's history" and it was the only defeat ever inflicted by a British club on Bayern Munich in their Olympic stadium.[2] That it was Norwich that inflicted the defeat was startling: Norwich were "mere babes at this level",[3] and, according to Norwich player Jeremy Goss, "There's no doubt Bayern assumed it would be easy".[4]

The second leg was played on 3 November 1993 and was drawn 1–1, meaning that Norwich won the tie 3–2 on aggregate. They went on to be defeated by eventual champions Inter Milan in the third round.[5][6]

Their last top flight appearance was 2004-05 though.

Dean Ashton? Delias pitch rant?

Yep. And Robbie Fowler's mishit shot that trickled over the line.

Did Willo Flood score against them when they were up last? I think so.. anyway, I'm glad themselves and QPR (probably) are coming up. I'd also like to see Cardiff do it.

Yes, he certainly did in the Home match.

ah....ok....maybe I do! I was obviously having quite a good time back then!

We are guarenteed to get these boys on a Wednesday the week before christmas or some other horrible time to travel down!

I'm certain that our favourite Son...Kippax will be highly fuclin delighted.

Both decent clubs and good away days. I ran a hostel in Great yarmouth for a summer and found the norfolk people to be very passionate about their club, but very good humoured and friendly.

Ideally would have liked leeds to come up as well but anyone but reading would do me from the 4.
