Will Norwich City have the sinking feeling next season?
Canaries crushed: We launch countdown to Norwich City relegation
Friday, June 17, 2011
5:38 PM
Lets be avenya! Tonight the Evening Star launches a valuable new service to all our readers.
“Off the Boil City” is a countdown clock recording the days until the Canaries regain their rightful place in the football hierarchy – The Championship.
And we’re sure that Town fans will be Delia-lighted to pass the old enemy coming up if our new manager takes his Jewells up to the Premiership next season.
The clock starts now and gets going in earnest in August. You can see it on the homepage of our sports section.
The only question is, of course, when the sands of time will run out for Norwich City.
Will they be relegated by Easter . . . or will they carry on in limbo like this year’s relegated teams until the last match of the season. Time will tell.

Well said canaryted. Years ago this paper fought for better relations between the two sets of fans, now it is just gutter press. I really want to see Ipswich Promoted this season so we can face your boys in the Premiership.

Premier League Budgie. I fully agree with your comments, At the moment I am embarrassed to be associated with Ipswich Town and the way the team building is going the only way we will be playing you in 2012-2013 is if you get relegated as we won't be going up. Just wish I was born in Norwich.

I note with some disappointment, and no little embarrasment, the Relegation Countdown Clock which has now appeared on the Evening Star websites sports pages. I think I speak for the vast majority of Ipswich Town fans in saying that it does the reputation of the club and its fans no favours (and doubtless, a number of them have probably already expressed the same thoughts). The reaction to this has been uniformally negative- I've yet to see a comment on any of the regular websitestwitter to indicate otherwise. Whilst I'm sure the intention is to provide light-hearted fun, it misjudges the general mood of the supporters at this time. Norwich winning promotion merely highlighted the need for our own club to "get its house in order" first, before we can reasonably start to try and find reasons to laugh at those up the road. They will provide plenty of scope for that in their own way, given time.

Think the wave of comments against this idea is sufficent to remove the countdown clock, it's obvious that Norwich are planning to stay up with the excellent signings they have made, they already have a decent side having suffered 2 heavy defeats against them they were scoring against us for fun. Please do us a favour and remove.

I cannot even begin to describe how embarrassing this is, and insulting to Ipswich Town and it’s fans. What cretin’s idea was it? This is the stuff of the obsessed, jealous underdog: something that Norwich would run on us if it was the other way around; something that Scotland fans would do to air their Anglophobic obsession with the English. They may be a league higher right now, but we are better than Norwich. We have no inferiority complex about them. We are not jealous. Ipswich fans are better than this rubbish; the EADT and it’s moron journos are not. This “article” makes Ipswich out as the obsessive, small-minded underdog.

Despite being born in Norfolk (I wasn't consulted!) I've always been an Ipswich supporter.

Would it not be better to encourage us to believe that we are going to join the Canaries in the top division, where both teams belong? Sour grapes after the main course, anyone?

What a class piece of journalism from the "Green'Uns with envy" of the "sitting in the Premiership Pink'Uns". It is drivel such as this, along with other online exchanges making increasingly derogatory comments that are ruining the long-standing competitive sporting rivalry between the supporters and teams that's enjoyed on and off the pitch. From my experience, most supporters would wish both sides to be in the same division in order to enjoy the derby matches! There'll be something missing next season without them. But, all fans would also want their team to win both and to finish above the other in the league, if only by one place, for the bragging rights for another year. Come on Green'Un, drag yourself out of the gutter and do some positive reporting on your team to get the fans motivated to get another East Anglian side into the Premership, where they both belong.
