The OTB podcast now writes words too! 😮 We’ve waited until the end of the season (the perfect time) to launch a Substack. Our first article is (the excellent) @dan_brigham doling out #ncfc season awards. Please subscribe, share, and all the rest! 💚💛 open.substack.com/pub/otbnorwich…

It’s the OTB Season End Show-Stopper 🎉 Rounding off the good (Big Phil, Toure, Tony Gary), the bad (Sargent, Nunez, Manning) & the ugly (our pre-season predictions) with @Ryan_Livermore, @zoevfmorgan & @dan_brigham at the end of a mad, mad year #ncfc 🎧 pod.fo/e/40df36

@oro7777777 @NCFCZeb I’ve seen that doing the rounds, but they definitely have. Six times in the last ten years in the Championship in fact 😅

@ncfcnumbers @NCFCZeb Don’t think anyone’s even stayed up from that position?

Before this season, no EFL team in the last 40 years with fewer than ten points from their first 15 games had finished in the top half or got 60+ points. Philippe Clement took over Norwich City with nine points from 15 games and has finished in 9th with 65 points #ncfc 🔰🇧🇪

Mohamed Toure has scored ten goals for Norwich City in his first 12 appearances. He's got to double figures faster than any other Canaries player in the last 67 years, since Terry Bly in 1959 #ncfc 🔰

@CGoreham @RikkiBarnes1 Go well Chris!

@ncfcnumbers @RikkiBarnes1 *adds it to commentary notes* (with a credit of course…

@ncfcnumbers @CGoreham when did Norwich last go a season without a 0-0?

@Jparker7398 Great to hear Jonathan, welcome aboard! 🫡

Nice hearing @ncfcnumbers on the Scrimmage, helped me discover another enjoyable Ncfc podcast, involving a few people I already follow on here.

@stukulele It won’t be until the start of the new season (let’s say early August), so you can stare at it for a few months if you like!

@ncfcnumbers What's the deadline? I need to sit and stare at my list for a few days.

@Will01322714 It all got a bit complicated having to ask for email addresses so I went down the anonymous route. If you DM me your email address Will (and let me know who your #1 was so I can be sure which one you are) then I’ll send them over.

@ncfcnumbers I have completed, but assumed would get an email confirming my choices... now have to try and remember - so prob 40 players could be in my 25 when i discuss with my mates!

@sharemyyear @TalkNorwichCity That’s good stuff Simon! So win on Saturday and we’re one point short…

One for @ncfcnumbers & @TalkNorwichCity. Over the previous 10 years (exc this year) the average number of points to finish 8th, is 69, with 60 goals scored. Norwich currently have 65 points, 62 goals (9th). Derby in 8th have 69. So that’s the absolute minimum next year #ncfc

🚨 POD ALERT 🚨 @dan_brigham, @zoevfmorgan and I are joined by the delightful @cjsouthwell1902! We ask if Norwich are play-off ready, if Kenny would get in our all-time XI’s, and what the hell is up with Blyth services. A true treat. 💛💚 #NCFC 💚💛 pod.fo/e/4085ec

Thank you to the guys for having me on, allowing me to explain why Big Phil’s masterminded the best EFL turnaround of the last 40 years, and letting me give this thing a push 👉 bit.ly/NCFCGreatest

We’ll be counting down the top [number TBD] players on the OTB podcast throughout next season until we get to your no.1. So naturally if you’ve taken the time to vote, it’d be silly not to subscribe to OTB at the same time, right? podfollow.com/otb-a-norwich-…

Kenny McLean is the first Norwich City player other than Teemu Pukki and Josh Sargent to score a Norwich City penalty at Carrow Road for five-and-a-half years, since Mario Vrancic v Coventry in November 2020 (shootouts excluded) #ncfc 🔰

Twists, late surprises, end of season party vibes. And that’s just this week’s OTB pod 🥳 @Ryan_Livermore, @zoevfmorgan, @dan_brigham and I hail Toure, get the Mo v Makama debate going, anoint Liam Giggs & solve the ChatGPT Get Banged mystery #ncfc 🎧 podfollow.com/1890848253

@TomChambers1 They have not! Add that one to the growing list of records for our boy ✅

@ncfcnumbers Has a January signing ever scored 2 hat tricks for Norwich in the same season in which they’ve signed? #NCFC

@BTBPodcastNCFC @meds89 Wish I could help but I’ve absolutely no idea on that one folks 😅 I’ll just use Chris’ answer as a cop out and say ‘yes’.

@meds89 @ncfcnumbers Perhaps I should’ve said in the modern era lol

@ncfcnumbers has there ever been a Norwich player score without a name or number on his back before today? 🧐 #ncfc #otbc

@holmes765 Hi Ian, I can’t seem to find that sorry! Do you have a link to help me identify it please, and I’ll have a look.

@ncfcnumbers Hi Steve, I use the Podcast App - Podcast Player and it's not on there. Any help would be welcome. Thanks.

It’s a good week to leave things in the past…and On The Ball is no more, it’s now OTB all the way 🙌 So download, subscribe and listen to @Ryan_Livermore, @dan_brigham, @zoevfmorgan and I moan about Saturday’s referee and ask if Nunez is ok hun 🎧 #ncfc podfollow.com/1890848253
