Player ratings17 Aug 2026
Jovon Makama runs at them all day
Successful dribbles: 27. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Norwich City turn down Stoke City for Lucien Mahovo
The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.
Squad17 Aug 2026
Tempers go at Norwich City
Pelle Mattsson was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.
Boardroom17 Aug 2026
Graduation day at Norwich City
4 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Words at Norwich City training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Dylan Jones is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.
The terraces17 Aug 2026
The crowd has taken to Kellen Fisher
At 22 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

One of our own: Liam Carter joins the Norwich City first team
Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Liam Carter is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.
Market17 Aug 2026
Norwich City promote Jonathan Atkinson from within
The academy exists for exactly this morning. Jonathan Atkinson has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

One of our own: Mark Jackson joins the Norwich City first team
Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Mark Jackson is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.
