On The Ball - A show about Norwich City – Détails, épisodes et analyse

The On The Ball podcast returns from the international break to find Norwich City still hovering outside the Championship play-offs after a 1-1 draw at Stoke City. Obviously, that's not the most momentous result of the season, so once host Steve Sanders and guests Zoe Morgan and Craig Draycott are done assessing Crnac's debut goal, the loss of Marcelino Nunez and the lobworthiness of George Long, they set about investigating the important stuff: the whereabouts of Splat The Cat. And there's still time for some post-Jack Wilshere arrival chat, the latest Glen love-in, a baby Emiliano correction, and Craig takes on one of the great questions of our time in Gunn To The Head...Kenny or Tettey?

It's the feelgood pod of the year! Sometimes it's difficult to be anything but positive - and after a 4-0 win for Norwich City over Hull City, with some free-flowing, progressive football under a new coach, The On The Ball podcast has come over all glass-half-full. Host Steve Sanders, and guests Dan Brigham, Ryan Livermore and The Pink Un's Connor Southwell, get the joy of talking high presses, winning midfield battles, wind-assisted penalty misses, Sainz's explosion in form and Kamara's less than warm welcome. Plus, breaking our silence on the unsilence, The Athletic's Jack Pitt-Brooke becomes the first person ever to pick out Frankie & Benny's as a Norwich highlight, Connor talks corners (specifically his hatred for short ones), we remember Dion Dublin's farewell tour and Javier Garrido's one great cross, and Dan promptly forgets everything that was discussed in the previous hour during Ryan quiz.

It's eight and out for the Canaries, as the On The Ball Norwich City Podcast assesses the game that ended the winning run at Carrow Road, the 1-1 draw with Bristol City. Steve Sanders (aka NCFC Numbers) bravely soldiers through cold with Dan Brigham and Dave Freezer, as the panel give overdue praise in the direction of Gunn Jr, question the timing of that Sainz run, get the abacuses out to work out what Norwich City need to nail down a top-six spot, and talk through the impact on fans of the new Sky Sports EFL deal. Plus, Allan Russell meets Russell Allan, dreaming of Westy on the pitch at Wembley, why warmth equals wins, and the best anecdote involving Mark Barham and a tortoise you'll hear all season... Get it while it's hot!

The Athletic's Michael Bailey is joined by regular guests Steve Sanders and Dan Brigham to recap an awesome week for Norwich City. Michael leads the dance for a Paul Warne love-in, but would we be so enamoured if we didn't always come away with the points when we play his teams? Plus, we've an exclusive chat with Greek import Dimitris Giannoulis and a full-and-frank debrief of our quiz supporting PCUK.

The Athletic's Michael Bailey reports on an upturn in fortunes for the Canaries with Ben Mouncer and Jon Rogers. In our crosshairs this week: Norwich's shooting stats, how absurd it is to suggest the title race is over, and a PR masterstroke from the Sporting Director, Stuart Webber. And, on the week of our big Norwich quiz, we've news of some exciting guests and all the details on how you can enter and what you could win!

Consoling Michael on the pod this week: the man behind NCFC Numbers, statistician Steve Sanders, as well as broadcaster, commentator, and chief of the Caledonian Canary Club, Stuart Hodge. Everyone is putting in their best efforts to keep spirits high despite a difficult week and an "ominous" performance from Brentford, who demolished Middlesbrough. And we celebrate the record-breaking Alexander Tettey, a man who, whatever you think of his technical abilities, has served Norwich proudly and with no scant measure of passion.

The Athletic’s Michael Bailey is joined by two former Norwich City employees, one-time Press Officer Ben Mouncer and ex-Publications Editor Dan Brigham.
