Hope you’re enjoying the recent videos peeps! 🍻 Gaz’s Nostalgic Football ManCave will be on the channel tomorrow lunchtime! In the afternoon I’ll be checking out another FORMER football stadium 😉 WHERE AM I GOING⁉️
Where's the video of the man cave pls
Can you do one of the wolves?
You should have gone roight to the back of 'The Nest' where you can still find concrete from the terracing on the old chalk pit cliff face
@@letsplayrl I’ve done a Molineux tour on the channel 😊👍🏾
@@DjMagicJay it’s up now mate 😊👍🏾
I went up a few times as a kid to see my cousin, Mark Bowen, playing. Great club in the 90s and still a nice place to come today as a Swansea fan. Great video. 👍
Thanks 😊👍🏾 glad you enjoyed it
your cousin is an NCFC legend! Scored the first goal against Bayern!
Second goal 😉
My understanding of the nickname canaries came from when the Flemish weavers came to Norwich with their canaries in the 16th century. Every time I visit Norwich I read it on the wall in the Ribs of Beer🍻
Great watch. My grandad watched Norwich at the Nest.
Cor blast bor ! 'The Canaries' was a colloquial nickname from right at the start - Due to the nickname, the kit was changed in 1907, then they moved to the Nest in 1908.
my coousin follows norwich smashing club hope to see them back in the premiership soon was trying to see what badges was on the board my big passion colleceting football badges all the best for the rest of the season anoter intresting blog keep up the great work steve
There was loads - they even had Hereford FC 😁
I like Carrow Road,nice ground. Been there a couple of times with Villa.
Love your videos Ry
Glad you enjoyed it! Got loads of villa coming up - home Vs Newcastle, away Vs Sheff Utd & home Vs United 😉👍🏾
The badge seller by the bridge is a legend. As I understand it he comes up from Essex for most games and has been attending since I was a youngster.
He strangely said he’s a Wolves fan also?
Nice video. My first game at Carrow Road was the Canaries vs Man Utd in Jan 1994. I was just back over in Norfolk from living in South Africa. Giggsy tore us apart, although Ruel Fox did his best (I was super impressed with his skill and work rate, even for a Ipswich lad, and he was soon a favourite) Got a strong memory walking down Queens Road, down through Carrow Hill, to the stadium, with everyone making their way there,
I remember that game… Norwich Vs Man United games were great at that time 😊 thanks for watching
Was there yesterday. Disappointing day for us. Shame I missed the badge seller as I’m an anorak collector. The mention of the name Steve Bruce brings me out into a cold sweat. Come on you Baggies.
Haha Brucie 😁 the Baggies started the game strong didn’t they - we were saying how well West Brom were passing it about - but that first goal changed the game didn’t it
we have the same united shirt from the thumbnail! 😀
Good video from a 61yr long Norwich supporter.
Many thanks! Glad you enjoyed it 👍🏾
Was there in 2019 20 season when we played Norwich won 3 0 that day really good old fashioned stadium mate
The big question is mate - did you have the yellow & green scarf on?…
@@RysFootyParadise no I didn't
Thanks, a great way to be like there when I’m not (emigrated). I see The south stand still has no atmosphere , I see all seater stadiums are still a shadow of the cauldrons of noise they replaced, as to ticket prices I used to pay 35p for an under 16 standing ticket. But everyone is flush with cash, that stadium has held 40k , and could do again with all standing Barclay and a new tier over the dull arsed main stand.
Comon GAZ - get it rought ol bor ! - Capacity was around 25,000 and when City started getting bigger crowds from a cup run and a wall collapsed, the FA FORCED them to get a better and safer stadium for bigger crowds. The record crowd was against Sheff Weds in the cup. The Carra was built in two months between the seasons and they started the next season at Carra Rud. 1935 was the first season. The Nest lay abandoned for many years and then later Bertram Books ( the famous Bertram family ) was there for many decades until the sold up in the 2000s and the land became housing.
Thanks for the info mate, good to know 😊👍🏾
Can't believe this has come up Gaz was my next door neighbour for about 5 years lol
Haha no way 😁 I got a video of his ManCave too 😉👍🏾
@RysFootyParadise Just seen it, he moved there after he lived next door to me. Now I know why he needed a bigger house apart from the kids.
@@authorsamueljwhitereviewsi8331 hahaha true! 😅
Love it Ry also seen my beloved Stockport County get batterd here too Andy dibble sent off last game off 2001/02 season only good thing was Norwich pipped Burnley to the playoffs 😅
You're smashing it Ry 👏
Glad you’re enjoying the videos mate 😊👍🏾🍻
@@RysFootyParadise I am mate superb right up there with footy adventures for me .
@@darrenbowden3222 legend thanks for supporting the channel! Got a few more tours of new & old stadiums this week 👀
@@RysFootyParadise buzzin
Bet you felt right at home with all those scarves 😂
Haha absolutely 😅
The club's original ground is now the Town House school playing field, a mile or two from the city centre. The part of Norwich you visited is especially interesting in addition to the football connections.
Interesting to know! 😊
@@RysFootyParadise I'm originally from Ipswich but will openly admit that Norwich is a much nicer and more vibrant place.
please can you visit the dell and the antelope ground, both old saints grounds, and maybe show off the beautiful st Mary's too? I've not seen anyone do a video like this about southampton so that would be class, great video!
Coincidentally mate I’m off to the Dell tomorrow 😉👍🏾 I’m touring St Mary’s next month on a proper stadium tour (along with your close friend at Fratton Park…) is the Antelope ground near the Dell?
@@RysFootyParadise Nice!! The Antelope Ground is worth a visit, or the County Cricket ground near Southampton Common, both former grounds. Cheers!
@@dev0nSA1nt how close roughly are they to the Dell mate? 😊
@@RysFootyParadise I went to see Ipswich lose at the Dell in the mid-80s. Weird place. Whoever designed it had a thing about triangles.
@@RysFootyParadise The Antelope Ground is the only one really worth a visit. It’s in Bellevue. Go north up Hill Lane past the dell onto archers road on the other side of the site of the ground, continue down archers road, keep going past the crossing with carlton rd to the right and banister road to the left, until you reach the end of archers road and turn right onto The Avenue. Continue onto Dorset Street then onto St. Mary’s road. At the big DHL express turn onto brintons terrace and behind the DHL/ safestore self storage building there should be a road to your left. Down there is where the antelope ground was. No worries!
Only problem with Norwich City is that the ground is not big enough. Sells out for every match no matter what league they play in. Am a Spurs fan but now living in Norfolk would love to go to Norwich more.
But did you get a scarf though? I was there. It was a great win. Bring on Leeds and Liverpool!
Some big games coming up 👏🏽 you know I’ve already got a yellow & green scarf 😉😅
Love the passion,ncfc ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤14,😊o t b c
Ipswich Town fan here
UPPA TOWN
Just to clarify the street you were on called The Nest isn't actually where the ground was. It was located one street over on what is now called Bertram Way after Bertram Books which was located there before the housing was built.
There's a statue in the area which marks where the ground was located. The photo's of the Nest that I've seen gives the impression of a health and safety officer's worst nightmare.
@@geoffpoole483 yeah I live on Bertram Way. Crowd safety was the main reason it was decided to move following an FA cup tie when 25000 attended.
True - we did walk up Bertram Way and I got some clips of the statue and that piece on the wall 😊 just was easier to start filming by that sign
Canary
Bristol city ow when the saints go 3 nille down i wana be in that number o when the saints go three nille down. Comment on who you sport

How about you get someone who actually knows what they're talking about instead of some random "fan" who clearly has never done a scrap of research whatsoever.
"This is where Norwich used to play up until.......er....1930 something..."
Yeah, great. Really informative. Clearly a details man.
Anyone would think he's never heard of Google.
"Random fan"? Perhaps you should do some research😉
Check out the latest video of his ManCave mate - he’s a MEGA fan… I threw questions at him, it’s not like he was given the heads up 😅
@@RysFootyParadise He might have a ManCave and be a MEGA fan (!), but if he was visiting The Nest and being interviewed then his research could have been better!
0.50 NCFC left The Nest in summer of 1935
1.30 The pitch was not that close to Rosary Road, there being a row of houses between the road & the pitch (you used a photo that clearly showed this)
1.55 The capacity of The Nest was nearly double his estimate; the ground record being over 25,000
3.03 Norwich had yellow shirts & green collars in 1907, long before The Nest was even considered as a ground. Likewise, the first use of 'Canaries' as a nickname was recorded in April 1905, and formalised in programmes of 1905/06.
3.28 The 'Cityzens/Citizens' nickname is likely a play on the 'City' suffix, but as Man C were founded some eight years earlier than Norwich it is doubtful that NCFC were the original holders of that nickname.
@sallyjones143 Wow, hope you never make any "mistakes"
Why use that awful word?,not necessary.
Ipswich?
Possibly the worst fans. Bolton, Fulham or these lot.
