The unofficial one-stop shop for Norwich City trivia, doling out #ncfc stats to impress/bore your friends with. Says stuff on the On The Ball pod. Norwich, EnglandJoined July 2018
Today is the first time Norwich City have conceded three goals in the first 15 minutes of the second half for 38 years (a 2-4 defeat to Arsenal in 1987), and the first time they've conceded three goals in the first 15 minutes of any half for 30 years (1-5 v Arsenal in 1995) #ncfc
Runs of four home defeats in a row in Norwich City's 123-year history:
1. Sept-Oct 1968
2. Jan-Feb 2006
3. Jun-Jul 2020
4. Aug-Sept 2025
This is the first season they've begun with four home defeats, and Liam Manning is the first #ncfc manager to lose his first four home games.
Gutted to concede late? Got away with one? A good point? @Ryan_Livermore, @dan_brigham, @zoevfmorgan & I try to decide 🔰

78 minutes is the longest Norwich City have had the lead in a game that they haven't won since a 1-1 draw v Palace on New Year's Day 2020 (81 minutes) #ncfc
Norwich City blocked 15 shots today, the most they've got in the way of as a team in any game in the last 15 years.
Last season no Norwich City player blocked five or more shots in a match. Both Harry Darling (6) and Jakov Medic (5) managed to do so today #ncfc
Four shots is the fewest Norwich City have had in a game they haven't lost for 15 years, since their 1-0 win at The Valley to seal promotion in April 2010. This was the 450th time the Canaries have won or drawn since that game #ncfc

Not a bad day's work #ncfc 🔰
Josh Sargent moves alongside Wes Hoolahan onto 54 Norwich City goals.
Only three players now have more goals for the Canaries since 1990: Iwan Roberts, Teemu Pukki and Grant Holt #ncfc 💚💛🇺🇸
Norwich City players since the Second World War to score five goals in the first four league games of a season:
Craig Bellamy - 1998/99
Teemu Pukki - 2019/20
Josh Sargent - 2025/26
#ncfc 🔰🇺🇸🫡
Top goalscorers in August in Norwich City's history:
Josh Sargent - 17
Terry Allcock - 12
Johnny Gavin - 10
Hugh Curran; Grant Holt; Teemu Pukki - 9
Sargent's 17 August goals have come in 18 starts #ncfc 🔰🇺🇸🫡
Today was the first time Norwich City have won by more than one goal away from home in 32 matches, since beating Stoke 3-0 in March 2024.
They’ve already won more away games this season than in their final 19 matches on the road last season #ncfc 🔰
For the first time in over 100 years, yesterday's Norwich City starting XI didn't contain a single player to have scored more than one goal for the club #ncfc 🔰
Josh Sargent's goal today is the first since Teemu Pukki v QPR in April 2019 that Norwich City have scored in a game following a red card - six years, 15 games and 8h40m of playing time.
In that period, the Canaries have conceded six times while playing against ten men #ncfc
Since the start of 2024, Norwich City players have received straight red cards on three occasions:
🟥 Borja Sainz v Middlesbrough A; March 2024
🟥 Kenny McLean v Middlesbrough H; October 2024
🟥 Jacob Wright v Middlesbrough H; August 2025
#ncfc
It is indeed the first time ever that Norwich City have had the same scoreline in the first four games of a season.
They had three 1-1s to start 2005/06, but had never gone four in a row until this season #ncfc

Eleven goals conceded in the last four games at Carrow Road by Norwich City.
That's the joint highest number they've conceded across four home league games outside the top flight in the last 60 years #ncfc
A match made in (long-term...) heaven 🤝
Josh Sargent is the first player in Norwich City's history to score in the first four games of a manager's reign #ncfc 🔰
