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.

The contracts have been signed, the transfer requests have (hopefully) all been handed in and the window has shut. The On The Ball podcast assesses whether an eventful window went well or not for the new look Norwich City and their eight fresh-faced signings, or whether they'll miss the newly departed Jonny Rowe and Abu Kamara. Of course the optimism levels of host Steve Sanders, and guests Ryan Livermore and Craig Draycott, were helped by a 1-0 win for the Canaries at Coventry, their first in the league this season. The panel discuss some no-nonsense Doyle defending, the new fad of looking composed in possession, and the delight of half-time subs who can change a game. Elsewhere, features old and new as Craig makes a case for seedless cup draws, and Ryan is forced to choose between Glenn Roeder and Dean Smith in 'Gunn To The Head'. Plus the Croatian for 'buttons', the Spanish for 'Ken Aboh' and a couple of nice reminders of the existence of Dani Pacheco - all in the latest episode of On The Ball!

13 goals in a week! Most of them for Norwich City! The On The Ball podcast glosses over last week's dodgy start at Oxord to pronounce the Hoff era as up-and-running, with a 4-3 win against Stevenage and a 2-2 draw with Blackburn. And it's all change in the presenter's chair, with Ryan Livermore stepping in as host and Steve Sanders joining Zoe Morgan on the panel. The three of them discuss the heralding of youth, Forson forcing his way in, the problem with Shane Duffy, and the rise of Good Vibes FC for 2024/25. Plus, Derby County fan Ryan Dilks of The Second Tier podcast shares what the point of Norwich City is (spoiler: lots of love for Wes Hoolahan), our Ryan's quiz is all about the Onel drought, all the Idah stuff we missed out last week, changing the headbutt law, and a very shallow dive into the life and times of Richard Ressler.

It's not that often that the On The Ball podcast gets to react to big on-the-day Norwich City news but the announcement that Delia and Michael would be passing ownership over to Norfolk Holdings (not a haulage company) was just that. The dawning of a shiny new era, and the sun setting on a truly historic one. It all gave Steve Sanders, Zoe Morgan and Dan Brigham a handy distraction from the sad stuff - things like the first-day humbling at the Kassam, Grant Hanley and Shane Duffy still being a thing, and Jonny Rowe heading to the naughty step (or, as it's more accurately known, the U21s training ground), and possibly the south of France. Plus, football author and broadcaster Daniel Gray tells us 'What Is The Point of Norwich City?', managerial fashionistas, Notting Hill, and the start of new feature 'Brad Hills To Die On', featuring Zoe going in two-footed on players who won't use two feet.

The On The Ball Norwich City Podcast is back and readying itself for The Hoff Era with a pre-season preview. Steve Sanders, Dan Brigham and Zoe Morgan assess the last couple of months, taking in the highs of the arrival of Thorup and new pod favourite Glen Riddersholm and the lows of the St Pauli defeat and Adam Idah not getting on no plane, and offer a healthy dose of realism/deranged optimism (pick your pundit) ahead of Norwich City's new Danish adventure. Plus, Spurs fan James Bugg from The Football Book Club podcast offers some sensible thoughts on the Canaries (as well as asking if the club's first chairman was a bird) as part of new feature What's The Point of Norwich City, a tearful goodbye to lovely Gabriel Sara, no-one can decide on whether Jack Stacey will be good or bad, and an On The Ball podcast first as one panellist phones in from the bath. Quite the way to kickstart a new season. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It’s end of season party podcast time! The campaign is finally over, and the On The Ball Norwich City Podcast will see you to the conclusion in style, with a supercharged episode to round off the season. This feature-length episode stars Steve Sanders, Dan Brigham and Zoe Morgan, and takes in tragedy (Norwich City’s crushing 4-0 defeat to Leeds), comedy (revisiting the panellists’ start of season predictions), suspense (just who did win the On The Ball Podcast Player of the Season award?) and features all your favourite heroes from a kind-of memorable season (Sara, Kenny, Hwang). Plus, the panellists assess the era of Wagner and whether they agree with his dismissal, run the rule over the pretenders to his crown (including William Stilliam), check in on the departed – and possibly soon-to-be departed – members of the squad, and hand out their inimitable and coveted end of season prizes, such as the ‘He’s Dead To Me’ award and the ‘Ashley Barnes Moment of the Season’ award.

Let's be fair, that wasn't what we'd hoped for. The On The Ball Norwich City Podcast takes stock at the halfway stage of the play-off semi-final between Norwich City and Leeds United, with no goals to speak of. That didn't stop Steve Sanders (aka NCFC Numbers), Dan Brigham and Zoe Morgan from having plenty to discuss though, with the trio soaking up another electric Carrow Road atmosphere, lauding the return of Dimi and the continued excellence of Nunez, and sweating on the fitness of the probably-absolutely-fine (according to David Wagner's post-match assessment) Josh Sargent. Plus curries, Call The Midwife slander, other clubs' owners taking our sage advice, and the reasons why we're actually going to bloody do it and Elland Road and make it to Wembley. OTBC!

Call off the trepidation - the top six spot is booked and the On The Ball Norwich City Podcast can start looking ahead to a date with the ex, as Daniel Farke arrives with Leeds on Sunday for a play-off semi-final. Steve Sanders (aka NCFC Numbers), Dave Powles and Connor Southwell try and work out what sort of position the Canaries will need to be in heading to Elland Road, attempt to care more about Norwich City's defeat at Birmingham more than David Wagner, and look back at the topsy-turvy campaign that's led us to here.

You will hear no presumptions made on this penultimate/not-penultimate On The Ball Norwich City Podcast for 2023/24. That's because the Canaries are nearly in the play-offs but not quite rubber stamped yet - with a 2-2 draw with Swansea at the weekend, along with Hull's draw with Ipswich, meaning that only an eight-goal swing in Hull's favour would see Norwich City drop out of the top six. Steve Sanders (aka NCFC Numbers), Dan Brigham and Ryan Livermore ensure not to break any mirrors or walk under any ladders, as the panel once again pay homage to the magnificence of Gabriel Sara, try and remember the five shots of Duffy, and at least allow Sydney van Hooijdonk more air time than he gets game time. Plus, Kenny wins player of the season and immediately slips into apology mode, finding ways to avoid next Saturday's game, and a lot of agonising noises over answers in Ryan Livermore's player-of-the-year quiz.

The panel of NCFC Numbers (aka Steve Sanders), Dan Brigham and Dave Powles review that, before moving on to the positivity of the comeback win over Plymouth, Gabriel Sara's free-kick nearly moment and Norwich City's new role as the Championship's new corner routine kings.

Five goals, five goalscorers beginning with S - some sort of sorcery... Episode 149 of the On The Ball Norwich City Podcast deals with the alliterative, but also revels in a thumping 5-0 win for Norwich City over Rotherham on Saturday that lifted Norwich City into the top six. NCFC Numbers (aka Steve Sanders) is joined by Ryan Livermore and Radio Norfolk Norwich City commentator Chris Goreham to run the rule over the Canaries and their historically poor opponents, dish out a bit of praise to Jack Stacey and Jacob Sorensen, and discuss who did it better: Sainz or Sara.

NCFC Numbers (aka Steve Sanders), Dan Brigham and consummate debutant Dave Powles discuss whether he might be Norwich City's most important player for the run-in, and whether or not he'll be part of a top-six squad come May.

The transfer window will dramatically slam shut on Thursday, and all the talk is suddenly about an Adam Idah move to Verona in Serie A. So naturally that's what a lot of the talk in Episode 147 of the On The Ball Norwich City Podcast was about the potential deal as well. NCFC Numbers (aka Steve Sanders), Zoe Morgan and Ryan Livermore didn't manage to totally avoid Norwich City's two games this week though, taking in the cavalier defending at Anfield, Borja's banger, Sara's miss at Elland Road, Kenny in FIFA mode and bending it like Barnes. Still, at least they didn't lose to Maidstone...

Elsewhere, the trio lament the shortness and not-so-sweetness of the Adam Forshaw era, Ryan brings a five-star five-second quiz, everything you never needed to know about yoyos, and a panto star is born in Buttons, who stars from beginning to end.
