This week I got the chance to speak to Norwich City fan Jacob Sharred, who was more than happy to sing about his favourite Canaries.
How long have you been a Norwich City fan? I've been a Norwich fan basically all my.life. but more so since I quit playing as I had more time to start going to games home and away. Who are your favourite players to wear the yellow/green shirt of Norwich City? Favourite player ever in my lifetime has to be Grant Holt and Adam Drury. Holty because he was just a legend and Drury because he played left back like me. Currently though it has to be Ivo Pinto, the way he treats the club and the fans with love. Not many footballers do that nowadays. How did you feel about last Tuesdays fixture, amazing game or tough defeat? Last Tuesday we were ahead but we were not playing well. In fairness I think we deserved to go out because of that. You're on track for a second promotion to the Premier League in three years, how do you feel about the clubs performance? Performances haven't been great, but up until the last few games we were still winning. It seems that teams have figured us out and know that we will be sloppy in all areas of the pitch. I feel when that changes, we will be a very difficult team to beat. Norwich have benefited from many a signing from Leeds United including Howson, Johnson and Snodgrass. Is there any player you'd love to take from Leeds this season? We currently have one solid centre back in Timm Klose, I have not watched much of Leeds but I've seen the videos of Pontus Jansson and he looks a quality player. What's your opinion of Alex Neil? I like Alex Neil. But if he fails to beat Leeds on Saturday I can't see him staying much longer. It's a shame but if we want to go up. We need to be winning most games. Not going 5 without a win. Who will be your Champions, automatic and playoff places? I think Newcastle will win the league. Then in second it'll be Brighton and Norwich, Wednesday, Huddersfield and Bristol. Who do you think will be relegated? I think Rotherham, Blackburn and Wigan will go down, Cardiff and Derby have new managers. Forest will probably get a new one soon and Burton are on a high. They'll stay up. Prediction and scorers for Saturdays game? I think it will be a very very tight game, looking at it on paper. You'd expect norwich to smash Leeds. With players like Brady, Hoolahan, Naismith and Klose, but we haven't been in great form. I think we will win. But it will be a very good game and it will be 1-0. I think Jerome will be the scorer. We'd like to thank Jacob for taking the time to answer our questions and wish him the best for the season. We however are hoping for a repeat performance from last Tuesday in which we bossed them around the park. By Ryan Ingham

Cannot wait until the day leeds go up.... genuinely hope we pillage their youth academy leaving nothing but a turd in the changing room loos (not condoning throwing neal in the loos btw). Gona be a very tough game against a good home side but Norwich arent a Newcastle anymore... if they dont go up this season or next they'll dissapear back into the cave theyve been hiding in for the last century mot
