    Bjork is an Icelandic singer, but her name is pronounced like byerk, so sounds nothing like Norwich.

    You mean the team at the top of the league? And who will stay there if we win tomorrow?

    No, she is an Icelandic singer not a football team.

    Norwich was a city in 1049 before there was a Hull. York has had city status since before then.. York and Norwich were the largest two places outside London at he time of William The Conqueror’s invasion and remained so for a long time after. You don’t need a cathedral to be a city. And you don’t become a city because you have a cathedral.

    Winchester was the biggest city outside of London at the time of the Norman Conquest, then York, Norwich and Lincoln.

    It’s a wonder that Winchester City don’t get 20,000 fans every week. Shocking fans, as bad as Hull City’s.

    The abnormal conquests were obviously mainly in Norwich.

    Are those the fingers you used to count the goals scored before half time at your son’s favourite game at WBA?
