    Except I have never seen a gold Canary.

    Poetic license?

    No it isn't. Gold is Gold. Yellow is not.

    :p

    gold can be red gold or yellow gold.... depends on what it's mixed with.

    Isn't that a reference to team colours not the colour of a canary!

    Just to clear this up once and for all: Norwich City colours are GREEN & YELLOW, but the team are PURE GOLD!

    There are two reasons why 'gold' is acceptable on this occasion, 1 :- it's a reference to Newton Heath's colours, and 2 :- the poem scans perfectly using 'gold', not so using 'yellow'!

    Nice poem, sir, but I must point out cookbook doesn't rhyme with farce!

    <whistle>

    ok so we've established two things... 1. norwich wear yellow... nice to know <ok> 2. norwich don't seem to like green and yellow take over in salford some some reason.

    should we know anything else?

    Only that we also think Kenny Dalglish is a wise man.

    &#8220;I don&#8217;t know what other people expect, but I know what we do. We expect as difficult a game against Norwich as Manchester United gave us last week,
    Paul Lambert has done a fantastic job there. They are sitting there pretty comfortable in the league in ninth position. They went to Old Trafford and played very well.
    I&#8217;m sure they will be looking forward to coming here and doing equally well. They&#8217;ve done brilliantly.&#8221;

    Hope he's right and we do ourselves justice.
    In Lambert we trust!

    I do like Lambert, he's done a fantastic job with you guys and seems a very good manager. I remember seeing him play in the CL final for Dortmund.
