The 1970s had been a generous decade to the Norfolk club. It had
witnessed promotion to the top flight of English football for the
first time in their history, relegation, promotion, a first and
then second ever visit to Wembley for a major cup final, as well as
the appointment of the club's very own star of both the game and
celebrity circus, the one and only John Bond. However, with the
club beginning to struggle and the obvious talents of the mercurial
John Bond constantly attracting the attention of some bigger clubs,
the end of the decade looked to be a prelude to the sort of
anonymity and struggle that had characterised the club's existence
for much of its history. Would the 1980s turn out to be a time when
the Canaries briefly flared in the footballing skies for all to
see, before falling back into obscurity? Or would they grow and
prosper with the game, despite the glamour and celebrity favouring
the big clubs and the big games which comes at the expense of
everything else? This drive within the game that sees clubs, even
to this day, fall on hard times and into administration, and, even
in some cases, liquidation. One thing is for certain - if the club
was to continue to prosper in the coming decade, it would be a
bigger achievement than anything they had achieved in the previous
one.
