Loads and loads of inflatables and hula skirts. The singing didn't stop from 2.45pm until after 5pm . Incredible atmosphere. Couldn't believe how much noise about 2000 could make. we lost 2-0 but nobody seemed to care. It was a bank holiday and many were going on to yarmouth for the weekend . Honolulu was sung most of the game. Mental, mental day out that. Edited February 18, 2019 by Maddogbob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The larger towns have changed over the years. Many nice rural areas. It depends what you need in your life. Big downside....its a flipping long way to Sheffield. Rubbish roads no motorways lots of tractors. Choose carefully guru. It’s a long way to anywhere Spent all last summer up there, and I know Norfolk well, and the proximity to the coast is a bonus The choice for me is, city life in Norwich, or a more rural retreat.

I hope nobody is going to tell me we actually stole this chant from another club!!? I believe it was originally a Laurel & Hardy song back in the 1930's. It's been around a while, but can anyone remember when we started singing it, does anybody recall when they first heard it? Anyway, a recent trip to the shops inspired me to design a Honolulu Hoodie. Would anyone be interested in one of these? That badge no too big, left breast, good quality polo shirt please, Edited February 19, 2019 by Geedee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickjj Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 I can picture Norwich away this season with 2,500 Wednesday fans all wearing that shirt. It would be brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickswfc Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Did we really sing it back in the 80s? I'd always thought the band created it towards the end of the 2000/01 season. If so there must have been a long gap in between where it wasn't used. Also that Norwich game was 1-0 and in April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOOTIE AND THE SHIT TU Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Never mind that Is anyone selling that shirt yet? Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Growling Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 It's one of the best chants of the lot. Anthemic and can be sung for 5-10mins on the right days and just gets better! It was sung at Fulham last season for a good few minutes. Gets 2 pages in the book 'The history of football chants' and the book rightly points out it defies logic. Not a huge fan of concourse moments but this one below I like and remember mainly as it's at a rarity at home, 3-0 up at HT to Birmingham. Let's face it Home concourse moments are pretty unwarranted these last 2 seasons. :( Shows how the song can be sung. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birley Owl 1867 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 It's a good song as no one else can sing it. How many other teams can put their team name in without sounding tone deaf? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
