Obviously the most infamous is the Pink'Un, and there's this one which is a lot more up and coming.  How many other active Norwich forums are there on the web?  

I do feel like we're a bit behind clubs like Leicester etc who are a similar size to us online.  Maybe that's because Norfolk is generally a bit behind online!

Theres Wrath of the Barclay and Carrowroad.net also.

How many more do we need? Theres not much point unless they offer something different ( which I think this place does compared to the Pinkun)

There is norwich vital but it's a bit of a grave yard!

I went on the Pink'un message board today for the first time since Norwich Talk opened up and it just reminded me why I don't bother. I don't know if its because I'm now biased or have a warped view of the place, but it just wound me up even with the extra traffic/posters the place seems to get.

Definitely think this is the place to be!

Quality over quantity surely has to be the order of the day.

Unless there's decent debate, with a reasonable level of activity, most of these message boards will just die a slow lingering death.

Most people like to give their view on Twitter -as (facebook!) - The immediate reaction to something ! and chance of getting an instant reply .

Shame -hopefully we can still give our views after event- and enjoy others -  Can see why lest people join in forums .

Is Olano posting on this as he used to post in Norwichcitymad (maybe he still does) but it faded badly?

Critical mass... If you drop down to less than say three dozen active posters, the forum dies.  I've been through the gamut of internet communication systems over the years - Usenet groups, email lists, forums.. and watched nearly all of them turn to ghost towns.  MySpace did it in the latest era of social media, and I suspect it will happen to Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram at some point down the road as the Next Big Thing comes along.

Hmm, I'm not sure, because we had the forum-site renewed this year, and now it only features a small "chat-box", so I can't search him up either.. Sadly the old forum-function was'nt used so they now use the site mainly for news/info and half-time/full-time score competition..

By the way, the web-adress i posted before was wrong! The right adress is: www.scancanaries.com and not .no as i posted :p

Does that Norwich Vital forum have anything to do with the people that produce those terribly written articles?

Seven in total, including this one:

  • The Pink'un Messageboard
  • Wrath of the Barclay
  • NorwichTalk.com
  • Not 606 Norwich City Forum
  • Vital Norwich Forum
  • Footymad.Net
  • Carrowroad.net
And the busiest in terms of quantity of posts is Wrath of the Barclay, believe it or not, although most posts are a few words long. If their traffic statistics are accurate it is probably the busiest in terms of traffic too.

its more lively than this forum
Looks like you have gone and got yourself a bit upset: http://www.norwich.vitalfootball.co.uk/forum/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=15657&posts=15

Unfortunately when 3 of your members are responsible for something like 50% of all posts ever made, does seem to suggest that it is a bit of a ghost town.

All I want to know is how the hell you manage to cope with all those giant flashing ads, don't they get on your titties?

All this "my forum is better than your forum" smacks of people having other issues lol ;)

Ha, just seen this. Bit of a cheek given that their forum is essentially 4 old boys talking to one another!

On another point though, where has this idea that you can't criticise the club on here come from? Absolute piffle.

Tell me about it, who knows. 

Also, what on earth are we supposed to be criticising the club for at the moment?

Are we supposed to moan about being 2nd?
