Was quite pleased to find a few of these, as was talking to someone about what the area used to look like in the early 90's (when I first moved here) and I struggled to remember.

Enjoy!

Sometime between 85 and 92.



During the 92-93 season.

92-93 was my first season as a season ticket holder, apparently I'd been a few times before that but I can't remember any earlier.

I can remember walking down Rose Lane and then up King Street to the game with my dad, popping into a load of smoky pubs on the way which unfortunately don't exist anymore. 

The Clarence Harbour was a sh*thole even then. But a couple of others were great boozers, what was that big one on King Street called again? The one with the big garden and mooring at the back?

And wasn't there another little old pub on King Street back then with really low ceilings, you'd walk in the door and the floor level would be lower than the street, or am I just getting confused with the front room of that same pub?

Before my time mate, I moved to Norfolk in 1992, and didn't go to my first game till 94!

Not sure I remember it, I didn't come to Norwich that often, I lived in North Walsham until 2008 (and in Germany 95-98) , before I moved into the City.
