| Norwich's period of absolute "dominance".. 10:12 - Dec 18 with 3729 views | ChampionsofInnsbruck |
Norwich's dominant period:
7 wins against us in 14 years and 6 draws.
Premier League Winners: 0
FA Cup Winners: 0
League Cup Winners: 0
European Qualifications: 0
Let's look at everything from the 21st century, as they really don't like the 20th century.
Highest finish: Ipswich (5th in 2000/01)
European Qualifications: Ipswich 2 (2001/02) (2002/03)
Biggest Stadium: Ipswich
Highest attendance: Ipswich
Promotions: Norwich (6) Ipswich (2)
Relegations: Ipswich (2) Norwich (6)
Most derby wins: Norwich (12) Ipswich (5)
Best Cup Run: Ipswich (League Cup Semi-finalists 2010/11)
Innsbruck Championships: Ipswich (1)
If that is dominance and utter superiority well... congratulations on your derby wins and yoyos. Ipswich still THE only East Anglian team to play in Europe this century, still the only team to manage a top 5 finish and still the only side to reach a semi-final of one of the main cups and we've only played in the top flight twice.

That's all irrelevant. Yoda'll be along in a minute to tell us that we blew our cup final. |  | | |

We’ve won twice as many matches in Europe since we were relegated in 2002 than they have in their entire history.
Since we last played in the PL, they have been promoted to the top flight on five occasions — their highest finish up there has been a dizzying 11th, and they went straight back down after four of those promotions. And they have reached one FA Cup quarter-final. [Post edited 18 Dec 2023 10:22]

Our cup final we walked away a little surprised we didn't win that they celebrated like it was a World Cup after getting a 2-2 draw. | | | |

Saturday's match was also the first time we were favourites to beat them in that 14 year spell. |  | | |

They've won 3 derbies in the last 9.
Outplayed and outclassed on Saturday against a side with a wage bill a fraction of theirs. Our whole starting XI cost about the same as Sara.

We absolutely should have, we are doing amazingly well but we bottled the first 20 minutes - half hour of Saturday where we should have had 3 goals and that's what won them their drawer, it should have finished 4-2 or 5-2 as we normally see! They had two shots created by iffy refereeing and linos and scored 2, as the officials also bottled the occasion also. [Post edited 18 Dec 2023 10:32]

Bottled is such a weird football phrase. We didn’t bottle anything, we just missed chances |  |

Chances that in any other game we'd have taken and we'd have been 2 or 3 up at the start as we were against other teams. We fluffed our lines in places because of the occasion, you could feel it in the air, we should have won the game and had it out of sight. Clarke however for me stepped up for the occasion and made that game his own.
Norwich had turned up for a draw, and to their credit played a perfect game to get it, play the officials, fall over, play for time, foul constantly, kick the ball in the air, had the officials been up to the job we'd have had no issues but they were totally out of their depth. It's a shame because we'll likely not play them at home for a while if things keep going as they are.
That should have been a 4-2 Town win. We bottled it! | | | |

The Swansea game we missed loads more chances so lets not start this "because of this game we missed them"
We are good, but not prolific otherwise we'd win every game with 6+ goals. | | | |

agree with your overall point, but we are prolific...
6 goals more prolific than the next best scorers in the league! | |

7-0 IS quite dominant - and its difficult to add to the total when you are in a higher division
You could also add that Norwich has had its own football club in that time of utter dominance while Town became an amusing offshore ‘investment’, money laundering vehicle, call it what you will and then a franchise.
That probably explains why such a large proportion of Town ‘supporters’ of.a certain age get themselves into so much of an embarrassing hissy fit over Norwich | |

We miss chances like those most weeks. Broadhead had an easier one on one than that a couple of games ago and also dragged it wide. Hirst missed a one on one the other week as well. Saturday isn't the first time we've missed chances and it won't be the last. |  |

It's been dressed up so many times in different ways for anyone from Norfolk to understand hasn't it? So let's keep it more simple maybe.
Whilst our club had been beaten and abused for 20 years, our rivals still couldn't make the football World sit up or even have a shred of success. Wigan, Portsmouth & Swansea managed to do this, though.
So basically in your golden period against your bigger brother, you're still absolutely irrelevant and pointless to anyone outside of an NR postcode. | |

Obviously I don’t expect an answer.

I think it was Not the 72 who put up the stat that 13 games unbeaten is currently the longest unbeaten run in any of the derbies among teams playing in the top 2 divisions, which is rather galling, especially when it really should have been ended in February 2018.
But I can’t get too YOU DAMNED BUDGIES! about it when the current draw sees us 10 points clear of 3rd place. |  | | |

Losing just 7 times to any team over the course of a decade and a half is not dominance of any kind, many other second tier clubs have beaten us more than 7 times in that same period, playing a similar number of games... and a chunk of them never had yoyo promotions financing their teams either. | | | |

And if 7-0 was the score over the last 7 derbies, that would be the definition of dominance.
But it’s 2 wins and 5 draws contributing to “an unbeaten run” - a little more nuanced and less glamorising than “dominant”.
A reminder that the world would be a better place if it had more Ben Blooms and less Chris Reeves. | | | |

They have bigger problems coming if they continue to stay in this league with the lack of the yoyo payments coming their way, they aren't exactly financed by mega powers, they will need to make changes to avoid the mess that others have found themselves in, including ourselves. | | | |

Winning at Carrot Road in their own back yard would be more pure to end the run also imo. Should have happened Saturday but we get one more chance. After that hopefully we may draw them

Rather ironic coming from somebody who has had a 2.5 year hissy fit over a club he clearly loathes. All because some people bought the club and invested in it.
And on what basis do you make the assumption that your club would have added to the total had mine been in the same division? |  | | |

Karl Fuller puts their claim into complete perspective:
“Let them have their 14 years to fall back on. By the way, in 64% of those years, we have not even played each other. Plenty of hollow moments to enjoy there then.”
Like everything else related to that tin pot club, they “ claim” for things they haven’t even achieved.
Well you would if you were utter 💩 wouldn’t you! |  |
