TWTD understands that Town and Norwich City are in advanced talks regarding a friendly at Carrow Road during pre-season. Rumours regarding a friendly between the two clubs have been circulating for a number of weeks.

The proposed game, which is yet to be confirmed by either club, looks set to be arranged for late July after the Canaries have returned from their pre-season trip to the USA.

In recent years East Anglian derbies have usually been played on Sundays with lunchtime kick-offs and, if the match is confirmed, the same is likely to be the case this time around with Sunday 28th July appearing the most likely date for the game to take place.

A friendly between the Blues and the Canaries was at one time a regular feature of the clubs’ pre-season preparations with trophies such as the Wilhire Cup and the Hospital Cup the prize for the winners.

Meanwhile, reported Town target Murray Davidson is set to join Rangers following his St Johnstone exit, according to the Scottish media.

TheBoyBlue added 12:37 - May 29 Great, an opportunity to be humiliated before we even get going. Ninety minutes of getting hammered whilst their fans remind us that they're PL and we're not, gloating about 9-2 and all the rest. At least if we're not playing them we can ignore them. I'd rather wait until we're on level terms again.
