OTB: A Norwich City podcast
OTB: A Norwich City podcast is an irreverent show for Norwich City FC fans. Hosted by Ryan, Steve, Zoë, Dan, and occasional guests, it offers a weekly fix of discussion about the Canaries' latest fixtures and players. Episodes also look back at games and players from years gone by, with stats, social media round-ups, mascots, and other novelty features. Formerly known as On The Ball, it captures the madness on and off the pitch at Carrow Road.
Episodes
#222 Wynn Jones, and no win at home
Not really what we had in mind if we're honest lads. Norwich City's big week turned into a big washout, with back-to-back 1-0 home defeats against Southampton and Portsmouth leaving Canaries fans with a forboding sense of deja-vu from 12 months ago.Ryan Livermore, Dan Brigham, Zoe Morgan and Steve Sanders play spot-the-difference with 2025/26, and try and find some way to explain the slump that's
#221 The Barry from Eastenders of the Championship?
Well at least we didn't lose 4-3. But that aside, any hopes that things would be different after the international break were dashed, as Norwich City lost 2-1 at top-of-the-table Swansea on Saturday to get a touch closer to the edge of their proverbial cliff.Fine margins or well beaten? Ryan Livermore, Dan Brigham, Zoe Morgan and Steve Sanders pick the bones out of a fourth straight defeat, coveri
#220 The Chris Goreham international break special
In the absence of another 4-3 defeat to speak of, the OTB podcast brings you a very special episode with voice of Norfolk and all-round nice fella, Chris Goreham.As part of the deal for having a minor fuss made over him for an episode by Steve Sanders, Dan Brigham and Zoe Morgan, Chris shares his thoughts on the season so far, answers questions from listeners on everything from his favourite Norwi
#219 WTF
Oh. Oh dear. Goals did not equal fun at Carrow Road on Sunday, as Norwich City lost 3-4 in a seven-goal-non-thriller, with Bolton taking a big old chisel to expose quite a few considerable cracks and leave the Canaries with five defeats from their opening eight league games.Steve Sanders, Dan Brigham and Zoe Morgan try and make sense of the nonsensical and question where this has all come from. Is
#218 Cry me a Riverside
First-minute screamers, wild spells of clinging on for dear life, a great comeback, and ultimate heartbreak; Norwich City's 4-3 defeat at Middlesbrough on Saturday had it all.OTB's Steve Sanders, Dan Brigham and Craig Draycott try (and miserably fail) to sum up 90 crazy minutes in ten podcast minutes: the welly of Toure, the madcap pressing, Vlad's current uncertainties, the last-gasp set-piece ca
#217 A prestige win for our greatest showmen
If you think we're above Hugh Jackman film puns then you'd be very wrong. Particularly on a week when Norwich City have turned in a proper vintage away performance to take three points at Bramall Lane with a 3-1 win at Sheffield United, with a certain speedboat starring.It hasn't all been plain sailing though and Steve Sanders, Dan Brigham and Zoe Morgan try to evaluate what City's first three poi
#216 And Everything Was Alright Again
What a difference a week makes, eh? Norwich City's league campaign is off and running after a dismantling of Burnley on Saturday, and you could say they're CUP and running as well! Right? RIGHT??The Pink 'Un's Connor Southwell joins Ryan Livermore, Dan Brigham and Zoë Morgan to talk over a week of wins, wingers and, um, wonderful (?) Big Phil Clobber that really make you feel like Norwich City are
#215 Big Phil's Bad Week
Norwich City throwing in a stinker at the start of a season? Oh we're properly up and running now. The Canaries were mauled by The Lions at The Den, with Millwall coming away deserving 3-0 winners on Saturday.Ryan Livermore, Dan Brigham, Zoe Morgan and Steve Sanders refuse to be rage-baited but nevertheless do some unheard of Big Phil questioning, play the Field (criticism) and ask why this keeps
#214 Hand away we go
Yes, it's a hand pun because there was a handball. Norwich City start the season with a 2-1 home defeat to West Brom that owed more than a little to an illegal body-part.But the panel of Ryan Livermore, Dan Brigham, Zoe Morgan and Steve Sanders eschew blaming The Hand of Heggebo and instead look with some optimism at what was a good performance with some fairly dodgy finishing, check in on the imm
#213 The OTB Season Preview 2026/27
The OTB podcast is back for a new season - and it's time for Philippe Clement to turn honeymoon period into honeymoon permanent (it sounds better when Dan says it).Host Ryan Livermore, and panellists Dan Brigham, Zoe Morgan and Steve Sanders, are as ever in optimistic pre-season mood, and maybe justifiably this season, with the return of our friend continuity and Big Phil at the helm.The gang subm
#212 It was the worst of times, it was the best of times
The 2025/26 season is done for Norwich City, and we're filing this one under 'eventful'.The OTB podcast team of Ryan Livermore, Dan Brigham, Zoe Morgan and Steve Sanders look back over a nine months that started with optimism at a time when we thought Big Phil was an Eastenders character, took in sackings and boardroom farce, and then a daring rescue by a heroic Belgian.The team revisit their high
#211 Ram-ifications of a Carrow Road swan song
So close yet so far for Norwich City! The OTB panel (bar Steve) are joined by the Pink Un's Connor Southwell to dissect and digest things other than press room pies.Ryan Livermore, Zoe Morgan and Dan Brigham, along with Connor, talk a squad that may be ready made for a play-off push next year, a wonderful, unified reaction to a *checks notes* 9th place finish that would rival most promotion celebr
#210 Mo Toure No Problems
He's only gone and done it again. All on the OTB podcast hail Mo Toure, Norwich City's wonder from down under, who bagged himself another hattrick, as the Canaries came from behind to triumph away from home again, this time with a 4-2 win at Roy Hodgson's Bristol City.Ryan Livermore, Dan Brigham, Zoë Morgan and Steve Sanders congratulate themselves on their decision to tune in, kick off the Toure
#209 A halfwit's head loss
That's not how that was all supposed to go. The On The Ball podcast reacts to the big one/damp squib (delete as appropriate), and try and find some positives amidst the disappointment, as Ipswich Town get their first win at Carrow Road for 20 years with a 2-0 win on Saturday.Ryan Livermore, Dan Brigham, Zoe Morgan and Steve Sanders take up the less than enviable task of reliving the soreness of th
#208 OTB or not OTB
Slightly new name, slightly new look, same podcasters, and absolutely the same vaguely coherent waffle.The On The Ball podcast is now the OTB podcast and Norwich City have helpfully kicked off the 'OTB' era with a win (they must have known), triumphing in one of their finest performances of the season at The Den with a 2-1 victory over Millwall.Ryan Livermore, Dan Brigham, Zoë Morgan and Steve San
#207 Tattoo sleeves and water bottle hands
After a midweek blip, normal service under Philippe Clement was resumed for Norwich City as they took to The Valley to grind out a 1-0 win at the weekend.However, in every great heroic quest there's a chippy little Welsh fella … the panel of Ryan Livermore, Dan Brigham and Steve Sanders examines the tape of the Nathan Jones vs Philippe Clement and the handshake that wasn't, as well as talking up N
