Match result news announcers are unexpected to notice the change, as they've been saying Norwich City nil for most of the season already.

147 Canaries for 1 Year
For the fifth edition of the /r/Soccer Subreddit of the Week, we will be taking a look at /r/NorwichCity.
After getting back to the Premier League for the first time in 6 years for the 2011-2012 season, Norwich City have established themselves as a Premier League regular.
