[article]Norwich have wiped out all of their external debt and returned a small profit after tax of £500,000, the Premier League club revealed on Thursday in accounts published for the year end May 31, 2013.

The Norfolk club retained their place in the top flight last season under manager Chris Hughton, ending up in 11th place after eventually pulling clear of the relegation battle.

Overall revenue at Carrow Road was up to £78.7m from £74.3m in 2012, with a profit of £500,000 which was down from £13.5m as the club moved to slash external debt from £11.3m to some £900,000, with £700,000 of that as "preference shares" and the remaining balance now paid off since 1 June.[/article]
 
That one about conceding fewer than 3 goals in your opening 7 games definitely puts us in the frame for a CL spot.
 
Somebody was on the radio today setting out the 2012/13 results of that annual survey of bad reffing decisions in the Prem and their effects which has been quoted on here before now. Stoke, Tottenham and the blueslime benefited big-time, but guess which other side benefited the most. Citeh and the Arse got the rough end of the stick more than most, but guess which other side suffered the worst. Yep, right both times.
