Roy Blower (President)

Born in Norfolk and started watching the Canaries in 1948 being taken by his father to his first match.

Started working for the supporters club in 1955 selling 'On the Ball' tickets. Since then he became Supporters Forum Co-ordinator between the years of 1988 and 1994 and chairman of NCISA from its formation in 1995 until he became Lord Mayor of Norwich in 2007. In February 2008 he was elected to the new post of President in recognition of his service to NCISA and Norwich City.

He is a firm believer in representing supporters interests at all levels. He is a season ticket holder in the old South Stand and his main interests outside football are cricket and table tennis.

John Tilson (Chairman)

John is the former landlord of the Cottage PH on Silver Rd, Norwich, where the association was formed in 1995. He served in the police force for 25 years and was the Football Intelligence Officer for Norwich City 1985-1992.

He is now a season ticket holder in 'The City Stand right behind the home dug out, a shareholder and member of the Supporters Consultative Group (SCG). He was the treasurer of NCISA on its formation, and is now Chairman. A regular away traveller, John has seen City play at over 80 league grounds plus Europe, Wembley and Cardiff during his 45 year association with the Canaries.

Kathy Blake (Secretary)

Norfolk born and bred. Introduced to City by her grandfather and mother. Kathy attended her first match in 1965 and was hooked.

She joined NCISA during the dark days of the Chase regime and feels NCISA played an important role in the changes that occurred around that time. Took over as secretary of NCISA from Keith Spanton in 2002.

Kathy will be moving to the Snakepit from August 2008 after sitting in the River End and has two children both of whom are season ticket holders.

Her other interests include cricket and hiking.

Clare Williamson (Treasurer)

Clare was born in Cambridgeshire and lived in Suffolk for 25 years until moving to Norfolk in 2000. Although living on the 'other side' she has supported Norwich all of her life and has a season ticket in the City Stand with her Dad for the past nine years.

Clare joined NCISA in October 2004, and feels that it has an important role to play for NCFC supporters.

Her other love is horse riding, where she is a qualified show jumping judge and owns her own horse.

John Wilkinson  

Norfolk born and therefore a Canary supporter from when he first kicked a football. For many years he had to watch City's away visits to London.

He moved back to Norfolk and has been a season ticket holder for 25 years and in recent years a shareholder.

John says NCISA helps to bring a greater understanding between supporters and NCFC as well as providing substantial funding for the football club.

Daphne Griffith

Not born in Norfolk, but I have followed football since my dad taught me to read from the sports pages of his paper. I started watching the Canaries 11 seasons ago when I moved to Norfolk with my husband. We have been season ticket holders for 3 years, sitting in the Norwich and Peterborough Upper, and try to get to away games whenever possible. I work for a local charity and am very enthusiastic about Norwich City's work in the community.

Vic Hopes

Vic started to go to Carrow Road in 1946 until 1979 when he moved 'up North.' Upon returning in 1985 Vic again became a season ticket holder and transfered to his current seat in the Main Stand in 1992. Vic also has many other social commitments within 'local affairs.'

Robert O' Neill

Robert became a season ticket holder in the 1989-90 season and has sat in the 'D' block of the lower barclay since the 97-98 season. In September 2002, Robert became a shareholder, and was the only one at the 2005 Shareholders meeting that took the floor to state the Nigel Worthington should be replaced. Robert has a proud history of both playing for, and captaining the Junior Canaries. Robert continued his football as he grew older and is a qualified grade 3 referee .

David Maidstone

A Canary fan for 40 years, David is now an Upper River Ender, known for waking his neighbours with a timely "Yellows". He has worked in finance and IT for many years and is known as a regular on message boards as "Face" or by the strange symbol of ":o)". With this background he has landed the task of updating and maintaining the website, so let him know if you would like to see anything new.

Having followed City around the country he welcomes the chance of visiting new grounds but preferably those he hasn't been to in the Premier League rather than the new MK Dons stadium!
