Norwich City boss Chris Hughton is convinced they have the same potential as Newcastle United.

Hughton believes that Norwich boast a lot of similarities to Newcastle as a club that represents an entire region, with packed houses and passionate support.

He said: "There are similarities.

There's a big, passionate, local support at Carrow Road, and the away support too. I'm sure they will make themselves heard up in the north-east.

"The Geordies were always very good to me. We had ups and downs during my time but thanks to their supporters they have got through those difficult times."
