Ryan I have one as well, but only 2 league one teams. I have a cup final next week as well where I have to turn up in a suit, but I don't have to this weekend. I went last weekend to have a look around, and I don't know about Norwich but it was quite relaxed compared to what I was expecting. Everyone was very nice, and relaxed, which was nice. I know your game is of a higher standard, but though I'd let you know about my experience. Let us know how it goes on! good luck!
 
As you get on, you will be wearing a suit to most matches!

As for academy's, not sure about U10, but at 11-a-side, you can expect a fast, good quality game with very little problems.
 
I did an U10s on Sunday, and it was fast and of very good quality! There were more free kicks than I expected, but everything passed over fine!
