The launch of Norwich City's new home kit has been met with an overwhelmingly positive reaction by supporters this morning – and so has the club's traditional reveal video, featuring a host of Canaries legends.

City's home strip was revealed at 9am and is now available to buy, with a mostly yellow shirt which fades into green in its lower half, as well as on the shoulders and features green sleeve trim, it is also paired with full green shorts.

The launch video features head coach Daniel Farke and provides a first-person view of what it's like to be a player on a match day, with guest appearances from club legends including Wes Hoolahan, Iwan Roberts, Jeremy Goss and Bryan Gunn.

This is absolute quality. Legends everywhere. Big fan of the camera pan across Justin Fashanu. Well played @NorwichCityFC #ncfc https://t.co/i1X7xbU5IT

First impressions of that #ncfc shirt is that it's gorgeous, even if it is a slightly amended version of the Iceland shirt, and it does kind of look like a GK kit...

Imagine looking this good on the first day of the premier League season... Slipping the ball through Van Dijks legs, sliding a sexual ball into pukki who bangs one in at the Kop end . #ncfc https://t.co/r7f43Mfi8a

New kit is fit #ncfc

I'm going to need one of those. I'd say that's even better than the last one. #NCFC pic.twitter.com/OTqKthMu3e

The training kit is better than the kit, just saying... #ncfc

Looks like both the primary and the sleeve sponsor have agreed to change their colours to match the kit. Makes all the difference. #NCFC.

Very rare that a company wants to change its logo in any way, so that's a bit of a win.

Never been so emotional so early in the morning #ncfc https://t.co/dGQqv3dGOC

#ncfc i don't really like the gradient pattern on the lower half.

Would have much preferred a solid yellow top that looked very traditional but I'm not going to complain too much.

Really like the kit. Love the v-neck collar ? Green darker than usual and looks a bit like an Australian International kit, but it's still yellow and green and that's all that matters #NCFC
— SK (@StevieKay74) July 6, 2019

I'm very pleased with this ensemble and the return of the stitched crest. Dafabet's D is in green which is nice.

Negatives; the sleeve sponsor #ncfc is obscuring on purpose, still having a betting sponsor, and the odd chevron at the collar #otbc pic.twitter.com/Hye6xLtN0E

Great launch video, but not sure about the kit. Too dark a shade of green and not enough yellow for my liking. I'm sure I'll love it when we take the Premier League by storm though! #ncfc https://t.co/Ppc3kZO6CJ

Canaries players Alex Tettey and Kenny McLean are also set to meet fans and sign autographs at the Jarrold Intersport store in the city centre, in London Street from 1.30pm today - where a new 'fan hub' will be opening later this year.
