Best League Win: 8-1
v Millwall 16/01/1932 Division 2
Last meeting: Norwich City
2, Plymouth Argyle 1 (December 4,
2007): The Canaries survived a nervous
finale as they finally gained revenge
over Plymouth. Having taken an early
lead through loan striker Ched Evans
and then looked to have been in control
when Darren Huckerby netted a late
penalty, it was a backs-to-the-wall
finish as they contrived to concede
a late goal. Referee Paul Taylor's
final whistle brought a huge cheer
from a packed crowd – the second
best of the season – the relief
around Carrow Road palpable. Full
Match Report
Last Norwich away win:
23/11/1963 Plymouth 1 (Lord), Norwich
2 (Bryceland, Davies)
Chances: For much
of last campaign, Sturrock’s
men looked like they might crash the
play-off party until falling away.
However, there is a slight sense of
over-achievement in Devon and they
will be hard pushed to recreate such
a good season. Keeping Hungarian Peter
Halmosi at the cub will be key and
they will prove difficult to beat
at Home Park, especially if Jermaine
Easter finds his scoring boots.
