Overview The previous season had been Norwich City's most successful to that point, with the club finishing fourth in Division One and reaching the semi-finals of the FA Cup,https://www.fchd.info/NORWICHC.HTM Norwich City Football Club History Database 3 November 2020 so they might have been expected to be in competition to win one or more trophies. This, however, was not to be the case. While Norwich never looked in danger of being relegated from the top flight, they would finish mid-table and be eliminated early from all three cup competitions. Although they defeated Brighton & Hove Albion 5–0 in the Full Members' Cup, they would not win a league game by more than 2–0, which they achieved eight times. Their heaviest defeat was 4–0 away at Tottenham. The highest scoring game was a 4–4 home draw with Southampton.https://www.11v11.com/teams/norwich-city/tab/matches/season/1990/ Norwich City football club match record: 1990 11v11.com AFS Enterprises 4 November 2020 Squad Squad at end of season (5 May 1990)https://www.worldfootball.net/teams/te1388/norwich-city/squad/ Norwich CITY squad 1989/90 worldfootball.net 3 November 2020 yes yes SCO GK Bryan Gunn yes WAL GK Mark Walton yes ENG GK Jon Sheffield yes ENG DF Ian Culverhouse 3rd captain yes WAL DF Mark Bowen yes ENG DF Ian Butterworth captain yes ENG DF Andy Linighan yes ENG DF Adrian Pennock yes ENG DF Andy Theodosiou yes IRL MF Andy Townsend vice-captain yes ENG MF Dale Gordon yes ENG MF Ian Crook yes WAL MF David Phillips yes yes ENG MF Tim Sherwood yes ENG MF Jeremy Goss yes ENG MF Ruel Fox yes DEN MF Henrik Mortensen yes ENG MF David Smith yes ENG MF Jason Minett yes ENG MF Daryl Sutch yes ENG MF Robert Taylor yes SCO FW Robert Fleck yes ENG FW Robert Rosario yes ENG FW Dean Coney yes IRL FW Lee Power Transfers In DatePosNameFromFeeReference4 July 1989DFAndy TheodosiouTottenham HotspurFree1991 Club Directory p.39518 July 1989MFTim SherwoodWatford£175,000Davage Eastwood Platt 2002 32731 July 1989MFDavid PhillipsCoventry City£550,000Davage Eastwood Platt 2002 31015 August 1989GKMark WaltonColchester United£75,000Davage Eastwood Platt 2002 3432 October 1989MFHenrik MortensenAarhus£400,000Davage Eastwood Platt 2002 298 Out DatePosNameToFeeReference8 June 1989MFMike PhelanManchester United£750,0001991 Club Directory p.351Davage Eastwood Platt 2002 30914 August 1989MFTrevor PutneyMiddlesbrough£300,0001991 Club Directory p.365Davage Eastwood Platt 2002 31418 August 1989FWAlan ReevesChester City£10,0001991 Club Directory p.1651 November 1989MFPaul CookWolverhampton Wanderers£250,0001991 Club Directory p.643Davage Eastwood Platt 2002 2354 December 1989MFMike FlynnPreston North End£125,0001991 Club Directory p.46320 March 1990FWMalcolm AllenMillwall£400,0001991 Club Directory p. 373Davage Eastwood Platt 2002 209 Loans in DatePosNameFromUntilReference1 March 1990DFNicky TannerLiverpool31 March 1990Davage Eastwood Platt 2002 336 Loans out DatePosNameToUntilReference22 September 1989GKJon SheffieldAldershot11 November 1989Davage Eastwood Platt 2002 32621 March 1990GKJon SheffieldIpswich TownEnd of season Final table 1989–90 Football League First Division y NOR https://www.11v11.com/league-tables/league-division-one/16-may-1990/ League Division One end of season table for 1989-90 season 11v11.com AFS Enterprises 3 November 2020 Results Division One 1989 8 19 y 1 0–2 https://www.worldfootball.net/report/premier-league-1989-1990-sheffield-wednesday-norwich-city/ Sheffield Wednesday Norwich City Phillips 3Fleck 71 Hillsborough Sheffield 19,142 A.
