    What year did these Christmas memories occur?

    1) A crowd of 24,335 watch Norwich draw 3-3 with Ipswich thanks to Keith Robson's equaliser.
    2) Darren Huckerby's signing is announced before the game as City beat Forest 1-0 live on telly.
    3) In an incredible game, Norwich finish up losing 5-4 against Coventry.
    4) Efan Ekoku is amongst the scorers as City beat spurs 3-1
    5) Dale Gordon scores as the canaries beat West Ham 2-1 in their first ever televised match.
    6) Bryan Gunn breaks his leg.
    7) Two David Nielsen goals are amongst the strikes in a 5-0 away win against Sheffield Wednesday.
    8) A young Teddy Sheringham scores for Millwall but City run out 6-1 winners at Carrow Road.
    9) Simeon Jackson scores a last minute equaliser to give Norwich a share of the spoils against Fulham
    10) A week after getting thumped at West Brom, City are humiliated 6-1 away to Port Vale.
    11) A class finish from Huckerby leads to a 2-1 win over Burnley. Cue premature calls for a promotion push.
    12) City beat CEYMS in their first competitive victory.
    13) Norwich sit top of the top division at Christmas
    14) An 8-0 win at home to Walsall gives City a fantastic Christmas present.
    15) Another abject display at Selhurst park leaves Norwich leaving with a 3-1 defeat. Things are soon to get much worse.
    16) A third defeat in four to a Brighton team featuring a young Bobby Zamora and Steve Sidwell means the promotion push isn't looking so good.
    17) Wins over Huddersfield and Millwall are just the start of a long run of consecutive victories.

    I'm sure we beat them at the Carrot patch (Dozell what a beauty) and prevented them from being top at Christmas!

    Maybe, it was so long ago that (even as an Ipswich fan), my memory is fading...
