On this day - 22 January 1989

Robert Fleck scored a memorable goal for Norwich City as they beat Millwall 3-2 at The Den.

Goals from Ian Butterworth and Mark Bowen had given City a 2-0 lead but the Lions got it back to 2-2, with Tony Cascarino and Jimmy Carter on the scoresheet.

Fleck won it for the Canaries late-on with a stunning volley from outside the 18-yard box.

The game was broadcast live on network television, so it was a rare opportunity for City fans to see a match if they hadn't made the away trip.

Former Norwich City striker Adrian Coote was BBC Radio Norfolk's guest summariser as the Canaries beat West Brom 2-0 at Carrow Road.

The win puts City up to eighth in the Championship table and two points off the play-off places.

Here's what Coote had to say at full-time:

"We're talking about a Norwich team that are making progress, making strides in the league, in results and in performances.

"I just think it's been a really, really great performance. It's what the fans have needed, it's what the players have needed and it will give them confidence to build on."

He continued, "I know people say it's too early to be talking about the play-offs, but lets give some of these young lads some play-off experience, let's strive for that and see how far we go."

Norwich City host West Bromwich Albion in the Championship on Saturday (15.00 GMT).

The two sides last met on Boxing Day (26 December) 2023 in a game the Baggies won 1-0.

City were reduced to 10 men after 30 minutes when Borja Sainz was sent off.

Head coach David Wagner said that incident did have a big factor on how his side fared, but the bulk of the preparation for the game is already done as the first meeting was three weeks ago:

We asked for your views on Norwich City's transfer dealings so far in January.

On Friday it was announced that midfielder Adam Forshaw had signed for Plymouth.

Here's what you had to say:

Sam - Absolute rubbish. It's an opportunity to strengthen the midfield and get a proper Tettey-type CDM in. This would allow players like Nunez and Sara to push forward and play in a more attacking role.

Jeremy - After the win against Hull City, I think Norwich City have done well. I think they should sign more experienced players that can score goals.

David - Slow so far. Springett to the Cobblers on loan and Forshaw to Plymouth. Most things seem to revolve around Jonny Rowe - the lad has said he will stay till the summer and then talk with the club. Premier League clubs have been sniffing about, but I think he will stay.

Adam - Seems the club aren’t keen to spend much, if any, money this transfer window as they have little faith in Wagner and are waiting til the summer to start a refresh. They’re banking on fans sticking around after three abject seasons with very little communication and absolutely no clear vision as to what the project is. Apathy has set in a big way.

David - The new head of football Mr Knapper (Norwich's sporting director) is like the invisible man. There does not seem to be a plan and we are playing poorly. The club needs to wake up and smell the coffee.

Ben - Regarding the departure of Forshaw - isn’t this starting to get embarrassing for the recruitment team? A massive list of write-off signings over the last few years. The recruitment needs to be held account for it a lot more than they are.
