04.02.1990	Spurs turned in a masterly display to send the Canaries flying back to Norwich with very little to show from their visit to White Hart Lane. Spurs were on the back foot early on, but Gary Lineker took David Howells' through ball around Norwich goalkeeper Bryan Gunn in the 24th minute to put Tottenham ahead. Howells got his head to a Nayim corner to put Spurs two up before the interval and it was 3-0 shortly after the break, when Lineker struck again, this time scoring in the same fashion thanks to Paul Walsh's pass. With 62 minutes elapsed, Lineker completed his hat trick as he tried to go around Gunn again, but was tripped and the England striker got up to slot the ball home from the penalty spot. Ex-Spurs Mark Bowen and Ian Crook could do little about the final result as could Tim Sherwood, who was at his second club and was later to join Spurs.

03.12.1983	Early goals levelled things in this game at Carrow Road, with Norwich grabbing a late winner to take the points. Ally Dick and Keith Bertschin cancelled each other's goals out inside the first four minutes of the match at Carrow Road. Peter Mendham intercepted Glenn Hoddle's diagonal pass and put Bertschin in on goal and he finished with a low shot from 12 yards out in the third minute. However, within a minute, Dick picked up the ball on the left and went past two defenders before shooting past Chris Woods from a narrow angle to make it 1-1. Barham was denied a shooting opportunity with a fine tackle and Hoddle hit the stanchion with a volley, before Mark Falco made Woods dive to keep out a low shot. In the second half, Mick Channon picked up a yellow card for a foul on Hughton and then played Louis Donowa down the wing and his cross was headed narrowly wide by Bertschin, with Denis van Wyk hitting a 20 yard shot just wide soon afterwards. Steve Archibald brought the best out of Woods at the other end with a header that was very well saved and then should have done better when put clear by Hoddle's pass, but with Woods stranded, the Scot shot wide. With John Devine breaking up a Spurs move, he ran at the middle of the Spurs midfield and gave Mick Channon the chance to nick a winner, by slotting past Ray Clemence, with seven minutes left on the clock, thus ending Tottenham's run of nine games unbeaten. Teams : Norwich City - Woods, Devine, Downs, Mendham, Deehan, Watson, Donowa, Channon, van Wyk, Bertshin, Barham (Godbold) Spurs - R.

20.10.1973	A late equaliser robbed Spurs of a point in this First Division meeting. With David Cross' 85th minute header hitting the bar, Spurs seemed to have got away with a win at Carrow Road, but Doug Livermore was on hand to knock in the rebound with his head to level the game at 1-1.

10.03.1973	A first visit by Norwich City for a First Division match came just seven days after the two teams were to meet in the League Cup Final at Wembley. The result was an emphatic win for Tottenham, despite playing below par. Jimmy Pearce poked home an early goal, but it did not prompt any further goals in the first half, as Spurs struggled to maintain any sort of rhythm. The second half saw Tottenham play better and when Pearce was fouled in the penalty area, Martin Chivers stepped up to convert the spot-kick. It was Chivers again to make it 3-0 when Martin Peters and Pearce combined to set him up with a looping header over Kevin Keelan from eight yards out at the Park Lane end.

David Cross' early goal gave the Canaries the advantage at Carrow Road, but half an hour in, Ralph Coates fed the ball to Alan Gilzean on the left wing, who crossed for Martin Chivers to equalise by beating Kevin Keelan from twelve yards out. While Spurs had a lot of possession in the second half of their first First Division visit to Norwich, it was City who took both points with Cross hitting his second with a powerful shot after 77 minutes somewhat against the run of play.

01.10.1938	Standing for the national anthem before the game, to give thanks for the Munich talks, which were thought to have avoided war, this was the last match at White Hart Lane between the two teams before the outbreak of hostilities.
