1992–93 Norwich City F.C. season

During the 1992–93 English football season, Norwich City F.C. competed in the inaugural season of the FA Premier League.

Season summary

Despite being predicted to struggle in the new Premier League, Norwich maintained a surprise title challenge throughout the season, even topping the table with six games left to play, before falling away in the last few weeks of the season to finish third, behind Manchester United and Aston Villa. Despite this, third was Norwich's highest-ever finish in the top flight. As Arsenal had already qualified for the Cup Winners' Cup through their FA Cup triumph, Norwich would be competing in the UEFA Cup next season - their first foray into European competition, a case of fourth time lucky as they had missed on playing in Europe despite a League Cup victory and two top-five league finishes from 1985 to 1989 as a result of the ban on English clubs in European competitions due to the Heysel disaster.
