Eagles down Canaries

Craig Fleming was the unlikely figure to bring an end to the reserves' goal drought as Peter Thorne came through a valuable 90 minutes.

Neither effort was sufficient, however, to prevent a 3-1 reverse at the hands of visitors Crystal Palace.

First team regular Mikele Leigertwood put the Eagles in front on the stroke of half time and then turned provider for Wayne Andrews after the break. Fleming's header past Julian Speroni saw City on the scoresheet for the first time since their win over Watford, but Lewis Grabban added a third.
