A very young reserve side failed to get on the scoresheet but acquitted themselves as well as their equally youthful opponents.

With both sides picked with an eye on midweek action for the first teams, as well as the Canaries' well-documented injury problems, the match was as short on goal threatening action as it was on names recognisable to outsiders.

Chris Martin wasted the home side's best chance after being sent clear by Andrew Fisk, while Kevin Thornton wa similarly profligate later in the second half for the visitors, missing after having taken the ball past keeper Joe Lewis.
