2005: Dean Ashton joins Norwich City

Norwich City spent a then club-record fee to sign striker Dean Ashton from Crewe Alexandra.

Ashton marked his home debut by scoring against Middlesbrough as the Canaries came from 4-1 down in the 79th minute to earn a 4-4 draw.

He ended the season with seven goals from 16 Premier League appearances, but Norwich were relegated and Ashton moved to West Ham United in January 2006.
