2004–05 Norwich City F.C. season
season of football team

The 2004–05 season was the 103rd season in the history of Norwich City. It was the club's first season in the Premier League for nine years, following promotion from the First Division in 2003–04. However, they were immediately relegated back to the second tier, notably without having won a competitive match away from home during the whole season. Despite being in pole position to stay up going into the final match of the season against Fulham, a 6–0 defeat at Craven Cottage sealed their fate. This article shows statistics and lists all matches played by the club during the season.

Why this record matters
The phrase “season of football team” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 15, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q4603761. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2004 and 2003.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
