low bar?
In my lifetime it goes something like:
1) John Deehan (did a decent job in 86/87, but was gone by the end of the following season).
2) Andy Marshall (struggled to achieve everywhere and may not have played at all had Matteo Sereni not been so temperamental. Curiously, after the 5-0 derby in Feb ‘98, he played in 5 more derbies 3 for Nodge, 2 for us and only conceded 1 goal.)
3) Louie Donowa (a John Duncan signing and generally forgotten here; was very lucky not to be either sent off or punched out when trying to cripple Trevor Putney in the 85 Milk Cup semi at Carrow Road
4) Paul Lambert (the only consolation about his tenure here is the memory that he left Norwich on such sour terms after doing so much for them in the early 2010s. Mick McCarthy walked out with better grace than Lambert did from there.)
Nunez could be a really good signing. Intriguing stuff.
Edit - Just remembered that neither Donowa or Lambert came here direct from Norwich. By the same logic, I should have included Joe Royle, who would arguably come top of the list.
Double edit - and how could I forget Clive Baker. I’ve ballsed this right up, haven’t I? [Post edited 27 Aug 23:07]

Donowa didn't actually come here from Norwich. He'd been at Deportivo for a few years in between and we actually got him from Willem II. |  |

They’re usually god awful when crossing the border (even Gibbs is apparently not very good for Scum). I’d love to celebrate this as a big win but history says he’ll probably be sold in Jan and be an obscure pub quiz answer in a decade relating to ITFC |  |

That Clive Baker bloke wasnt too bad.
Clive Woods, although I guess he was a Gothic rather than city |  | | |

I had no idea that Lambert played for Norwich.
But … yeah. No real stand-outs for us.
Maybe this is true in the other direction too. |  | | |

2 of Trevor Putney’s 3 seasons there saw them finish in the top 5 of the old First Division, and Trevor played 80 odd games for them, so must have played his part. | | | |
