Norwich still had a chance in the league. On August 16th they were 5th in the table with matches in hand but losing to the Tigers made it all the more difficult. Alas the Tigers hopes were also dashed as the Bristol 'Bulldogs' romped to their second successive title before gaining promotion to the first division.
