It created a 'new word' in the East Anglian lexicon, confirmed the status of potential heroes, rubber-stamped those who were already granted iconic status in Nelson's County – and gave a reason for Norwich City fans to forever smile at their rivals from across the border.

Beating the old enemy is nice. Thrashing them out of sight is even better. And make no mistake, this was a thrashing of the highest order.

City had already beaten Town 4-1 at home in November, 2010, but this was the business end of the season – April 21, 2011. After Ipswich there were just three games to go. City were gunning for automatic promotion and a victory was essential to push them into the top two,

When we awoke on Good Friday, City were six points behind leaders QPR and two ahead of Cardiff, albeit from a game more.

And guess what? It could have been more. Andrew Surman and the obligatory own goal by Gareth McAuley (it was his third og against City) gave the visitors a comfortable lead by half-time. Simeon Jackson added a third on 73 minutes before Jimmy Bullard gave Ipswich some hope shortly afterwards. But Russell Martin and Dani Pacheco got in on the act in the final 10 minutes and that was it.

Once again, following the December 21, 2003 game at Portman Road, the neighbours had lent a helping hand in City's promotion. It was a game witnessed by 29,258 fans – 2,125 in yellow and green – and played on a Thursday evening, rather than just after breakfast on a Sunday.

The atmosphere was, as you'd expect, electric. But only one team was on a charge. From the very beginning, City were the local authority. Four fifths of the ground was silent. One corner ecstatic.
