Former Celtic youngster Mark Fotheringham signed for Norwich on January 31st 2007. Dundee-born Fotheringham was a free agent and had been training with Rangers since he quit Swiss club Aarau, but the Glasgow giants were unable to offer him first-team football, paving the way for him to move to Carrow Road. He signed until the end of the 2006/7 season with an option for an additional year.

Fotheringham played three times for Celtic, graduating from the youth ranks at Parkhead. In 2003, he moved to his hometown Dundee F.C.. After two years with the Dark Blues making 51 appearances and scoring 4 goals, Fotheringham moved to Germany with SC Freiburg, where he played for a season. Fotheringham moved to Swiss side FC Aarau in 2006 but left midway through the season.

Fotheringham is known for his trademark "Fozzy Flick", a move involving flicking the ball high over his - and his opponents head - then running round them and regaining possession.

He made his City debut in the 2-1 home win over Leeds United on 3rd February 2007 and finished the season with 15 goals and a one year extension to his contract.

He scored his first goal for Norwich in the 5-2 Carling Cup first round victory over Barnet on 14th August 2007.
