Over 400 people turned up at Old Trafford on Thursday evening to pay tribute to Norman, who played 274 games and scored 67 goals for the Reds over eight seasons between 1982 and 1989.
His ex-captain and good friend Bryan Robson was among numerous former team-mates in attendance at the charity dinner organised by the Association of Former Manchester United Players (AFMUP).
Speaking beforehand, Norman said it was a “massive honour” to be recognised by his former colleagues and other legends of the club.
Norman famously scored the winner for United in the 1985 FA Cup final against Everton, curling the ball past Neville Southall in extra-time after Kevin Moran’s sending off had reduced the Reds to 10 men.
