George Burley has urged Crystal Palace fans to have faith in him.
On-loan defenders Julian Bennett and Anthony Gardner both scored their first goals for the club to seal a 2-1 victory at Norwich.
Palace are still in the bottom three and Burley said: "I have a rebuilding job to do but don't forget I've been in the play-offs six times and had one promotion from this league.
"When I went to Derby it was a similar situation. I had to make sure we stayed up and that's the priority now with Palace.
"But in my second season at Derby we finished in the top six and it would be nice to think we could do the same here.
"This result should breed confidence within the squad."
