Did the Normans cheat 1066?
No, but they got lucky. They were lucky that King Harald Godwinson chose to beat off the Norwegian invasion first, so the English were tired when they faced the Normans. They were also lucky that Harald was killed by an arrow at Hastings, putting a quick end to the battle.
Why did the Normans win the Battle of Stamford Bridge?
The Normans had many advantages over the English. First of all, literally all of the Normans were on horseback whereas the English were on foot. Another reason why was that many of his best troops failed to keep up with Harold and were tired on their march to the south. Also, the Normans were well equipped with better Armour and weaponry. The main reason why the Normans were triumphant over the English was because the Normans pretended to retreat, causing the Saxons to break their shield wall and be easily killed.
