The tale of three players

[supaseagull]

1. Liam Bridcutt - Joined as a squad player last year on a 1 year contract. Played a blinder throughout the season and has just enjoyed a good pre-season...Will be walking out tomorrow to the newest and one of the most state of the art stadiums in the country to a crowd of 17,000 cheering him on.

2. Elliott Bennett - One of the players of the season for his previous club and loved by the fans of the club he left. In one months time he will be walking out at Stamford Bridge, probably pinching himself that he is playing in the Premier League against one of the top clubs in Europe.

3. Glenn Murray - Top scorer of a championship side and best season ever in league football. Had a turbulent pre-season where the supporters of his new club have already begun criticising him for a lack of passion and rapport with home fans. Will be walking out in two weeks against Peterborough for his new club against a team he played against in League 1 in a relegation 6 pointer!

Isn't football a funny old game

There is no way Norwich are a smaller club than us

1) Bridcutt's initial contract was only for 6 months but was extended until the end of the season, then was given a 2 year deal in the summer

Quite right, Norwich are very well supported team with a long history of topflight Football with a smattering of Euro Football thrown in. Is comments like this about how massive we are which is embarrassing and gives us a bad name!I am not saying that we cannot be considered as a team like Norwich at some point but we need to be a little realistic.

Who cares. They are in my eyes, but then so is every other club in the world.

2. Squad player

Unlikely, for what they paid for him, Lambert will be expecting to have him on the teamsheet every week. Let's wait and see eh? When Crofty went there someone here suggested the best he could hope for was to warm the bench a few times. He started 44 games (missed 2 through suspension), never appeared from the bench and scored 8 goals as they totally creamed the division, almost ended up their player of the season.
