Again, to be fair to Worthy ...

... he got some decent games out of Henderson during the 2003-2004 season despite the fact that Hendo really isn't very good.

We've finally got some decent youngsters coming through now, three years after NW left: I doubt that owes anything to NW but you never know.

Agree with you, though - Peter Grant was the worst thing ever to happen to Norwich. Fucking catastrophic.
