Worst case of scapegoating at Norwich

Young fullback, made 2 mistakes and was booed off at halftime. Didn't re-appear for 2nd half that day and it took months for him to regain any semblance of confidence.

Turned out to be the best header of a ball, and sharpest neatest tackler I remember from the championship at that time.

Name of Darren Kenton.
