Those "judging" comments mid-season have come back to bite him hard...

but it doesn't really tackle the problem we've got does it?

Here it is in full for those that haven't got a login..

CITY today confirmed that first team coach Steve Foley's contract has been terminated with immediate effect.

The move comes as the Canaries seek to freshen up the coaching team at Colney - and a new first team coach is expected to be appointed over the summer.

Foley spent ten years at Norwich, joining the coaching staff in 1996 during Mike Walker's second spell as Manager.

Current City boss Nigel Worthington paid this tribute to the former Colchester United stalwart: "Steve has made a very important contribution to Norwich City over the years, working to bring young players through the ranks and helping with day-to-day coaching duties with the first team squad.

"I would like to place on record the sincere gratitude of myself and everybody at Carrow Road and Colney for all of Steve's hard work and enthusiasm over the years - and wish him all the very best for the future.

City Chairman Roger Munby explained the Club is looking to bring new ideas and input into the coaching set-up at Colney.

He commented: "It's been a tough decision but the Board feels the time is right to make a positive step with a new appointment to freshen up the coaching set-up which will add to our football club.

"Steve's input has been invaluable over the ten years he has been with us - and on behalf of the Board I think it's important to recognise that and to wish him every success going forward."

Foley himself thanked the staff and the fans for their support during his ten years with the Canaries.
"I have had ten really enjoyable years at Norwich City, picking up some great memories and making lots of friends along the way. I would like to thank the staff at Carrow Road and Colney and of course the Canary supporters for their encouragement and backing over the years."
