even unofficially it was under Grant that he came to us

Worthy tried to sign him during the summer before he got sacked (iirc)

Worthy got sacked at the beginning of October, Chadders came to us on loan 1 month into Grant's reign and signed permanantly the following January

same scouts = same players, but ultimately nothign to do with Worthy

- Success - scored lots of goals and broke even on him. (NCFC) - Ottosson Foxtrot, May 8, 17:01:28
  - How could anyone ever regard Earnie as a bad signing? (NCFC) - Old Git, May 8, 17:10:05
    - wrong signing, badly timed, didn't fit the squad, didn't do us much good really (NCFC) - pants, May 8, 17:20:13
      - We needed a goalscorer = he scored goals (NCFC) - romayellow, May 8, 17:44:11
        
        yeah, and imagine someone having to inherit a that squad without him? (NCFC) - pants, May 8, 17:45:41
        
        Grant by that point was signing a lot of 'his' players (NCFC) - romayellow, May 8, 17:50:49
        
        I think Hamilton was worse than Grant (NCFC) - Old Git, May 8, 17:54:52
        
        Agree to a degree (NCFC) - romayellow, May 8, 17:59:12

        Righto - Well what on earth (NCFC) - romayellow, May 8, 18:01:09
        
        that anyone who took the job when he did, had a mountain to climb (NCFC) - pants, May 8, 18:04:05
        
        BUT he was (NCFC) - romayellow, May 8, 18:07:09
        
        that's because you've deserved it (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 8, 17:57:22
        
        As I learnt to expect, and it's never stopped, (NCFC) - pants, May 8, 17:57:11
        
        SUPER PETER GRANT (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 8, 17:53:42
        
        nah he just WAS the worst norwich manager ever (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 8, 17:47:12
        
        to be fair he never saw the impact earnie had (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 8, 17:45:25
      - yeah 27 goals in 45 appearances was poor (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 8, 17:23:22
        
        15 love (n/m) (NCFC) - Tomblander, May 8, 17:25:03
        
        For the team as a whole, very much the wrong signing (NCFC) - Iwan Husarmi, May 8, 17:30:45
        
        so you'd rather he scored less (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 8, 17:33:28
        
        Er....yes. Are you unfamiliar with the concept of "team"? (n/m) (NCFC) - Iwan Husarmi, May 8, 17:35:43
        
        not really (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 8, 17:39:13
        
        There's no "I" in team (NCFC) - Old Git, May 8, 17:37:19
        
        I really can't be arsed to write an essay about it (NCFC) - Iwan Husarmi, May 8, 17:53:29

        I'm not (NCFC) - Iwan Husarmi, May 8, 19:06:45
        
        but he didn't... (NCFC) - blindasabat, May 8, 19:29:26
        
        See again, Chadders is a worthy signing for me (NCFC) - pants, May 8, 19:41:30
        
        even unofficially it was under Grant that he came to us (NCFC) - blindasabat, May 8, 21:10:40
        
        I think of Brown as something to do with Worthy too (NCFC) - pants, May 8, 19:21:33
