I was just looking at Adam Drury's appearance stats (sub appearances in brackets) for us and noticed the 1 appearance under the 'European/Others' heading. Anyone have an idea what this may have been? Total (Club) - 351 (4) League - 320 (4) FA Cup - 17 (0) League Cup - 13 (0) European/Others -1 (0)
Interesting Drury Statistic - Yesterday he became the oldest play in the history of the Premier League (excluding goalkeepers).... ...aged 72 years and 129 days. The previous record was held by Dave!
Talking of drury, is there any news on a testamonial as he's in his 11th season if I'm correct in thinking??
He must surely have earned one, but I thought testimonials usually only happened when a player retires or leaves the club?
He's having one at the end of the season after he's completed his 10th full year with the club. It was announced at the start of the season, no word on who it'll be against although my money is on one of Peterborough, Celtic or Dortmund
Indeed they have, Drury used to live in the same village and I used to deliver papers down both Drury Lane and the street where he lived.
Paul Ince has Governor Court named after him, even though his the only person who used that nickname. I don't think they'll have a lane but if he hangs around in Norwich some civic duty perhaps Sheriff of Norwich? Now Gunn's gone.
