morty 0 Posted February 3, 2017 Our under 23 academy coach is set to leave, this month, for a new role with a Premier league club.Sounds like we''re having a right old clear out[;)]http://www.canaries.co.uk/news/article/2016-17/dmitri-halajko-norwich-city-3553996.aspx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AJ 1,218 Posted February 3, 2017 Beat me to it - a massive shame as from what I''ve heard he is very well respected and well liked at the club.I wonder who the Premier League side he''s been tempted by is? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its not just the players heads that are turned once the pay cuts kick in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lessingham Canary 99 Posted February 3, 2017 He''s done a good job and is stepping up a level- wish him well. Not necessarily so, could be going to Hull City to be a mini bus driver for u/12''s, so technically joining a premier league club but not a step up ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indy_Bones 441 Posted February 3, 2017 Think he''s done a good job to be honest, and appears to be well liked and well respected, but you can''t argue against the lure of the Premier League.As for Adams to return - absolutely in favour of that, thought he did an excellent job in the role last time around, left as manager with a degree of dignity and without any real acrimony (at least compared to some of the shocking abuse directed at Gunny), and very much understands and fits in with the club ethos and expectations, almost a complete no-brainer if the option is there IMHO.

norfolkbroadslim 223 Posted February 3, 2017 Adams is still at the club isn''t he?However, come on down Darren Huckerby! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,218 Posted February 3, 2017 Either Hux or Adams are great shouts. I actually wouldn''t mind either of these taking over the reins. Adams especially did a cracking job before, and as he loves the club, would probably be happy to do so again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lessingham Canary 99 Posted February 3, 2017 Adams is a decent shout, and probably the most likely, unless AN wants to give it to Frankie............. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matt Juler 148 Posted February 3, 2017 Those are all the Youth positions. I believe Adams'' role was to oversee all the City players out on loan. No idea however whether he''s still doing that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nuff Said 5,089 Posted February 3, 2017 I thought he''d left, but all a quick Google shows is some talk of his being in the running to manage Oldham in June last year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,218 Posted February 3, 2017 I''m not sure, last I heard he was indeed Loans Manager, but he was appointed that back in 2015 so not sure if he is still there or not. It certainly hasn''t been announced if he has left so would assume he is still there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
