There has been plenty to grumble about in the wake of Norwich City’s 1-1 FA Cup draw with Bristol Rovers last weekend. I think of Max Aarons being handed a debut against Stevenage in the League Cup – and how that expediated his development. And of course, how could you forget Adam Idah netting an FA Cup treble against Preston at just 18 years of age? But against Bristol Rovers, our next generation of young talent was nowhere to be seen (with the exception of Kellen Fisher). If we want to continue to attract the best young talent, they need to know first-team opportunities will be there for the taking.
