Nice article in the Guardian. Said he's a city fan and makes out like we're going to get some decent money coming our way this summer

"Others have prospered via the same route: Ben Stevenson joined Wolves in January and George Thomas signed for Leicester last summer. This season, 19-year-old Tom Bayliss is making a name for himself at Coventry."

I might be going blind, but where's this reference?

Not just you mate - guessing he must have said that elsewhere ? (although if he did I'd have been a bit hacked off if I was a Norwich fan that he'd come out with that - even if it's inevitable)

Tom Bayliss has his head screwed on, he deliberately makes shit passes to throw the scouts off the trail

Maddison injured playing for Norwich today. Could be an ACL. Hopefully not for his sake and for the sake of our budget next season.

Would be a massive blow if it's his ACL

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Sad for him, sad for us - although if he recovers, it will only delay the cash for a year. Let's hope it's not as bad as those at Carrow Road seem to think. Scan over the next couple of days.

Would make such a difference regardless of league we're in. I swear this club is jinxed.

How did it happen? Did he dive too far?

No his headband fell off and he slipped on it

Kevin, you are a card!

We'd better hope Calum Wilson gets sold on now! We'll have the Madders money next year, plus we've got the play off and Wembley takings to swell the coffers.

I do feel sorry for him. he has developed as many on here have said he would. Looks destined for the prem. If it is an ACL injury, and let’s be honest, it probably is, it will delay his development...
But at the same time are you fucking kidding me?! Unbelievable. How the fuck can this injury fuck us over 3 times in one season!!!???
There. Minor meltdown over. Deep breaths.

 

[wingy]

Seems particularly cruel and unlucky if as I think it's the last game of the season.
Knock ons for him Norwich and us.
Future value affected ?

 

[Adge]

Well, no new 19 plate Jag for Joy and Tim then.

 

[vow]

A scan to be done later in the week after the swelling goes down according to this article.

Great news

Does that make it sound like more a cartelage issue, miniscus tear maybe?

Or it's an MCL tear. That usually takes around 6 - 8 weeks to heal.

 

[Brylowes]

I can’t believe some people think Maddison’s transfer from Norwich (if it happens)
Will have any bearing on our budget for next season.

I expect it will in as much it should protect us from a downside in other areas
Extra FA cup money and play off money this season wont harm either

Exactly. It won't lead to a direct increase in our playing budget but a Maddison sale may mean we're in a stronger position and don't need to sell one of Willis/Bayliss/McNulty/Jones etc. to balance the books for next season.

This is the likely factor in all seriousness. Rather than us needing to sell in order to break even, the ball will be in our court when clubs knock on the door for the likes of the above mentioned players. It also could mean we can extend some contracts that are due to expire in the summer of 2019.

 

[Limey]

Scan much better than feared. 8 weeks. Shouldn't halt a potential sale.
