JAMIE REDKNAPP'S VIEW

"In football you want to see a bit of sense. Why did they sack Chris Hughton and give Neil Adams the hand grenade of those last five games? I do not know. Nobody expected him to pick up a point, he started changing the system but it was very difficult.

"The real problem has been players like Leroy Fer, who has ability, and Ricky van Wolfswinkel, who have been a major disappointment. Norwich spent money on forwards and it did not work out like they wanted. For them to go down would have surprised me at the start of the year but when Hughton went it was inevitable. And it is a shame, because it is a nice club."
