Rupert Murdoch. He’s the guy that was responsible for bringing Sky TV to our screens in 1989 remember? He’s a guy who has been s a major investor in the film industry and internet during the past decade and boasts a fortune of around 5 billion dollars to his name.

He’s also the guy who was responsible for bringing Stephen Elliott to Carrow Road this month.

A big congratulations to academy-protégée Tom Adeyemi, who was this week named Championship Manager Apprentice of the Year award for Coca-Cola League One at the 2010 Football League awards incorporating FourFourTwo’s Top 50 football league players….and breathe.

Tom picking his award up at a gala dinner at Grosvenor House, Park Lane…very nice indeed.

So just why did the City youngster deserve such an accolade? Well, Tom isn’t your typical footballer – no siree, he’s actually a rather clever boy! Tom managed to achieve A and A* grades at GCSE, and is on course to do so in his A Levels – all whilst making the odd appearance as part of the City’s first team squad.

LEAGUE ONE: HUDDERSFIELD 1 – NORWICH CITY 3

(Goals – Huddersfield; Trotman 2. City; Holt 69, Elliot 74 & 85)

Ok, so I feel like I’ve said this a lot of the past few months, but really…what a big, big win this was today!!

On a day when Leeds, Charlton and Colchester all lost, City came from a goal behind to extend their lead at the top to seven points, and open up a twelve point gap between themselves and third place. All in all, a very, very good day for City fans.
