Talking of which ... FOUR Norwich players were among 30 people taken ill following a barbecue at the club's training ground at the training ground this week.
Chef Delia Smith is of course a director of the club and she insists it was outside contractors to blame.
A statement from the club read: "City confirm a number of its staff, including four senior professional players, have been taken ill following a social event on Sunday.
"Players, staff and their families attended an annual informal summer event at the club's Colney training centre, following which approximately 30 people who were at the event have suffered symptoms including sickness and diarrhoea."
By the way ... Delia was an Ipswich fan during her early days on TV. Something we don't hear about too often these days.
