Norwich manager Glenn Roeder has appointed former Newcastle reserve-team coach Adam Sadler as senior coach at Carrow Road.Roeder moved quickly to bring the 29-year-old in to his staff to replace former assistant manager Lee Clark and the new coach is keen to get going.

The former Manchester United trainee goalkeeper said: "I'm absolutely delighted to join the club.

"It's a club with great tradition that is very highly regarded within the world of football.

"The set-up is very professional and the whole atmosphere of the place is superb."

Roeder said: "He is young, he is only 29 but age is never a barrier for me. If you are good enough you are old enough and he is certainly good enough to fill the void that Lee Clark has left by going off to Huddersfield."
