He's not even going to get played at Norwich, so surely, SURELY, they could have at least let him have ONE LAST FRICKING GAME WHERE HE COULD RECEIVE HIS MEDAL?

Yeah, I now hope they get relegated next season. Must be a kick in the balls for Barnett. Now I want to sign him even more.


I still dont think hed have automatically been entitled to a medal even after playing against Hull and Bolton unfortuntelty


I know, but he would have been able to play in the game, and also join in with the celebrations. He would have been on the list for the additional medals, and I think if he played against Bolton and Hull, he would have had the minimum 10 requirements.



i know for a fact swell he payed £700 for his family to come to watch the game and they can't even watch him now.


Probably nothing for him, but that shows it meant a great deal. He was very important for the club, became one of my favourite players, and I really hope he joins us now.

Ah well, at least on his achievements he will have 'Won Promotion to Premier League with Cardiff City' and 'Championship Winners 2012/2013', whether he gets a medal or not.

Its a shame it has happened as he very strong during our run in to promotion but as other posts said he's Norwich's player and they didn't have to extend our loan to him :(

All I got to say is thanks Leon it was great seeing you celebrating on the pitch with your kids hope you get your medal :ayatollah:

Ben Nugent to get a run in :ayatollah:

"Now that City have secured the title and promotion manager Malky Mackay has allowed him to return to Norwich, allowing young defender Ben Nugent the chance to play in the home clash with Bolton".

According to this statement it seems Malky prefers to play young Ben Nugent for the last two games now the title is wrapped up as it is implying MM allowed him to return. :roll:

Its a shame he has gone. He deserved to be involved Saturday and celebrating on the pitch with his family. I hope he get a winning medal :ayatollah:

On the other side of the coin I hope he plays all of Norwich's remaining games. That way we can see if he is up to task of premier league before we bid for him.

Best of luck Leon, hope to see you next season :ayatollah:

Club probably looking to put a bit of positive "spin" on it. The Norwich site says he was recalled.

Still, he's norwich's player - so lets just be thankful to them for extending his loan long enough for us to win the title. :ayatollah:

He's Norwich's player. We have no say in if he stays or not. Malky, Tan, us, we can't do anything about it.

I hope he at least makes it back for the open top bus parade. He did a great job for us at a vital time of the season . :ayatollah: :malky:

It really doesn't matter. We are promoted and as champions. It will be good for Nugent to get some game time. It's a shame that he can't be there for the medals though. I hope we sign him for next season.

Hi There

Norwich fan here.

Congrats on the promotion. Malky will get one hell of a welcoming when you boys come to Carrow Road next year. Top Top Man.

Regarding Barnett.

I'm pretty sure it will have something to do with the fact Michael Turner picked up a knock against Reading last week. We had to replace him with Ryan Bennett (who seems to now be in trouble with the FA)

My only conclusion is Hughton wants Barnett back as cover for Turner and Bennett who might not be able to play some vital games for us in the last part of the season.

I hear he's made quite the impact at Cardiff and look forward to seeing him play again. He and Bassong formed a reasonably good partnership earlier in the season, so I wouldn't be surprised if we play him at Stoke.

As for his long term future, unsure. We've heard a lot of rumors of him settling with you guys. So only time will tell.

Cheers and once again looking forward to going to Carrow Road. I had heard we want to sign him for next season on a permanent deal.

Barnett was recalled, as when he signed his loan extension there was a 24hour recall on him as Annis said on here at the time.

Nice one Annis :ayatollah:

Shame for Leon as he has played superb since that one bad pass on his debut against Wednesday but good chance for Ben Nugent to be part of the team during a historic season ending :ayatollah:
