Borja Sainz: Norwich City top scorer banned for six matches for spitting

Norwich City's top scorer Borja Sainz is suspended for six matches after admitting to spitting at Sunderland's Chris Mepham in December.

Cordoba sent off for nasty tackle in the same game.

Last month McClean got a 4 match ban for a cowardly elbow on a QPR player.
Gunn got fined for a tantrum in the tunnel at half time.

Getting a reputation for poor discipline when things don't go their way.

Perhaps but imo we are less attractive than most of the other clubs with whom Barry has been linked.

One obvious difference is that most of the other clubs are in the thick of the promotion fight, which I imagine is more of an attraction to a player - and the parent club - than going to a club who appear to be heading for a mid-table finish. In addition, we are thought of by many of being a long-ball team, which doesn't fit the bill for many clubs today.

We seem to look after our loan signings well, but are all the other clubs mentioned any worse than us in that regard?🤷
