Grant Denies Fish Fear - Ipswich Town News
Norwich City manager Peter Grant has denied that he has a phobia of fish. The ex-Celtic man says his reaction to a salmon placed in his bed by former team-mate Paolo Di Canio was simply because it looked "like a shark's head".
Grant told the official Norwich site: "I'm aware of what Paolo wrote, but the truth of the matter was that it was more like a shark's head he'd put in my bed.
"I think most people would have been a bit startled by it. But I don't have a fish phobia - I've got absolutely no problem with fish at all."
TWTD is not convinced by Grant's fish phobia denial, however, just in case it's sharks which cause the Norwich boss more of a concern, we've added a cut-out one to our downloadable fish page.
