After a successful loan spell cut short by injury, Marshall signed permanently for Norwich this summer. The 6ft 3ins stopper had fallen out of favour at Celtic Park under boss Gordon Strachan. He had risen to prominence with the Hoops after starring in Europe, especially against Barcelona, but he lost the number one shirt to Pole Artur Boruc. A frustrating spell in the reserves followed, until Peter Grant took him on loan in January. Although that spell ended after just five games through an ankle injury, Grant had seen enough to go back to his former club and force through a permanent transfer. Peter Grant’s number one target for the summer was finally captured from Celtic in a deal thought to have cost City around £1m. Marshall impressed during a loan spell - cut short by injury in the FA Cup tie at Chelsea – earlier this year and his move to City should solve a problem that has plagued Grant since he took the reins last October. If he produces, it should help cure a few jitters in the City defence.
