Norris Goal Celebration Slammed

David Norris is at the centre of controversy following his goal celebration in Ipswich Town?s win at the weekend.

Norris, who scored the only goal of the game against Blackpool, appeared to cross his arms in a handcuff gesture, in what was supposedly a personal message to former team mate Luke McCormick.

McCormick was jailed for seven years after two children were killed when his vehicle collided head on with another car. Norris and McCormick were team mates at Plymouth Argyle last season.

Norris today insisted that there was nothing in the celebration: “I would like to stress that I made no handcuff gesture or personal message to Luke McCormick. I can see how my actions may have been misinterpreted and for that and any distress this may have caused and for that I am truly sorry.”
