Norwich City
Eadie was a product of Norwich City's youth system and made his debut in a UEFA Cup match against Vitesse Arnhem in September 1993.[1]
He missed the start of the 1999–2000 season through injury, and in December 1999, as a result of Norwich's financial problems, he was sold to Leicester City F.C. for almost £3 million.[1]
Leicester City
He was to only play 40 matches for Leicester due to injuries, and he retired in the summer of 2003, aged 28.[2]
International career
Between 1994 and 1997, Eadie made seven appearances for the England U21 team, scoring two goals.[3][4]
In the summer of 1997, Eadie was called up to the England squad for the Tournoi de France.[1]
Retirement
In 2002 he was voted an inaugural member of the Norwich City Hall of Fame, which was established to celebrate the club's centenary. In an interview for the Norwich City matchday programme on 13 August 2005, Eadie stated that he had found retirement difficult, particularly as many of his friends were still playing professional football. It was reported in July 2012 that he had fought severe depression and suffered panic attacks.[5] Darren now co-presents The Mustard Show, a weekday evening magazine TV show for Norwich-based Mustard TV.
