Matthew Halliday (born 23 January 1987) is an English footballer who currently plays as a defender for Norwich City.
Halliday was born in Norwich and joined Norwich City as a trainee. In February 2006 he joined Hereford United on loan, although due to him still being a trainee this was technically classed as work experience [1]. He made the bench at Hereford, but did not make a first team appearance for the Bulls.
Along with fellow trainees Andrew Cave-Brown, Robert Eagle and Andrew Fisk, Halliday was offered a professional contract in April 2006 [2]. All four, plus a further trainee Michael Spillane signed their professional contracts on July 1, 2006 [3].
Halliday made his debut for the first team as a late substitute in a League Cup match against Torquay United on August 23, 2006, when he replaced injured captain Adam Drury.
He was unable to break into the first team regularly in the 2006/07 season however and joined Torquay on loan on January 25, 2007 [4]. He made his league debut, for Torquay, on February 10, 2007, playing in the 1-0 defeat away to Lincoln City. He played three times for Torquay before returning to Norwich at the end of his one-month loan.
