    Club has got to do whats best for them, he has to do what's best for him but ill always be on my clubs side when a player refuses to play

    Hes not quite the snake that neil was but hes not far off it and his time with us will be tinted in my mind

    I just hate these guys in such privileged positions refusing to play the game we all love

    He has a contract with the club till the summer, he signed it !!! So play the game instead of sulking because he wants to be away. A lot of players have wanted to leave that's part of football, but refusing to play is disgraceful behaviour

    He got himself into a position where the crowd were singing his name wanting him on the pitch good luck if he ever gets to play against us in the future.
    Doubt he will tho because he will no doubt go to a ****e club and be a bit part player because he can’t last 90 mins and he’s not very consistent go **** yaself pritch.

    He's been the best midfielder at the club for months, in a time where we are severely lacking experience. For the club to offer him a year makes no sense. Unless they have something up their sleeve then I'll eat my words.

    I think there’s two separate things here. 1) the decision to not offer him a long term deal and 2) his decision to refuse to play.

    both are linked but separate. It’s possible to think it’s poor of him whilst also disagreeing with what the club have done

    We already looked a quicker paced, slicker, more coherent team today without him.

    Not even close to the Alex Neil stakes and I will be sad to see Pritchard go but refusing to play is a ****s trick and pisses in the face of fans. We should have the option not to pay him.

    He has been good for a month, thats all. We shouldn't be offering contracts to players because they play a few good games. Look i like pritchard as a player but he is so inconsistent n isnt the superstar some fans make out.

    At the end of the day he refused to play for us, hes ruined his time with us imo

    Some will forgive him but i cant forgive professional footballers refusing to play a game - while happily taking a wage from us

    I respectfully disagree, think he's been great for us. I don't agree with him not playing but I don't blame him either. There's definitely better ways to get a move but it's down now and we move on.

    Pritchard could have told the club he wants away without refusing to play, it’s a c#nts trick and lost all respect from me.

    "Immediate". Be interesting to see how much Mowbray has to do with this. Funny how he's heavily liked with Birmingham.

    Club have a decision to make, tell him he is staying or get a fee from Birmingham.

    No way the club should release him after spitting his dummy out to get his own way. The unprofessional little prick.

    Agreed , but he has let himself down badly by refusing to play today.
    I had a lot of time for Pritch, but he has lost my respect
