    Surely it would have to be silly money in this window, like £35m silly. £20-£25 is nowt with the sell on, and we’ve said no to January move any way. Unless it’s a loan straight back till the end of the season.

    Yeah big disappointment
    He’s lost all respect now from me and I’m sure a few others
    His previous performances pale into significance

    I hope not but a loan back would be a big help. I can’t see him going to a struggling side, no point. So a regular top 8 side with better players would help us.

    Yes, the kind of thing that goes on at all clubs.

    There's nothing that justifies turning his back on his team mates and the supporters.

    Will score against us and do the "fingers in ears" celebration that shows him to be the bell end he is

    100% this if he didn't do what the club said he did it's defamation of character and he could sue the club

    We didn't play with a 10 on Saturday and personally I hope we continue like that, the 433 fits our squad better. Pritchard is a pure 10, he can't play anywhere else really so there's no real point carrying him in the squad if we aren't going to play a system with his role in it.

    People can mention us losing more experience but with his exit from Huddersfield and now here is he really the best mentor for our younger players?

    He started more, performed better and contributed more after Mowbray was sacked so it's an interesting move. They need to hope Mowbray doesn't pick him over the likes of George Hall when he is fit.

    It's done, we get a bit of money and his wages off the books, he gets a pay rise and a longer deal. Case closed.

    He'll absolutely score against us in a few weeks but in the long run we will be better off I am sure of that. As I said the other day, Speakman hasn't been proved wrong by any outgoing player since he has been here.

    I also read somewhere today that he was driving to Brighton years ago to sing for them( everything agreed)and changed his mind on the way and went to Norwich instead. So if true he really is a dubious character.
