    There he is. Straight in there. Get it right though. I said I couldn't validate the 09 thing. Was just s random text that he was carrying a knock and may not start. But again, I said I couldn't validate it.

    Don't let that get in the way of you diving in, trying to score points.

    Based upon this then he did refuse to play, yet @Prehab26 has just said the club told him not to play - despite the statement at the time that he had made himself unavailable for the Stoke game and subsequent games!

    sorry mate but if your saying the club told
    him not to play pritchard could take them to the cleaners after the statement the put it,
    which isn't the case

    he rocked up on friday before the match and took all his gear, he was well liked by all the player but that's doesn't he should get a let of cos he's well liked , mowbray has also had a massive part to play in this and his agent,

    What just doesn't ring true is that there are two totally contradictory scenarios.

    In one Neil and Mowbray are the good guys forced out by Speakman who runs the club, picks the team, lies through his teeth and pushes players into mental health issues with his behaviour.

    The other is that we've attracted, and keep attracting, good players who are happy to sign new contracts and extensions. We are trusted by massive clubs, like Chelsea and Man Utd, to bring them into a good professional set up.
    So much so that Amad said it was the only club he'd go to.

    People love gossip, doesn't mean there's any basis for it ...

    ... imo, on social media, there's almost always loads of smoke without even the spark of a fire.

    There will be fault on both side. Prehab is pushing the "pritchard was mistreated" angle because he hates Speakman. The truth is somewhere in the middle in terms of how as at fault. Maybe the club didn't treat him with the respect he felt he deserved, maybe the club thought they were being open and honest by effectively giving him 12 months' notice. Who knows? It's over now thankfully

    TBH mate, I care more about whether our players are being manipulated, bullied and driven to mental health issues ...

    ... than whether we had to accommodate aways supporters in a cup tie.

    The latter is stupidity, the former would be a serious internal problem within the club.

    I'm just amazed that a recidivist whiner is given the benefit of the doubt over the club.

    Just as Neil and Mowbray are being used as evidence of how toxic the club is.

    And, yes, I'll shut up about it now <laugh>

    I think its time to move on, we seem to have moved on from the BCB fiasco so let's put it all to bed to keep people happy.

    Would you have given him that to stay here, I doubt many would.

    I certainly wouldn't, that money can be much better spent.

    If Speakman signed a 30 year old on those terms, who can't last 90 minutes, this place would explode.

    Yes, lets move on.

    I'd have stopped days ago mate but people keep saying 'lets move on' ...

    ... then coming back on for one last dig at the club.

    If people are making serious accusations, about the club, they should back them up ...

    ... not be vague and give out bits of rumours posted as hard facts.
