This is entirely the media's fault. We need to get some perspective.
Let's say that what should have happened is the club release a press statement stating that Holt has handed in a transfer request, he wants to move closer to his family in the North, and whilst he's enjoyed his time at Norwich, he feels he would rather leave at the top of his game.
The bloke is an honest, working class lad. He's not in the business of stabbing anyone in the back, ESPECIALLY not the club and fans who have made him a Premiership footballer.
We all need to calm down, he'll be (or would be) missed greatly. The media have got hold of this and all of a sudden people are saying he's a judas. For heaven sake.
