    As much information as we're likely to get.

    We did receive a transfer request from Grant Holt yesterday. It was rejected immediately.

    I disagree, he's being firm but leaving the door open to negotiation

    Told us nothing specific but you have to assume its a contract issue due to his emphasis on explain the contract offering procedure of the club.

    as i mentioned in an earlier post, this is not about the money specifically - its about ending his career at norwich and the security it brings. he wants to be given an extension to his deal but the club haven't done anything about it. the important word to add at the end of that sentence is YET. agent has jumped the gun, probably getting frustrated at it taking so long

    He can't exactly explain the reasons why the request was handed in, the only we he can do it is to remind us of the procedures with contract talks. This means it's definitely to do with contract and the that Holt wants a new contract is a good thing?

    Agree about agent, bit rash, but I'm sure if all gets resolved it will be business as normal.

    McNallys just following due process

    NCFC sort out the players that are leaving, then the ones that are going to get new deals, then the negotiation of any existing deals

    Surelt that makes sense, you want to give the guys that are leaving the maximum ammount of time to get new deals elsewhere

    Agents jumped the gun, thats my money.

    We have not had an argument or row with any player, including Grant. The club is very grateful to all of the players for another great year.

    I repeat, no new deal has been discussed with any in contract player, including Grant. The figures in the Sun article are wildly inaccurate.

    If as now seems likely this is because Holt wants to finish his career here or at least have a longer contract how does that make people feel towards Holt. In some ways it seems he loves the club and is desperate to stay, then again he is trying to force the clubs hand one way or another and this is not good. Overall I would say if this is the case it will mostly be forgiven although I would say the handing in of a transfer request was very ill-advised. I imagine it will be a crazy week or two then everything will settle down and he will be here come next season. Be interesting to know how much of this fiasco was instigated by Holt or if it was largely due to his agent.

    Handling the situation like a boss...

    If you believe the Sun, we are 'plunged into chaos'. On the contrary, we are very relaxed with managing the end of season activities.

    i'd suggest he has been very badly advised, if indeed it was even he who handed in the request. it was confirmed yesterday by someone (can't remember who - sorry) that an agent can do this without the player
