Batth to Norwich ** confirmed **


Can't be many players of the year who dont get a chance at the start of the following season and forced out the club. Especially from players who played at the club the season before.
He's not treated unfairly, he was just told that no further contracts beyond this season. He's not starting because on current form Ballard + 09 suits us better.
 
He did say in a press conference earlier in the season that none of the three players would be starting games. This was not long after the club announced none of them would be getting a new contract and Mowbray said he would review this if any were still at the club when the window closed.
Mowbray is a puppet. It’s disgraceful the way he presided over the treatment of Batth, Pritchard and Gooch. Weak.

Charlie Wyke was POTY, scored 31 goals, and was replaced by Stewart.

Danny Collins was POTY in 2009 and flogged to Stoke 2 months later.
 
Maybe Batth wants to leave rather than him being forced out?

Perhaps he wants to leave as he is not being guaranteed first team football and the club have been honest enough with him, and at his age he wants to play and wants a longer term contract which the club don’t are unwilling to offer.

Club are therefore may be being fare with him and listening to any offers.
Don't talk sense on here man.

Whatever the reasons, we’ve lost three of our best players from last season in Batth, Stewart and Amad.

Batth was experienced, robust and consistent. Our best central defender last season. Have we improved upon him this window with a ready made replacement? Hmm, we’ll see
