    They don’t want him to play in front of another younger forward because he does not have any resell value. All about making money they don’t give a crap about us they just want to make as much money as possible!

    The same youngsters who would quadruple in value given just half a season with Nors.

    If - and its a big if - this is the reason, then they've learned absolutely nothing from Conway/Lee's approach.

    None of this makes any sense. They gave him a new contract just weeks ago. Summat must have gone on.

    Yeah he said defence was **** in Yorkshire Post then he's gone a week later. Didn't take Sherlock Holmes to work it out.

    A reason that many will happily accept as it plays into a familiar narrative about the board, but on this occasion it doesn’t stack up.

    Just a wild guess. Seems unlikely to be only that.

    They didn't give him a new contract. They activated the option for an extra year, like they did with Williams, Andersen and Collins.

    Unless we only extended so we could demand a fee.

    Has anyone thought that he’s forced a move out? Let’s not stick boot in just yet till we know facts and not make wild assumptions like always

    This whole thing only makes sense if they plan to bring in an equally good striker.

    Fast-forward a year from now, Norwoods 33, out of contract and if we are promoted will be deemed not worth keeping.

    If they’ve got someone lined up who can score 15+ in L1, who’s younger, on a longer contract and who can get better with age then I can forgive this, anything else it’s a disaster
