    I don't know about anyone else but i'm really looking forward to JAQ's next cryptic pseudo-intellectual philosophical dogshit tweet.

    Think we have to see how this plays out as many have said this makes no sense. That makes me think there must be more to it surly it means someone else is coming in, judge us by our actions is their mantra and we will.

    To be fair to Norwood he must have worked out that he only has 3/4 years left in his career so his best chance of getting to the Championship would be Oldham rather than Barnsley.

    It's the stupidest **** i've ever heard. It's stupider than having to have a substantial meal to drink a pint in a pub. It's stupider than the Scotch egg ruling.

    I think it’s just a case of people jumping to conclusions based on their existing beliefs. Of course it could be down to the failings of Khaled but it also might be something else. We’ll see.

    Khaled is gonna have to clarify what’s gone on though. Two days before the season starts, this is a big loss. On the surface it just makes no sense whatsoever. If there’s no explanation forthcoming, he should expect people to blame the Club.

    I agree. I think they probably will, whether or not people will like it is another matter!

    You try to claim how important Norwood is by having constant digs at his strike parter who was top scorer last season.

    I'm not saying it's solely his decision. It's an awful decision by the club to let him go anywhere. I'm just saying it's a strange one on his part as well.

    I don’t think Norwood is an amazing player just think it’s very odd (unless you have a replacement lined up) to sell one of your 3 forwards that gave any level of experience.

    Cole has had 1 good season in 10 years as a player. Personally I can’t see him repeating that. If he does I’d be delighted but he’s incredibly limited so if he surprised.

    Your comment that Shaw and Jalo form any like for like replacement is laughable.

    Well he scored 16 last season 11 in 28 spl games and 10 goal in 28 league 1 games at Fleetwood so that's 3 seasons where he's done okay in league 1 and the spl.

    No one was on about Cole they were on about Norwood leaving but you specifically mentioned Cole before any other striker at the club.

    I don't think coles great but there's alot worse at the club dallas is unproven, I wasn't impressed by watters last season. I wasn't the biggest Norwood fan and I don't think him or Cole scored enough last season. The fact he got dropped by a very good manager in duff for tedic tells a story.

    I said Shaw and jalo will be both wanting to play a part from the bench not that they were replacements.

    I dont do Instagram either Helen but logged in to read his statement. in response to the other two posts on his statement:

    1. He doesn't make it clear who made the decision. Ut certainly leaves it open that it could have been his decision.

    2. He is gutted to be leaving but clearly that doesn't mean that he wanted to stay...particularly if he had a longer term contract offer.
