Ok yeah maybe commitment was the wrong word to choose but there was a lot last year on here saying he shouldn't play he's not good enough and all that crap maybe doesn't break the line as much as he used to but his defence is always top notch you very rarely see him miss a tackle had a good start to this season let's hope he continues the form he's shown so far

Ah, now I see where you got it.
I think you've misunderstood the rules.

There is a cut off date for those players not under contract where you need to tell them they are not being offered a contract or that they are still in negotiation but can talk to other clubs.
If we offered Batch a contract he must have been in the second group. If he wanted to test his value in the market he was allowed to do it but it doesn't mean we didn't want him.

That first line is absolutely untrue!

Lol Jose
You've got your work cut out if you are going to debunk all the weird posts on here tonight.

I still chuckle to myself that someone with no knowledge says something and 2000 people believe it!

Well thats a relief, i had a vision of the poor lad chained up to the goal posts, with the CEO taking him for a walk round the pitch twice a day.
