norfolkbroadslim 225 Posted May 20, 2012 Knowing what we all know now, would you have voted differently for the Player of The Season? - Obviously this probably only applies to those who voted for Grant. Put it another way. If Holt had put in his transfer request in January but stayed at the club until the end of the season, but still performed exactly the same and scored the same number of goals as he did, would he still have won POTS? Do you feel angry or cheated that you voted for Holt and days after winning the POTS he handed in his transfer request and if you could would you retract your vote and vote for someone else? Do you think that Holt still deserved to win POTS for what he achieved during last season and what has happened since largely irrelevant. Yes, yes shoot me, another Holt related post, but with a different spin to it. Sorry all the same.[:)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Europe_93 50 Posted May 20, 2012 You judge player of the season on the basis of on field performances, I would not change my vote. If it was commitment to Norwich City then Adam Drury would have won it?A fair question though, because you could argue Kyle Naughton may have faired better in the votes had he not been on loan.Don''t feel angry or cheated, surprised is more the adjective I would use.

Graham Humphrey 13 Posted May 20, 2012 Shouldn''t make any difference to be honest. He well deserved to win the award based on his efforts on the pitch this season. What happens off it doesn''t matter as long as they do the job on it.Actually, come to think of it, I think if he handed his request in January but it was refused and then went on to perform in an identical fashion, he would have probably won even more praise for his attitude towards having a move refused. Although as I say I''m not so sure it should come into it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CambridgeCanary 0 Posted May 20, 2012 Absolutley not. I voted for him because of all he had achieved for the Club and himself last season and that hasn''t changed. In any event, since we do not know the facts yet, it is impossible to say whether my views would change if I knew what was going on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tetteys Jig 851 Posted May 21, 2012 Not at all. In a more extreme example, despite ched evans being a convicted rapist, he was one of the best 2 strikers in league 1 last season, and didn''t cheat at football, therefore the calls to not award him defied logic. Yeah fair enough, don''t turn up at his cell and have a party, but don''t take what he rightfully won (some would argue that as the event happened last summer, he shouldn''t have been playing last season, but blah!).Oh and I do know that holt has only handed in atransfer request, not raped anyone, but the same logic applies in this case.Also, what happens if a criminal wins the lottery?

BigManInTheBarclay 84 Posted May 21, 2012 no....Holt deserved the POTS award. Good luck to him if he wants to leave, we have to look forward not back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Redders Right Foot 22 Posted May 21, 2012 I actually voted for Ruddy. BUT. If holt had put in a transfer request, and still played the way he did, I think I might of changed it to him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZLF 334 Posted May 21, 2012 No - my vote was still for Naughton followed by Ruddy - both far more consistent for city than GH, who did have a great season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
