Switching houses

No: HPFGUIDX 93405

I've been trying to make the connection between the missing Mr. 
Goyle in the MOM battle in OOP, and the student that will be 
switching houses. There's no canon to support that Sr. Goyle wasn't 
there, but when Malfoy starts starts sending the DE's in certain 
pairs and directions to capture Harry and the prophesy- Goyle's name 
isn't mentioned. Don't Crabb and Goyle stick together like glue? It 
would seem they learned this behavior from their fathers. So, is 
there some reason why he wasn't there, if, indeed, he wasn't? 

I've been reading the posts of all the theories regarding the 'good' 
slytherin, and how this person would instigate the unification of 
the school houses. But, rather than any 'good' slytherin, how about 
a fearful one? Which I have seen theorized as well. Perhaps Goyle's 
dad made a break from LV- and now he doesn't want his son to be in 
the same house with the other boys, and requests his change to DD? I 
still can't find the quote from Jo regarding the change, but I know 
I've read it in Quick Quotes- I just can't remember if she said the 
change would be voluntary, or involuntary? Just imagine stupid Goyle 
sitting in the Gryffindor common room, telling Harry and his friends 
everything he knows about Draco, Lucius, LV, etc. !
