Grayson probably doesn't want to quit the job at his boyhood team. I'm not saying he's great, I think he has many flaws tactically etc. but if we are talking strictly about the way this club is being run with transfers, wages etc. then he's not to blame. How anyone can put the blame of us selling Gradel on him is beyond me.
Adam clayton will be going soon watch this space how long is his contract to run please don,t blame Grayson he his just trying his best without any help financially from BATES
I agree, some can assume that Grayson has no fight when it comes to Bates. He cannot force Bates to back him in the transfer market. What's the alternative for him? Resign? What good would that do? All the man can do is get on with it and do the best he can with the squad he's got. Mistakes have been made but look back a few seasons and see how far he's brought us. Be patient fellow whites.
Not blaming him for selling Gradel, that's Bates decision, it's the fact he stands by it and allows himself to be bullied by Bates that I can't stand, it's fecking dire and I detest weak people who allow themselves to be walked over.
no no no no no no...ffs, wake up, this is really happening.[/QUOTE] A player puts a transfer request in, the club accepts it. As a fan of any club no matter how unhappy you are that your better players are leaving, you accept it, and support what is wheeled out in front of you. We make the right noises at the time to show our contempt, but, ultimately we get behind our team. That's what happens, it'll always be that way. Wake me up when the window closes.
no we are weaker at this point in time, no doubt. But if we spend it on a couple of quality players (defenders) it woulda turned out to be good business IMO. How much do we think we got for him though?
Does Bates actually want us to get relegated again so he can pay the players fcuk all again while still charging top whack prices and pocket the money again? Any transfers with fees where we sell have become "undisclosed" because Bates doesn't want us to know how much money he is basically stealing from the club. If you ever had any doubt about the motives of Bates, this is surely it made transparently clear. We nuture and make a player out of one that Leicester failed with, he becomes a hot property and rather than pay him a good wage, Bates sells him. Why would any player, other than the donkey's, cripples and loanees looking for some exercise come to Leeds now?
Just to lighten the mood, watching SSN and seen Lescott and Rooney in HD. Ugly bastards, my eyes are bleeding.
Every club in the country uses "undisclosed" fees. We only know what the fees are because Sky etc. report them.
Gutted, f**king joke...... We have a **** defence and Grayson just agreed to take another potential 20 goals out of the team.... !!! fair enough he might not have agreed, but he will lie for Bates wont he, and go only with the clubs official bulls**t line, he's nothing more than a puppet. I suppose he already has a replacement lined up...?? cause he f**king has.... some old has been or someone who couldn't even make the team last season,.... not sure which is worse. Bates your a disgrace, and selling your best players only makes other quality players not want to come here....... ansd those we have want to leave. I was worried about relegation before, I am even more now.
