    Fans comment saying he is worth 10-20 mill! <yikes>
    How much did we get for Gradel again? <whistle>

    ACFE, we got a decent amount for gradel if it was maybe a year or 2 ago but the amount of inflation that has happened in the game over the past couple seasons has been ridiculous. Hell, we shoulda been looking at getting at least 20m for gradel, if he wasn't on the last yaer of his contract we coulda got 40m

    And Logi, it must be. Theres no other explanation

    We sold Gradel for Peanuts in honesty, worth at least twice what we reportedly got.
    Fear not, Paynter is back <diva>

    Is there any truth in the rumour Bates has slapped a £12million price tag on Paynters head?

    DO YOU REALIZE THAT PAYNTER IF he reads what the fans are saying about him will have an inferiority complex so big he will be unable to perform and that he must now seek employment elsewhere for his own sake .I wish the lad well and I hope he goes to Sheffield United where Danny will bring the best out of him

    I'd love him to do well leeds60 <ok> But he clearly isnt good enough to warrant a place in our squad & I wish him all the best what ever team hes playing for. I kind of feel sorry for him but if we are serious about promotion or even staying in this league we need to be looking at a better calabre of player than Billy <ok>

    Perhaps we are sometimes too critical of our players we expect too much.How many have gone on to do good things at less shall we say demanding clubs

    Totally agree with the pressure that goes with the white shirt & to perform at Elland Road must be very high. Thats why we need players with the heart as well as the abilty. Combine those two traits & generally you will thrive off the fans rather than be intimidated & uncomfortable. Everytime Billy pulls on a shirt he must know he is playing for his future. He done well to land a contract with us but he is League one/two standard IMO <ok>

    It's not possible to be overly critical of Billy Paynter, that fact is, he's completely ****ing useless.
