How many players has the likes of Mouriniho, Fergie and Clough have fallen out with (happy OLM ) - prefer a manager that says his way or the high way (MON) rather then a passive one (Sven).
Apparently we would have paid all his wages if he went to you - he must prefer reserve football for us rather then first team for you...
He still might be coming, he played a reserve game yesterday, so we will have to see what unfolds today, oh and are you below us in the league !!!
Our local paper reckons Nigel will decide tommorow about Matt Mills' future, so i reckon he has probably apologised and Nigel is considering weather to accept it or get rid. But if we have already agreed a deal with you either the rumours are right that Matt Mills has turned Leeds down or Nigel has put the brakes on for now
Leicester City defender Matthew Mills is reportedly mulling over a potential move to Leeds United on loan. Mills was signed by the then Leicester manager Sven Goran-Erikkson from Reading in a £5.5million deal. This made him the most expensive player purchase in Leicester’s entire history, but his move to the Walkers Stadium however has been a bit of a disaster – he has lost his captaincy of the side and has fallen way down in the pecking order following a number of poor performances.
I take it thats from the Daily Liar. Spelt Sven's name wrong, put the wrong price on Matt Mills and put we played at the Walkers Stadium
Why would Nigel beg when we have Sean St. Ledger, Sol Bamba, Wes Morgan, Aleksandar Tunchev and we can always go into the loan market
According to both the BBC and your local press, it was a £4.5m initial fee, rising to £5.5m. Shameful. Sources: http://www.thisisleicestershire.co....y-s-Akinbiyi/story-12908146-detail/story.html http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/14064234
3.5M with an extra 500K in add ons The media inflated transfer fee in which we payed. The media said Beckford cost 4M when he cost 2M We still spent alot but no where near what the media say
well you would say that, I'm leaning towards Iqbal's figure, he's normally spot on, almost oracle like.
Because Iqbal has inside knowledge within our club doesnt he. Andrew Neville who deals with transfer admitted the deal was nothing like what the media said. Here is a quote from Sir John Madejski when asked about the fees they received for Matt Mills and Shane Long
You know Iqbal well. I can always rely on his insider knowledge. Surprise, surprise a chairman talking down the funds coming into a club! Can't think why he would do that! I'll wait for Iqbal to confirm before I believe your transfer dealer and a selling chairman.
Exactly. It suits Madejski to talk down how much they received because he's selling players left, right and centre by all accounts and making a killing. Suits the Rakajrkaknras and their minions to downplay it because it makes them look shrewd and sensible. Why the local press would misreport a transfer fee is beyond me.
