    Problem is, Morrison will be on a big wage. The best we can hope for is loaning him out again if he doesnt want to come back and hope someone pays a high percent of his wage. Cheers Warnock you cock!

    Poleon I would send out on loan for a season even if its L1 and see how he fairs before making a decision on him. Although he hasnt had many chances and has coverted a few, he still looks very very raw. Wouldnt be surprised if he doesnt make it.

    If your good enough your old enough I fear Poleon will never be good enough for this standard perhaps Crewe would be a good choice as they will bring the best out of him

    He does need a good run though. So a season long loan with no disruptions then make a call on if he will make the grade would be my recommendation.

    Former Leeds director being questioned by police

    Last updated Thu 8 May 2014
    It is believed that former Leeds United MD David Haigh is currently being questioned by police over an allegation of theft at Elland Road.

    It centres on the apparent discovery of spy cameras in toilets and the boardroom at Leeds United leading to an allegation of club funds being misappropriated for the purchase of technical equipment.

    The 36-year-old voluntarily went to a police station in West Yorkshire this morning and has since been interviewed under caution.

    David Haigh has told the OB that class A drugs were being used and sold in the boardroom which is why he installed the cameras <yikes>

    Is Celino going to get an early morning knock on the door?

    "It was, and remains, David's view that not to have taken action to seek to provide evidence against the alleged perpetrators would have been in breach of his duty as a fit and proper person to be handling the day to day running of a Football League club."

    <laugh> straight out of the book of Bates!!

    Former Leeds United managing director David Haigh today gave a &#8220;full statement&#8221; to police relating to the installation of surveillance equipment at Elland Road, claiming it was put there in response to reports of Class A drug use in the boardroom.

    Haigh left Leeds on April 11 after the club was taken over by Italian Massimo Cellino.

    Earlier the same day it was confirmed by police that they were investigating the surveillance equipment which was discovered by Cellino.
    The presence of the cameras themselves in the boardroom and toilets was not enough to prompt a criminal probe, but allegations they were purchased as a result of a misappropriation of club funds were.

    Haigh was today interviewed by West Yorkshire police and a spokesman for the 36-year-old later released a statement explaining his position, claiming the cameras were as a result of illegal activity.

    It read: &#8220;David has today given a full statement to police officers investigating complaints made to West Yorkshire Police by the new majority shareholders of Leeds United FC that surveillance devices were found at various locations, including the boardroom, at Elland Road.
    &#8220;As the former managing director of the club, David was fully aware of the installation of these devices which were quite properly paid for by the club.

    Straight is the one thing Haigh isn't. In any sense of the word.
