What a f***ing surprise an undisclosed fee. So Bates doesn't have to justify how much we'll be spending on strengthening the team. Because we all know how much we'll be spending, the usual big fat zero. Its OK though, the Fabien Delph shopping mall will be open soon. F*ck off Bates.
I bet Snodgrass, Nunez, Howson and Clayton will be relishing the contracts that the club will offer them within the next 6 months (ha!). What a lack of ambition this club shows.
Looks like we rejected Sochaux's bid and it was bluster from their chairman about 'advanced stages of the negotiation'. Definitely St Etienne who've stolen in with this one. And don't go telling me you need a strong squad to get promoted from this division. Nonsense! We'll get promoted by playing the Centenary Pavillion in goal, Billy's Bar in defence, Howard's Restaurant in midfield and the new star-signing, the East Stand Village up front! Promotion sorted; Who needs Gradel anyway? No doubt his greedy agent was trying to get us to pay more than we were doing for him already! Can you believe the cheek of some people?!
Well I hate to say I told you so, you only had to listen to Grayson giving interviews he was singing the praise of Nunez far too much. Singing the praise as he wanted Leeds fans to agree Nunez in place of Gradel when we wanted to see both alongside each other. Ahh **** I can't be bothered to write any more, just need Josh and Simon21 to say how it is okay and we are going to be stronger and **** and I think I will top myself.
Apparently Max submitted the transfer request. Any idea what we got for him? Disappointing, but at least Nunez or Sam are both natural replacements. Will be hard to spend the money in less than 24 hrs.
Will be hard to spend the money anyway Boggers, its probably being hotwired to the West Indies as we speak.........
Tell me you don't believe that? We tried the same with Kasper and Beckford, Gradel wasn't even spoke to about a new contract.
we will never know ****ers....... well be good to see Forsell rolled out tomorrow like we need another ****ing striker ... should have signed Mendy when we had the chnace ...
Ristic, if our website said that he submitted a transfer request, then that's what happened. The website can't lie because if they did, the club could be sued. Disappointing that he's gone, but Nunez or Sam will prove more than adequate replacements.
He handed a transfer request in because the club have treated him with **** all respect. He says he wants a new contract and never gets offered one, whilst the club sprout off in the press about wanting to keep him. The same happened with Johnson, he wanted to stay but was offered a **** contract. Beckford was offered a **** contract. Can we expect the same thing to Snodgrass, Howson, Clayton?
I'm unhappy, but not surprised. It just seemed inevitable really. We should have known that when a players contract comes up for extension it's only a matter of time before that player leaves us for pastures new. Bates's policies are plain baffling. In Simon we trust, MOT.
Grayson's not the problem. You think he called up Bates today and said he wanted Gradel to be sold? I sure he was delighted to see Kilkenny, Johnson and Beckford leave. Yeah he bull ****s us a lot, but if he didn't he'd be out of a job. I'm sure this is pissing him off as much as us.
