I think there will be more reservation from us if he does sign due to the fact we thought Beckford would be our 20 a season striker. As long as he puts the effort in, i dont mind, mainly because it could create goals for other players. weve seen Nugent turn situations where their defenders are comfortable with the ball and he manages to get a Leicester corner out of it.
Hmmm. Spanner in the works thrown in by Donny: http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11095/7420724/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter Not sure they'd be able to outdo us in terms of wages or chances of Premier League football. Just wonder if he wants to stay as close as he can to his family though and wants to repay Donny by keeping them up?
Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear, I really didn't think that things could get any funnier. Are you ever going to sign anyone?
What chance do they really have? They've accepted a bid from us (which shows they are not mega keen on keeping him) and they are currently looking dead cert for relegation.
I think we activated a release clause so I don't think they had a choice as to whether to accept it. Apparently our talks went well today. The ball is well and truly in Billy's court. Now_Football Transfer News Those reports about Billy Sharp being offered a new deal at #DRFC, will not stop his move to #LCFC, unless any other last minute hitches.

I thought Billy Sharp would be leaving but not to Leicester. If the Donny directors want to keep him they can out bid anything yours can. There are local rumours saying £40k although I think that is a bit high as you are only offering about £28k, probably £30k to £35k is more like what they'll offer.
They do have some cash apparently, dunno how much though, just cause they are near the bottom doesnt mean they're poor, unless your Cov
Donnys directors are some of the richest in the country. 3 of them are in the football top 100 rich list and the rest of them aren't exactly paupers.
they obviously have money as look at chimbonda, beye, diouf etc.... but £40k a week!? Thats probably one of evertons top wages!!!
