Oh Bollocks. If Grayson made Lonergan captain over a long serving, important and well regarded player like Snoddy then he has lost the plot.
We just have to pray for a miracle ,if we can go up then we can offer him a better contract, if not then he'll be off at the end of the season.Unless bates is full of it again and we sell him this window using the contract talk breakdown as an excuse
Three games on the bounce against ten men, it isn't going to happen every week so rule out the 'if' sadly it isn't going to happen
Old peacock Micheal brown 18k pw Andy obrien 15k pw Leigh bromby 14k pw Shaun Harvey is doing a great job
Nah the 2m will be with all the provisional clauses and **** included. Stuff like European qualification, England caps, 40+ appearances, that sort of proviso that won't get us any money will about 2014. 500k and 750k are the initial fees being reported.
I have been trying to tell everyone about the Snoddy situation for months. The club have almost made it clear to him that they don't value him as a person and that once an offer came in that they liked, they wanted him out. I can now say (coz it's in the media) that the club that made the contract offer was Everton and that both parties appeared to agree with the deal, then Gradel went and the Leeds board appeared to back down due to concern about the impact on the club of also losing Snoddy. Snoddy doesn't want to leave Leeds, I'm sure of that, but the club appear not to match his football ambition and did not & will not bring in the players required to make the step up, purely due to finances and the non footballing business plan, so he now has to make a decision on what he does and it appears he has done so. Everton are still interested but lack the finances required, so look for Snoddy to move to a cluI'mim the midlands area. The simple fact is that without Snoddy, Leeds are a woeful team, no matter what results are scrapped by when he's not playing. The Howson deal does appear to be an initial £750,000 with add ons.
Completely unfounded speculation seems to be linking him to us now. Although I gather we're going to be linked with quite a few player now (and not sign anyone notable, due to retaining our frugal ethos!)
