Missed the boat there I reckon. I would've loved him back personally. His pace is exactly what we need up front. If Grayson can get the best out of him (again), the poodles could well be serious contenders.
Over rated, over paid, wasteful in front of goal and selfish. We got lucky with this. Thank him for OT and Bristol but thank god he is at udders and not ER. Gradel however.......
Must say I have said it was a nono from day one his wages alone are 40k a week looks like my tip may be right after all JD Cambell
What about which shirt he was wearing, Bruv? One of the most classic Leeds United player comments ever!
Look at the expression on his face holding the Udders shirt! It tells me he is glad to be away from the Foxes on loan, but not at the Club he would have wished for! Pearson would never have let him come to us because he knew he would be strengthening a top team & help us get promoted.
Pity we missed out, but lets move on. New owners could have shown their cash and got him on loan though.
maybe NW did not want him, good though he is, he is high maintenance and you have to play to his style, rather than him fitting into the current plan. Not sure I would have dropped anyone for him, so we would have been taking an expensive squad player. Hey ho anyway, probably too early for the new buyers to splash the cash.
Beckford isn't on 40K. He is on between 25-30K. The reason we didn't sign Yakubu was because we wasn't willing to pay him 40K Loaning players to promotion rivals wouldn't bother Nigel. We loaned Blackpool DJ Campbell the year they went up and they finished 1 place below us We're just glad to see the back of him. His negative attitude on and off the pitch brings the team down. Add to that he is a lazy bastard
