But people haven't been reporting that Lonergan's already moved to Everton. Surely if he knew he already had interest from Everton (which he must have done) he wouldn't have basically signed for us?
DEAL STALLED BY PERSONAL TERMS Preston agreed a fee on Monday with Leeds over the sale of Andy Lonergan but the deal is taking longer than expected to complete. A fee was agreed on Monday with Lonergan in Leeds on Tuesday for the usual medical and agreement of personal terms. It appears there have been some stumbling blocks over his personal terms which is no surprise considering the hefty wage Preston decided to pay him. Phil Brown is hopeful that the deal can be resolved by the end of the week allowing him to bring Iain Turner into the club. If the deal falls through it is thought Everton and Coventry are also interested int he stopper. --------------------------------------------------------------- Looks like he's the keeper we want
But are we the club that HE wants ? Looks like money is again the stumbling block with a Prem club apparently keeping an eye on the situation.
good call. Money is always the issue with us. Once again how can we better the squad if we cant afford to pay for the better players. Somebody is full of **** in this club and i can't work out whether its Grayson/Harvey or that prick Bates.
Ironic how one of Bates most famous quotes is "if you want premiership football, you pay premiership prices", yet he is apparently exempt from the rule?
According to the other site, Lonergan was a done deal on Monday with only medical & personal terms to be finalised. Time will tell. Let's hope if it is him, with Kisnorbo in front he can do a better job than Kasper with a partially fit Naylor in front of him.
To be fair boggers naylor was our best central defender last season and that says hell of alot when you have the tripe in bromby - bruce - collins (Was) And the sometimes lapse of O'brien. I even remember one of our clean sheets against watford was because of a Naylor goal and him at the back. He wasnt class, he wasn't skillful, he was just a plain jane!
The Sun are saying he's signed http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/3679320/Andy-Lonergan-is-Leeds-new-No1.html
Lonegon has turned us down will stay at PNEas he will get a lot more MONEY but the dictator saiDs if you want premiership football you have to pay premiership prices so how come we can,t compete with PNE RE WAGES
I think he's just made it up. Amazing how almost everyone apart from me thought he would be crap until suddenly there are rumours he might not be coming.
Its amazing how quick us Leeds fans are at slating a player off before he has even played for us! So glad Lonners has proved Grayson right me right but most of the Leeds fans wrong. I cant believe how poor Prestons management where with arguably one of the best keepers ive seen in a Leeds shirt for a long long time, Preston fans clearly know **** all about football especially gay boy Alex
I cant believe how much i doubted this signing considering how well he has done... shame he has got injured
