We didn't have to sell Becchio and were in a strong negotiating position for a striker that had scored nearly 20 goals by February, so I'd imagine it was Morison plus anywhere between 500k and £1m?
It would appear we are also being linked with Dyer from Leicester There is a thread on the Leicester board. I can't see it myself for a number of reasons to be honest
Would take either All the foxes were banging on about Dyer being better than Gradel when Max came to us! Not that I believed them
But Dyer would be more expensive as he is a first choice at a auto promotion chasing team. I think he isn't as good as Burke and Burke is younger
Dyer's handy, but his end product looks a little wayward and Burke's got a few years on him, and we'd probably get him for cheaper
And in the greatest news we have heard for years RAchubka has gone..... Admittedly only on loan and only til April but its still great news
Dont laugh yet, its probably a swap deal with James Beatie coming our way. I can just here it now from Warnock please log in to view this image 'he's the international we have had an eye on for a while now. James is a pro & knows what I want from him & he wont have a problem replacing Becchios goals I can tell you that'
Townsend, if he concentrates on footy & keeping his gob shut, is the type of player we want. He plays wide & has pace. He's also good on the ball. Trouble is, he was less than complementary about his time at Leeds on loan. I forget though. Was his problem with Leeds the footy team, Leeds the area, or being selected to play in his favourite position? If we did get him, either on loan or on a perma deal, he may have to eat a very large slice of humble pie.
Doesn't Beattie also cover Warnock's to main criteria as well. Ancient and has previously played under Warnock
Yep, its all fitting in now. Can see him starting as left back against Cardiff Whilst Aidy White gets sent down the shop for a copy of the daily mirror & some bon bons for Warnock.
Right, I havent been taking my roaming reporter role seriously. Off down the pub to see if I can find anything out. Will also check Garage forecourts & Nandos for any inside info from the players themselves. Oh, and keep an eye out for Redknapp hanging out of his car window somewhere!
