    So - Kent or Nketiah or both, brilliant work - but only if Phillips stays?

    Nketiah is Bristol City's No 1 target

    Popey was just saying Phillips does not want to go anywhere, and he is not greedy?

    Works for me. <cheers><cheers>

    In fairness, never struck me as mercenary, a fair crack of the whip and I think he'd be happy at Leeds for the long term.

    Kalvin’s a lovely lad from what i hear and a Leeds fan... but i’d take all that with a pinch of salt if the premier league comes knocking!

    Are you sure that coach salaries are exempt from FFP? I'd be surprised.


    ..... unless that's the cost of feeding him? :D

    Yep, just been reading up on it, coach fees are not included, it states only 50% of his salary will fall within ffp calculations.

    Hoping we get a deal over the line early tomorrow, I still have the Daniel James fiasco fresh in my mind

    Beunas nochas from a roasting Mexico. Niketiah would be amazing if true. My son’s a gooner and has been raving about this lad. Forget his age. He’d tear this division apart.

    London club but got very interested in our promotion push last year. He’s slowly beginning to see the light.

    I believe that I read he will be paid £85k per week - allocated £70k for coaching and £15k for playing.

    Will FL accept that allocation?

    Think they will quickly find he hasn’t got the legs for the championship, that’s why he retired to the MLS in the first place.

    If that is true it should be investigated, Derby should prove that is the going rate for a coach who’s never coached before.

    Why don’t we register pablo as a player coach and have his wages mostly removed for ffp. Far more believable he could coach than Rooney=

    Seriously though, does he even hold any of the required coaching badges. Derby are cheating plain and simple, which really ****s me off after the fuss they made when we didn’t actually break any rules but still got fined 200k.
