Its an answer I dont want to be honest TC Warnock said if he had 1 mill to spend he would be looking at bringing in 4-5 players not one! Thing is with the players listed above there currently on a low wage, hence why they want improved deals which means we will have to replace cheap & pay cheap going forward and as you said, how much of the fee will go on replacements? rumour is Clayts is on about 3k. Who we going to sign for practically no fee (we cant afford 450k afterall) and will contribute to a promotion push on a low wage? Worrying.
I don't do cheap shots, its comments like: "Bates has made Warnock look like a bare faced liar" "Bates wants to take Leeds into admin so he can strip the club of assets" These kind of unqualified statements make no sense except to show blind hatred, and any reasonable discussion goes down the toilet.
At this rate he might as well keep Snoddy/McCormack/Clayton, go all out for promotion this season and then if we fail, leave us in the **** for next year. Although that said, even with those 3 our squad still looks like mid table at best. Need a lot more quality and depth yet.
It does annoy me that people are still willing to believe Bates' propaganda when it comes to players signing contracts over common sense, what the players say and people in the know. Snodgrass for one has made it quite clear all he wants to see is some ambition and he's not seeing any. McCormack was deliberately offered a low wage in order for him to be sold on, Clayton wasn't even offered a contract and White wants to stay too. Instead we're going to gamble on being able to replace these players with better on less money.
This is LEEDS UNITED for ****s sake, not some tin pot club straying into the Championship from Div 1 by chance and hoping for better things. We 'could' fill a stadium, we have support from each corner of the country, with the revenue the club generates at the gate and merchandise alone we should be aiming at players in the £1 million bracket, not ****ing £450k. The money should be there, we are accepting that money is tight because Bates tells us it is, as someone pointed out in another thread, Warnock has been around a long time, he has had budgets based on club size, he KNOWS he is being cut short with funds at this club.
Hi there it is I Neil warnock as you maybe blissfully unaware I do read the Leeds united forum after what is a un answerable question from you I've decided to answer the question for you. We've been busy over last 2 weeks looking for a number of certain players however I can't really answer many rumours untill there dealt with. As for quitting that isn't going to happen I've been promised a budget and thats what I'll get if I want more then players have to be sold. Shaun harvey is in charge of transfer dealings while I'm on my holiday and any unfinished dealings could yet come through. When I return from my hols hopefully things will come together rather sharp ish. Hope all Leeds fans have a good summer and get ready for a promotion pushing season next year. NW Found this it made me piss myself laughing.........................
