Lets just say LB isn't going anywhere
With due respect you haven't a clue what his agent is doing and who he is and is not touting his client to. The only reason we are aware of Sunderland is because of leaks to journos who print stories to sell papers. Neither Sunderland nor BHA have announced anything officially. As for keeping quiet, these stories sell papers because there are thousands of fans unlike you or me that thrive on transfer gossip.
Very good source certain promises made
Lets just say LB isn't going anywhere
I know his agent is not playing him off against other clubs.
The only reason why we are aware of the leaks is because Gus has leaked them. We have had "Gus after Bridcutt", "Gus wants Buckley and Bridcutt for £3m", "An offer of £2m", "Closing in on a deal for £2.5m", "Hope to sign him before the Man U game", Hope to get him by Wednesday" headlines for the past couple of weeks.
I like the way Cardiff signed Noone which was handled confidentially, respectfully and without fuss.
What posturing? Sunderland have said what about Bridcutt? We have said....nothing either. So much posturing going on there.
I think what you mean is that you hate all the pant wetting a speculation and putting 2+2 together by journalists and supporters in the transfer window.
I never said otherwise, what's that got to do with anything? Sym asked if Bridcutt had asked to leave, and you said he didn't need to, as the agent would deal with it. I'm simply pointing out that you're wrong, clubs do need to speak to their players about their intentions.With due respect, you have no idea what the club have said to Bridcutt.
I didn't say that. I said that an agent could say that. We're discussing what can happen (and therefore the importance of a club telling a player their position), I wasn't saying what has or hasn't been said.Also to say that BHA 'don't mind him going' is a bit disingenuous as you have not been party to conversations.
There was definitely a piece a week or so ago in one of the tabloids in which Gus said he knew how we done business and had no qualms about going after our players so not just Di Fanti leaking it at all
25 pages....hmm..i'm going for a minimum of 50 according to my source
Don't have the paper to hand and on phone. Fairly sure would have been an interview in the Sun but not got access to website to find it
