Leon Wants To Avoid The "Shoebox"

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

...
To say Knight is persona non grata at his old club Brighton is to put it mildly. He left midway through the season for the Swans in a £125,000 deal, after a bust-up with Albion boss Mark McGhee.

...

... In all honesty I think they will stone me if I went back to Brighton but if the fans had seen what I'd seen they would know why I left.

Leon obviously has a deep and abiding hatred for McGhee. There's bad blood there, and maybe the whole story could be wheedled out of somebody who knows. He also disses the stadium, which is fair comment, we do the same thing week in week out. At no point does he have a pop at the fans.

Leon Knight, he's alright

Leon just needs a good kick in the minge from butters next season id love to see him pain or a nicley miss timed challenge by oatway

 

[looney]

Swansea have already knocked Brentford out, fool

I meant Uddersfeild, honest.

 

[jonny.rainbow]

Yeh, you looked pretty NUMB that day Leon.

 

[Statto]

Will this bloke ever shut up? its really starting to annoy me now.

 

[British Bulldog]

The only shoe box the little twat want's to worry about is the one they'll be carrying him home in after his next trip to the Withdean.

He has a point.

Yes he is a prick isn't he ?

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Give it a rest Leon, you little tit.

 

[Schrödinger's Toad]

Good old Leon, tells it like it is!

 

[Silent Bob]

Do any of us want to go back to Withdean? Hell no, why should players be any different?

Not especially!!

He is also saying that the moment in Cardiff meant nothing to him and how his top moments are with Swansea. Just another subtle dig running us down. If he didn't want to play at Withdean, why did he join us in the first place?

Cos he had already been rejected at Wednesday and QPR.

Yeah, that's an accurate description of events.

 

[Schrödinger's Toad]

He turned down QPR to come to us I believe. Players always suck up to their new clubs in interviews - just about everyone we've signed has done it, this is hardly anything new.

 

[The Laughing Bluebird]

I thought his most subtle dig was:

"In the Championship you cannot count on one man to carry the side."

I wonder which side he was talking about?

 

[Frutos]

Judging by his size, I figure that the Poison Dwarf probably lives in a shoebox or similarly sized object, so he should know what one looks like for comparative purposes.

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

don't why he's afraid of being stoned by us if a grain of sand hit him he would roll about as if shot. Stupid little fucker needs to grow up.

 

[Tooting Gull]

It goes without saying I hope the little shite continues to f*** up his career.

The reassuring thing is that there is a cycle to Knight's rollercoaster existence. It goes roughly: he arrives; he says all the right things; starts well with a few goals; loves being 'the man'; then suffers a lull in form; then screams like a child when this pointed out to him by the manager; then ends up falling out with everyone.

I see no reason for this changing, he's on about stage 3 of the above with Swansea at the moment.

 

[berkshire seagull]

Leon has a point,the ground is pathetic and mc ghee is the problem.Yeah he has gone over the top,but we are not excactly a club going places are we.
