Where? When? Unless someone had hacked his account?

The twitter account that everyone thought was him, posted a few tweets (not long after a number of Albion fans started following and tweeting him) finally admitting that they were not Kaz LL. I can't access twitter at work, otherwide I'd post the tweets here.

"lets just move on" by that you mean open up a new thread! good plan. Only thing I agree with that you posted was about trusting our manager :bhasign:

all i'm saying is our season next year will not fail just because we don't get kLL........... calm down

I think if it was anyone else Gus would have just moved on,but as per last season,i don't think Gus will just walk away from this.

Totally agree its time to move on,we have replaced two players so actually haven't really signed any extra players and we was the first team promoted.

Time to crack on and get 6-7 players in:)

As much as we all love him i'm confident Gus has an equally as exciting B plan lined up.
 


It may be old news or been posted elsewhere, however, having spoken to Mr Bloom this morning, he told me that the Lua Lua deal for now is over.

The player failed his medical. Whilst fit, his break hasn't re-set 100% & therefore we could not get insurance on him. A too big of a risk to play him, given that the Albion & Newcastle had settled on a £1.5 million fee.

The player is gutted.

Still, not all is lost - we have the option of getting him on loan.

Didn't Gus at some point after LuaLua went back say he didn't think they were treating the injury in the right way??

That does add up with what most people have said - although I heard 1.1 million so that bit is still a mystery... I wish we could just buy him but it's easy to say that when it's not your £1mil + at stake.

Quite - The club won't play him until he is covered by the insurance policy, which is very tight. A real shame for everyone.

So are we expecting his break to heal properly eventually? We should def go for a loan to buy - and buy in Jan if everything has healed properly IMO...

Desperate news, we must get him on board one way or another, I've seen 900 games & he would be in my all time 11...unplayable & would get better
It can't be that bad or he wouldn't have played since, how about buying him with a money back guarantee within the 1st year if it goes again or buy him for 500k with no insurance & hope!
