Beckford off the transfer list

[El Presidente]

Either no one has come in for him, or Leeds have quoted silly money and have been laughed at by potential suitors. He has not signed a new contract though, so will be running down his contract potentially.

It will be interesting how their fans take to him, I suspect if he scores a few early goals it will be kiss and make up time.

It will improve their chances with him in the team though.

 

[RM-Taylor]

He'll still be sold this summer. Ken Bates will snap an offer up to pay for his legal bills and for his personal leisure. Delph being sold for allegedly £7 million is fantastic business though/

Got his improved contract. Can't see fans of any team getting on the back of a goal machine

He hasn't signed a contract. Bates said if an appropriate offer doesn't come in then he will stay and leave for free at the end of the season.

You're obviously forgetting certain MORONS getting on Murray's back when he's been banging them in.

Beckford staying means that one less Northern team that requires a striker. Murrays options up North must be running thin. Cant see that many taems able to stump rthe cash, or if they could need him.

I would love Murray to stay.

 

[Easy 10]

Murray wıll go to Blackpool. Hıs mıssuss LOVES the Pepsı-Max.

Murray wıll go to Blackpool..

I suggested that as the best place for him ages ago and still think that Holloway will come in at the last minute with an offer of so much down and so much dependant on goals appearances etc as he has been injured.

I hope that I am wrong and that he stays with us to boost his value up to Christmas and provide us with 10 - 15 goals.

 

[DTES]

I only know one Leeds fan, so it's obviously not a particularly reliable sample, but as far as I know 100% of them have already forgiven him and are looking forward to him "firing them back to the Championship"...

 

[The Wizard]

He's a f***ing class player he tore us apart at Elland road last season, a good example of the talent you can pick up from non-league.

 

[Starry]

there isn't really anything for forgive though. he does not want to leave leeds and he didn't ask to be transfer listed. he asked for a new contract, saw that and came back asking for more money. he was told this is the best you get and he declined to sign so larry and bates transfer listed him.

beckford was very well received by us on tour last week. i wouldn't rule out a.n.other putting the money in for a compromise contract though.

£7m for delph is a cracking bit of business, he won't go though unless things change and for him that is a good who has heard of our other starlets that were wowed by big bucks and have since warmed the reserves bench at chelsea. fab is using that as a why i should stay and move on when i'm better or whatever and more likely to get first team football. which is a shame because £7m is a tidy sum.

You've definitely got a much better memory than me, Mr M. I find it hard to remember the last time I actually saw him START a competative game for us tbh.

Cough cough

BBC SPORT | Football | My Club | L | Leeds | Baggies put in offer for Beckford

 

[Here's Johnny!]

Strange one this.........

Birmingham Mail - Sport - West Bromwich Albion - West Bromwich Albion News - Albion deny making offer for Jermaine Beckford

 

[El Presidente]

If they lost Beckford, having lost Delph already, you'd have to seriously think that they're not going to be the force everyone expects. With those two in the team I would have said they would definitely be in the top two, but now they're looking at having neither I'd say they're play-off material at best.

Depends if Grayson is given any money to reinvest by Cuddly Ken.

There's no quotes in that article. Being offered £2.5 million for a player out of contract at the end of the season, I don't think Bates has any other choice but to accept it and give him the chance to speak to WBA.

Leeds won't be in the play-offs now I don't think.

 

[Here's Johnny!]

Have to agree with Badger as that kind of talent isnt floating around in the lower leagues to replace them with, even if they do spend the cash they've now got.

If they lose Snodgrass aswell then they should start telling their fans they're happy in league 1 and dont really fancy promotion anytime soon!
