You have any stats on this Ben White fella people are raving about?
Funny story:
"On 13 August 2014, Defour signed a five-year deal with R.S.C. Anderlecht, for €6 million. On 25 January of the following year, when playing at Standard Liège, he was sent off for deliberately kicking the ball at home fans who had unfurled a banner depicting his severed head under the slogan "Red or Dead".

On the replies to the tweet of him in the crowd, Dale's own brother makes some sarcastic remarks along the lines of how 'it can't be him(Dale) isn't he meant to be up north with Burnley' etc and says 'what would he know, talking to him everyday, the transfer rumours must be right...'
I may have read it in the wrong way but it sounded as though he was taking the piss out of all of the rumour sites saying he was leaving imminently.
He may still be leaving but I don't think it's as likely as people are assuming.

Well, it's funny you should ask that. Here's the thing......
Last August I made an offer to [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] of writing up profiles of our 20 or so scholars. I spent a fair amount of time and effort doing so and they are available under the "Read the Albion" tab above. Except they aren't, because [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] never published them (for reasons which remain unknown to me).
So, if you want to know a little more about him, I suggest you have a word with the boss....

Nothing wrong with one hundred pages of rampant speculation. Gives me something to read on the train. As you were please.
Would love to see the write ups on the scholars though!

The last few days have really made me think he might actually stay...
Reasons as follows:
Seems our local media and the man in the know confirm no agreement near.
If he was about to leave would he really of been as visible as he was last night at the game? I can't for one minuite believe the club would want him there if a deal was close.
His brother seems to be enjoying the banter on Twitter. I'm pretty confident he wouldn't be engaging if he knew his brother was off.
Finally I simply can't understand the logic of Burnley not acting by now if they seriously wanted him, it just doesn't make sense not to not have him in the squad before the season starts this weekend.

It's the 3/4 year deal worth 30k+ a week that does it.
Good for you.
I don't always have the time to trawl through an eighty page thread to find out a fact.

I'm not convinced he's leaving either. As others have said, with Burnley you get one season and you're back in this division. Maybe, just maybe Dale thinks he can help this team go up and would be able to secure himself a better deal with a team (us)more likely to make a fist of staying in the Premier League?

I agree, from pictures i have seen he was walking around outside with fans getting pictures etc!

I am really wishing that is the case, it shows we have a good team spirit and belief we can go all the way this time. However money talks and we may, just may be thinking north of seven million pounds, yes £7 000 000 is too good an offer to refuse. I hardly think we are in a position to say we may be a better bet in the Premier league than Burnley.........who can tell? And they are there, we may take years to achieve the same goal.
I would be delighted if he stays with us but not too disappointed if we get more than 7 million.
