Ah, if in doubt fall back on the same old excuses.
The money we are paying him? It may he high by our standards, but who do you think we're gonna get that's better than Knight for the same money?
He scores more than anyone else, and sets up more than anyone else.

It is not my job to ID alternatives... all I can say is, it is not impossible... Jerome, Nugent... etc...
He does not setup more than anyone else... see above...
The money thing is not an excuse, it is true that he is paid a lot, and is delivering not enough on the pitch...

Cardiff pay MUCH more than us, take ALan Lee who we attempted to sign... couldn't afford him as his wages were way out of our league, a backup player at Cardiff. I imagine Preston do to.B.W. said:
Well that Football League site is CLEARLY wrong, it's got him down for 1 when he got two in one match and that's just off the top of my head. Not to mention the chances he's created like the Wolves and Ipswich ones mentioned earlier. Why don't you watch all our highlights from this season and count how many assists he ACTUALLY has? And how many other goals where he was involved in the move. Do it for last season as well. I wonder if then you'd say he's not doing it on the pitch?
Although you probably would, the truth doesn't seem much of an issue here.

Tell you what, if you have the time, you count the assists... as I said earlier, Leon has crossed the line too many times for me... I already said he is a good player... bottom-line is not what you or I think... it's what MM thinks that counts... I suspect he's had enough of Leon's tantrums too, and Leon will be packing his bags by the end of this season... I don't know, but that's what I think will happen... right now, I would rather stick with the pairing we had against Hull... a game we actually won BTW...
I was at Watford, and Leon was piss-poor... couldn't be arsed to contribute... he was also poor at Reading (although was playing on his own, to be fair)... at least you know Harty will give 100% to the cause, and his work ethic seemed to rub off on CKR too... IMHO, Leon was rightfully dropped for the Hull game, and should stay well and truly dropped... I kinow this is just my opinion, but those are the last 3 games, and that is how I see it...
Please do quote the "facts" when you have them, in the meantime, I reckon we are better off cutting our losses on Leon...

In what situation would that choice ever conceivably arise?Icy Gull said:

Odd that it wasn't long ago that he captained Brighton, and said he was very proud to do so......

Still hardly a likely scenario is it?
