I'm not his biggest fan but I don't begrudge him the chance to make a living. I've signed. He wasn't always a tosser.

Don't know the facts but would surmise that they extended the contract so that they can retain his registration which is the thing that prevents him signing for another club in this country.

But wouldn't that require Leon to have agreed to the extention for R&D to retain his registration? Even if that isn't the case, the fact he was sacked annuls his contract and therefore the option of the extention.

Is that right?

Not when he was scoring lots of goals for us no. Subsequently though. However, if he owes R & D money then they should go after him for it as I can't see how they can hold somebody they've sacked to ransom, they either have a case for legal action or he does. The thing is that there's no way anybody will pay a fee for him and there's not a lot of point in R & D suing him if he's unemployed.

Not everyone judges, whether somebody is a cock or not, purely on how many goals they score.

Even when he was scoring, MANY Albion fans were still not especially keen on the bloke. He was always a diving, whiney petulant little bloke with a huge chip on his shoulder.

I'm aware of that but it's a bit petty of R & D as what will they gain ?

To be fair, you missed a penalty for your football team on Sunday, and now your team mates all think you're a tosspot, like the rest of us.

I have signed it because irrespective of anything else he is entitled to carry on his occupation and earn a living, as indeed anybody is, and it is not for R & D to deny him that right.

I do however, feel that a competatant lawyer would be more beneficial than a petition.
