Well don't post or read the thread then. I actually enjoy talking to footballers as do others on here.

Don't some people make you sick!
Glad to hear someone has spoken to him good stuffJust had a great ten minute call with Leon - really nice guy, hope he gets sorted soon
Fine, but getting beyound the starstruck teenagers syndrome, we have here an ex-player trying to resurrect his failed career - which is fine, we all have to earn a living. But anyone who thinks Leon Knight is the answer to our striking needs is asking a SERIOUSLY f***ed up question.
Gus has already weeded out the, how shall we say, "unfocussed" players in the squad when he binned the likes of Dickinson and Cox. He wants PROFESSIONALS with PROFESSIONAL ATTITUDES. And splice it any way you like, but Leons conduct here and at every other club ever since has been anything but.
He comes across on here as a perfectly pleasant chap, and during the normal course of things I'm sure he is. But his career as a footballer has been a train wreck, and right now, we simply do not need this kind of baggage arriving in the 'shoebox' dressing room. Not this season, not ever.
I respect your opinion but i've think you have already made your point clear before. You are just simply regurgitating it again.
You have slightly gone off your original comment about getting "desperate/sad etc.
All i was saying is... don't read this thread if you have lost interest.There's plenty of threads on here i wouldn't touch let alone open ie Tour de bullshit.

Leon, if Brighton don't want you how about a move to Stockport, as I'm sure El Presidente will vouch it is a delightful part of the country . Give Paul Simpson a ring, I'm sure you'd get a trial.
Imagine the legendary status you would receive if you were instrumental in helping a team that has been down to rock bottom, rise from the ashes like a majestic phoenix. How proud would your children feel then?
I know the younger, less mature Leon Knight may have scoffed and thought himself too big for a team like Stockport, but I'm sure now you recognise that no one player is bigger than any club. I know you are clearly better than Jermaine Defoe, but did you know George Best (surely even young Leon wouldn't claim to be better than him) played for Stockport County.
Fancy bagging 30 goals next season in League 2? this time next year you would be fighting teams off. If not for the opportunity to prove yourself again, consider it for the comedy value of pairing up with the man mountain Barry Conlon in what would be the funniest strike partnership of all time.
Think about it
While we're pathetically keeping 'strikers' like OGH and Holroyd on the books, its a question that needs asking.
I thought County were in admin? I'm sure Leon doesn't want to earn monopoly money.
Christ don't you go onIt isn't.
It REALLY REALLY isn't.
I trust Gus will have something up his sleeve that won't involve a troublesome washed-up has been who has done nothing for the last 5 years except piss off every club he's been at.
Fair play to County then.At least your club can now move forward.No we came out of admin in June. We are now rebuilding and it seems we have a quite competitive wage budget.

Washed up or not he gave us some splendid moments
