mind you, he did against lowly wrexham and was pure dogshit!!! Fact



When you say 'was pure dogshit', I presume what you meant to type was 'came on as sub after 65 minutes, and scored a great header to keep us in the competition'?

CMS is not off. Poyet is just stating the obvious. If we need a striker now, but sell CMS, we will then need 2. It's a headache Poyet and Bloom will not want

Was at the pub last night, met somebody from Leeds who is down visiting family. He seemed pretty certain that Mackail Smith is signing for them and the deal is to be done before the season starts, I wasn't too sure whether to believe him but he seemed a decent bloke and had a long chat about the two clubs, wished us well for the coming season.

Well if the bloke from the pub said it, it must be true.

Was it Neil Warnock?

From Sky, who say we won't sell CMS until we have our striker lined up:

Sky Sports understands Leeds are closing in on a deal for Brighton striker Craig Mackail-Smith.

The two clubs are locked in talks as they try to thrash out a deal for the Scotland international.

Leeds boss Neil Warnock has made Mackail-Smith his top target as he looks to bolster his attacking options at Elland Road.

A possible swap deal with Ross McCormack going to Brighton has been mooted, but it is believed a number of other clubs are chasing the former Cardiff man.

Brighton are thought to be willing to offload Mackail-Smith despite paying a club record £2.5million to sign the player from Peterborough last summer.

Mackail-Smith scored 10 goals for the Seagulls last term, but Gus Poyet is ready to sell him to bring in a new target man.

Brighton are thought to be waiting to bring in a replacement before sanctioning the sale of Mackail-Smith.

Wasn't that posted a few days ago and most agreed it was rubbish and without foundation.

Sounds entirely plausible.

Poyet is building his team around him quite vocally. Anyone that believes a rumour from Sky Sports is a moron. They come up with all sorts of tripe. Pay attention to what our manager says rather than a broadcasting company for f*** sake.
