I just wanted to let you know good luck. We're all counting on you.
Does anyone know his MO?
Bruv, you been sleep talking to Gully again?
colleague who is a Leicester fan informs me that Beckford is currently on £45k/week.
either we're going to smash our current wage structure wide open or this isn't going to happen.
Owen is NOT going to Cardiff, according to Moose on twitter.

Everton is where MO is heading mate.
How much longer is his contract at Leicester on that sort of money?
If the deal we offer is 2-3 years longer than he has left at Leicester, he may rather that sort of security albeit at a greatly reduced wage.
I can't see us paying anything like that sort of money (not even close to half) for a guy who - like CMS - has done very little above League One.

RIP Leslie. A brilliant actor
Interestingly I Google'd this to see how valid the £45k figure felt - several mentions and one argument between two people on a LCFC site where the argument seemed to be whether he was earning more than the supposed cap of £35k/week - with someone claiming links to top of club. At no point was it ever suggested in that conversation he'd be on less than £35k!!!
The fact he signed 40mins before close of window last August would also suggest that money started to get overlooked as a potential barrier to the deal - and probably that LCFC signed up to silly terms.
He has three more years on contract!
Don't see this happening.
