I think there is a breed of player that would say that about any club and go to the highest bidder but we have seen a few join us for what I presume wasn't all to do with wages.
Thinking the 2 flops from Swansea, Paynter, Kasper etc. who all had offers from elsewhere to come to I also quite liked the recruit a leeds fan policy although that hasn't really worked out either . bromby, Naylor If it's a straight fight on the same money between us, Forest, Norwich, Millwall, Reading, Hull, Burnley, Swansea, Cardiff etc.. 9 times out of 10 we will get them. I don't think a modern footballer even considers Bates as a stumbling block. And also a lot of its hype, despite the end of season flop we are a big club with a great up and coming manager with a big fan base who have done the club proud in major FA Cup games. Remember when we lost to Arsenal or Spurs I think it was the presenter was creaming himself about Leeds being back in the big time sooner rather than later and I think that's the message that players get. I bet if you went on the Norwich or Cardiff email lists they would be moaning about Dave Jones or some full back or something just as they would on the Norwich list about Hoolahan being too light weight or something! There might even be a bloke slagging off Grant Holt calling him lucky each week. We are far harsher on our team then others around and for that reason we are going up next season From: leedslist-boun...@gn.apc.org [mailto:leedslist-boun...@gn.apc.org] On Behalf Of barbaravi...@gmail.com Sent: 28 April 2011 12:34 To: leedslist@gn.apc.org Subject: Re: [LU] KO Saturday On 28/04/2011 12:16, Matt Anderson wrote: > Leeds is still a massive draw for any player.

What I do feel is that players who do think that way and mean it are what we need. betty _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman-new.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org MARCHING ON TOGETHER (There's it) _____ No virus found in this message.
