Building on a thread from another post, great furore when these long contracts were handed out like confetti, even in the closed season, people were still angry about them.
Yes there remains a couple that, in hindsight, were ill-thought through, but given the situation with O'Kane's leg, the old liberal in me doesn't resent the length of his contract.
The four year contracts now appear shrewd business, they were part of the reason why Saiz, Klich and Pontus were attracted to the club and others like Pirlo have certainly increased in value since signing.
No, I'm very happy with the length of contract these guys are on.
Four year contracts

AZA yeah totally agree... that's my stance on it too.. would just be interesting to see as a few have mentioned that these long contracts on the dross players have cost us money... personally I don;t think they have, as I suggested we may have covered the costs or at least clawed it back. which is why I wanted to see it.

Grot, Sacko, ideguchi, Ekuban, o’kane, de bock, Anita etc
It’s cost us a fortune and big reason why we have no money and had to sell Vieira.

this is what I'm disagreeing with, it would be good to see some figures to back this up that's all...

Think we all make statements that later we regret Kamara, I know I do, dear god! I wish could undo time, found a thread where you like me were slating Saiz, and this comment from LIW about Phillips:

He’s slow, can’t tackle ( giving cheap fouls away isn’t being able to tackle) sloppy passer
So, people change their minds, big deal.

Aye, we all tend to admit when we are wrong or had a rush of blood, some are like a dog with a bone fella

Well that's the end of that debate then
Wanted to pass the time on a cold wet Friday at work before the weekend with a good (but friendly) debate

We had a budget. I don't see the sale of Vieira having an impact on Leeds United as it stands.
The income from that sale helps to balance the books. Good business management. Can't believe anyone would be in disagreement with that.
