The way I am reading this is that they have not increased the bid? So we rejected a bid and then accepted the same offer?....
Anyone know whats going on here cos I think sky knows im a bit hungover and is deliberately trying to confuse me here!!!!
Ummm, which is it?

Is it possible they thought snoddy might stay because of the new signings, but he has point blank refused so they have done a U-turn and accepted?

These transfer deals can be complicated with a certain amount up front then instalments on the balance. Then their can be add ons depending on number of appearances then there may be a sell on clause etc etc.
Maybe it is a case that Norwich did not offer a new bid in terms of overall fee but that the terms were renegotiated which were more favourable to Leeds or it could be the case that Snodgrass said I want to go and play for Norwich and that was that.
It does however somewhat blow a rather large hole in Warnocks stated intention to build a team around Snodgrass.

They put 1 bid in at the start of the month which we declined they made an improved offer which Hughton says which from what I remember we were 'thinking about' according to all the reports looks like we have now accepted that, I don't think it came out that we rejected the newer bid.
