I'm honestly not that rsed mate, did we really expect him to sign a new deal?
When are we all gonna be realistic regarding our football club?

Why are you selling your best players?

Where's your ambition?

Because we can no longer afford to pay over inflated wages for average players, they have no loyalty what so ever, and only care about who pays the most money. footballs ruined, and it's gonna get worse.

Id take Lansbury too

Regard watt, I think he's got ability but never ever shown it apart from odd game

Sorry to see him go, wish we had signed Mendy as another option now. This transfer might give us a bit more spare to sign a decent replacement by the end of the window, or a bit more to spend on wages for a few season long loans.

"But it wont it's all gone to Monaco to buy a bigger yacht for Bates or add another jacuzzi to his bedroom or buy a diamond encrusted beard trimmer bla bla bla"

Oh shutup

IMO watt is useless and has done nothing to warrant a 3rd spell, I'd rather go with a more established champ player, someone like Darren ambrose, or of course we could just play Ramon Nunez, who has the potential to be better than gradel

How is it bates fault?

Well he didn't offer gradel a new deal.
He accepted the offer.
He won't disclose what we have got.
He Will pocket the cash whatever it is.
We won't ever see that money, not one penny.

Gradel is our most influential player. Nunez is not a like for like replacement, and Nunez is on the final year too.

Delph gone, schmeichel gone, gradel gone. All influential players who would have made a difference for the club if still here.

Leeds United are a selling club. Thanks to Bates.

Boro-white......I like your laid back attitude....everyone else panics while you lean back and put your feet up...top man...now you just need to get everyone else on here to chill

My mate is a leicester fan and he told me about Max's situation from a few years back.

Max has about 8 younger brothers and sisters. He is the sole guardian for them apparently.

His personal situation may have played a big part in wanting to leave as well

Club says one thing. Then does the opposite.
Grayson said no one was leaving and stated
Max and Snoddy. What's the betting against Snods
leaving by the close of the transfer window?

There'll be no more threads about Max Gradel. This is definately ther last one.

posted on 30/8/11

Look, why can't anyone see that we never had a hope in he'll of hanging onto gradel, johnson, Kilkenny, beckford, and we'll also lose snoddy next year. We will not be held to ransom by greedy over hyped players no longer, and I fully 100% agree with Kenneth bates and his stance. Shoot me down, but I'm realistic!

posted on 30/8/11

Positive from all of this: there's a place in the first XI for Nunez now.

Seriously though, thank you for all of your effort, Max, and the very best of luck to you at St. Etienne.

Midd White, I'm also realistic, Bates could give a flying f@#k about Leeds United and it's fans.

MW - i agree dont give in to greedy players, and if this is all it was then i'd agree 100% - but its not, if we had spent some of the delph money or kasper money then i'd say ok its a good deal so we can improve the squad, but its not KB is trying to do it all on the cheap and build hotels etc so eventually he can sell the club on for a massive profit, I used to think KB will do whats right for the club because the club do well it makes money then bates makes money but now I think he just wants the money!

posted on 30/8/11

Right ok, but were stuck with him regardless of anyone's opinion. Why not give gradel a hard time for wanting to leave?
But hey, it must be bates fault he's getting his pockets lined with a move.

Well it's safe to say we are going to be in the championship for years to come now. Once a player stands out they are gone.

Snoddy next then Clayton and maybe Nunez by this time next year.

Bates out
