Snodgrass price is £8m

[alysha 0]

David McNally -  “We’re pleased we have signed three and we are confident we can complete another two before the lads come back for pre-season training which is the first week of July. That would give us five new faces, there might be one or two more after then, but the aim always was to land Paul’s top five targets prior to the start of first team training so they can have a full pre-season with their colleagues before the season starts in early August.

 

Am I reading too much into this, or does this suggest that McNally is still confident we will be able to bring in all of Lambert''s top five targets, one of which is presumably Snodgrass?

[quote user="Ncfc"]We have just signed Morison on a deal which could rise to almost £3 million , in my opinion Snodgrass is two or three times the player Morison is so you work out his value , you buy British you pay way over the odds thats just how it is nowadays .[/quote]

"Could rise to almost £3M"  but starting at ? (£1.5M?). "Two or three times the player" - not sure how you come to that conclusion  but if it is 2 times, 2x1.5M = £3M but 2 x £3M = £6M. If he is 3 times, 3x1.5M = £4.5M and 3x3M = £9M. So on your logic, anything between £3M and £9M. Thanks for your contribution. Really clarifies everything and puts it into perspective.

[/quote]Morison is £2.1 million rising to £2.8 million , god knows where you dreamed up £1.5million , the point was if you pay nearly £3 million for an average player just out of non league you expect to pay a lot more for one of the stars of the division .

This might make it more possible, if this lot want big wages. You''d think they would be following our template for success rather than signing has-beens dining out on their Champions League Semi Final run from years ago.

Man U must feel temped to let Ferdinand go back now they''ve just signed a centre back for 20 million. Seeing theres an old school reunion idea going on.

Like buggery Snodgrass is £8mill. When will those monkey''s realise they''re not a massive premiership club anymore.

According to Sky Sports, Leeds are contemplating an offer from Leicester of 1 million pounds for Kasper Schmeichel. If everything is to be believed, how they will only be willing to accept offers over 8 million pound for Snodgrass, but could possibly let a young promising keeper such as Schmeichel go to a team competing in the same league for 1 million pounds is beyond me.

This has now been made official on the Leeds website that an ''undisclosed fee'' has been accepted for Schmeichel, bet Leeds fans are fuming!

Schmeichel has always looked poor when I''ve seen him. If I were Leeds I bite Leicester''s hand off if their offer was 1m. Ruddy cost us less than half that didn''t he? And he''s twice the keeper. I''d rather stick Rudd in than Schmeichel if he was with us.

[Legend Iwan 30]

I''d exxpect Schmeichel''s transfer to cost a little bit more. He''s in the last year of his contract so better to get some decent money now than not come the end of the season. Can get a good player in for the same money and probably cheaper wages.

The whole 8mil is just Bates talking if you want him this is goning to be the cost. Not Snodgrass'' actual cost. Leeds don''t need to sell so why should they. Especially to a team they might be playing against next season and has just got a nice big transfer budget. To be honest I would rather go after Pilkington.

[Block Y Seat 176 80]

I''ll be glad when Bates gets back from his hols to sort it out.

Oh dear, I seem to have upset our resident bin boy.

" it was reported everywhere"

Apart from both clubs respective official websites where the reporting is that it was for an undisclosed fee.

Of course the reason our young farmhand wants the fee to be thought of as jigher can be seen in his snide dig at us -

"the point was if you pay nearly £3 million for an average player just out of non league "

Still our impoverished neighbours do have their countdown clock and their much trumpeted Operation Premiership. So who are we to talk of our average players .... it''s not as if they have done anything these past two seasons is it, bin boy ?

You of course are all forgetting there is a second club involved in this. The club who currently have Snodgrass under contract, and who neither want to nor need to sell him. Why on earth should they quote a price that the buying club find reasonable?

Well they have just sold Schmeichel (still under contract)for £1m and he doesn''t even want to go! So the price must be right, and/or they need to sell him

I have a 1982 Ford Escort, need to sell it desperately as it will never run the same next year, I need the money to put towards something newer - I want 30k raising to 40k if you get it through the MOT

[quote user="sgncfc"]

Amazing how Leeds didn''t go up really when they apparently have one winger worth £8m, another worth £4-5m plus Johnson (so obviously a Premier League player), Becchio (goalscorer), Kasper the keeper, Kilkenney (better than Hoolahan according to Leeds fans) etc.

Yet they didn''t even make the play-offs. Makes you wonder whether their manager is any good.......

I can''t believe i signed up just because of this post.

Snodgrass obviously isn''t worth £8million you muppet, we don''t want to sell our best players is all

Johnson a premier league player? :| I''ve watched him week in week out for a few years now, he is awful. He counts himself as an ''Attacking midfielder'' but he''s so terrible he''s made to play in a defensive midfield role so we can limit the amount of damage he does when he gets the ball. We literally have no other player who is big enough to do this job, hence why Johnson was a regular last season. He''s completely brain dead as a footballer, and he has a power shot that 99 times out of a hundred hits row Z. And the frustrating thing is he shoots all the time because he thinks he can.

Kilkenny isn''t better than Hoolahan. Whoever you are quoting is a muppet

We didn''t make the playoffs because we have a terrible back 5 and a weak central midfield.

[Bill 1,788]

"He''s completely brain dead as a footballer"

He must have fitted in well with many of your fans

Personally I would love Snodgrass at FCR, £8 million is a bit steep for sure but I really hop we are trying to push as much as we can on this one.

If Henderson went to Liverpool for £18million/Jones to Man Utd for £16 million or whatever price it was finally surely Snodgrass is worth £6million?

If the deal for Snodgrass is too much though I would love us to push on with a bid for McGugan from Forest although who knows if hes even on Lamberts radar?

As regards Pilkington I dont know a great deal about him but would like someone who has a little more experience....

Has someone offered you 20k for it?

I want to buy a house that isn''t for sale, and I''m going to arrogantly complain that the owners won''t sell it for my price.

[quote user="CanaryJames"]Schmeichel going for £1million suits us down to the ground.

With Kilkenny/Johnson having already gone, and Schmeichel on the way out, I''d imagine a number of Leeds players will become disillusioned before long.

Personally I can Snodgrass handing in a transfer request once Gradel also leaves, allowing us to pick up Snodgrass for around £3million plus add-on''s.

Like last summers'' signings had League 1 written all over them? Yeah your right, Lambert hasn''t got a clue, if only he had signed better players, who knows what we could have achieved

"this from the fan of a club. who''s fans are racist to their own players "

as opposed to simply being racist

"look at the players lambert has signed championship players written all over them"

or look at the players who Lambert signed the season before ... league 1 written all over them, but still pee-ed all over your bunch of failures - perhaps you could remind us how many points you were ahead of us, and hiow many we finished ahead of you ?

or look at the players Lambert signed last season ..... and how we once again pee-ed all over your faillures - failures who didn''t even make the play offs

nor did we, come to that - we went straight up, he he

[CanaryJames 0]

Because I''d imagine your players will steadily grow tired of not having any team-mates, whether they liked them or not...

[crabbycanary 2]

Oh dear, two Leeds fans on here and neither have any faith in their Club.

One questions the managers ability to produce a good team over time, as he/she questions him about constantly picking Johnson.

The other says ''see you in 2012'', saying we will get relegated,soanother one not confident about their teams ability, this time to get promoted

Who says Morison is an "average player"? Answer, you! Who says a player just out of the lower Scottish divisions is "one of the stars of the division"? Answer, you! Just your opinion. Not fact! You have referred to someone else on this board as a "pathetic idiot". I would suggest that that more than adequately describes you.

Haha. You say all this like Lambert is notorious for making terrible purchases and fails to get the best out of his players. If you could swap Paul Lambert for Simon "I bottled it twice" Grayson you would do so in a heartbeat.

Norwich look set to miss out on Leeds United midfielder

Robert Snodgrass as the Yorkshire club prepare to offer him an improved

deal.

The Canaries have been heavily linked with a move for the

Scotland international this summer, with reports indicating they have

had three bids rejected by the Whites.

Leeds are thought to have put an £8million price tag on Snodgrass''s

head, a sum Norwich are unwilling to match as they look to continue

their summer of sensible purchases.

If Norwich were thinking about making a fourth bid for Snodgrass it

appears as though they may have wait too long; Leeds are ready to offer

Snodgrass a new contract to ward off any interested clubs.
