"""""""""Ben """"""""""" 0 Posted January 23, 2012 He''s passed it and has agreed personal terms (According to Lambert on Radio Norfolk). Final bits of paper work just need to go through and it will be a done deal tomorrow i''m guessing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AJ 1,235 Posted January 23, 2012 He was supposedly at the game saturday as well. I''d expect this to be announced early this week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Salopian 1 Posted January 23, 2012 Everything is done and dusted, except his final decision, I think. I suspect that he asked for, or was given, the week-end to think things over, discuss with family, etc. We know that he was brought up in Leeds and has always been a supporter, so it''s a big decision for him. I hope that he says "yes" today, but you never know... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alysha 0 Posted January 23, 2012 It could even be a possibility that we have got somone else in, maybe a loan signing after De Laet was sent back, and they are just waiting to announce the deals at the same time and just do one press conference, set of interviews etc. Wishful thinking, I know.

Beauseant 0 Posted January 23, 2012 Knowing the way David McNally works I would be amazed if we had gone through the whole process of agreeing terms and a medical only to give him time to decide if he wants to come. If he wasn''t committed I would expect discussions to have been terminated at an early stage.I''m guessing there my have been some delay on the final medical report which made it impossible to announce the signing on Friday. If so it would have then made sense to leave it until after the weekend when the Media Department were back at work. I would stress that that''s just my opinion!

Old Shuck 192 Posted January 23, 2012 Prefer Alysha''s thoughts to my own and hoping that they are spot on!Mine are...Howson calls Leeds bluff by not agreeing new contract.Leeds call it back by accepting our bid.Howson further plays the game by accepting terms........and then you would expect something, if it is going to happen, occur between Howson and Leeds....thus he will stay and agree a new deal, each side having played a little bit of brinksmanship with the other with us as the tool of their craft. Verging on paranoia, absolutely, but it defers disappointment a little, if there is, or was, any to come.In anycase, Messrs McNally and Lambert would spot any sign of non committment or desire a light year away and would have pulled the plug then and there. So, all in all, hope today is a "welcome to Carra'' Rud Jonny" and yes, who knows, maybe there''ll be a little surprise on the loan scene. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

birchfest 397 Posted January 23, 2012 Well judging by that it sounds as if its just the last bits of paper work, he is happy with what we are offering, we are happy with his medical and Leeds are happy with the fee... likely just doting the I''s and crossing the T''s now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
