All the best Tom Lees. Hope all goes well for you. Sad to see you go.

It is a shame that Timid Tom has left as he had all the attributes to be a top centre back however along with the physical you also need mental attributes to realise that potential. Lees had an inability to concentrate for a full 90 minutes and when he made a mistake you could see the little confidence he had drain from him. It has been noted in other posts that Sheff Wed identify a player, make an offer, agree terms and sign a player in a matter of days whilst we continue to pass about. Granted our targets are overseas however technology has advanced from the pigeon post so I don't except that as a reason for not sorting paperwork

He never seemed the same to me after that violent u21 game he was involved in.I was hoping that would be the making of him after what happened

If a player is on £5k a week and its a straight sale then the paper work can be done without delay in a matter of hours. However if a player is on more money and it includes bonuses, injury clauses, possible buy out clauses after the loan spell expires or any other amount of pre-contract agreements then this will take CONSIDERABLY longer.

Where can I find this advanced communication technology? I'm fed up with my pigeons letting me down.

Days maybe Andy but not weeks

If you are correct Andy, the Viviani contract is going to be longer that War and Peace. I could have read it, and probably written it, while we've been waiting!

Good point and m. You are right. He is best moved on. Cellino doesn't mess about.

Should have Harry Rednapp in charge of closing signings he manages to sign three players in the last hour of a transfer widow whilst Leeds take 3 weeks to complete a loan signing. Being based in Italy should delay a transfer for a matter of hours not weeks.

Notts
The players we are rumoured to be signing are rumours, hence that's why they are NOT at leeds now. Weve even been linked with players that are out of our league!
DONT believe everything you read ;)

Sorry Andy think you are missing the point, I was referring to the Viviani loan deal. I assume this is not made up?

Ahhh
Right Notts you NEVER mentioned a name and as we have been linked with EVERY Tom, dick n harry I take everyone with a pinch of salt a lately.
As for Viviani i'm sure MC wants the lad but has the BEST INTERESTS of the club at heart and he's trying to strike the right deal.
(Something we are not use to at ER)
