    In the summer he's rejected a new deal at Swansea and wants to join Leeds

    Isn't he from Leeds? I suppose that will be more of a factor than Leeds' prospects tbf

    Be disappointing if we couldn't give him a better deal than they could, should we stay up obviously.

    He was keen to work with Hecky back in August, as I recall.

    Would you have Hecky back if it meant getting mcburnie for another year?

    No. Furthermore, if there's any meat in this and he goes to Leeds he's got a lot less ambition than I thought and I respect him a lot less. He could easily make it at a top champ/ lower prem club.

    Good luck to the lad. He’s earned the right to choose wherever he wants to go. Been exceptional in every sense since joining us.

    Will probably be a good move for him. If Swansea were serious about him they wouldn't have let his contract run down. Another year in the Championship scoring at the rate he has for us and Premier league teams will be in for in for him. Leeds are on Sky every other week, so ideal shop window.

    Do you think the scouting network of premier league clubs constitutes watching sky sports?

    You've misread him, he was saying in August the previous manager still had a decent reputation for getting results and nurturing talent, meaning players were keen to work with him. This has been tarnished by over a year of piss poor performances at 2 different clubs.

    Think I typed that wrong I just meant nearly all of the signings in August said the same that they were keen to work with hecky.

    No, silly, but when signing are made it helps if fans are aware of the player, just like when Burnley signed Woods.
    If we'd all seen Knasmuller knocking them in for Wacker, or whatever, we might have a bit more confidence someone had an idea of what the **** they are doing.
