RUMOURs - Shiny and new - Spring/Summer 2014

He retweets everything like a madman guys. I don't think it's ever going to be an indictment of what club he signs for. My guess is that his English isn't very good and he's retweeting things cos he's mentioned and shown to be scoring quality goals. But I don't know.

Seems that way. All the tweets are cancelling each other out, so I guess the twittersphere is not a reliable indicator of anything. Based on my indepth study of the issue which began about 15 minutes ago.

People on twitter suggesting that he's been at Elland Road this morning.

This is doing my head in lol! Now Leeds seem confident of signing him... I've done my bit tweeted him to explain I live in Leeds for a lot of the year and its a shithole, and how London is the best city in the world. All true except for the fact I actually love Leeds.

Twitter is comical! Delort is loving this.

Reams stating the deal is being thrashed out as we speak

That's good news. Really hope we can get it over the line, would be good to have him in the squad on Saturday.

Oh by the way Reams knows as much as you and me!

If this does fall through, do we have a contingency plan,

This is a total guess but, I think The club and Bob know what they're doing?

I never said they did not, just a simple question.
he seems to be the only name mentioned now, so I was just wondering if we don't get him, is that it, or is there someone else they might have in mind

He's gone to Brighton.

And I meant that no matter what any of us say do or think on here is not going to make a jot of difference to what is actually happening, so 'we' don't need a contingency plan me thinks

I need a contingency plan for what I'm going to do with the rest of the day if I can't spend it writing excited sh*t about a footballer who is now the biggest single thing in my life.

Having sold McCormack for a vast fee, Leeds have an urgent requirement for a replacement, and I imagine money to play with...

Talks still ongoing at 11am . But looks like his agent and club trying to play us off against other clubs ... Been told we have given them a deadline or we go elsewhere !!
This as come from our physio team at the training ground
The player was at the hotel in Canary Wharf last night ...

Top stuff Colin.

The important thing is will he live in the centre of Leeds and what is his birthdate.

We have no chance if these stack up

I don't like the sound of that, why give an ultimatum for a player we need and other clubs want. No harm done for them if Charlton give a final offer not good enough. Really want us to go out and get this guy. Delort and maybe a centre attacking mid and I'll be completely confident going into the next season.

Let's see if Reams gets his info right.

But with no ultimatum we may not get him anyway, and will have wasted time on him when we could pursue other options.
