For the life of me I can't remember whether it was a bust up or JB simply being up front and honest and saying he wanted out Also heard that Reid effectively resigned at half time against Brentford. Which was roughly 44 minutes after the rest of them that day Iirc @RedM mentioned that she’d heard JB had wanted out in Jan and was not happy that he wasn’t allowed to go (Please correct me M I’ve misquoted you ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Army 75 Posted July 26, 2018 Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 Have asked and told not for £6m, but not sure how helpful that is. And no you won’t!! This quote above.

As I said, no idea if true. anytime a transfer request goes in rejected or otherwise it's in the media, so i don't think that's true. nether do i think there was a massive falling out, I just think it was players who hit their physical and mental peak and were knackered, look at some of the results 3-3 after being 3-0 up, 2-2 after being 2-0 up, 5-5 after being 4-2 up, Numerous last 10 minute goals conceded, thats not a team on strike that's a mental issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps it is that our pressing game takes too much out of the players so that physical tiredness late in games leaves them mentally fatigued and that this affects judgment and discipline. If we are to continue with the same or similar strategy then I would say this is something that has to be addressed to avoid a repetition of burnout later in the season.

brad blit Posted July 26, 2018 Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 We need a proper source on this, like the Leeds fan sat at a coffee table who spotted Vydra opposite him, so went over and asked if he was joining Leeds and he replied "not yet" - and yes there was actually photo evidence for once!

There was a great one on twitter last summer, someone sat in reception at Leeds United (?) and took a pic of someone talking to the receptionist and suggested a name, may even have been Flint. Some lad done some great maths, maybe a civil engineer to disprove the person in question was of the particular height of said player. Twitter at it's absolute finest. Pretty sure he proved the floor wasn't flat, either @Dolmanator - you've rubbished a previous post of mine about JB wanting out in January and Reid quitting at half time against Brentford. Can you elaborate on the reaction, which part, both parts etc? Just passing on what I heard..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it was Collier's transfer to Coventry that prompted Dicks to give the AG8 10 year contracts, and my immediate thought/recollection was that he had moved for nothing under a Bosman. There was something about his transfer - was it that he went for well below his "true' market value because he would have gone for nothing at the end of his contract?
