Lakenheath Old Boys

We are all former students at Lakenheath High School and other public schools in East Anglia. We were in school in the 70s and 80s and drank deeply from the well of British culture of those decades - the pints, the telly, and of course the footie!

The Leeds Kid Responds to the Gradel Move

I am still puzzled over this one. Several things come to mind. Leeds may have needed the money. Was there a large sum collected from St. Etienne? Perhaps Gradel pulled a Modric and wanted out. This could have been done behind the scenes. It was done at the last minute and is really odd. I am sure the picture describes how you feel about the move . Perhaps someone like Ramon Nunez or Lloyd Sam can take over his position. I hope everything works out.

It is puzzling. According to the club, Max handed in a transfer request at the 11th hour that surprised everyone. The fee is still "undisclosed," but judging on our recent deals (Beckford sold for £2 million, for example) it won't be much. I don't know. In the near term, we're still going to be a selling club. Ramon would seem to be the perfect replacement and we're fortunate that he's on form. Thanks for the hopeful thoughts.

Very odd. You didn't get near enough for him to compensate for his loss. Captain Birdseye's got some 'splaining to do.
