A very interesting development, this. Need more information but if he's been arrested in Dubai, the complaint has been brought by GFH. It seemed pretty obvious that Haigh's primary interest in his Leeds dealings was David Haigh Inc. He'll likely argue that he is being made a scapegoat so GFH somehow avoid liability for concealing debt during the sale of Leeds to Cellino but, not sure if this is ultimately good news for either us or Mr Cellino.
That debt still exists and is owed to GFH so the sale price should have been lower to take this into account. GFH 'should' accept liability in this because it was their man handling the sale but, correct me if I'm wrong; didn't Haigh stop working for GFH directly just before the sale? Messy messy messy

Ipswich looking to take green now he is a free agent and looking at Norris who would be allowed to leave on a free. They want experience in the midfield area.
West brom keen on Byram, to replace Steven Reid.
Bristol city are interested in Scott wootton.
Leeds interested in Andy king from leicester and looking at who arsenal sign in the summer with interest in bringing in zelalem and Gnabry on loan.

Bristol City interested in Wootton? That's definitely the best news of the summer to date! About the right level for the lad too.

Happy if all that's true especially Wootton. Sam seems to have fitness issues so if we get a good offer I think we should cash in

Gnabry would be a good option actually, I think we should take a punt on Pringle and agard from Rotherham and the Peterborough forward who's name I can't spell

Leeds looking at readings Royston Drenthe. It says on direct sport that MC is a big fan as he can play left full back or left wing and has played for Real Madrid and Everton and MC see, s him as the type of player needed to help us back to the premier league. What do people think as Charlie Taylor has signed today and also plays left full back?

I think it's clever ploy to get the rent reduced .
After all who else would use it or could afford it .
Think! if you ring up your sat service and say you want to cancel do they give you a better deal to keep you as a customer?
Think M C is a cunning so and so who will look to get the best deal and I don't blame him .

Charlie Taylor has a lot of ability. Now Pugh and Drury are out of the way, we should see him figure a lot more.
