McCormack (Official)

Post by Mikey »

According to Sky Sports Leeds have agreed a fee with Cardiff City for Scottish centre forward Ross McCormack.

http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528, ... 82,00.html

Although the fee has been agreed, personal terms are yet to be negotiated.

Could potentially be a good signing if his debut season is anything to go by. Bates, get your friggin' check book out, you old bast*ard!

would be a quality signing and would leave us with four top strikers... were leading the chase to sign him apparently!

Had a feeling we'd sign him, not done yet but looks like it! Somma, McCormack, Paynter & Becchio!

Somma & McCormack upfront wow, that could really work. Becchio hmm you could struggle to get in the first team mate if they do well, im typing this as though you are actually reading this luciano, but i doubt you are.

Becchio is brilliant. Like a second rate Tevez, which is a huge compliment. Proper effort, always moving and knows the back of the net.

A bit freaky, he was born on 18 August 1986, I was born 18 August 1966. :shock:

Becchio should always be first on the team sheet, he will work his socks off for the team. He doesn't care if he doesn't score and his tenacity will allow players like Somma to find space to score.

Willie McKay, the 24-year-old's representative, said he had been given permission by Cardiff to discuss terms with Leeds and two other unnamed clubs. YEP

One team i think is Leicester City, QPR and maybe Ipswich no secret they could do with another striker with Scotland there,
no doubt fee has being agreed just we will not pay him what he wants, i dont feel he will come IMO

Good news but does not mean he is signed he needs to agree personal terms, this has only being leaked due to his agent...

Could end up like Jay SImpson and Jay Bothroyd when he chose Cardiff over us...

Very unusual for Leeds to comfirm anything unless the information is concrete

Wow, that's freaky Dan - someone being born 20 years after you.

It didn't happen with me, I was born on 31 May 1952 but nobody was born on 31 May 1972. I once heard a rumour that there had been a little girl born in Tunisia, but when I checked it out she was actually born on 1 June 1972.
