Quote: jonh "We know how to support him better?
By turning a blind eye to all his off field antics and then sending him off to Australia when they became too much of a problem?
Done wonders for him that treatment!
Maybe if Leeds had dealt with him in the correct way in the first place his career would have ended up very differently rather than him getting sacked from every club he has played for.'"
He’d been involved in a lot of bad things and Leeds stood by him . If he was less talented he would have been moved on way before, but that’s sport and business. He then decided to run and ask to leave as soon as we had a bad patch . He was not shipped out to Oz at all, he requested a loan away. But then sold to Cas when he came back a bit humbled, as we couldn’t allow him back at that point.
He’s still had a brilliant career, even after Leeds. Wasn’t he your player of the season one year?
It’s also not easy commuting M62, especially with a baby and sleepless nights…….
