I remember the conflicting stories at the time. But i think Dunc would have known the detail.I recall at the time some minor outrage that one of his previous clubs missed out of a payment they would have been due had a fee been payable.
Always assumed we essentially got him via the Webster ruling.
If Moyes wants him, it will happen. His numbers are not good, Moyes even said that last season... But he works his socks off and seems a good guy.I've got a very good friend who supports Leeds and he said they (the fans) don't want him back so why on earth would we take him back? Swerve.
Don't see the downside if we can get him on a free given how thin the squad isAs a squad player I would take him. Works hard that’s about it. But if we could get him on a free knows the squad even said he enjoyed being here. As it stands we have about 18 players
He is terrible at football.Don't see the downside if we can get him on a free given how thin the squad is
He is absolutely crap, that is a very good downside. He has been here 2 years on loan and apart from a couple of decent games he has been dire. He is not going to mysteriously get better overnightDon't see the downside if we can get him on a free given how thin the squad is
A young/academy player perhaps, at least there's a possible upside in the ordeal.Would rather we get somebody unproven to fill up a squad place at worst they're as useless as Harrison so nothing really lost
The bit I don't get with Harrison is that if we took him back now, it would have to be a permananet transfer
He currently earns in the region of £80k to £90k per week in his Leeds contract - even if Leeds ripped that contract up and let him sign for us on a free, he's still going to want the same money (unless his agent is genuinely stupid), but this time we'd be paying him that sort of money (currently somewhere around the 5th highest earner) and having to hand him at least a 2 year contract (possibly more)
Him just being "on a free" and therefore being worthwhile is short-sighted IMO. The only possible way I'd be ok with it is if money really is tight and Leeds agreed to replicate the terms of the loan agreement of the last two years (and even then he'd be nowhere near the top of my list)
Of course he enjoyed it here, he’s on 90k and some of our fans praise him for working hard, easiest job In football. I’m hoping Moyes and the rest of the recruitment team, want a bit more from 90k a week wages. I wouldn’t take him on free. We can loan someone late in the widows who would offer more and cost lessAs a squad player I would take him. Works hard that’s about it. But if we could get him on a free knows the squad even said he enjoyed being here. As it stands we have about 18 players
