So we are linked with 2 players we released, Sawyers and Roofe. Not very inspiring. Who next? Berahino? Tyler Roberts?, the latter I would have kept. I watched him at Walsall, his movement and finishing was very good.
A shambles of a season on and off the pitch, in coming players and those we let go! The Jonny Evans saga, from £25m to £3m and even that is in 2 instalments.
I have renewed my season ticket because I love the Albion but my head says we will be here in the Championship for a while, my heart is still crushed and no matter what I do or hear it’s not getting fixed.

I don't have to much of a problem with Roofe, certainly as I do not think we should have released him in the first place. Roofe was becoming a good Championship player, but still not experienced enough to cut it in the greed league. Well now we are in the Chump, why not bring in a player who we know the capabilities of, over a player whom we think we know the abilities of?

Of course, it's all paper talk, so I'll take the links with a pinch of salt...
BUT... I'm not inspired by these names at all.
They're average Championship players at best. Roofe was good at Oxford in League 2 but hasn't set the world alight for Leeds. In fact, their fans think he's sh*te and has an attitude that stinks. Sawyers is a decent footballer, but doesn't have enough end product considering his ability. As for Reid, I've seen a fair bit of him as a friend is a Bristol City fan. He has had 1 good season and looks a decent prospect, but is largely unproven. The money being touted seems too high for a player entering the last year of his contract - I'd classify this as a gamble if it is true.

Yacob and Morrison released. Another silly decision imo. Going from bad to worse. Hopefully I start cheering up soon because fed up with everything Albion at the minute.
