Plymouth are to sell eight first team players, as they look to overcome their financial problems ahead of a hmrc court date.

the club hope to raise £2m to stay in business. players expected to leave are wright-phillips, noone, patterson, paterson, clark, duguid, n'gala, and zubar.

the club will also allow players out on loan (johnson, fallon, leonard, donnelly, kinsella, seip, trott and maclean) to stay with their loan clubs if they can offer them permanent deals. maclean is 99% likely to sign permanently for oxford in january, but stockport may miss out on donnelly as they do not have enough money to sign him permanently. bury and crewe want donnelly and so do about 8 other league 2 clubs.

plymouth will have to rely on their youth players to come good for them, and will also be without peter reid who is leaving the club and been offered a role with notts county under paul ince. reid wants to take duguid with him, and ince wants to add him to the notts squad.(6)(8)

To the person who stated Leeds are after Welsh international Steve Morison and that Millwall will want somewhere in the region of 750k or a swap deal for Morison.Here are some facts for you to mull over:
1. Kenny Jackett has stated he will not sell Morison to anyone in the Championship certainly not for as paltry a sum as that.
2. Millwall as a club are debt free (externally) and thus Jackett is under no pressure whatsoever to sell Morison or in fact any player currently on the clubs books.

So Leeds fans get over it you are not signing him.(12)(9)

 

 24 Dec 2010 15:20:33
Leeds united rumours: defenders: andy o brien has expressed interest in making his stay at Leeds permanent. Mcartney wants too stay but the wage demands are holding any sort if deal to become complete. If Leeds can't tie down both of these, they will pop into the loan Market, the favourite seems to be woodgate. Midfielders: Leeds are looking at michael Johnson after he alerted grayson with a "come and get me" message. If Bradley Johnson leaves, grayson will look to buy, favourites are alan smith and michael Tongue who is impressing at Preston. Wingers: Leeds asked Barnsley about Adam Hammill situation buy were told they don't wish too sell. Strikers: leeds have made inquiries about Steve Morison. They have also made loan enquiries about James Vaughan and zavalon Hines. That is currently all I've heard.(14)(13)
