He was deemed good enough AT THE TIME HE WAS BOUGHT. It really is as simple as that.
The opportunity presented itself to UPGRADE the squad, and KB took that now. Would you rather he didn't get Nicholls in at all? Or got them in but left Livermore in the reserves (when you lot would have been slagging KB off for buying someone and never giving them a chance like Harding)? As for feeling sorry for players - after the way LUFC has been shafted over the last few years I don't feel sorry for any of them. At the end of the day Livermore could have said he wanted to stay put, but he decided he would rather go to Hull for first team football. You cant exclusively cancel a contract or make someone sign one. It has to be a mutual decision. In other words Livermore agreed to go. Losing or gaining on the deal is not the point, correct. The point is getting the best possible team/side to play for us this season, and to do that KB had to sell Livermore. THAT'S the point. -----Original Message----- From: Jim Moran [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 02 August 2006 16:29 To: 'Mark Humphries'; 'Sean Emmott'; [email protected] Subject: RE: [LU] Livermore SOLD Not really, I think we've treated Livermore like shit. If he wasn't good enough, we shouldn't have gone for him. And there's no chance we've made money on the deal, maybe we didn't lose too much, but that's not the point. I think it's just a sign of bad skills in the transfer market, and yet another example of the reasons I don't like Blackwell. -----Original Message----- From: Mark Humphries [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 02 August 2006 09:29 To: 'Jim Moran'; 'Sean Emmott'; [email protected] Subject: RE: [LU] Livermore SOLD Did you ever say that on the list? If he has now gone, and we made a few quid on the deal, you'd be happy then presumably? _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
