Dan James - Is he off ? 08:58 - Jan 30 with 74514 views | SWANSEYE | ON TWITTER THIS MORNING......IS THE DEAL GOING DOWN OR IS IT STILL A LOAD OF B******S !!! J.J @jjbtdc247 · 10h Replying to @PhilHayYEP and 2 others Close to an agreement or nowhere near? Phil Hay @PhilHayYEP it’s like this. Club have been confident but even forgetting them, I spoke to someone close to James yesterday who said it will “100% get done” (his words not mine, just so we’re clear). It’s been hanging that way since last week. Question now is whether it’ll actually go through | ![](/images/avatars/19774.gif) | | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Dan James - Is he off ? on 10:11 - Jan 31 by magicdaps10 | So lets look at this, if we lose James and Montero.......surely, you would expect a replacement? I will leave you answer that one. |
is Montero on crazy money still? £30,000? Assume the idiots in the board room didn't put a relegation release clause into his contract? If so, as much as it pains me after Birmingham game to say this, and i do like the player - but surely understandable getting him off the wage bill for the amount of minutes he can actually play? The James situation, I don't know, it's sad. If he wants to go however, let him go. Just get a sizable fee in for him. £5 million plus add on's isn't such a bad deal for a player on 18 months left. You would pray we'd see a replacement for a winger. Or somewhere in the squad please. Although, I am quite realistic about the Swans (ie selling of players to restructure wage) Potter surely knew the score when he got involved; and he's stated so in numerous interviews. But, we're severely paying for our past mistakes of panic buying. Real bad way this club is in! These Yanks are one of the worst things to happen to the club, no investment - what was the point in them getting involved? I don't know. | ![](/images/avatars/16814.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

"What was the point of them getting involved" To line Jenkins and co's pockets. By fans, for fans the biggest urban myth since the Loch Ness Monster | ![](/images/avatars/8681.gif) |

"But, we're severely paying for our past mistakes of panic buying" Is this more of panic selling though? Leeds the only club mentioned in having any interest. So a case of grab the money while they can. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Hardly panic selling if James wants to go and we get a decent fee for him. Panic selling it what I would suggest happened to either of the Ayew brothers. | ![](/images/avatars/16814.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) | Login to get fewer ads

Hi wasn't trying to disguise myself. I fully understand your situation. its a horrible situation to be in. just saying im not sure its a total shock he wants to come, clearly conductiing himself very well though. no formal transfer request etc. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

"Wants to go" or as I've read showing an interest. If he wants to go he could put in a transfer request, it's not as if he's on a high pay off. I'm not saying he wouldn't be open to a move back to Yorkshire, but does the club need to sell now? Or just not taking a chance that his worth will drop | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Dan James - Is he off ? on 10:29 - Jan 31 with 2464 views | richp | also some insight from our end looks like this loan deal would mean you potentially get a bigger lump sum in the summer also goes into next seasons accounts to help with ffp etc | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Dan James - Is he off ? on 10:30 - Jan 31 with 2456 views | jack2jack | I'm sorry but I don't see any mileage in this at all,it's the usual bollox,player says he's happy,he's getting his starts,and is doing well. If 1 million has been offered, I'd laugh at Leeds,and fvck them right off, jeez were not that desperate for cash surely. Besides we'd have to spend more than that to replace him and get someone who's no better. File under no chance.(I hope). | ![](/images/avatars/21126.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Whilst your original point could make sense I am being told otherwise. I am keen that the owners who are already taking the mickey don't get to do the same on this occasion by throwing a player under the bus when its their decision. | ![](/images/avatars/9229.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

also wouldnt surprise me weve had numerous owners who have played those types of games. this is trademark bates/gfh/cellino wait till last day of window, sell young talent, no time to replace them and pretend they were desperate to get out. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Dan James - Is he off ? on 10:33 - Jan 31 with 2391 views | jack247 | So far we’ve got.... He wants to leave He wants to stay The club want him out and won’t give him a new contract He’s refusing to sign a new contract It’s £6m plus £4m addons It’s £3.5m plus £1.5m addons It’s a £1m loan All from people who have no reason to doubt their sources. We’re just going to have to sit this one out and hope for the best. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Dan James - Is he off ? on 10:14 - Jan 31 by 34dfgdf54 | I'm sorry, there's no way James is forcing a move. What DCD is saying is the most realistic, he wants a new contract, they won't give it him, he'll need to go. What's all this "loan" stuff being talked about? |
WOL reporting it now as well. https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/leeds-uniteds-move-sw However, they've got something wrong... They state " initial loan with an obligation to buy at the end of the season.", then say "The deal would see Leeds pay just £1million to take James until the end of the season, with an added £9million should they wish to make the move permanent.", which indicates no obligation to buy. | ![](/images/avatars/11384.gif) |
