Will Jimmy Bullard's arrival in Yorkshire have a knock-on effect at Leeds United?

Sportsmail report today that Fabian Delph is the man Fulham want to replace Jimmy Bullard.

The midfielder joined Hull last week and Fulham are reportedly keen to bring Delph in as his replacement.

Fulham are prepaed to offer at least the £5million received for Bullard, with some suggestions that they are prepared to go up to £8million to land England's latest teenager sensation Delph.

Ken Bates has already revealed that he has already turned down two offers for Delph during the transfer-window, making a sly reference to "petty cash". Surely most Leeds fans will rate Delph being worth considerably more than the £8million bandied about.

Meanwhile, Simon Grayson is expected to appoint his assistant-manager next week and former Leeds fringe-man Glynn Snodin is favourite for the job.

Snodin was performing a dual-coaching role with West Ham and Northern Ireland. He has been on gardening-leave from the Hammers since Gianfranco Zola arrived at Upton Park earlier in the season.
