Also confirms what we all knew.
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2019/02/01/leeds-furious-swansea-pull-plug-
James’s agent, David Manasseh, told Telegraph Sport: “Swansea made no attempt to keep the player and at the first sign of money they couldn’t show him the door quickly enough. It is very disappointing but the player is philosophical about it.”
James had been Bielsa’s No 1 target in January and is likely to return for him in the summer. Championship leaders Leeds face second-placed Norwich at Elland Road on Saturday.

Lots of 'ifs and buts' in there.
F*ck Leeds and f*ck Dan James's agent.
The irony of an agent taking the moral high ground ...... |  |

Don't you agree it sums us up though?
He didn't want to go, he was told to go for money, then screwed around. We are a complete clusterf*ck. I dread to think how bad we are in the sh*t financially. | | | |

Not sure.
Was willing to keep an open mind about the yanks until the summer, but I genuinely worry for our short and long term future while they are still here. | | | |

I agree we're a clusterf*ck but James agent has no business passing judgement on us and surely you can see the irony in this quote:
“Swansea made no attempt to keep the player and at the first sign of money they couldn’t show him the door quickly enough. ” | |

As many have said they have shown their hand over this fiasco.
Also the article states Dan won’t be signing a new contract if offered- will be gone in the summer if that is the case.
Edit : as pointed out no direct quote from agent regarding not signing a new contract [Post edited 1 Feb 2019 11:13]

Percy's article in the Telegraph is heavily biased mind you. No mention of conditionality re the £10m, and it seems that even the loan fee was to be staggered with just £750K up front. I don't disagree, however, that James may have been messed around regarding a new contract at Swansea. | | | |

Where have you seen that too?
Could see an influx of the younger lot wanting out, Oli being the main one in my mind.
Edit - Sorry, just saw that, no direct quote off agent though regarding that. [Post edited 1 Feb 2019 10:26]

So he won't sign a new contract if offered then? Doesn't look like it's going to be offered anyway, you arrogant agent f*ckwit. So, ok have your client on 18 months on rubbish wages then, unless another club rescues him with a less shit offer. And, Dan, if you don't play or do the business on the pitch, end up back in the U23, and leeds do get promoted and set their sights higher, then you will just disappear off everyones radar and maybe end up not getting a game at Shrewsbury again.
Settle down lad, grow up, try and negotiate a better deal on the back of this shambles, prove you can actually deliver on the pitch now you've had your 15 minutes of fame. We're all behind you. Shove it down the throats of the hierarchy, both the ones that pushed you out and the ones that dragged you back. Do your job well and better opportunities will come. Maybe even with us. Who knows? The fans will back you 100% now if you can swallow this.
I certainly now believe we will sell anything and anyone at the first whiff of cash. These yanks have at least been fully outed now. |  |

Don't understand why you're all jumping on the agent, he seems to make it pretty clear the situation we already knew. The yanks will sell anyone if the chance arises.
James is most likely the lowest paid player in the first team squad, why shouldnt he ask for pay the same as Rodon and Roberts?
Blame the board, not the player. | |

You can't just blame anyone or everyone here
You have to look at things very deeply and try to understand our situation. And let's not use this discussion like other childish fans will to remind us all about our recent transfer mistakes which have cost us. We all know that already.
But on the face of what happened yesterday there's a precarious financial position and Dan James' agent couldn't give a monkey's chuff about that. He'll be a wealthy man regardless of whether we go out of business or not, so frankly he can shove his threats right up his arse.
The club have a 70m black hole to fill over the next two seasons and that should be a worry to everyone.
So the harsh reality is when any offer comes in we need to take it seriously because we have our clubs future riding on it.
No one really wanted Dan to go, especially the old Board Dan didn't want to go initially until it was so far gone he'd made the decision, but now he's pissed off as well.
It's a sorry state of affairs but we should all just be realistic that hard decisions have had to be made and we're clearly not out of the woods yet.
Jenkins and Co have an even greater affinity to our youth team and they spent most of yesterday trying to discuss with the Americans to reconsider.
Pray to god they did and now Dan is coming home.
His agent words are very unwelcome and he's pissed off he didn't pick up another ten per cent for doing next to nothing.
Dan needs to get back into the fold as quickly as possible, get back on that horse and realise SCFC very much want him, we're just trying to do the right thing by everyone including the future of the club.
Now let's get on with those play off aspirations, as summed up by Van Der Hoorn in an interview no one has mentioned on here. |  |

Absolutely, but there has to be a balance between financial prudence and not desecrating the squad. If Jenkins somehow stopped this, then all credit to him, at least he can see there’s a balance to be struck. The Americans seem to be looking at it from a purely financial stand point. | | | |

None of us know the true ins and outs but the Yanks are taking the pi$$ out of the fans, Jenkins, and the players.
The sooner they go the better, or we will carry on going downhill.

They're also the ones responsible for a huge financial black hole so it's nothing like as black and white as you're making it.
Alright for fans to want this, that or the other but there's serious amounts of money at play here which you and others seem incapable of understanding. | |

A few weeks ago you said we would have money to spend in window, you then said the club wanted James to stay, they didn't, his agent confirmed that, yesterday we lost three big earners and brought no replacements in, and you talk about play off aspirations?
You say to look at things deeply and to try and understand our situation, I'm not sure you understand it at the moment? | | | |
| James Agent Speaks - Sums us up on 11:20 - Feb 1 with 5010 views | STID2017 |
Tough on James and the agent.
The deal isn't done until it's done.
Anyway, if Leeds are such a big club, why didn't they come in with a big cash offer as soon as the window opened ?
Whatever our part, Leeds should look at the pathetic way they do business.

A few weeks ago I interpreted a sentence from Potter, which if you remember, you corrected me.
That's all that was. Nothing more, nothing less. It wasn't a foregone conclusion we wouldn't be bringing anyone in as Potter has stated.
But we're still in a precarious position and we've still got a lot of money going out each month. That's our problem here. No one really pays that much attention to it.
The club didn't want him to go as has ultimately been proved but there's always a massive decision to be made when actual money is on the table.
The ideals or the necessity - which one do you choose. Clearly the fans choose the ideals but if they had their way every time we'd have no football club, surely you understand that?
It's a serious situation which has caused division in the boardroom and there's no right or wrong answer. Him coming back causes us more problems off the field than him going. Surely you can understand that too?
So who will be proved to be ultimately right, well no one, because the decision was made by everyone in the end not to sign the deal off.
I talk about play off hopes because I'm a lifelong fan, that's what we do. Van Der Hoorn talks about play off hopes because he's speaking to Potter and that's what Potter is telling him and that's why he's close to agreeing a new contract.
It's up to you what you want to believe or how deeply you want to look at things but I'm not the enemy here mate.
I'm just someone who's prepared to evaluate both sides of an argument to find some sense. | |

Ohhh.
Let's make Beaky the hero here.
We're in this fuggin financial mess because of Beaky, Shagger, Dimwit and the other selling b'stards.
They're the c*nts who financially mismanaged the club in the Prem.
They 're the c*nts who sold us out to a hedge fund manager.
They lied and cheated their way through the sale, even using club funds for their sales brochure, sorry film.
Still lying constantly to the fan base now.
They all need to be in Court for what they did to the Trust.
Unfortunately, we can't do anything to them legally for splitting the fanbase, but I'm hoping that this FUBAR transfer window shows everyone the light and we all start to band together again
Oh
