What a dickhead. Clearly thinks he's too good for Leeds.

Yep............all that talk last week about wanting to stay at Leeds

Now he has turned down a 3 year deal........the greedy sod!!!!!

Fup him - at the moment only Coventry are interested in him and that woupld be a sideways move at best - yet another mercenary on the lines of Hasselbaink, Yeboah, Cantona - difference is, that Beckford is not fit to lace any of the afore mentioneds boots.

The lad had chance to gain legendary status at Leeds, at 25, surely he could have signed and given at least a year or two more service if the club didn't move on.

Give it a couple of years and Leeds will be at a higher level than him.

Im totally gutted at this news, God knows who we will get in to replace him.

He wont be the first or the last to leave now, I just hope Grayson has a replacement in mind who is somewhere near as good as him.

It depends on the offer made to him tbh

He's got every right to turn down any offer that isn't in his best interests. He's done well for Leeds, I for one, am grateful for that. If he goes elsewhere now I wish him all the luck in the world, he's already earned a place in Leeds United history imo

To be honest I reckon he had made his mind up after the reaction he got by the Leeds fans at the Walsall match.

He's not hated Sky blue

.........but it was just last week he said he wanted to stop at Leeds and then he turns the 3 year contract down.
Nobody can blame any player for wanting to play at a higher level,but why do they pledge their future and then see the pound signs after???

Yes but presumably,they must be offering a bit more than Bates???
We all know hes an old miser,but he had to stick to realistic wages which reflect league 1 football.
Good luck to Jermaine anyway,wherever he starts the season

I doubt he'd go to Coventry, not known as a club with any sort of ambition. If he leaves Leeds, he's going somewhere with more of a reputation than the sky blues imo

Westwood is certainly a promising player and surprised he wasn't snapped up by a Premiership team last year. Refreshing to see what teams like Burnly, Stoke and Hull have achived in recent seasons without splashing lots of money. Look at the farce at QPR, one of the richest clubs outside the top flight, yet have come nowhere close to challenging in the Championship and are now on their 5th manager in 2 years. Things certainly seemed to have settled at Coventry since relegation from the Premiership and they have avoided the capitulation of a further drop suffered by Man City, Sheff Weds, Leeds, Charlton, Norwich and Southampton have in recent years.

Still gutted over the 1987 FA Cup Semi Final though

I blame Brendan Ormsby
