BIG NEWS IN TEN MINUTES-MIKELE SIGNS 3 YR DEAL(on june1st)

[marcusopp]

It Actually is

Royals reach agreement with QPR to sign Mikele Leigertwood on a three-year permanent deal when the transfer window reopens on Wed 1st June!

I'm delighted with this.
I've always been the first to mock the teams who are composed mainly of loanees, so it's good that we'll have just the one now, and hopefully we can get him permanently too (can't see blackburn changing their mind).
Legs has been great for us, the rock we've been in need of for ages, and a great role model for Jem.

3 year deal, substantial fee

[Rex]

Having spoken to him around 6 weeks ago this was technically an open secret. Great news though.

[Svlad Cjelli]

Wonder if the fee changes depending on what division we're in next season.

[Who Moved The Goalposts?]

3 year deal, substantial fee

Not substantial enough to affect their ticket prices next year though.

[1871 Royal]

To be honest this is great news especially if we dont go up!

1 defeat in 22, if that carries onto next year 2 defeats in 44 games ....... another record breaking season ......?

[Super Royals]

Great News!!!

[royalp-we]

In for the cause, he's earnt it

Would expect some conditional clause, given the timing of the agreement.

Preumaby a similar clause on his wages, too.

Also, Kebe is training today!

[Gordons Cumming]

I'd have prefered news that Kebe is fit to play.

[readingbedding]

He is.

[Gordons Cumming]

He is.

Is he?

Sauce?

[ZacNaloen]

He's training today, it's right there on the official twitter feed.

[DOYLERSAROYALER]

word is theres a Royals press conference at 1pm on BBRB and Kebe situ may become a lot clearer.

..then there will be 2nd Royals press conference at 1.15pm on BBC Radio Wales, when the Kebe situation will become far more vague!

[1871 Royal]
