Horsfield deal fell through Thu, Feb 01 2007 18:44
Sheffield United boss Neil Warnock has revealed that striker Geoff Horsfield chose to join Leicester over Celtic on deadline day.
The striker eventually ended up at Leicester until the end of the season and he was joined out of the Bramall Lane door by Kevan Hurst, who has joined S****horpe again until the end of the season.
Warnock told the club's website: "Geoff was happy. He spoke to Leicester on a number of occasions - he was actually very close to going to Celtic but something happened behind the scenes, I don't know what. Geoff has gone to Leicester to try and get them up the league table."
Hello all
As a new poster and a long time lurker i feel your pain with the takeover. Hang in there.
My opinion this is the type of player you need in the Championship league, a true gritty forward.He will end up our top scorer at the end of the season.
