[Taylor]

I think Everton will reject the bid tomorrow

 

[Blue Coop]

BBC sport say they understand the bid will be rejected, that's as solid info as any, imo.

I didn't say last season; and I was 1k out, it was 1993, you managed 13,667 in the premier league at home to southampton 4 dec 1993, fickle feckers as I said. Can remember in moyes's 1 bad year, your lot were forever ringing into century radio saying he had stayed too long and should be sacked, short memories some of you scousers seem to have, and if you boo lescott you just prove how fickle you are once again

Short memory you have as well you smarmy prat .

After relegation to the Second Division in 1963, the future looked bleak with a record low home attendance of 8,015 against Swindon Town in January 1965.

I wonder which team that could be . City perhaps ?

Just thought I'd drop in to put another big mouth straight . :o)

how many times have you said you won't be back on here - you really are obsessed aren't you? You scousers come on here shouting the odds, but you should be interested in your own club really shouldn't you? It's pathetically sad, and frankly very boring

I think Everton will reject the bid tomorrow

Everton are set to reject a second bid from Manchester City for defender Joleon Lescott, BBC Sport understands.

The Goodison Park side confirmed on Wednesday that City had improved on the £15m offer they made for the 27-year-old England defender last week.

City have signed Roque Santa Cruz, Carlos Tevez and Emmanuel Adebayor and are top heavy in attack despite adding defender Kolo Toure to their squad.

They recently failed with a bid to sign Chelsea centre-back John Terry.

City had a £30m offer rejected recently by the Blues while Terry pledged his future to the London club last week.

606: DEBATE
Will Lescott resist the lure of City?
It had been suggested that Everton would have been prepared to do business if Nedum Onuoha was part of a new deal.

However, City secured Onuoha to a new five-year deal at Eastlands on Wednesday.

Lescott joined Everton for £5m from Wolves in 2006 and has been an integral part of David Moyes' successful side, which finished fifth last season.

Toffees boss Moyes will also be reluctant to weaken further in central defence, with Lescott's fellow England international Phil Jagielka not expected to return until November after knee surgery

Yeah, up to Lescott now.

I think City should back in and bid £25m

big thing is though, your game was in the premier league, ours was in division 2, speaks big volumes that.

Everton reject £19m Manchester City bid for Lescott

Manchester City had no sooner completed the signing of Kolo Touré from Arsenal last night than a fresh £19 million bid for Joleon Lescott, the Everton defender, was submitted.

Touré became City's fifth significant signing of the summer, with the £14 million deal taking the club's spending spree over the past eight weeks to almost £100 million.

The Ivory Coast defender, 28, has signed a four-year contract that will more than double his wages to £90,000 a week, although City may have their work cut out trying to lure their sixth and final target, with Everton immediately rejecting the improved offer for Lescott out of hand.

David Moyes, the Everton manager, believes that Lescott is worth about £30 million - similar to what Manchester United paid Leeds United for Rio Ferdinand in 2002 - and will not consider selling the England defender unless City get close to that valuation, although the situation may come to a head if the player decides to submit a transfer request
Lescott is thought to be reluctant to do that, not least because of how it would be perceived by Everton's supporters, but the defender is known to want to talk to City.<a class="postlink" href="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/football/article6732456.ece" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/ ... 732456.ece</a>

fuck it off right now , not worth wasting time over , no way will people be happy if we offer 30 million , we could easily enough get someone else

Yeah, up to Lescott now.

I think City should back in and bid £25m

I don't we should stop at £19m and let Lescott push the issue further if he wishes.

Otherwise, look elsewhere.

It coming up to the point were a transfer request is needed.....

Maybe this is what Everton want so they can say that they had to sell an unhappy player
