Ironically I was checking this site earlier and saw the rumour regarding Austin to Norwich for £3m. Whether this was made up I'm not sure but I have a friend who is a Norwich fan who said the same rumour to me about a week ago!

I would hope we don't sell Rudy as it gives out the total wrong image that yet again another captain has left and we no longer apparently a selling club! I have seen some comments about snap their hands off for £3m which for me is ridiculous! As much as good new signings are important, retaining your best players is just as if not more important. I bet there were many Liverpool fans licking their lips at potentially £50m for Suarez and now look at the lad and what he's doing! And rosco the same. imagine where we'd be if we took £2.5m for him from boro?

No amount of money (within reason) for your top players is worth it when your sitting in the playoffs approaching January. Selling ruddy would be a nightmare for me. I just hope the other poster and my mate have caught wind of a dodgy rumour and there's nothing in it!

MOT!

Couldn't agree more mate! Completely baffles me that people would take money for one of our best players. Teams are hardly ever able to replace good players at this level with anything better. Some folk are never happy. Keep our skipper! MOT

It doesn't take a lot to come up with this rumour off the top of your head. The first thing Norwich/Leeds fans think is who is going from Leeds to Norwich and Austin and McCormack are the only two realistic answers. It's an obvious one to make up so I wouldn't take it seriously unless reported somewhere reputable. I trust the club not to sell our best players now

I hope the 2nd response is correct and is does seem feasible - like I said, I'm hoping this rumour is just dead in the water! And agree with the first response that teams find it hard to replace players. especially there best players.

i would take 3 mil for Austin . we would get a better player for less than that. Austin as been quite good for us but there's too many times he will attempt to shoot when he's not really in the right position or shaped correctly to take the shot on and he rushes it, especially towards the back end of the match when we are putting pressure on.

A better player than rudy for less than 3 mil, you should send your scouting cv to mcd we could do with you on the pay roll.
please name one realistic target for that money who can pass tackle, leed by example and boss a midfield as he can.
