Manchester United have blocked our move for 19 year old super kid Kieran Richardson.

The story was little more than a rumour on Friday afternoon, but Lee today confirmed he has tried to bring him to the club.  

He told the press.. 

"I've inquired about Richardson, he's got pace and skill and is a player I admire. But they are not prepared to let him out on loan"

It is encouraging to see us targeting players like Richardson. You would have thought our "arrangement" with Man Utd would have swung there decision. Some fans may now begin to question our little arrangement with the Red Devils, especially because of the fact we are not seeing the benefit of it on the pitch.
