Hvor er PR avdelingen til klubben?

greit med et statement når det er arrestordre på en av spillerne... ?

Snodgrass is accused of parking on a pelican crossing in Glasgow's Duke Street on February 28 last year. (Parkering på gangfelt slik eg tolker det)

Djiss, og pga er det arrestordre på Snoddy?
Misbruk av ressurser i Skottland og ser eg. ::)

"He parked at a Pelican crossing??? That's disgraceful - he should be locked up and the key thrown away", says former United star Lee Bowyer in a short comment.

...han lot være å møte opp på 'et møte' om denne saken i fjor høst. Ny dato ble satt, og han lot igjen være å møte opp...

Dét var ikke smart, Robert.   :o
Men ifølge klubben 'samarbeider' han nå for å finne en løsning på saken...

Jeg tar alt dette fra hodet i øyeblikket, men tror jeg har det fra gårsdagens YEP ;)


...sånn var kilden:



A warrant has been issued for the arrest of Leeds United star Robert Snodgrass after he failed to turn up for a court appearance.
Scotland-born Snodgrass was due to attend Glasgow's Justice of the Peace Court last Thursday in connection with an alleged driving offence in the city.

Tonight a spokesman for Leeds United told the YEP that Snodgrass's non-appearance at court had been a result of a "misunderstanding."

The spokesman went on: "Robert is assisting the authorities in getting the matter resolved."

Snodgrass is accused of parking on a pelican crossing in Glasgow's Duke Street on February 28 last year.

He was originally due in court in connection with the matter last August but did not show up, leading to a warrant being issued for his arrest.

The nature of the offence, however, led prosecutors to hold back from asking the police to detain the player and he was instead instructed to attend court last Thursday.

It is understood that, following the second non-appearance, it will again be up to prosecutors to decide whether to get the police to follow through with Snodgrass's arrest or simply issue a fresh court date.

Snodgrass has become a firm favourite with Leeds supporters since he joined the Whites from Scottish club Livingston in the summer of 2008.

He made national sporting headlines earlier this month after scoring at Premier League giants Arsenal in the third round of the FA Cup

Leeds United: I'm here to stay â€" Snodgrass

Robert Snodgrass reiterated his commitment to a long-term future with Leeds United after rounding off a fine week with a match-winning performance at Bristol City.
Snodgrass scored one goal and created another to inspire Saturday's 2-0 win at Ashton Gate, just days after making his international debut for Scotland in Dublin.

The highly-rated winger has seen his reputation grow substantially during two-and-a-half seasons at Elland Road, and awareness of his talent has grown as a result of both his performances in the Championship and his elevation to Scotland's national squad.

United avoided any major bids for the former Livingston youngster in the January transfer window but his contribution to Leeds' Championship term has raised fears that Snodgrass will be one of several players who attract outside interest in the summer if the club fail to win promotion to the Premier League.

But the 23-year-old, whose contract at Elland Road runs until 2013, insisted he would be loyal to Leeds, saying: "They gave me my chance down here.

"If the club ever wanted to get rid of me then that would be up to them but I've got a contract here and I'm staying put."

Manager Simon Grayson admitted that the pull of Premier League football would be strong for a player of Snodgrass' stock but claimed United's prominent league position â€" the club lie sixth after their victory at Bristol City â€" should convince his squad that Leeds have the potential to regain a place in the top flight.

"I want them all to fulfil their ambitions here," Grayson said. "I want to fulfil my ambition as a manager here too."

Snoddy already a wanted man - Matteo

It’s not uncommon to hear people say that Premier League clubs will soon start taking an interest in Robert Snodgrass.

I’m sorry to report that they’re looking at him already.

Any scout worth his salt must have taken up that trail months ago. If not, they’d be better off in a different line of employment.

Whenever I go to Elland Road, I see the eyes and ears of Manchester United, Liverpool and the like.

Scouts are no more than faces in the crowd to the average supporter but after 20-odd years in the game, you come to recognise some of these guys.

You ask who they’re watching and I’d be lying if I said that Snodgrass hasn’t been mentioned.

To be honest, it’s no great secret and no great surprise. Anyone who thinks he is flying under the radar is more than a little naive.

The same was true of Fabian Delph, the last expensive asset sold by Leeds United. I lost count of the number of people who turned up at Elland Road to see what the fuss was about and you knew that someone with money would test the water eventually. You also knew that, with Leeds in League One, the chances of convincing Delph that he was better off staying put were extremely thin. He always came across as a good, down-to-earth lad but that’s neither here nor there when Aston Villa are laying a contract in front of him.

Leeds have an advantage with Snodgrass in as much as they are now a Championship club knocking on the door of the Premier League. Delph’s situation was different. It was pointless and disingenuous to tell him that Leeds were a top-flight side in the making. I’m not denying that the club had that aura and potential but it would have taken a massive leap of faith for a teenager with his ability to turn Villa down and stay in the League One. At the very least, Delph was looking at two more seasons before getting the chance to play in the Premier League with Leeds.

When that transfer happened, the majority of supporters seemed to accept it as fair and inevitable. No-one could have accused Delph of making a mistake. You should never be happy to lose such a gifted teenager but the reason he went with everyone’s blessing was because the move made sense to all parties. Leeds earned handsomely, Villa got a prodigy and Delph moved on to one of the finest leagues in the world. There’s no real loser in that equation.

Were Snodgrass to depart Elland Road this summer - and you can be sure that his future will be a constant topic of conversation from here on - I doubt we’d see the same level of tolerance. As Leeds discovered last season, players as outrageously talented as Delph are not essential in League One. You can cope without them. But when you get to the bridge between the Championship and the Premier League, you really need all the quality you can get.

United cannot afford to lose Snodgrass and if that means upping his wages or addressing the length of his contract then the club should start speaking to him promptly. From what I know of the lad, he won’t be angling for a move and he won’t be causing mischief. He looks pretty settled. But Leeds might as well accept that plenty of people outside Elland Road can cause mischief for him if his contractual situation allows it.

Should an offer from the Premier League appeal to him? I’m probably the wrong person to ask. I became so attached to Leeds United that I’d have found it very hard, perhaps impossible, to walk away against the club’s wishes. As I’ve said before, the two biggest transfers of my career were transfers I didn’t want to make. I didn’t want to leave Liverpool and I didn’t want to leave Leeds. But not every player will see my point. I was extremely lucky to end up at two clubs where I felt like I belonged.

And at the end of the day, they gave me Premiership football. Ever better than that, Leeds took me into the Champions League. You might think it’s a cliche to say that footballers want to reach the highest level of competition but you’d be wrong. If anything, it’s the definition of ambition. Towards the end of my days as a player, when I dropped into the Championship with Stoke City, I really felt the difference. It was a fast, dramatic league but it wasn’t the Premiership. You’re very much aware that you’re sitting away from the top table. In all honestly, I’d have found struggled in the prime of my career to stay at that level for any serious length of time.

It’s worth remembering that Snodgrass and the entire Leeds squad have already had a sniff of the Premier League - against Arsenal this season and at Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur last season. It only ever leaves you wanting more of the same. And there’s another strand to this argument - players invariably get better with better players around them. It’s the obvious way of maximising your potential. That was true of me and it’s been true of many others. Look at the performances of Charlie Adam since he was thrown into the Premier League with Blackpool.

As a result of playing in the Champions League, I’d say I improved by 50 per cent. That’s not an exaggeration. In games against Real Madrid, Barcelona and AC Milan, you were coming up against the cream of European football. I took the view that if I didn’t improve my consistency and my quality, I’d end up getting embarrassed. My intensity increased and my workrate went through the roof. In our 3-3 draw against Lazio at Elland Road, I spent half the time kicking Fabrizio Ravanelli around the pitch. Eventually, Eirik Bakke collared me and said ‘for God’s sake, will you calm down.’ I think that’s what they call ‘in the zone’.

I get the feeling that if you launched Snodgrass into a Champions League match tomorrow, he’d fair pretty well. I say that on the basis that as he’s climbed through the leagues and into the Scotland squad, he’s made a marked improvement with every step. That’s by far the best indication of a player’s ability; moreso than brilliant goals. With one club or another, he’ll go a long way in this game.

You could say that about a few of the lads at Leeds. For me, Jonny Howson has been as good as anyone this season. There’s another example of someone who needs a chance in the long-term to mix it with elite professionals. And having played for the England Under-21s last week, I doubt whether Howson is setting himself the goal of remaining in the Championship for the rest of his career. He wouldn’t be very ambitious if he is.

In my heart, I hope that the likes of him and Snodgrass will see their futures at Elland Road regardless of how this season ends. In my head, I can see clubs piling in if Leeds aren’t a Premier League side by the end of May. Promotion is their best defence against outside interest. Failing that, they must make sure their most vital players are contracted to the hilt. Every footballer has his price. In certain cases, that price should be set ridiculously high.
