Certainly hope Radz does not sell Clarke. £10m and to Spurs would boil my blood. He's worth double but even at that price don't want him sold. If Radz sells him, Radz may need to reconsider personally attending Elland Road for home games.

So do i. Be a quick profit for him but will not lower the wage bill much for incoming. With a bit of luck we will sell or offload all the fringe players first. Worried me a bit when Bielsa said Edmondson and Shacks will play a bigger part next season and did not mention Clarke. Hope i am just being a pessimist.

Should the undesirable sale happen, it sends out the wrong message to the remaining youth who may feel disheartened plus I'd expect a furious backlash from fans.

If Clarke is sold that will show a total lack of ambition from the Owner, but we have been here before with him. Finishing third was a great achievement on the previous season, but we all know a lack of investment and a bit of additional quality cost us the big prize, it was the Manager who nearly got us up on a shoestring. We need to keep our best players and add better players, such as Gayle or Abraham or we will never get out of this League. I also think that Bielsa won't stay if he sees the crown jewels being sold off. The next few weeks will tell us what our Owner is really all about. I hope he shows us that he is as desperate to get this great Club promoted as we all are.

I’m not sure it sends out a bad signal to the youth at all. They’re being given the chance of first team action and then the club won’t get in the way of a big move, and bigger salary, if that want it. It’s not like the transfer is to another Championship club for peanuts, it’s to a Champions League club.

Whilst I don’t think we should sell for £10m and he’s clearly worth more, I don’t think it’s a bad signal to the youth.

George you just know we will sell Clarke, we always seem to sell below the players true value but get quoted silly money for most British based players we try to buy. We are a selling club, even seen KP now linked to Norwich. Are we back to being a feeder club for them.

Georgie, Clarke is only worth what someone will pay for him this summer if he really wants to go! It’s the start of the summer and an article linking him with Spurs will flush out any other bidders. James is available, has more of an actual track record in the championship than Clarke, his departure will set a bit of a guideline.

Not sure how getting a move to a club in the Champions league final sends out the wrong message to the youth team! These are young lads looking to secure their footballing and financial futures!

And finally Radz “ May need to reconsider personally attending Elland Road for home games”! Is he going to get milk shaked? He is a dad, who brings his son to matches wearing the kit! Not sure that kind of talk does anything but encourage the lunatic fringe!

Let’s keep calm guys, it’s going to be a long hot summer!

Mezzer, which clubs in the world aren’t selling clubs? Man City, Real, Barcelona, even those sometimes have no choice if a player wants to go!

Blimey, Champ Manager is taling a bashing at the moment. All the UEFA 'B' licenced poster are typing furiously at the minute

I am in the keep calm and carry on

We aren't far away guys, and so much closer to the promised land than when we were -15 points in league one

I absolutely loved our football last season

If we had had Wood, Beckford or McCormack from previous seasons upfront, we would have gone up

If we had spent the Bamford £7m on a Gayle loan, we would have gone up

If we had the Gary Monk set-piece strategy, we would have gone up

We are almost there. Let the powers that be tweak it. I ain't the sharpest tool in the box but I can see we are doing lots of things really well
(I would rather be a Leeds fan than a Bolton fan at the moment)

Georgie, you can relax, the Crown Jewels have never been sold! So we are told although there was an attempt to steal them in 1671!
