BBC reporting that we are close to 'multi million £ investment which includes the buying back of Elland Road'. No mention of who's behind it. Who gives a flying f#ck! Just please let this happen.
LUFCMatt
I care who is behind it we could get another Bates!
01 Aug 2013 22:45:28
Tonight Thursday 22 30. Adam Pope & Phil Hay both tweeting news of a big investment coming into Leeds inc a buy back of Elland Road. Early days, although first indications say its not Red Bull. Should be more news Friday! MOT
01 Aug 2013 21:28:57
Watching Swansea tonight. Gone up the leagues in ten years.
Some quality players, yes GFH can't build Rome in a day.
Without the ambition to try you never will.
Leeds should of gone for it. We needed laFondre, Mackay Stevens, mills and co. Swansea 20000 capacity and look what they have done. We aren't a big team anymore because we've stopped thinking we can be again
Settle down - all over the radio tonight that we have bought Elland Road back. Yippee| :o)
Ok, so we go for it, over spend our budget and put us financially in the red, relying on money from promotion to balance the books, then if promotion doesn't happen what happens then? Sounds oh so familiar! U don't put all your eggs in one basket!
01 Aug 2013 20:33:10
How close are we to getting some new faces in and some of our fringe players out! We need a number 9! Kevin Doyle clearly isn't a league one player and belongs in the championship or higher. Clubs around us are signing players left right and centre worth a couple of million so why can't we. Roger Johnson is another Wolves player who doesn't belong in league one! Snap him up and we have two decent signings! A couple of loanees from the Prem needing 1st team football and we are guaranteed promoted! Time to act before we lose out!

Cannot wait for Saturday! MOTD!

Just to clear it up about the radio Leeds coverage, I spoke to the sports editor for radio Leeds today, and he said the game would only be broadcast on fm and not on digital or on line, I don't want people who live outside signal area to try tuning in on line at 3 o clock and get some 70s music, be prepared and subscribe to lutv, but only if you have computer, because I pads are not set up for lutv, if you rely on I pad you will have to go and buy a lap top, someone has not thought this through.
01 Aug 2013 19:00:50
Any one seen the live 92 thing on a certain tv channel any one know what happened wi Leeds any thing interesting?
Quick chat with legend dominic matteo the lads training in the background cameras weren't even aloud to peek lol STRICT oh brrrrriiiiaaaaannnn LEEDS LEEDS LEEDS MOT!
Matteo said we needs 2 or three new players to compete this season and we need to make ellend road a fortress this season that's all really we were number 39 at around 12. 5 this morning.
01 Aug 2013 16:21:29
Both turner twins have been released on loan to Chester again. also the Leeds United website has been updated. looks good!

to put it bluntly, anybody who writes off our season before it even starts, or has the nerve to slag off GFH and the new chairman is either:
- An impatient so and so with no grasp on reality
- A LUST member
- Or to quote our ex chairman, a moron
HAVE SOME FAITH
Woody (cue the Buzz comments from the pessimists)
I agree people need to be patient, we r getting there steady away, not living beyond our means!
FFs Give it a rest Ken your Fired!
01 Aug 2013 20:03:02
Stanners how can you agree when he's not prepared to right off this season as one of building foundations for a patient long term approach?ps you missed realist off your list
With this team we will finish mid table need 2 or 3 big names 2 join if we want to go up
Why should he right it off? Maybe the guy is optimistic but also a realist and knows it might not happen over night but would love it if it did! Why do people have to take a big bite out of Leeds utd and spit out the positives and enjoy the negatives? Just all pull together for God sake.
Did you notice he uses the word impatient?! That means he realizes it might take time so he wants everyone to be patient aswell! The more I look at your comment the less it makes sense, u haven't understood what he truly means by his post
But what's the point in writing it off, just take the ride and see where it takes us, you never know in football do you? might end up being up there if we hit the ground running, saturday the perfect place to start
01 Aug 2013 15:42:13
De ridder released by saints worth a punt on a free and we need wingers cum on bmd MOT. Jp
That would be a brilliant signing.
Crmd
That would b a shocking signing, what has he ever done? sat on the subs bench that's what.
01 Aug 2013 14:35:11
Steve De Ridder on a free sign him up please leeds!
Terrible player
01 Aug 2013 14:04:05
i know its frustrating but we have to remember we are just an average championship club and spend accordingly.
when you see charlie austin going to qpr, prob the best finisher in league then you realise how hard it will ever be to get out of division. yes I know qpr get parachute payment but still going for it.
we still don't even have one out and out goalscorer at the club.
ross is not and never will be prolific. matt smith will be great as a sub, he could be new lee chapman but its an if.
i wish bmd all the luck and I know we will give people a good game but unless gfh strike a miracle investor we surely can't challenge. shrew leeds
01 Aug 2013 20:04:32
Most people need to get control we have all been frustrated, over the years we are starting again now properly as we should have done years ago, this is a new beginning and a fresh start it all takes time and I for one welcome a 2 year plan steady the ship move in the right direction bmd is a quality manager good at this we should get behind him, it's his team playing his football now, let's give him a go, to be honest I think we have a team that can get into the play offs now. relegation battles won't come into it in my view we have to many good things going on, it's all about the team. how many premier ship scalps did we take last year?
"we are just an average championship club"
Are we f^^k, where have you been all your life?
We are a world class club with history and support to prove it!
Okay circumstances leave us where we are today, but if you think we are an average championship club you must be about 12 years old?
"unless gfh strike a miracle investor we surely can't challenge. shrew leeds"
er. did you not see the smurf has gone?
did you not see colin has gone?
We CAN now believe again, so stop the negativity!
Look lads I understand your replies but I wasnt been negative entirely.
im saying we just haven't invested enough to seriously challenge at the moment. I like a gamble so how many of you would say put 500. 00 on leeds to get to play offs as we are now? I wouldn't and I have the money.
also when I said we are an average championship club I ment where we are at present team wise/finance wise.
we are top 6 when it comes to fans in size in whole country. shrew leeds
Also i'm there every week so how am I not supporting the team.
be constructive in replies.
we are average team at the moment.
how can you say otherwise
01 Aug 2013 13:15:47
When bates was with leeds you moan about the board, you 'boycott' games for the 'good of the club' so get him out, he leaves you moan about the board! Give GFH and BmD a change having even played a domestic game this season yet! MOT
TsG
Agree Mate, I wish everyone else could be patient and all pull in the same direction aswell
LUST members for you
I think you need to cut some slack here, most of us that boycotted due to bates are 'coming home' why do you think there's 30, 500 forecast for saturday?
W'd like to think we helped the change, but it doesn't matter any more.
We ALL stand together.
01 Aug 2013 10:50:56
Just as we all suspected! So maybe there is some truth in the Bahraini prince rumour? And Chinese billionaire rumours?
The man who controls cash-strapped Leeds United has admitted he is actively looking to sell a controlling stake in the Yorkshire club within 18 months.
“It’s never been a secret that GFH wants to bring in external investment, ” he said. “The priority is to find the right kind of investors, and if that happens quickly then so be it. ”
StewboLUFC
Mate what chinese billionaire rumour?
To 1st reply:
You probably haven't been catching up with the rumours. Keep on searching for Steve Tappin (I think) in rumours see what comes up
Cheers mate. MOT
Capacity crowd at Elland Road, that means I won't get parked and have to stand in a long line for my burger / beer ect and it will take ages to get out at the end. Also I won't be able to talk on my mobile phone for most of the match, because of all the noise. Oh I feel a Boycott coming on its GFH's fault. lol
01 Aug 2013 10:33:31
All summer lufc have had to upgrade the web site and they decide to do it 3 days from our first home game why?
Contracts with web publishers or marketing companies
Now they can take off all of the Bates stuff as they have severed ties with him at last
Because they know it would upset all the moaners. ?
Why not?
I smell a conspiracy
I reckon bates, murdoch and the king of masakaland behind it.
Boycott the games until we know why!
Well i'm going to boycott the boycott, and have a meeting about having a meeting, because there's just somethin not right about all this. I mean why would Bates sell and not ruin us completely, because isn't that what he was after doin? Has anyone seen him? Has anyone seen Lord Lucan, or that other person who fell off his boat, has anyone seen that gadge from Seaton Canoe? Did Lee Harvey Oswald shoot JFK, or was it the KGB, the Mafia or the Teamsters boss. Which block of concrete was Hoffer buried in? Did the Don really pass out brown envelopes to rival managers? Do bears really s*** in the woods. Is BMcD the man to lead us back, Do GFH have any dosh, do our players have any conads for a major assault on promotion, does Jenna Jameson have A Levels?
Only time will tell, it will all come out in the wash.
You may ask yourself what is this person going on about? Answere = Absolutely nothing.
The majority of posts on hear are just that-----Absolutely Nothing
Give BMcD, GFH, The Team a chance, you may well get a surprise, but then you may not.
After all, we are Leeds United. March on Together, forever.
Maybe doing it 3 days before the season starts so that well I dunno maybe it can be online for the season tarting. That's obviously the best time to do it
Crmd
"Well i'm going to boycott the boycott, and have a meeting about having a meeting, because there's just somethin not right about all this. "
Well I think we should organise a meeting to plan all the meetings for the season and see what can be done about getting Bates re-instated.
Yes I am taking the piss.
Would be nice to have a totally new website appear on saturday with the first headline:
Capacity crowd at Elland Road see Leeds WIN!!
01 Aug 2013 09:35:21
who thinks its worth trying to sign vicente.
Might be onto something there. 29 games for Brighton chipping in 5 goals. decent player.
Never gives the ball away either does vincente remember him when he use to play for valencia
01 Aug 2013 08:47:28
Looks like Rowe is going to end up at Blackburn, Bit frustrating I think the lad would have done well for us. But if we ain't got the cash to buy him then that's it.
Or won't pay the amount they were asking. I think Peterborough were wanting us to pay an over rated price for him which he was not worth
Rowe has been poor all his career we are leeds so no thank you
01 Aug 2013 07:29:16

Just done my homework, for all those people who were hoping to listen to Leeds utd live on line, on radio Leeds because you live outside of the signal area think again, contractual rights don't allow them to broadcast it on line, so looks like gfh have you by the short and curlies, its subscribe time to lutv, but like I said last night if you don't live in Leeds your not utd and they don't want to know, there statement said we have signed a 3 yr contract with tv radio Leeds because we want to give the people of Leeds a better service, sod the people who live miles away and can't receive radio Leeds, why should we be forced to subscribe, just because we don't live in Leeds we shouldn't be punished like this
London white have sent e-mail to radio leeds they got back saying all leeds utd game will be free to air on line so anyone in this country or around the world can get the games for free this was part of the deal with leeds utd so we can all relax
01 Aug 2013 05:56:27
Radio Leeds on dab so signal strength no problem. You are correct that on line broadcasts are not allowed to be free under football league rules.
"Just done my homework, for all those people who were hoping to listen to Leeds utd live on line, on radio Leeds because you live outside of the signal area think again, contractual rights don't allow them to broadcast it on line"
I said this in an earlier post, if it were possible why would anyone have subscribed to LUTV? Every time I listened in to Radio Leeds (online) they would start playing music at kick off time.
