Use our rumours form to send us leeds transfer rumours.

26 Oct 2012 22:09:18
Noticed a lot of other fans on this site recently, before and after last friday nights antics at Hillsbrough. Surely these "fans" of other teams should be on their own rumours page instead of snooping around on ours, I know we're a huge club with a great fan base and there is always a conversation going on, but seriously how jealous of us can these people be? Support your own team you tinpot fans! We all love Leeds, including you!! Big game tomorrow fingers and toes crossed for a huge morale boosting 3 points! Come on Leeds, PickersLUFC!!

Some people in football as well as life more generally just need something to hate.( my need is filled by bates at the moment!) If Leeds did not exist there would be a leeds shaped hole in peoples lives which they would have to fill by some other means. Take it as a back handed compliment.
ps- When bates goes i will go back to hating anchovies on my pizza!

Why are their so few tickets sold for the saints clash. If we win we are in the quarters and tickets are cheap. Pull your finger out fans and lets back our boys.
F**k the morons {Ed013's Note - Due to so many games in a short period of time and xmas isn't that far away! Don't forget that loads of Leeds fans travel from everywhere and would much prefer to watch tomorrows game. Before you ask, yes I will be at the Saints game, but it should have been made cheaper to bring more in!}

Believable2 Unbelievable1

Im going to tomorrows game has anyone got a clue what the attendance might be?I hope its roaring and loud as fu*k com on you whites MOT

Agree1 Disagree2

My guess based on away following, sunny morning,takeover imminent, Ryan Hall to make an appearance, is 23,243.

At least Zigic will NOT be playing against us, for some reason he's prolific when we play Brum.

Is is just me or do you not provide proof of funds first and not near the end? Back to front if you ask me. Anyway lets hope it's before xmas so we can have a good transfer window in January. MOT

Think after all the rumours it's just a way of saying there is definitely money there to buy the club and the deal is almost signed.

I believe there is a wealthy backer or backers that's why it has taken so long only my opinion time will tell

I may be reading too much into this but Salem petal says in the official statement that their aim is to provide investment for a sustainable leeds, and with bates always calling it an investment, I wonder is it a full takeover at all.

Believable1 Unbelievable16

I thought they said it was a full takeover already

Good luck to the boys on Saturday, will be a tough game but still winable if we get going from the start. Also good news from the OS regards the takeover, were VERY close so no more ' the deal is dead' rubbish, this is going to happen. So a good win on Saturday, some cash for the manager for players and we ll really push on. We re LEEDS and we re loud & proud. MOT IrishWhite

Revenge for last season is just the tonic for the loyal fans, that have put up with so much over the last 5 months. I feel a good 3-0 win will get the heart going again.
COME ON YOU MIGHTY LEEDS!!

In Islam, every bit of business must follow the principles of Sharia law, they cannot just be "forgotten" about as the newspapers and rest of the media suggest. My friend who is a muslim man has backed me up on this.

But i find it funny how this appears to be yet another stumble in the takeover of our great club.

Manchester City - No problems.
QPR - No problems.
Nottingham Forrest - No problems.
Leeds United - Think of a problem and we'll make it one, for months.

Frustratingly MOT.

Believable1 Unbelievable17

Suggest you read the joint statment by Leeds and GFH on the OS Shari law does not come into it.

I'd like to know which one is lieing. Bates saying, i've not spoke to them in 2 weeks or GFH saying, we're always in contact. I like a good game of monopoly but not with my club.

Peter (now banned from being chairman of any club but we suffer) messed up!! Man U had a group of young players come through like Beckham (love to hate him but always gave his all for England) Scholes, Giggs, Neville (TIT) without mentioning any more 3 of those is a midfield and they didnt pay a penny for them and imagine in this market what it would have cost, if you say 30 mil each thats 90 but i think in this market it would be more. I always thought our midfield of 92 was the best in the league (Strachan Batty Mcallister Speed) we had (Bowyer Dacourt Batty Kewell) when challenging again and the fans were let down cos of the mismanagement of the whole club not only did we have players like Smith, (Woodgate as good as Rio and the facts dont lie... mills Woodgate Ferdinand Matteo... played 10 conceded 0 and he did it at madrid) we had a good group of young players come through and more to come like Milner(awesome) and lennon. we gambled on champions league football payed! when Liverpool didn't and lets not forget Fowler finished our top goal scorer that year and didnt want to leave! people like Seth Johnson on silly money and wanted to play but the money he was on meant he couldn't after so many games, then look at the managers? I dont care who was in charge no one could have saved us cos not one player knew if they would be there or not as the weeks went bye.. To end with I believe we need experience and hard work to get back to where the best fans and most passionate in the world belong and dont forget Leeds is a company and when buying one you want customers with a solid flow of income... assets (which would be the players and ground and facilities) so like any company im not buying it unless someone is already paying for it so lets not forget with no one customers there is no income so me you everyone WE ARE LEEDS!

Good post, very honest and to the point.

Agree7 Disagree1

I really have no idea what your point is. Are you saying Ridsdale messed up, man U had a good homegrown team, Leeds had a better team, Liverpool didn't pay for something or GFH need to look after the fans?

I'm sure you have good points individually but this is just a garbled mess. i think your teacher will be disappointed if he/she reads this.

Agree9 Disagree1

Peter risdale was chairman of leeds united PLC there was plenty of other people on the board.

Hardly a post today from leeds fans, proof wev'e lost faith

Believable0 Unbelievable13

I ve not mate... And I m pretty sure I m not alone.
We ve got some good players (Diof, Bechio, Lees, Pearce, Rudy, Bryam). We d all like a couple of top class ones, but unless you ve noticed, we have to wait till the transfer window opens to get the better ones, so personally I d rather wait.
We ve got a great manager. Yes, he s not Pepe Guardiola, but he s brutally honest, 100% committed and gets the best out of players. Personally I trust him and think he s doing a good job. We ve also got some promising youngsters coming through and players like McCormack and Somma due to come back from injury.
In addition, unless I ve missed something big, we re close to a substantial financial investment.
We ve only lost 3 all season and if we can stay within touching distance of the top by January, we ll be in a good position to push on for promotion.
So, all in all, no I ve not lost the faith and shame on you if you have.
