Use our rumours form to send us leeds transfer rumours.

End of last season every man and his dog was saying Morrison was sh*t, now there all moaning that he's going! ffs let BMcD get on with the joband let's get behind him & the team he choose's! also, all this negativity about Hunt, he may not be prolific, but how much work does he do for the team in assists? What would Beckford done without Bechio?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

It's not just how good or bad Morrison is, it's all the money tied up in him. If he had been sold we could have reinvested the cash. We have got rid of bechhio and got nothing to show for it. I just hope that the wages are for somebody better than Hunt, personally I would rather see poleon start

Agree0 Disagree0

Totally agree mate - well said mot

Agree0 Disagree0

Yes it's not that at all, had we had £2 million for Becchio then great, but we all but swapped him for a load of crap, it's just more of the same by Leeds, time and time again, really bad business. The idea in football is that if you sell someone for a fee, you should actually get better in!

Agree0 Disagree0

Well if he gets his game together at Millwall won't that put him in the shop window for us to sell? Maybe £2m? I'd also heard from a physio who works at TA that the guy had an attitude problem & didn't get on with a lot of the team!

Agree0 Disagree0

There will probably be an agreed fee in place. And if not he might improve over the year and come back a better player.

Agree0 Disagree0

McCormack, Smith and Poleon up front next season. Power, height and pace. McCormack playing off the other two. Always positive. ALWAYS LEEDS!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Sorry mate but that is no where near good enough to keep us up next season. Sorry to be so blunt but its true.

Agree0 Disagree0

I was really dispondent with us not bringing a host of players in to get us to the promised land. Then I took a step back & looked at our youths.
Alex Cairns GK - 20
Charlie Taylor LB - 19
Lewis Turner CB- 20
Tom Lees CB - 22
Zach Thompson RB - 20
Aidan White LM - 21
Chris Dawson CM - 18
Ross Killock DM - 18
Alex Mowatt CM - 18
Sam Byram RM - 19
Dominic Poleon CF - 19

A full team of very decent young players with the best manager in the league for developing talent. And with arguably the best acadamy in the league many more to come.
It might take a few years but suddenly my glass is half full & the clouds are not so grey.

Hope the are all given their chance, instead of the usual wave of short term loans we're used to.

Agree0 Disagree0

Parkin Walters Lenighan Nathan Turner another 4 promising players 3 attackingly minded 1 more defensive

Agree0 Disagree0

At last people have highlighted the future of our club, I've said many times Leeds have never been cash rich.

We have success based on our youth players & shrewd transfer policies we've always had to sell to fund success.

With BMD we have a manager that will deliver.

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Jun 2013 14:13:54
Its obvious that we have no money to spend this season. where does that leave us? Good job we have some promissing youth players ready to step up.

Lenighan, Dawson, Killock, Cairns, Turner twins, Poleon, Byram and Lees. These need to be given pre season to show what they can do. Who knows we could have a very young starting 11 next season who are talented and hungry "you never win anything with kids" remember ;)

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Young lad mowett looks even better, him and dawson in middle will be the future

Agree0 Disagree0

Watch out for lewis walters he's another that I can see mcdermott playing during pre season

Agree0 Disagree0

I think it is important that we do not carried away with the impact that the youth players will have this season. I agree that players such as Dawson, Poleon etc. should be integrated into the matchday squad but we should not be reliant upon them week in week out. Before people starting quoting the impact of Byram, I feel that he is the exception that proved the rule. Dawson has promise but needs to develop physically (which will come in time), as I watched him being tossed around like a rag doll in the game against Derby last year

Agree0 Disagree0

Luke Parkin is a shout for being given a chance, I believe he was top scorer in the development squad.

Agree0 Disagree0

Even though we have persons running the club who do t give a s*** about leeds. Look on the bright side
No warnock
Got mcd
Got good youth
Got some good players from last year
Getting a few more from mcd wheeling and dealing
Mcd plays good attacking football.
F. The owners. Follow the team!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Exactly, well said!

Agree0 Disagree0

I love leeds facts. FACTOID

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Jun 2013 17:47:00
Well said Aus! I recon BMcD at the helm Will get us in the top six, even without any New players!

Agree0 Disagree0

Of course they give a sh*t about Leeds person, just because they are not filthy rich don't mean they don't care. They have had to sort out the financial mess Bates left (yes he's to blame remember ) and now they are trying to rebuild the club whilst adhering to the new fair play rules. They have lowered the ticket prices and restructered the membership which fans wanted. This is probably going to cost them if the fans don't return. Fans need to get back supporting the team and the new owners if we are to move forward, I think you will find our manager said the same, EVERYONE should be going in the same direction. So stop slagging off the owners and do as McD and be positive for a change.

FACT. just wnated to write FACT loads of other clueless people do, so why not have a bash yourself

Believable0 Unbelievable0

You spelt FACT beautifully however you messed up 'wanted'. I feel this is another strong football rumour word,
i. e Byram is 'wanted' by such and such.
Bit of a schoolboy error FACT! Oh yes.

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Jun 2013 11:48:18
Just can't believe what McD is doing with the squad. Even the players we are linked with don't seem up to the task. We will be lucky to finish above 16th at this rate. Hopefully it just won't turn out to be a relegation scrap. You can all say I am pessimistic and negative but to be honest you are all thinking it, what stand out players do we have apart from byram? This season could be terrible. GFH OUT! Also if Leeds go up I would quite happily run around the Leeds ring road naked covered in sauce.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Brown or red?

Agree0 Disagree0

Youre pessimistic
A team is a team. A group of players that perform, badly or well together. We may not have the best players in the championship but we sure as hell haven't the worst. Even with brainless owners we will do better this year
Buck up mate and wait and see and keep your bloody clothes on for f sake

Agree0 Disagree0

Im not thinking it, I believe every year that we will go up, and fans should aswell

Agree0 Disagree0

If your so confidant that we won't go up give ed your contact details. The sauce should be an ultimate symbol of Leeds shame along the lines of "I'm Mr Negative & I Love Fergie" written in RED sauce & you should do a lap of dis honour at our first home game in the prem league.

Agree0 Disagree0

It's not GFH we need out its negative losers like you. We all need to move in the same direction says B McD so if you don't want to jog on and support someone else

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Jun 2013 11:36:42
Is this loved up Morrison the same player that everyone was slagging off at the end of last season. We are Leeds and that will never change!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

29 Jun 2013 10:54:44
As it stands this would be my starting team Kenny Cb Pearce CbLees Cb Peliter RWB Byram LWB Warnock Midd Thompson Midd Green Att Midd Dawson Att Smith Att McCormack. No way would that side go down in fact with Hunt and poelon adding pace that side may have a go at play offs with Diouf to come on as well.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Please god no, no offence but 5 at the back reeks of desperation, we would be exploited in the midfield

Agree0 Disagree0

That team would defo be fighting relegation. you can't just put two yound lads like that straight in midfield we would just get out played

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Jun 2013 10:32:12
The best news I've heard for years bmd is going nowhere, his words, at last someone at Leeds pure at heart, forget bates and and the rest of the muppets with bmd on the shop floor that's the best thing to happen to Leeds for a long time regardless of sighnings and will keep me believing in the white shirt for another season,, let's bring this season on all we really need need is 2, 3 new faces with the right manager and that's a play off place f. k the board we will do it without them.

The year reading went up and Hunt scored 14 goals not bad for a player who can't score. Morrison didn't look like having 14 shots last year never mind goals. The injury has taken a yard off pace from Morrison as the Millwall fans will see. He relied on his running power which has now gone, The lad spent a long time in the lower divisions on crap pitches, which looks to have taken its toll as 29 is when u should be at your peak. Not on the slide. Hunt on the other hand will add pace to the attack he can run for days and has a fantastic leap on him. He will make chances for Ross as well, And matt smith will turn out to be the freebie off the summer (if we get 2 wingers ) One rumour I've heard is Cardiff going to bid in the region off 3. 5 million for Byram.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

You're thinking of Stephen Hunt mate.

Agree0 Disagree0

How much longer is Me Bates going to take us for mugs, he is probably sitting in his office at Elland Road with his 2 new buddies from GFC or GFH, it hardly matters there name aka Bates, laughing at us. Since he has been running the club it has been the same year after year, now I am not a fan who has unrealistic dreams of spending millions to reach the promised land, just a realistic transfer policy, if that means selling a player to improve the squad the so be it. But to lose your top goals other and end up with no one to replace him and not 1 pound nite, that beggars belief, and wreaks of incompetence. So to all the fans who think he ain't in charge, wake up and smell the coffee!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Before this shower of s--t arrived at elland rd I said the fans who were so desperate for them to takeover should be careful what they wished for, these persons will take us straight into administration because they can't pay the bills and are lending money left right and centre. I take no pleasure is saying I told you so but administration is inevitable and I also said that we would end up been the next Portsmouth, we just can't compete with any other team in this division, even huddersfield have more cash than us, how can that be, its because they know how to run a football club properly, these persons we've got have not got a clue, you have to ask yourself why buy a club if you don't have the working capital to make it a success.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

So why don't we open a bank at ER for gfh to run he.

Agree0 Disagree0

I, m sure you have more money than these business men, don't you?

Agree0 Disagree0

And you have to say bates and the football leauge are to blame they are supposed to check these people

Agree0 Disagree0

Why don't you buy the club if you know how to run it so much?

Agree0 Disagree0

Last statement was just childish,

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Jun 2013 09:28:36
Simple question - as it stands and with the prospect of more top class players coming in looking very unlikely where are our goals gunna come from this season? Because I look at what we have and what we are probably gunna get ie Joel hunt and I just don't see many goals in this squad at all!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

29 Jun 2013 14:23:38
Simple question -as it stands will we stay up?

Agree0 Disagree0

^^^ YES!

Agree0 Disagree0

21 place finish.

29 Jun 2013 09:24:45
Clearly David haigh and is little side kick Patel are not Leeds fans and don't care bout us Leeds fans you can tell there not in it for the long run there just taking after bates false promises there just hoping for the best and they want them big money bags what palace won last season then sell for profit typical investers!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

29 Jun 2013 09:08:06
Remember the quote from nw. Morrison will be a legend at elland road and people will always say that bloody warnock signed him.

Well well neil how wrong you were.

At Least I have full faith in brian mac and honestly believe he will find some unknown gems

Believable0 Unbelievable0

29 Jun 2013 08:12:53
Fact is McD has to wheel and deal now. Big earner Morison shipped off to Millwall. These clowns must exit the club also :
Brown, Norris, Tonge, Varney and Hall! So much baggage in midfield.
Ins : Rowe, Murphy, Hunt, Wabara

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Lust are as bad as bates that's why

Agree0 Disagree0

Think that's the wrong post to reply to but well said ^^^^

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Jun 2013 06:00:39
Remember when Patel said we won't spend silly money? More like any money! Remember when Patel said we want to re-engage fans? Erm, when does that happen? Remember when Papa Smurf said he will only sell to persons of financial clout? All lies. Why aren't LUST doing anything? There needs to be a fan revolt. We still have no assets. Soon there will be no goodwill.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Last thing we need is LUST sticking their nose in

Agree0 Disagree0

Lust are as bad as bates that's why

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Jun 2013 02:05:35
so first it was Ken who turned us into a joke, and now GFH have turned us into a joke? make your minds up and get off the bandwagons that internet fans and LUST make up, and start supporting the team and the manager because the only thing that's a joke about Leeds United are some of the fickle fans that support us and come up with conspiracy theories

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Well why are gfh borrowing money from one of david haigh companys why is there no money for transfers why did bates say he would only sell to a company that would take the club forward what happened to the football leauge making sure these clowns were fit and proper people

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Jun 2013 02:05:11
Morrison out Hunt and Mills in. At the end of the day Brian can only now play what's in front of him and use the tools at his disposal. We already have fair to average forwards but desperately need a stronger defence so good move.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

29 Jun 2013 01:46:26
All this negativity is strange, as a life long Leeds fan we have had our ups and downs, we sing about them every week! But Brian McD has obviously seen with or without promises that Leeds is somewhere where he wants to be! So, why don't we get behind his judgement and support our club, forget the past, we are leeds and be proud!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

28 Jun 2013 23:39:44
Anyone think Poleon could be a partner for McCormack for the season? Young, pacey and capable of hurting defences. Hunt and Smith used as impact and reserve.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

No did f*ck all in both his loan spells

Agree0 Disagree0

Thats the way I see it, especially after McD's comments about him at the end of the season, saying he could be a real asset. I'm looking forward to more of him, would also like to see what Simon Lenighan is all about.

Agree0 Disagree0

Not a chance, poleon ain't anywhere near the quality we need just yet. he will b a reserve
